If you read the comments, the SL65 may be running at 700bhp and unrestricted. Not sure how accurate that is, as there are two people claiming to know what is what.

Wow, it sounded amazing as the SL65 was coming by, they must've been at 300km/h or so..... :shock:

That or the extra 163lb/ft of torque that the SL has!

SLR 575 lb-ft
SL65: 738 lb-ft

This SL65 700+ HP & The SL 65 owner was sure that he can BEAT the SLR.... We also test the murcielago Vs SLR from 40 km to 260 km the lambo infront BUT after that the SLR pass & stay ahead.
Then we put the SLR Vs 911 Twin Turbo 600+ (FVD) & the porsche beat it twice
