Default Raced a Mercedes S65 AMG

Daaaam!
This was a new with a dealer tag on it Black S65 AMG sounded pretty stought, I never could race him from a stop but we did race a numer of times from 40mph and I just stayed with him till abought 60mph and then he just pulled me two car lengths, BTW I was in Auto 4WD and was braking all four loose and this sedan still pulled me, well when I got back to the office I looked on the Internet at Mecedes AMG .com and found that this S65 is a 614hp 1000ft/tq twin turbo V12 , no wonder I had trouble staying with it.
all I can say is DAAAAM!!!

Yea I want to find him again and race him from a light, I should pull him from a dead stop when I launch in 4WD, I hope.

Some of the Mercedes cars can be pretty quick. I got to drive my buddy's E55 AMG and my aunt's CL550 which were both pretty damn quick.

Yes on certain asphalt roads as this one is a little slick and remember I pull 12psi of boost and at 40mph down shift in 2nd gear is about 4000rpm where I make the most torque.
