Re: Quick SL65 Black Series predictions!

Torque side effects will be balanced out by superior tire compound and dimmensions. Rear tires of this model have contact patches some two inches wider per side and they are dedicated ultra high performance Dunlops (actually have no clue what the standard model SL65 wears).

Great, these are the figures I wanted to see.
I`m going to go knock 0.1seconds on those speed figures though.

That Hockenheimring figure looks great. With that monster torque the power weight ratio figure should be very impressive. Skidpad? should be better than 0.98.

Re: Quick SL65 Black Series predictions!

Why make a track special if it is going to be slower than way less powerful cars like GT2 and GTR around a track?

ps. I am not saying the BS will be slower, but some of the predictions are pretty weak.

1. GT2 is untouchable.
2. GT-R has yet to be tested around the ring by sports auto(don't care for Nissan's overhyped official figures)

There is a chance that hte performance might surprise. Extreme wide track and down force generated by the new aero parts and pop up spoiler should help get all the power down to the road. So there is a chance that the car might be a better performer than what we are expecting.
