Brace yourselves for some south of the border shenanigans in this clip. That’s right, we are going to the land of spicy hot cuisine and wide-open interstates for some roll racing fun. The competitors include a naturally aspirated Chevrolet Camaro LT1 (nitrous and an E85 tune) and a Tesla Model X (600-pound weight reduction) in Plaid mode. Let’s see how this shakes out. In the right lane is the Gen 6 Camaro LT1. The LT1 Package is equipped with a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 engine mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. In stock trim, the Camaro LT1 could produce 455hp Read More

This clip from Carwow features a series of 3-way drag races that border on chaos. The extreme vehicles on-hand for this extravaganza are all worthy of remembrance. Let’s get a closer look at this incredible machinery. Representing the Italians is the Lamborghini Aventador SV. With its naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine and all-wheel drive setup, the Aventador can manufacture 750hp (507 lb.-ft. of torque) and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.8-seconds. Top speed is a computer controlled 217 mph and the Aventador can crush the standing quarter-mile in 10.4-seconds @ 135 mph. Ringing the bell for Germany is Read More

by Edward Monroe We are headed out to the Showtime Dragstrip in Clearwater, Florida for some head-to-head drag racing action. The focal point of the video is a grudge match between a Hellcat swapped Plymouth Barracuda and a Tesla Model S Plaid. Obviously, the vintage Mopar has been engine swapped to a modern powertrain and control system. Supercharger and crankshaft pulleys have been upgraded to increase boost and the car is tuned to burn E85 fuel. Maximum output potential is estimated to be 850hp to the rear wheels. The Tesla is stock with the exception of some weight reduction. It Read More

Greetings gearheads, speed freaks and racing fans of every ilk. Please allow me to introduce Ollie Marriage Head of Car Testing for Top Gear Magazine. Today, Ollie will treat us to a thorough track test of what is arguably the most innovative vehicle on earth. After that, he’ll show us how badly the McMurtry Spéirling can whoop a Porsche GT3 RS in a head-to-head drag race. Sound good? Imagine virtually unlimited downforce without drag. Baffles the mind, doesn’t it? That’s exactly what the McMurtry Spéirling offers. The car utilizes powerful fans, spinning at rates as high as 23,000 RPM, to Read More

With today’s ever tightening environmental mandates and electric vehicle trends, it seems that the sun may be setting on the day of the manual transmission. On the dragstrip, automatic transmissions are just plain faster. On the street, stick shifts can be clunky and inconvenient. Nevertheless, there’s something nostalgic about a sports car with a manual gearbox. It feels a lot like freedom. Top Gear located two premier sports cars that utilize manual transmissions and put them through a bit of a celebratory test. The lucky drivers are Top Gear Editor-in-Chief Jack Rix and Deputy Editor Ollie Kew. Nothing special about Read More

Did you ever wonder what would win in a drag race between high-powered hybrids? We go across the pond for a crash course in hybrid supercar supremacy with Matt from carwow at the helm. Relish in this contest of power and speed as three of Europe’s feistiest production cars take to the track for a series of standing drag races. First up is the new (2024) Lamborghini Revuelto with its 6.5-liter V12 gas burner and a trio of electric motors. Standing alone, the mid-mounted V12 engine is capable of producing 814hp. Three electric motors bump the maximum output up to Read More

Tonight, we have competitors representing two contrasting styles of transportation. In the first lane, the car is loud and obnoxious. It is belching race gas fumes and slinging bits of burnt rubber everywhere. The exhaust note from this car is deafening. In the opposite lane is a vehicle that requires no traction optimizing burnout. There are no exhaust fumes and – most riveting – it makes virtually no sound. Let’s get a closer look at these sleds. The beautifully loud and menacing automobile is the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. It’s a C7, or seventh generation, if you are curious. Under the Read More

Some serious power is making it to the pavement when these two all-wheel drive supercars take to the interstate (in Mexico) for some high-speed low-drag shenanigans. Grab your gear and buckle-up ‘cause it’s about to get real. The 2022 Porsche 911 Turbo S is a German juggernaut. Featuring a rear-mounted twin turbocharged all-aluminum 3.7-liter flat six engine, the 911 Turbo S can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.2-seconds and blast through the quarter-mile in 10.7 seconds @ 137 mph. At a curb weight of 3,646-pounds, the Porsche 911 Turbo S has a top speed (electronically controlled) of 205 Read More

The good news? There’s going to be a drag race between two of the most powerful hybrid production vehicles on the planet. The bad news? The Porsche 918 Spyder comes in at a price tag of approximately $1.5-million. The Ferrari SF90 is no bargain either with a sticker price of $480,000. Talk about blowing up the budget. Let’s have a closer look at these two expensive cars that will be competing in a standing drag race. Matt is in the all-wheel drive Porsche 918 Spyder. Powered by a naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 – combined with a pair of electric motors Read More

Less than a decade ago there were few auto enthusiasts that wanted anything to do with an electric vehicle. They were ugly, slow and rare. Today, they are among the fastest and most sought-after vehicles on the street. This half-mile drag race features two of the most capable production cars on the planet – from a performance standpoint. They just happen to be totally electric. The Lucid Air Sapphire, manufactured in the United States, is an all-wheel drive luxury sedan that just happens to run an 8.95-second quarter-mile @ 158 mph. That’s better than any Corvette, Mustang or Hellcat model. Read More
