Hardcore donuts en banden roken in een Mercedes SLS AMG

Het Car and Driver magazine in de USA maakt leuke items. In dit geval zijn ze bezig geweest om de achterbanden van een SLS even flink op te roken. Best heftig voor een auto met een nieuwprijs (in Nederland) van zo'n kwart miljoen Euro.
Het levert wel geweldige beelden op.
To some, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a demure looking beast, but don't let the classy lines fool you. Beneath that long, elegant nose is a 6.2-liter, 563 horsepower AMG V8 that propels the top Benz to supercar status. But while the SLS can hold its own on the race track against some of the world's finest automobiles, it also has the punch to take on low-brow muscle cars at their own game.
While the folks at Car and Driver no doubt have the resources to hit the track, they instead opted to take the SLS AMG out for some donuts. We're not talking polite, single turn donuts, either. This is the kind of donut that leads to a fast trip to the tire store for some very expensive Continental ContiSportContact rubber. And just for kicks (and visual flair), the C/D gang has left its gullwing doors ajar for maximum tire smoke inhalation. Hit the jump to watch the tire-shredding action for yourself.
