Re: CLK DTM vs Ford GT

The Ford won despite misschanged second gear. This clip doesnt say much which is the fastest. Both did bad starts and the drivers need to practise more. If we study cartests we can see both are very similar in acceleration so in the end the winner depends on the driver.

EDIT: From Sportautos supertest.

Ford GT: 0 - 100 km/h 3,9 s 0 - 200 km/h 11,9 s
CLK-DTM: 0 - 100 km/h 3,9 s 0 - 200 km/h 11,8 s

I think I recognize the times for CLK-DTM and they are from Mercedes. Question solved

Anyway, the video sucked because both driver weren't good. One of them even missed a gear

Yep, it does. I`ve been looking for more CLK-DTM videos with no luck today.
I feel too lazy to look anymore.
