Normally, the peeps from Bloomberg write mainly about the analytical part of the automotive industry, not providing a very hands-on approach to the subject.
Yesterday has been different though, as Bloomberg's Jason H. Harper finally decided to spill the beans on his track time in the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series.
The ride took place on the Willow Springs International Raceway, most likely at the beginning of last month, when Mercedes-AMG brought almost their entire US lineup to the Californian circuit.
We say “ride” instead of “drive” because Harper decided to start his adventure from the passenger seat of the SLS AMG Black Series, saying that he was unfamiliar with both the track and the car.
While a car reviewer afraid of driving the car he has to review is a bit of a turn off for most people, we decided to read his entire article anyway, only to find out what we already knew: the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a fast and expensive car made for rich people who enjoy track days.
