Looks like the CL pulled a little on the CLS? Isn't the CL heavier though?

Your worst nightmare...
Nice Videos!!! I'd say race 2 was pretty close...Credit goes to the CL driver,

eventhough heavier the driver seems to know what he is doing. It's a drivers race.

Did you downshift and get on right gear for race?, if so that would explain the CL getting the advantage. Just guessing here...

from a roll the weight advantage of the cls is minimized.. the cars have equal final drive ratios and gearing so they must be pretty close from a roll...

i suspect from a dig though the cls55 to be marginally faster...
