Someone forgot to tell Ludacris about leaving the ESP on for better raction control.

His rear wheels did 0 to 60 in two seconds ... but not the rest of the car.

I saw that episode of MTV cribs when he drove it. Effer has not idea what it is, he read lines off a cue card. No one in their right minds would treat a car like that.

I saw that clip on MTV a few months ago.

I really thought he was gonna lose it on that straightaway.

I wanted him to just so I can laugh my *** off. Then I would cry for the SLR.

C-Class
the SLR needs 3,8sec form 0-100km/h, tested in the last "auto motor und sport" same time as the Porsche Carerra GT an surely an impressive feeling!

God, quit crying guys. I sense jealousy because he got to drive one, just because he is a rapper doesnt mean he doesnt know about cars or have good taste in them.

Just saw the episode of Cribs yesterday, I'd like to say I appreciate this dare devils love for speed. It's ok that he doesn't know crap about the car, but if you put into perspective, I guaranty you that atleast 75% of the people who buy an SLR won't know crap about it. Sitting on the hood? woopdeedoo, it's not like the car is going to break down or anything. For an image, everyone buys a high class car for an image, and half those people don't even go to the speeds they can! I see people with Lambo's here, and they'll go under the speed limit to make sure people turn their heads and just stare as long as possible. I agree with mjr24 and the whole jealousy part. I know yall think that luda doesn't know anything about cars, but acts like it. If you came over, I'll show you like 500 people in under 10 minutes who think they know stuff about cars, but they really dont know crap. I'll ask someone whats the fastest car that mercedes produces? They'll say the SLK 320, and that it goes 500 mph crap. Who cares what he does to the car? Its not like yall own it or anything, and plus, whatever he does to the car, won't to crap to it, like red lining it, and sitting on the hood, etc..

No, Im actually not a big fan of Luda but just because he is a rapper doesnt mean all he knows about is pimping hoes
Lets be honest, theres prob. a lot of people on this forum who dont know about their cars.

ok i aint hating but ludacris is a wack rapper...

he does pop not rap..his music is candy rap and therefore he is a ***** getting paid off other *****es.

Ludacris has no substance in his rhymes and uses his cartoon image to sell so hes one fake *** ****.

what a punk

There are alot of people on this board who dont know anything about cars and have "no class." Sounds like alot of you haters are just jealous because you will never have the opportunity/money that ludacris and these other rappers have, while you sit in your living rooms of your two family homes and tell your wives 'its ok honey we have class and they dont."

To the guy who said Ludacris cant rap, you are sadly mistaken...

What was that on the back of the car that flipped up when he braked at the end? Looked like the trunk, but it's probably some kind of aerodynamic braking mechansim.

That would be the SLR's air brake. It raises automatically when slowing down from certain speeds to create downforce. I believe it was 300 lbs. or more of downforce.
