I just like the sl65 cause its got the v12 with twin turbos, what a nasty combo. That and they are probably 200grand cheaper i think.

Great find! did the SL65 just reel in the SLR???

BTW, .3gp is the format that cell phone vids use. That's why the vid image is poor.

The ONLY way I can see the SLR getting that much of a lead and then the SL65 coming back is either the SLR let off...which I dont think he did because I believe you can hear the passenger yelling that the SL65 was coming,....OR the SL65 had a shot of juice and didnt use it til the end....which would seem HIGHLY unlikely...who the hell puts nitrous on a 200 thousand dollar benzo??? I dunno......

he's speaking broken english...he says:
"he's comming!" (x's 3 or 4)
Then when he passes him about door to door he says "Shat!/****!"
Then the other guy says: "He going too fast, huh?"
Then he says: "How much you were when he pass?"
And when the other guys answers, but the audio is too low for me to hear, even with my speakers up real loud. Just not clear enough. I'm guessing it was the speed.

My take on those cars: Not for me, I'd gladly take them, but i wouldn't go out and buy one on purpose. It's got the same ugly *** front end the rest of the mercedes do, just looks squashed.
And, Gordon Murray left Mercedes roughly because of the SLR. That alone should say enough there.

Just my 2 cents. Cool race anyhow, but i agree, no more camera phones, those bastards could have a professional movie film crew out there if they wanted. Cell phone video = unacceptable.
