I don't know what to say!
Please excuse my ignorance. I have raced an SLR and got my *** handed to me. However, I dont wanna make excuses up, I have problems with my kompressor unit and the car is now in the service center being looked at ( finally ).
But this is unbelievable! I believe this SL65 is bone stock. Can you imagine it with a renntech upgrade and LSD????

Ahmed, The SLR quit around 200Mph. You can tell, just listen to the tone of the engine. Plus the 65 had quite a good bit of length between it and the SLR at the start.
And there is no way that the SL65 is stock or Hans forgot to put in the limiter

But I didnt know the SLR was limited to 200mph!! Or did the driver just let off? Cause the SLR driver sounded surprised!
What are the torque figures between these two beasts?

'05 SL 55 Black/Black w/mods from Eurocharged/Kleemann/BuckheadImports
That'd be cool to see Treynor's SL 65 take on a Carrera GT or Enzo
How many of you think an SL 65 modded to the level of Treynor's (and derestricted) could beat a Carrera GT or Enzo from 0 to top speed?
I think the modded SL 65 would win.

Considering the 550 and 575 have practically the same performance I would have to say BS. Also, the 575 isn't going to "kill" a normal SL55 much less a Kleeman.

About the governor in the SLR, I'm pretty sure that its top speed is at 207mph. I'm not sure if it is governed at that, or if that is its actual top speed. 207mph is the fastest speed I have ever heard of Car & Driver or Road & Track getting in it.

Your father's car was delivered to me to my house before it was handed over to Arabia Motors that day!
So trust me, I know much more about that car than you think. And that was the day when I decided to save up to buy an SL AMG!
Here's the link to the story I posted about driving your dad's car.

I was wondering though Fahad..
Has your father done anything else to it since then? Cause I remember it had stock suspension, stock brakes and body kit. It did not even have the Kleemann LSD which wil lock up your rear by 60%! That is the best mod for your dad's car! Also the speed sensitive suspension.
Could you please give us some more info on the company that claims to boost the power to 1000? I need to seee it with my own eyes!
