Drag races of this magnitude are as rare as hen’s teeth. It’s not common to see the owner of a $3.8-million Bugatti willing to enter into a contest of speed – much less one willing to run against a modified Lamborghini. What’s that you ask? The Lambo price? Only about a half-million dollars (with the current mods). Made in France, the all-wheel drive Bugatti is well heeled with a mid-mounted 8.0-liter W16 engine with four turbochargers. This beast of a power plant can churn out 1,578hp and 1,180 lb.-ft. of torque at peak RPM. In stock trim, the Chiron SS Read More

This contest gives the term “big money race” a whole new meaning. You see, the machines involved are worth a fortune. Can you say sticker shock? The Bugatti comes with a sticker price of approximately $3.8-million. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Tesla Model S Plaid with the Track Pack only costs about $130K. More than your average golf cart, the Tesla Model S Plaid Track Pack comes with a top speed of 200 mph. The track Pack yields a carbon-ceramic brake package with six-piston forged front calipers, four-piston forged rear calipers and high-performance pads as well as Read More

This is it! This is the dog’s “paws” for high-performance production drag racing. Gathered here are a trio of the fastest production machines on planet earth. The first two are of the all-electric variety. The third is all forced air induction and internal combustion. Just for good measure, there’s also a souped-up two-wheeler in the mix. We begin with a closer look at the metal. The top seed has to be the Lucid, but full disclosure, the Sapphire is still in the prototype phase. The Sapphire also looks awfully generic – just like the Plaid. The Bugatti on the other Read More

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

As a former Stig from Britain’s popular automotive television show Top Gear, Ben Collins is the perfect candidate to put a $3.9-million Bugatti Chiron through its paces on street or track. Keeping Stig in check is his copilot, Andy Wallace. Andy is a driving legend with wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 24 Hours of Daytona (3 times), the 12 Hours of Sebring (2 times) and the Petit Le Mans 1,000 miles (1,600 km). Andy has been employed by Bugatti for the last 11-years. Collins will have his hands full with the Chiron Super Sport. Powered by an 8-liter quad-turbocharged W16 Read More

Ever wonder what it would be like to drag race through an Indiana corn field? Well, wonder no more. This video takes through the Semi-Final round of the 2021 Indy Airstrip Attack (presented by Indiana Corn Marketing Council and First Farmers Bank & Trust). Some of the baddest half-milers in the Midwest have shown up to claim their share of fame and fortune. Let’s drop-in on this crucial round of half-mile drag racing action. Early in the day we have a 2017 Volkswagen Golf R (1100hp) getting ready to tackle a 2011 BMW 328i (800hp). This is a battle of Read More

If you could find a Japanese sports car that could hang with most exotics, would you be interested? How about if you could buy it for a fraction of the price of your average supercar? Interested now? That’s basically what you can have in the Nissan GT-R. Climb in and let’s hit the highway (in Mexico, of course). Depending upon which version of the Nissan GT-R you choose, you can anticipate spending between $115K and $210K for an extremely capable production sports car. The all-wheel drive GT-R is powered by a twin turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine. While it is scary Read More

This well produced video brings us a contest between two very distinctive modern supercars. The backdrop is a half-mile airstrip on a cool but sunny day. Despite being bone stock, the cars are among the most capable on the planet. In the latest version of the Acura NSX, we have a hybrid powertrain. The Audi RS8 V10 Plus features a naturally aspirated (N/A) V10 engine. As different as these two vehicles are, they both look menacing in black. Ride along and we’ll see which of these premium autos is superior in dig and roll racing action. The ever-elusive 2020 Acura Read More
