With a total of 115 worldwide victories, the Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 has won the status of a racetrack legend in no time. As derived therefrom road racer , the Black Series version does but slightly heavier , podiums - and be it only in the heart - to conquer similar stormy. So authentic , as he makes believe he is in fact not always. That the developer to today's AMG boss Tobias Moers had a completely free hand , when it came to the design and execution of the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series from 2007 , is not due solely to the fact that this is the first completely in-house realized sports car project of the Mercedes- daughter was .
Sounder evidence are rather already the 115 race wins , which has been run in the short time of its existence on the world's racetracks the rebirth of the legendary SL. They speak for the enormous clout of the technical concept of the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series . The strongest evidence for the remarkable policy of the free hand, but are hidden in the proverbial details .
Especially with the recent SLS version, an original link between the street bikes SLS AMG and the racing version of the SLS AMG GT3 is according to its creator : The Black Series variant , whose name is not, as one might assume , given the images from his painting derives but from a multitude of technically very special solutions. Those which must be in a normal , always working under enormous cost pressure car designer as promises from the automotive heaven. Example? The usually the SLS cast from lightweight aluminum Fahrminium torque tube , so the little 28 -pound , 1.64 -meter-long , tube-like connection between the front or rather behind the front axle, V8 engine and placed in front of the rear axle, dual clutch transmission , against a identical in shape and dimensions , but to be able to replace significantly lighter (and much more expensive ) carbon fiber material , can only mean two things : money is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series not matter, and / or the end justifies the means.
The numbered just over 13 kg Abspeckmaßnahme is therefore all the more remarkable , as it will be even technically interested Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series owners hardly ever permitted to get the craft excellently crafted , extremely rigid housing to face - which is the aerodynamic reasons almost the whole area closed against subfloor. Nor does the fact with engine speed rotating , also made of CFRP drive shaft. This brings in all extreme load - Keyword: 631 hp and 635 Newton meters of torque - just 4,700 grams on the scale.
In its beautiful structure also invisible because painted, are also the CFRP materials of the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series , from which almost two meters long bonnet, the interior rear wall , the diagonal braces on the underbody and the aerodynamic wing work are made .
While the expensive material , sometimes as evil imitation elsewhere often can provide visual satisfaction only because the real purpose - weight reduction - was left in other places criminally overlooked , AMG executed the example of the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series the same professionalism that in international automobile racing is common - significantly below the title AMG Lightweight Performance.
Startnummern and sponsor stickers were actually an honest acknowledgment of what the black SLS is basically its aluminum structure : a race car street legal .
The fact that he has little to offer in terms of long travel activities (up to a reasonably large trunk ) and on the other side because of its sheer size even in city traffic seems rather out of place - although the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series fits thanks to its wing doors even in narrow parking spaces - It is not surprising in view of these characteristically pointed expression .
Even when leaving a parking with the engine cold it makes up stubborn tires rubbing - front through the steering conditioned , rear because of the diff - clear that the banal requirements.
