My report of the 2007 Players Run S65 RENNTECH
I drove a 2007 Black S65 Renntech'd + minor engine mods (748HP) in the run.
One thing I need to say here.... I drove my car over 3,000 miles in 6 days at very high speeds in very cold and very hot temperatures. EVERYONE on the run, including all the Murci owners were very surprised with the S65. It is such a big and heavy car, no one thought it could do what it did. We would all be cruising around 120 and 130 mph down the highway and the Lambos and Ferraris would punch it... I could keep right up and on there ***'s every time. Keep in mind I had 4 passengers and my trunk was full of luggage. Quite a few people had clutch problems, over heating problems and my temperature never fluctuated for even a second for the 3,000 miles. Never had one problem with the car and I beat the HELL out of it... HATS OFF TO MERCEDES...
We started in Calgary, Alberta on the first day and drove to the border, through Glacier National Park in Montana and then spent the night @ Big Sky Montana.
2nd Day we drove from Big Sky through Yellowstone, then down to Jackson, Wyoming and then to Salt Lake City, Utah.
3rd Day we drove from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas.
4th Day we drove from Vegas to L.A.
5th Day we had a full police escort from L.A. to the San Diego Childrens Hospital (We all donated tons of toys).
There were about 30+ cars and it was a blast. www.playersrun.com
This first video is at our pitstop in Las Vegas @ the Speedway (they let us drive indy cars). My S65 Renntech, My business partners SLR and a brand new CLK DTM (VERY VERY Rare car).
