Have you seen the one on ///M cars? Sure lose every traffic light drag.

Why not try left foot on brake, right foot on throttle method to launch?

When drag, is all about the car not the driver. Street racing is neither car or driver!! Is the quality of yr steel ball.

Street racing is bad.....race on the track

My steel ball now is soft ball. Nowadays i do rounding only at Supermarket using trolley. Yes street race is truly bad go to arcade is so much safer and is all about the driver.

I am waiting for the new game called Drive Club for PS4. They have all the AMG including the CLA 45 AMG! Can form gangs to race with other gangs all over the world online. That's the only way to race now since the SG track project is gone

It's not easy to spray gloss on small lettering. I might try black matte when I receive the car. Also contemplating to try plastic dip too.

Hi CTS,

 

I like your rear spoiler.  Can u pls provide a view from the side of the car.

 

The back portion will be great.

 

Tks

[Toffeeman]

CTS, how is it like for daily driving around town? Is it bearable? Some say good for track performance but difficult to adapt for normal daily driving.

Hi. So far daily drive is decent. Suspension can be a little hard but bearable.

 

There is a tad of lag when moving off but awesome pull after that.

 

1st 2 gears are vvvv short so need to get used to it if using manual mode.
