Wow. There's no way. My old man drives a 997 C2S Cab and even he will admit that its not as fast as my little old 3 series. No way it would run from a C63 like that.
*Note that I am in no way saying that my 3 series is "better" than a C2S Cab... That car is damn awesome.

I think those races are "for entertainment purposes only".
I'm pretty sure they're all rigged, based on the results. No way a lot of these are legit. These are obviously staged, for example:

They also have a video of a DCT M3 coupe destroying the C63.
The videos aren't staged, people bring their own cars and run. Not sure how you control that many variables. |

I mean, the C63 is an automatic. You push the pedal, and you go. I don't think anyone can seriously contend that it is SLOWER in a straight line than a C2S 997. Shifting wasn't a variable in that race. The only other thing I can think of is the car being broken, or the Merc driver sandbagging it.

The 997S is NOT a low 12 second car at 115. That what GT3s do. In the real world, they often don't make it into the 12s. They are a high 12 second car, and will trap around 110 at best.
As for the driver of the Merc, it's an auto. You stomp it and go, no driver skill needed. That leaves us with two options: MB driver sandbagging, MB broken.

Wouldn't doubt it, I mean come on, that "C63" was killed by an E92 M3 and got beaten on top end speed by an INLINE 6 when the C63 has a 6.2 liter V8. I really do call BS.
