Wow. I cant believe anyone would do that on public streets. What an idiot. There were cars all around him when he was doing that. Unbelievable.

after all those drifting lessons from Tony Brakohiapa (an instructor for the Jim Russell Racing School) he still can't do a decent donut....

if i got a dollar for the number of times he crashed his drift x mustang... i'd probably be able to afford a clk 63

....and at the end of the day. He has one. I liked the video strictly for the fact that it showed someone tossing the CLK63 around like it wasn't one. The chosen spot was a bit foolish, but then again. Rather than rip on the guy I respect what he has and think we have those high profile tards to teach us lessons. It's best as they can afford it.

I would love to see an MB exec watch that video and hear Tyson claim his ambasador status.

There is a saying
"those without the capital, get the punishment"
Rich or Poor celebrity can drive like that on the streets with no regard..the rest of you work on building your net worth so you can do the same...I don't think there is anyone that would not enjoy doing a good burnout down Sunset Blvd,,,I have but I have a nice Sheriff that pulled me over right away ,,,I did another burn out pulling away from the curb...
Cost in tickets $0.00
Having a Sheriff behind you doing a Burnout down Sunset-------$free labor on his turbo install...

Exactly!

And all the rest of you guys especially the OP sound like HATERS!

Don't act like you guys don't do triple digits on the hwy or race other cars when the opportunities arise. We're all not angels here and I guess that goes for 80 to 90% of us on this site especially AMG owners!

So get over it. Like Nitro says,he HAS ONE and You guys DON'T!!

In the Jay Leno vids Jay Leno drives all his cars especially his Blk series CLK63 the same way!! Which is very entertaining!

Here's the video of Jay. Its pretty funny watching him try to do a donut in the clk. He couldn't!!! I guess he forgot to turn off the esp. anyway, Tyson def. showed him up in that department!!!
What a ****ing sweet car!!

That car is going to be rolling on 24's in no time and the space behind the seats is perfect for a kicking sound system!

Not much different than the magazine testers who couldn't resist burning rubber in front of a camera. Why do I keep thinking he's driving it like he stole it.

If I had the CLK63 Black Series, I'd probably do the same thing! lol... But granted I wouldn't do it on a busy road, probably when no cars are around -- but yes, I would do it on public roads.

Jay Leno probably forgot to turn off ESP.

He sounds a bit dumb but I see no problem with putting the 63 through its paces like that.

Jay did the proper video, but definitely flopped on the donut attempt...Tyson should've never showed off like that on a busy street, but did do some nice donuts...badass car for sure

Some of you are so racist that it's not funny! It's to easy to sit back and judge someone that you don't know. Did anyone notice Jay trying to do a donut on a public street as well? but no one bothered to say "Jay is such a a**hole for doing a donut on a public street" Those comments above were said because of Tyson's race! Some of you need to grow up! There is no need for anymore comments because I just ended the topic!
If you have something to say about the car that is great but leave a person's race out of it.

Here's an example: The CLK 63 Black Series really lights them up and seems to be a car that you can push and it will stay in control as long as you do!

Oh yeah..... WE have nothing better to do in our lives than to play that card..... RIGHT? To be honest, I was thinking how ridiculous Jay was and looked doing a 'donut' in his loaner car!!! Jay is a 'super successful' grown-up and it just seemed stupid as hell! I have NO idea who the 'other' guy is but he seems to think he's an ambassador! (Of what, idiotic tricks)?

To be honest.... I've never understood this thing about 'doing a donut'! I've seen a Murcielago, CGT, F430 and now a CLK63BE video of 'donuts'! I use to do that with my Mom and Dad's 1964 Ford Galaxie on snow covered streets and parking lots when I was 16 years old! To me, it's always seemed like a pretty childish thing to do!

You mean to tell me somebody spends $150,000 - $450,000 on a 'supercar' and one of the things they enjoy doing or just to show off is doing 'donuts'? I guess the only thing worse I've seen is one of these beautiful, 'high-tech' machines (even an Enzo!) on a drag strip having the 'sh_t' run out of them!

Apparently, some people don't appreciate how fine of a vehicle they have their hands on because their money has come so easy! Mags
