An exciting liaison

Two ultimate asphalt eaters on four and two R?dern: The brand new GT race car Mercedes SLS AMG GT3. And the bright Italian rocket Ducati Superbike 1198 SP ? the brachialsten racer, who currently offer Affalterbach and Bologna.By Ralf Bielefeldt good three seconds up tempo 100. no 200. 10 to head to the 300 km/h, both loose. The bare figures promise ecstasy on R?dern. The ultimate high-speed quickie. I'm in Le Castellet, picture book race track in the S?den of France. Here, formula 1 teams test their racing cars, here hosted AMG Fahrerlehrg?nge called "Driving Academy". And here they face me ? the ultimate asphalt eaters on four and two R?dern. The brand new GT bolide Mercedes SLS AMG GT3. And the bright Italian rocket Ducati Superbike 1198 SP. The brachialsten racer who currently offer Affalterbach and Bologna.
Since the post goes off correctly: 170 Ducati HP encounter 168 kg empty weight. The two high speed groups occur together since November 2010. No official share marriage as once at Daimler and Chrysler, but a passionate relationship. AMG is the fleet f?r the Moto GP racing team "Ducati Corse", einschlie?lich Mercedes trucks f?r the complete racing circuit. Ducati tr?gt daf?r the AMG logo and pimpt on the other hand the travel dates and events of the fast Mercedes subsidiary. You will explore his riding boundaries K?nftig there on two R?dern k?nnen. "A perfect combination", believes Pietro Zollino, PR Manager of AMG. Customer surveys have shown that AMG K?ufer have sometimes fast Zweir?der. And vice versa. Four R?der here, two R?der there. The H?llenmaschine first to schmei?e I? "Take the 1198 SP", r?t Ducati's Marketing Director Diego Sgorbati "but brake not too much." Why? "The bike stops otherwise faster than you." Is? clear. Rotate Schl?ssel. Dr?cken the Start button. The Red beast roars. Ohrenbet?ubend. Breathtaking. Respekteinfl??end. Digital speedometer, each lot of ads and K?rzel. Electronic helpers such as switchable, eight-stage traction control DTC (Ducati traction control) to the World Superbike z?hmen. ABS does not exist.

Wild Gefl?gel: in the GT3 version dr?ckt a m?chtiger air deflector for the asphalt to the SLS AMG. Level zero the fastest two of the world burns black mark on the asphalt in doubt until the sixth gear. I start eight level. Idiot mode. 170 HP z?hmt the SP, it weighs 168 pounds. More power than the empty weight. This should be so. Rasselnd course in, some gas, rolls the beast from the pit lane. Quick look to the left rear, train freely ? from daf?r! Every second (gef?hlt), I flippere by the G?nge. The digital numbers dance. First course to 96 km/h, second up 134 third to 180. That is what beam. Still here, now there. Ludicrous. K?nner insert the sixth course in 290 things. Then the Marschflugk?rper continues to 300 km/h. I like to believe. Tried out I don't have it. Vmax hero should do such as Valentino Rossi, Italy Superbiker. The nine world champion is the new star in the Ducati Corse racing team. What can "The doctor" (Rossi's nickname) on two R?dern, makes Bernd Schneider on four R?dern. F?NF has won time Germany touring car Schumi the DTM. The record champion sporting manners has already taught the civil version. Now he has made the SLS fit f?r the track. Today, he is my guide. Schneider makes the pace, I h?nge me off. So far the plan. Getting started, I will be wired and verschn?rt. The Kopfh?rer looks like a pair Oropax with stripping. Balaclava helmet dr?ber, on, into the grossly padded bucket seat. Is me hei?. And queasy. Already the 183.260 euro expensive series SLS has 571 HP, l?uft 317 top. How are the racing version then blo?? Official data should follow in the M?rz. Then must the GT3, which like the production model of ?ber dry sump lubrication verf?gt to the "balance of performance", the technical acceptance f?r the new racing season. Fl?gelt?ren to. Dr?cken the Start button. Get G?nsehaut. What ? f?r ? a ? sound! Despite three layers in and my ears. H?llisch. Bombastic. Brutal. "Everything like in a normal car", had the mechanics still zugebr?llt. Oh well. F?RS switching by paddles on the steering wheel like the almost still apply, f?r not the idle. You put in with a small gr?nen Kn?pfchen on the wheel. "The yellow pylons marking the braking points." "In the Orange you channel", a erkl?rt me Schneider ?ber Funk.
Lightweight construction in drive: SLS AMG GT3 and Ducati 1198 SP at the Kr?ftemessen on the slopes. From round to round, I'll better, I think. The distance to Schneider is always gr??er. With Kurvenkr?ften of up to 1.0 g I rumpele ?ber of the kerbs. A g! In normal seats h?tte I me l?ngst rotated around its own axis. Only my head moves in this carbon cocoon. A little bit. The GT3 verbl?ffend playful f?hrt itself. F?r the verl?ssliche Kraft?bertragung provides a six-speed racing gearbox with sequential circuit. Right up left down. The complex electronics of the GT3 makes a small race car driver from any more or less enthusiastic driver. "We have voted the car deliberately so that everyone to deal ? from the professional to the ambitious privateer", erkl?rt me Bernd Schneider. Festgetackert in the seat are found the pace and especially the Verz?gerung not so spektakul?r me. According to ?bersetzung l?uft ?ber 300 km/h the GT3, the blades lock differential integrated in the transmission and the traction control erm?glichen brilliant acceleration.
The same is true f?r the Verz?gerung: six piston Fests?ttel front and four-piston Fests?ttel rear offer ?ppig dimensioned Bremsbel?gen space. The four discs of the racing braking system are bel?ftet, grooved and perforated. The serienm??ige ABS with special circuit voting makes the GT3 almost fool-proof. The AMG 397.460 euros. On the Stra?e, he may not drive, but after FIA GT3 regulations participate in all Sprint and endurance races. AMG builds up to the year 2011 f?r 20 copies. All 20 are sold. Who are two R?der: the Ducati SP there from 22.690 euros. With Stra?enzulassung.   Technical data * Ducati 1198 SPMercedes SLS AMG GT3
