What's a fluke? The d lost... Now being serious for a moment; we are talking about a drag race between two novice drivers. The d ran a 13sec 1/4 and the AMG ran a 12.8. The time for the amg quoted above was likely achieved by a professional driver; that's a .4 second difference. Insideline achieved 12.5 using their professional driver, a .3 sec difference. I'd say the driver of the AMG did okay. As the adage goes, different day, different climate, different driver, same car, same track, different results - or something like that.
