This race is run in three segments; a dig race, a 15 mph take-of, and a 40 mph take-off. In the dig race the Lexus actually gets a slight advantage out of the hole but the Mercedes-Benz quickly hawks him in. In the 15 mph rolling start the Benz is out front from the start and just pulls further away with every foot. I really don’t know why they even bothered with the 40 mph start after the GTS spanked the RCF so handily in the previous race. It is a one-sided contest, to say the least.
