Is the R8 driver taking a nap at the start? He's loosing a lot there where he should have all the advantage...

even with a good start it is hard for an R8 to argue with a block of steel that has about 500 lb/ft of torque.

in a straight line that is.

the V10 will solve that problem very easily.

Thanks.
If it was the C63 AMG I wouldn’t b the least bit surprised but the E63 Wagon?

meh....

both the C63 and the E63 are torque monsters that are fast in a staright line. with a good launch from a red light, though, they'll need enough room to hit triple digits before the E can pass and the C can pull up even.

but the R8 will look the best the whole way :hihi:

and forget about what would happen if they encountered a turn. the R would leave them like they were standing still.
