Beat a CLK 430 AMG

i know this should be in the racing stories but it too late now. Anyways, nothing exciting, beat the CLK 430 AMG off the line and pretty much through every gear, we stopes at 100, the road was a little windy for those speeds. Any ?'s, let me know.

Why the a CLK AMG should lose for CLS!!???

3 reasons:

1) He is not racing.
2) He is not racer and was not pushing.
3) You are joking us

By the way, Stock MB CLK 430 0-60 6.1 (#s by MB). I do not know what the AMG is adding in performance mods.

First off there is no such thing as an AMG clk 430...it is a CLK55 AMG 5.5 liter 342 HP and a killer 370+ lbs of torque!

no way in hell you can beat it without a supercharger in a cl-s...
damn I have friends that have raced their gs400 with 340-350 hp, dragon torque converter and TRd LSD and lost!
this thing does...5.0-5.1 0-60, it's even faster than the awesome e55...plus the wait list is 14 months for this monster.

We are right on par with the CLK430 all the way too the speed limiter.
