Dyno mode for the CLK Black

Here's a quick vid on selecting dyno mode.
If you were to dyno just by turning off the ESP, you'd get a reading 40+ rwhp below the actual number. (Yes, I have the sheet to prove it.)

As far as turning off dyno mode, the owners manual comments that only the other AMG owners need to turn the ABS and ESP back on, as "Black Series owners are widely known to be so skillful that artificial controls are superfluous".
(I might be lying about that, but do you want to read the owners manual to find out?)

Dyno mode

LOL - classic
Thx for the link Did you make this video ?

As for driving it on the street in Dyno mode...Here's a clip my buddy took in his modded E63 and you can clearly hear the car smoking the tires well into 3rd gear. We've dragged his vs mine and he is just as quick.

Yes I did, that way I can remember how to dyno mode sometime down the road when I've done my first mod.
