Interesting drag race between SLS & others
Now I know that there will be arguements but take it for what its worth. I would have loved to have seen the ZR1, Superleggera 570-4, 911 Turbo S & MP4-12C in the race just to make it more interesting.

Enjoy

11 differently modded E55s would be more interesting.

Have to respect the GT-R. The Audi also did well.

With that trap speed it appears it was about to pass up the GT-R. GT-R has a traction advantage off the line.

Yep. So true. Need to share with the BMW fanboys that apparently drive around in circles quit a bit. LOL.

It would have been neat to see price tags across the finish line too.

i was thinking that too as the LFA crossed the line at the same time as the Z06 lol... about $300k price difference?

If all you care about is 1/4 mile time, I can put together a bucket for less than 10k that will smoke everything there. Does that mean you want it? You get plenty more than 1/4 mile in what you pay.

While you ARE correct....do you really feel that the LFA is worth $300+K more than a Z06?

It would be WAY more cool with a group of modded E55's of different venders! Say EC vs Kleemann vs vrp vs evosport ect.

Kinda unrelated but the SLS AMG is in no way an SLR Mclaren "successor" when teh SLR Mclaren is faster from all speeds in a straightline.

SLR Mclaren is actually faster from a roll than a 458 Italia btw. The car is 8 years old and it's still damn fast...
