How does this happen? I'm assuming both cars are stock.

that SLR HAD to have been slowing down...if not...then man...that sl65 can't be stock, can it?

iTimmy

Maybe the guy with the SLR filled up with 87 octane?

The only logical thing I can think of (assuming the SLR didn't lift off) is nitrous.

iTimmy

Nitrous on a turbo car is usually a bad idea.

I would guess engine management upgrade on the SL65, increasing boost.

klepto

maybe its the brabus SL

maybe the SLR driver was just a pu$$y...

AMG SL65
Type: V12, Biturbo
Displacement cu in (cc): 365 (5980)
Power bhp (kW) at RPM: 604(450) / 4800
Torque lb-ft (Nm) at RPM: 738(1000) / 2000-4000
Redline at RPM: 5950

Electronically limited to 155 so I am guessing this is the brabus SL65 in the video.

Brabus offers an engine swap for the SL65.

this is not true

iTimmy

Yes it is, on most modern cars with out re-programing the engine management you'll have detention, which will dramatically shorten the life of the engine and probably end up losing hp instead of gaining. Yes, it can be done, but typically its not wise unless you have a good understanding of what your up against. A lot of turbo cars are running moderately high compression from the factory these days.

S A CHO

They are in Abu Dhabi, chances are they can blow the car up without caring.

TSXey

No it's not.

But maybe I see your point ...which seems to be that if you do it "wrong" it is a bad idea. So I agree with that.
