I think it's listed as "CLK Touring Car", different from "CLK Race Car".  Mine is the DTM (German version of NASCAR) car not the super low Le Mans GT car.

I did 1:32.3 but it didn't count because I crossed the pit exit paint line.  
I think there is a 1:31 in there if I play with the suspension.  The car still has a push entering the corner, due I think to too much front brake bias.

I coulda sworn I saw the CLK-GTR in there somewhere. There should be race & road going models. Roof mounted hood scoop, long front end. iirc, 1st - 2nd shift point is 82mph, but the top end is only 186mph.. too low to compete with the bigger supercars on long tracks. If it's modeled anything like the one in PGR2 (xbox), it's pretty impressive.

Figure out a way to keep the nose from diving so much under hard braking? I haven't been able to so far with the semi-race suspension. Still putting down good times, but I know there's at least 4 more seconds I can take off.

That's the one that used to do those spiffy backflips at LeMans right?  I guess they've flattened out that section of track since then.

FYI:

Dunno if you pad vs. wheel guys have ever noticed... but PS2 controllers have pressure sensative buttons.
