Mercedes has thanked the 2 million viewers with an exclusive view of the C 63 AMG Coupé drifting on the Laguna Seca circuit.

Driven by AMG Driving Academies Lead instructor Reinhold Renger the 6.2 liter V8 gets tail happy around the Corkscrew and with the full unedited clip you can see this was handled perfectly…..

This also shows us that the AMG Speedshift MCT seven-speed automatic ditches the torque converter in favour of a snappier wet multi-disc clutch which results in the additional control required to maintain the drift.
