Why do these dirty Diesels have to be so damn fast??

On a UK circuit, i think the derv will be the quicker car. Much lighter so power to weight isn't far off at all, will stop a lot better, and can get into and out of the corners cleanly. The big AMG will be a right handful and kill it's tyres imo. At the 'ring, where it's all high speed turns, then i could see it being closer, but unless you are doing the GP circuit at Silverstone, my monies are on the derv, sorry.....
its 300KG lighter. Care to explain this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un74WOAMZuA or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vb9evLV9TbMVX220's also couldn't get past, I went past a new shape Scooby with ease, and various other cars I thought were quick. The car is a lot faster than the big heavy german barge you give it credit for, but you seem to think its a 2 tonne S class lol.
And the fact this yoof is on about Silverstone, lol. It wouldn't be close.

Easy to explain - "Novice day". Says clearly in your video. So the fact you were going past new shape scoobies "with ease" doesn't prove much.VX220's also couldn't get past, I went past a new shape Scooby with ease, and various other cars I thought were quick.

Perhaps they were also beginners to track days?
Being careful to not crash.
Not everyone drives 10/10th.

Here's mine on a really old tune without my fuel pump upgrade.. so I'm running 40-50bhp less than then I am now.

You think my car is crap and slow and runs out of puff at 2500
I disagree.
Come to silverstone or shut up, basically.
buk buk buk :-)

That's the trouble with people like youself mate. You read everything off the internet and everything you type and believe is off stats. Scared? lol yeah s
tting myself mate.
Ill stick to what I know. And I know what my car is capable off, and what its done on 3x track days and 1 day at santa pod. Diesel 4 pots modified or not, aren't in the same league. But thanks for the laughs.

Sorry, you're going to have to help me, what are those vids showing? (all i can see a large, pretty heavy, road car, missing most of the apexes and turn in points around Oulton Park for a while. Am i mean't to see something else?) (to be fair, i fast forwarded through most of the vids hoping that at some point you'd be actually on a hot lap?)VX220's also couldn't get past, I went past a new shape Scooby with ease, and various other cars I thought were quick.

535D's still have that mystique, a chap in the pub was drunkenly telling me how my 388 bhp Mercedes CLS would be "Destroyed" by his mates 535D, I just agreed as he is an aggressive perma pissed dhead and was basically just wanting piss on my bonfire, not remotely bothered either way to be honest but I looked at its just over 100 bhp down on mine.
Would a 535D out accelerate mine ?
I've had a few of these utter pillocks before, one even claimed (quite aggressively) his remapped 530d would wipe the floor with my 996 Turbo X50 from a standing start because 'it has loads more torque so would be way faster to 100' head and was basically just wanting piss on my bonfire, not remotely bothered either way to be honest but I looked at its just over 100 bhp down on mine.Would a 535D out accelerate mine ?
