In what has become the gold standard for performance in production vehicles, Car and Driver Magazine gathered some of the most capable cars – and SUVs – for a test of acceleration and braking prowess. Have a look at the vehicles in this contest and let us know what other vehicles should have been included. Beginning at the 8:44 mark, we find the Toyota GR Supra 3.0. Equipped with a twin turbocharged inline 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine, the GR Supra can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.6-seconds and meander through the quarter-mile in 12.4-seconds @ 114 mph.

1320 Roll Race Invitational

November 9th, 2023

Held at the Raceway Park in the Midlands, the 1320 Roll Race Invitational featured outstanding street machines from throughout the Midwest. A 1,000-foot course – and 1,200-foot braking area – limited the capabilities of the vehicles on hand. Competitors were relegated to vehicles with 700 to 1,200hp. Giddy up! The first race of the video involves a Cadillac CTS-V Coupe with a manual transmission. With the capacity to lay down 700whp, the Caddy has been upgraded with a stroker motor and full bolt-ons. It has also been tuned to burn E85 fuel. The manual gearbox is stock with a triple-disc Read More

Turbo AWD Acura Integra vs. Porsche 918 Spyder – Drag Race

November 7th, 2023

This race represents auto enthusiasts from both ends of the economic spectrum. The Porsche comes in with a price tag of about $1.5-million. On the other hand, the Acura is custom built from salvage parts and aftermarket performance goodies. Safe to say, it’s worth far less than the 918. The real question is, can the modified Acura keep up with the stock Porsche on the dragstrip? The all-wheel drive 918 Spyder features a mid-mounted naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 engine and a pair of electric motors. All combined, the Spyder can generate 887hp and 944 lb.-ft. of torque. The Porsche also Read More

Three Way Drag Race – Porsche 911 vs. 700hp MK4 Supra vs. Time Attack RX-7

October 30th, 2023

This clip delivers a rare three-way drag race between a trio of capable imports. Let’s have a gander at the hardware. The MK4 Toyota Supra has been upgraded from a twin turbo system to a large single turbo setup. The 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder engine has been built with premium internals. Carbon-fiber components are plentiful in the engine bay which is loaded with aftermarket bolt-ons like an oversize throttle body and a cold air intake. The factory transmission was ditched for an 8-speed BMW gearbox. Maximum output is estimated to be 700hp at a weight of 3,306-pounds. The Time Attack 1983 Read More

September 16th, 2023

Ever seen a child land on their feet time and time again, heedless of the dangers of their precarious leaps and bounds? Now, imagine that child, all grown up and at the helm of a monster on wheels – a car not just with raw horsepower, but an entity with a remarkable ability to stick to the ground, defying almost all known laws of speed and gravity. This isn’t just a car; it’s an experience, a wild ride that blurs the lines between a race car and a street vehicle. “Always land straight, kids,” is not just a piece of Read More

Twelve cars and twenty-four riders will take part in this 50 -150 MPH roll racing affair which adopts the rules of a Cash Days event. The machines are tuned-up and the fuel tanks are topped off. Whoever can withstand the pressure will take home the money. Whoever misses a gear will go home empty handed. After a driver’s meeting, the cars take to the interstate (in Mexico). The first race is between an Audi TTRS (big turbo and a built engine) and a (factory supercharged) C7 (2014-2019) Corvette Z06 with full bolt-ons. The Corvette gets the early jump before the Read More

They combine to produce the equivalent of 887hp and 944 lb.-ft. of Read More

Today we have a three-way drag race between very serious competitors. The Porsche 911 Turbo S is a well-known model. This one is virtually stock. Another popular production model, the Audi TT has been modified to increase performance. Fewer people have been introduced to the final entry. The Koenigsegg Agera RST  is a Swedish made supercar with a sticker price of approximately $4.6-million (U.S.). The Audi TT is running a 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder engine and a massive 75-millimeter turbocharger. This brute of an Audi is capable of producing more than 1,350hp (at full boost).

Indy Airstrip Attack – 240 MPH Monsters

August 14th, 2023

It’s hopping in Indy where the SHIFT S3CTOR Half-Mile Airstrip Attack is underway. With numerous 2,000+ HP cars in attendance, we are expecting to see multiple world records fall.

A pair of unlikely competitors will square off in a contest of speed and acceleration that will initiate at 60 mph and continue until the victor reaches 160 mph. Hold on to your hats.
