Do you make a habit of getting other drivers to shake you off

I think you're probably better off shaking the merc driver off!

What's an SLS AMG?

And what Tuscan have you got?

It's the successor to the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Enjoyed a spirited drive tailgating with my 4.1 (Stage 3 race ported with GT High Output cams)

I literally burst out with laughter and had the entire room do the stare and what you laughing at moment.. awkward as not everyone understands us TVR people :P

I bullied a maserati yesterday and left him for dust up a nice long hill, ok so he was probably just holding the wheel and put foot to the floor and i had to hold on for dear life and pray the car didnt decide to kill me.. but thats the rush i enjoy

Have you had the handbrake on

I've chased one on full chat last summer with my 3.6 Tuscan on the Autobahn

Suprised that even a 4.0 Tuscan would keep with an SLS at high speed? I know power to weight will be similar I guess? But all the torque from the SLS and performance figures are something like 9.8 0-124 similar to a Tuscans 0-100....

Not doubting you just I've heard the Tuscans as all speed six's rarely push out the power the factory claim.

Hope to get a few comparisons on run to Le Mans

Well if you've got the nerve, most German cars are limited to 155ph! So you can blast pass them at that speed

I was very surprised that I was able to keep up. But I had do be in the right gear at the right time to keep up. Maybe it was just the slipstream but the way it humiliates 911s I doubt this.
Best decision to buy this Tuscan, but I'm sure it will kill me one day.

Right there with you... and safe to say, the car thought about it... twice today !!
