Default Mercedes-AMG Winter Challenge

Ok, New Beetle owners it's time to take a break from all the VW love and check out another German brand, Mercedes-AMG.

We've just launched the game we did for them. It's a winter racing game that takes you over 3 tracks and lets you choose from 3 different cars, the SL55, SLK55 and the DTM C-Class!!!!

It's a flash based game and broadband recommended.

We made the front page of http://www.autoblog.com/2005/12/23/t...g-time-waster/ today!

uhmm, fun game, i was doin really good till the expert level.

Uhmm, it's a CLK-DTM not C-class DTM (sorry i'm a benz nut and i worked at a dealer for a year and a half, i know some benz stuff). What's the use of the temp and fuel gagues?


And damn those punk kids for building snowmen on the race track, i messed up the front end of my DTM racer. hehe.

*EDIT*
Damn, the mainsite, you can buy the 208 chassis AMG model in a stripped DTM version too. Drool.............. (probably europe only, damn bastards, I WANNA SEE THAT CAR ON TOP GEAR!)

Uhm, Toad, sorry to burst your bubble but the car featured in the game IS a C-Class DTM! This is an exact spec car from the DTM racing series. It uses the CLK's four-litre V8 engine, which has been "improved" on for the series.

Your reference to the CLK-DTM is this car, which is based off of the C-Class DTM race car. FYI, there are only 2 of these in the USA!

My bad. I dind't know benz was using hte 203 chassis for the 2005 dtm season. And the widebody kit hides the rear doors really good too.

Maybe it's because I drive for a living, but I just can't help aiming for cones and snowmen.
