It's a great car on its own don't get me wrong, but compare this to the Black Series is like apple to orange to be honest, they were designed for different purposes; CLK BS' suspension components are actually far more advanced than the DTM from what I read because of the 4 years difference in R&D, overall chassis would be a different story though.. the parts aren't one-off either, just limited quantity produced through HWA, and the P900 is just on another level (although there are two BlackSeries-turned-track-version that were at an AMG PL event in Laguna Seca as track taxi a couple years back, which can easily rival with the DTM P900 on the track).

Do you have anything that isn't posted from the PL? Do share!

I'm no Black Series owner but this is the info I have...The rear suspension of the DTM start with solid billet wheel carriers/knuckles with all aluminum links with Bilstein coilovers with 856lb springs, rear 19mm H&R swaybar reinforced axles and rear brake calipers from the E63 with custom rotors with billet hats that act like spacers,


The Black Series uses standard production wheel carriers, rear brakes and KW partnered coilovers

Anything that you can post regarding

the DTM would be outstanding


I will start with the first question asked

about the DTM in this thread


Do you have any pictures / documents

relating to the fender air vents and their

role in controlled air displacement


The more information that is posted

about the DTM is a most positive step

that can only benefit the B.S. forum


It may be too early to talk about this

thread getting the sticky treatment

but...


Thank-you for stepping forward

and sharing your knowledge of the DTM


Now tell us more

In figure 6, looks to have vents to let air pass through and exit the back side of the fender flares. If this is correct, then the fender flares are functional.

Would like to see the rear fender inlets and see how the air flows also.

Thanks!

Do you have a picture of the brake ducts and carbon caliper scoops installed on the car (without the tire mounted)? Would like to see how its connected.

Do you have a picture from under the car showing how the DTM exhaust is routed out the side?

Thanks!

I was referring to the exhaust in this DTM car picture. How do they route the side exhaust? Thanks!

Yup I knew that. Just thought you might have some pictures about that particular detail. No worries.

How about the front brake air duct path for the street CLK DTM?

Thanks!
