The latest hotted-up safety car for DTM is the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series. If we’d been in a racing accident, we’re not sure we’d trust the men who stepped out of a car that’s half steroids, half Satan, but after 12 years of providing the safety cars (along with Audi) for the German touring car series, we’ll assume Mercedes-Benz knows what it’s doing.
The most powerful C-Class ever will rush to the scene with 517 horsepower, an “aerodynamically optimised light bar” and other Christmas lights, AMG Track and Aero packages and an AMG-specific exhaust.
The safety car is more powerful than the 500-horsepower Mercedes actually racing in the series, so if it weren’t for the extra weight it’s carrying, it might even beat the other cars to the scene of the accident.
