AMG is definitely fast.....I bet the R8 takes it from a dead start

Very impressed...!
I would guess SLS i about as fast as a LP560. faster then 04-07 Gallardo

Anyway, I can't wait for the SLS to race the Turbo PDK, LP550 Balboni and the 458 Italia.
That, and the McLaren MP4-12C in the mix!

^^ absolutely, but unfortunately we need to wait a while for that one. But I'm pretty sure the McLaren is at least equally fast as the Italia and LP570 SL.

not surprised. R8 V10 it's not that fast at all. Audi Quattro is only bright in corners. also when the R8 V10 lost its 4WD advantage, from a rolling start no way it'll keep up with SLS. it's a little heavier, and the R-tronic is old & slow... i say the tranny made a huge difference there.

u'll see a different video of LP550-2 walked SLS. that's a better race imo.

if you guys wanted overly dramatic and close racing wait for tog gear to do their comparison e.g. McLaren F1 vs Veyron

If you compare the SLS vs R8 V10 video with the R8 V10 vs Turbo PDK video, the SLS should be slightly faster than the Turbo. But we'll see
Never thought the LP550-2 is so much quicker than the R8 V10
