The Mercedes-AMG GT Track Series is a limited-run edition of the Black Series. It’s only for circuits and club sports events. This is the AMG’s most powerful track car.
AMG’s 55th Anniversary Celebrations include the GT Track Series. The division will produce only 55 units of this model, which is appropriate. This vehicle is available in Manufaktur Hightech Silver Magno, a unique shade with a semigloss finish. It also features red- and anthracite colored trim.
The tuned version of the 4.0-liter twin turbo V8 from the GT Black Series is under the hood. You can also find different fuel injectors. This increases the power output to 724 horsepower (540 Kilowatts) as well as 627 pound-feet (627 Newton-meters). The road-going Black Series produces 720 horsepower (537 kW) as well as 590 lbft (800 Nm)
The engine runs through a six-speed sequential Hewland HLS racing gearbox that has adjustable settings for the rear differential. The road car features a seven speed dual-clutch transmission.
The Track Series is equipped with four-way adjustable Bilstein dampers. Each damper has both a high-speed and a low-speed setting to allow rebound or compression. You can also adjust the ride height. You can also change the settings of your anti-roll bars.
Circuit-only models have carbon fiber parts for the hood and fenders, sills as well as the rear hatch and back bumper. The Black Series interior does not include any road-going luxuries. The center console is carbon and the seats are racing. This resulted in a curb weight of approximately 3,086 pounds (1.400 kilograms) compared to around 3,500 pounds (1.588 kilograms), for street-legal cars.
The hood features a large air outlet to direct hot air from the engine bay. This allows for aerodynamic adjustments for track use. This model features a unique splitter design. Louvers on the front fenders increase the downforce at front axle. Side sills are designed to direct air to the rear brakes. The adjustable upper portion of the dual-element rear wings has two elements.
The Track Series can be tuned by drivers using the motorsport-spec anti-lock brake system and traction control. There are 12 levels of adjustment, ranging from maximum assistance to off. You can also adjust the balance of the front-rear brakes. The pilot is able to access the fully-programmable Bosch DDU 11 instrument panels.
The Track Series’ safety cell is compliant with the most recent FIA standards. The vehicle’s aluminum space frame is bolted to a high-tensile roll cage made of steel. The driver is held in place by a five-point harness. A roof extraction hatch and a fire extinguisher are available.
The GT Track Series will begin deliveries in the second quarter 2022. Prices start at EUR369,000 (405,240) including applicable taxes. Buyers have the option to add a seat-and-helmet ventilation system, drinking system and a passenger safety cells.
