My estimated lap times
Motor Trend Figure-8: 22.0 sec @ 1.04 G
Nürburgring Nordschleife: 6:36
Top Gear Test Track (Power Lap): 1:12

How I estimated the lap times
Figure-8: (((((((900/(30/22)x(1677x2.20462262))/0.014)/759))/0.5)/1.33)x0.93x0.72)/1.04

Nordschleife: (20600m/(300km/h/((237m)x0.3048m))x(1677kg/759hp)/(1.33g)x0.0095x1.05

This is THE ABSOLUTE MAX that a stock AMG GT Black Series can run with use of any set of street-legal tires. An average run will be around 6:46.

Power Lap: (((3532lb+75kg)/759hp)x((1.75mi)x12)x0.72

Next Generation Mercedes Benz AMG GT plus hybrid "930hp" FOUR WHEEL DRIVE Black Series?

Mercedes Benz sitting in the corner whilst everyone else seemingly talking about sexy Italian and English mid engined monsters! LOL! That'll be corrected!😉

Road and Track's results from Monticello Motor Club

You should NEVER underestimate Mercedes Benz AMG. I learned that lesson when the DTM touring cars were circulating track's, a longtime ago. Every week (then) reading the exploits of the works drivers, Bernd Schneider religiously in Autosport.

I get the deal with Porsche, I really do. But individually, I'll take a Mercedes Benz. And we did.

This "badboi" is creeping up the ranks. A silent killer! LOL!

Here are the laptimes of the Black Series, the Huracan STO and the gt3 pdk, with some acceleration data. You can see everything in the 3 videos (check the last video to see the laptimes). Spoiler:

-Black Series: 1.20.916 (just 0.2 behind the Huayra, 0.8 faster than the SF90)
-gt3: 1.22.7
-STO: 1.23.7

847hp at the crankshaft!

Quote>"In an interview with Road & Track, Mercedes's head of the Top End Vehicle Group, Philipp Schiemer, said he expects the V-8 engine to stick around for a decade or so.

"I think there will be a future, yes," Schiemer, who oversees AMG, Maybach, and the G-Class said. "I think for the next ten years we will see the V-8s, for sure."

TEN years? That's exceptionally good news!

Quote>"Mercedes has acquired a British electric motor start-up as the German carmaker seeks to strengthen its technology with the aim of being ready to sell only battery-powered vehicles by the end of the decade.

Yasa, spun out of Oxford university in 2009, manufactures next-generation electric motors for performance cars, and counts Ferrari and other supercar brands among its customers."

Actually Koenigsegg too for the Regera. It didn't half get on my nerves when people incorrectly stated Rimac hybrid when they manufactured the T shaped battery NOT the electric motors.

Anyway this is HUGE news. Mercedes already stated they will not be pursuing any new hybrid research and development for their production cars.

A deadly serious move.

oh no, he took delivery

Merc AMG GT BS Dragy acceleration figures air temp 20 deg
0-100km/h........3.97sec (bad launch tarmac quality rubbish)
100-200km/h... 5.63sec
200-300km/h....17.72 sec
The 200-300km/h is somewhat slow but given it's got 800kg of downforce at 320km/h it would have 500-600kg at approx 250-260km/h which slows it down considerably not unlike the Senna above 280km/h...

Gebhardt from SportAuto is improving 6:52.5 at the Nurb AMG GT BS

must have a look at nissan gtr nismo best thing ever

Hi Honda Haters, long time no see.

Check this badass Honda out, kicking ass hard and it looks a lot sexier than the other 2 boring boars from Datsun and Porker.
