On the bright side, there are a few new diamonds in the rough, who weren't here before

No way! Porsche RS Spyder all the way. I love it when the LMP2 guys take the overall win over Audi and their barge, I mean LMP1.

the fact remains that someone who owns a 335 has no business here unless he also owns a mercedes. oh yeah, why dont i go register on some bmw forum and post under the e36 m3 forum.

i honestly dont care what you say about mb vs bmw, one fact remains that mercedes currently beats out bmw on the nurburgring, take bmw's best and pit it against the best that mb has to offer, for the street, that is.

you totally missed the point. these numbers are testament to the car's engineering and ability. Mb seems to be ontop of the game right now

I think it's called F1 racing and it is topped by no other racing form.

LOL yea....17 yr old McLaren F1 with M powered engine = 1 yr old CLK BlackSeries...what a shocker

sure MB is on top....oh wait...the Nissan R35 GT-R is faster around the Ring than the CLK Black Series. the new ZR1 Vette is also faster. Both are cheaper to buy than the CLK Black Series.

you can surely go to e36 M3 forums, but with your attitude you will probably get banned the first day.

yea...run and operated by team McLaren in Britain. it's called McLaren-Mercedes, not Mercedes-McLaren. unlike McLaren-Mercedes relationship BMW actually now controls BMW-Sauber team. they're only 12 pts behind McLaren in this year's constructor's championship btw in just two year. much improved after parting with Williams.

The DTM mainly appeals to the German market whereas the other racing series are worldwide. So who effing cares about them. And the DTM cars are nowhere near what their roadgoing brethren are. GT cars are much closer.

Owned? Right, I owned you. You are proof that it doesn't take class (or brains for that matter) to own a Mercedes.

Sorry, no offense, I just post this for my buddy

He sure DOES alot like you...typical BMW Driver

You DO know MB only builds the engines, right? Right? What you just said is "McLaren is better at F1 racing than BMW". What a tool.

ok... well the srt10 viper beats all of them, and their engineering team is backed by mercedes. and somebody wisely chimed in that the F1 was 17 years old, dont forget a million dollars! so is there any particular reason why BMW isnt higher up the list than MB? anyone else with more GTR and ZR1 comments? oh well since those are faster than MB's then i guess that BMW is too... what a bunch of idiots. BMW sucks

Your "higher up the list" comment is subjective because there are a lot other factors that make people rate production cars over another. In racing it's a different story - first to the finish line wins. It also depends on who you are racing. Most people who buy these cars will never wring 70 or even 60 percent out of them... what's your point?

Instead of throwing numbers you saw on the internet out there, why don't you learn how to construct a cohesive argument.




BTW BMW was building their F1 engines in-house strictly as an exercise, while until 2004 Mercedes had Ilmor build it for them.

I can always rely on the C63 forums for a nice lunchtime laugh. Some of you guys are PATHETIC.

The C63 spun and traction control killed his launch. The Jag got a perfect launch since t/c didn't come on. The C63 passed him once he caught traction. End of story.

Not many people caught that... that's the problem... then it went from explaining the factors that make that happen to who's parents are going to hell or not.

I almost never see this kind of crap on the regular W204 forums...

It's a C63 Forum exclusive!

All forums have their share of stupidity, but I think this section takes the cake.

Stop blowing smoke wen you dont know, In every professional racing form where both raced head to head, back by the manufacture BMW has been spanked by MB.

Yeah, they dont race MB in the real DTM anymore because they were spanked by MB, BMW only races in the two liter class now.

I can't help the fact that MB doesn't have a big enough investment / good enough technology to race except in a couple of small classes.
