Both the CLK-GTR and the CLK-GTR Supersport were faster unrestircted than that unrestricted.

Also that car is old news, but as Rusty said, one hell of a car and I wouldn't (unlike eliseracer) call it boring. But thats just my own opinion.

Unrestricted and unrestricted?

 

[Dave A]

Yes thats what I said, the CLK-GTR can go faster than the CLK-DTM when both are unrestricted. However both the CLK-GTR and CLK-DTM are restricted to 199Mph which I think is a bit pointless.

Well, they aren't for the engine. Those are for the rear brakes, and are very functional. Even though the front brakes take the brunt of the work in any car, the rear brakes do get hot. So, they are functional, if a bit overkill for a road car.

Pointless? Nobody puts their car that fast anyways.

yeah I guess that does make it pontless.

I know what they are MEANT for, but if you actually got the chance to see one up close you would see they are fake, it is merely aesthetic.

I might be wrong but isn't the CLK GTR road car geared to 195mph so it would be difficult to get any faster

 

[Dave A]

The CLK-GTR road car was limited to 199Mph, the race car might have been geared for 195Mph but I know the road cars were supposed to be capable of around 220-225mph with the limiter removed.

 

[Jacks]

Oh thanks, I think it was geared to 195mph on project gotham racing 2 and thats why i thought it was in real life.
