Tonight, we have an unlikely roll out between a Honda and a Corvette. These two cars are about as different as daylight and dark. The Chevy is bone stock and the Honda has been modified in a serious manner. Buckle-up, this is gonna be a wild one.

A fun sports car, the S2000 was nothing to write home about when it came to performance. This guy yanked the factory motor and installed a stock single cam F22 Read More

It’s being billed as the loudest drag race in the history of the United Kingdom. On the agenda is a series of quarter-mile drags between four high-powered supercars with Gintani (open) exhaust – that means no mufflers and no cats! You will not believe the machinery on hand for this supercar showdown. Massively underpowered in this field, the rear engine, rear-wheel drive Porsche 911 GT3 is powered by a naturally aspirated all-aluminum 4.0-liter V6 engine that can make 502hp.

Those two factors alone make for an interesting affair. Here are the machines: The all-wheel drive Bugatti Chiron Super Sport features a 1,600hp 8.0-liter quad turbo W16 engine (that’s 16-cylinders and four turbochargers). All that power is sent to the wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The 4,550-pound Chiron SS can accelerate Read More
