Arrow My SL63 AMG (R231) On The Nurburgring

A week ago myself and a mate drove over to Germany for a Lap of the incredible Nurburgring Nordschleife, for my SL63 AMGs first Euro road trip

As some of you will know, I have previously taken both of my CLS's in the past and missed taking the G55 for obvious reasons. The video below is my 2nd Lap while I was there, yes its not fast and does look even slower on video that it actually was, however video doesnt show the G-Forces, the dips and elevation changes which you fight against whilst driving.

The SL performed amazingly, always enough power on tap and did handle amazingly around all corners, The dynamic seat bolsters which inflate on one side to keep you planted actually do help! Only around Brunchen did the rear of the car feel like it was starting to oversteer.



Yes the lap is fairly slow, however I didnt have track insurance and I didnt want to take any stupid risks.

Great pics! Thanks for sharing.

From my experience with my pictures while driving aggressively on the Tail of Dragon, these cars stay so flat in the corners that it is very hard to get a static shot that represents the actual speed.
