Wrap. The instructors had these cars and they were for sure not even close to stock with PP. I will post vids and listen to the sound. These things flew. Trunk completely gutted, roll-cage etc etc. What is most amazing is the peformance you can get out of the C63 on track. Nothing you can do on street even comes close to pushing the car on well maintained course...blew my mind how well it performs. That been said, I got scolded for power-sliding a turn with ESP off..

Guys, here are some links to youTube videos I uploaded. Sorry about the quality of some of the vids as my co-pilot had some challenges with keeping camera still. Must admit it is pretty hard to hold camera when you are been thrown around by the likes of SLS, SL63, and our very own C63 with P31s. Great time. AMG is sending each of us USB full of professional pics and in-car video with telemetry which I will post once I get it. I would highly recommend you attend Europe academy as they do things that they won't simply do in the US version.

I think I answered or at least tried to get answers to the questions in the other thread. Kindda hard to grab the AMG rep between runs without been a pest. They were very open to questions and suggestions. When I told him that we hated 255s he sat me down at his PC and sent off email to product lead on C63 and reconfirmed that 255s will just not cut it moving forward. I think i got to most of the questions posted.

Thanks for your hard work and the info. It is good news that the BS version of the C63 will likely happened, but I am still unsure about the 5.5 TT due to carbon build up... Maybe I am just worry about it a little too much.
