This group activity took place in the streets of old Mexico during the wee hours between evening and morning. That doesn’t prevent these competitors from performing at optimum levels. You see, these are prime street racing conditions. Let’s have a look at the machines. The twin turbo Dodge Viper is a bit of a Frankenstein. Garage-built by the owner, this snake has the best of everybody. The engine is built by Late Model Engines (LME) and the sequentially shifted transmission is put together by Calvo Motorsports.

Oh, it’s about to get real on the streets of Mexico tonight. These purpose-built roll racers are tuned and topped off with race gas for an evening of high revving roll racing action on the interstate. Import and domestic supercars run amuck in this 1,000HP+ supercar shootout. First up tonight is a RobTuned Nissan GT-R making 1,300hp. This twin turbo all-wheel drive beast is taking on an Audi R8 that has also been outfitted with a twin turbo setup (Dallas Performance). The R8 is claiming 1,400hp. This should be a sweet race. In multiple hits, the GT-R can’t quite match Read More

Tonight, we have a throwdown between a heavily modified 2020 Ford Mustang GT and a gently modified 2012 McLaren MP4-12C. On the agenda are a pair of roll races on the street (in Mexico). The first contest will initiate at 50 mph and the second will initiate at 60 mph. Varying the starting speed should allow each competitor an equal opportunity to show their machine in the best light. The Mustang is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 engine capable of producing 460hp at the crankshaft. The 2020 version of the Mustang GT is a front-engine rear-wheel drive coupe Read More

This delightful evening of street (roll) racing kicks-off with a contest between an Audi RS 3 (a full accoutrement of aftermarket bolt-on performance goodies and an E85 tune) and a tuned McLaren 570S with a racing exhaust downpipe. This is a close race that ends with the McLaren pulling ahead by a half-car length. Race number two is between a turbocharged Chevy Silverado and a BMW 340i with unknown modifications. The Chevy spanks the Beemer in the first hit. BMW takes the second. Next, the Silverado takes on a gutted HEMI Challenger with all the bolt-ons. This time the Chevy Read More

This clip features some of the most capable supercars on the planet – in drag racing action. Let’s see what these sleek and sexy American, British, German and Italian machines can do at the dragstrip. First up is a twin turbocharged Audi R8 V10 Plus. The R8 comes from the factory with a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 engine. This one has been modified with a twin turbo kit (AMS Performance). This bad girl blasts through the quarter-mile in 8.74-seconds @ 166 mph. That’s pretty darn quick! After that, a McLaren 720S pulls up and effortlessly blows through the quarter-mile with Read More

Taking it back to the streets, these competitors are geared up to get down. Supercharged, turbocharged, naturally aspirated (N/A) and nitrous injected vehicles are well represented in this extensive field of purpose-built roll racers. Let’s hit the interstate and see what shakes out. The first contest of the evening is between a pair of Mustangs. On the left is a twin turbo car from Midnight Performance. On the right is a supercharged GT500 car upgraded with a VMP Performance (TVS) blower kit. The two pony cars pull alongside one another and the count rings out, “3-2-1”. Both cars accelerate and Read More

The British are coming! No, the British are here and they’re driving high-powered McLaren supercars. This video features a pack of modified McLaren street racers determined to conquer the streets of Texas (Mexico). In the first clash of the evening, we have a McLaren 600LT (tuned with high-flow exhaust downpipes) against a Dodge Charger Hellcat (kit of nitrous). Chalk this one up for the “Yanks” as this Hellcat on laughing gas runs away from the McLaren in a single hit. Next, the 600LT takes on a Mark V Toyota Supra (unknown mods).

This is the day that supercars took over the airstrip. At the top of the heap is the Bugatti Chiron. With a selling price of over $3 million, the Chiron is one of the most sophisticated and powerful cars ever produced. Today, we get a chance to see if this French machine can tame the latest dream-squasher to come out of “Detroit”. Boasting a 9-second quarter-mile, the stock Tesla Model S Plaid has been whipping everybody. Before the Tesla and Bugatti go at it, we have a dig race between a Porsche 911 Turbo S and the all-electric Plaid sedan. Read More
