SRT Viper Drag Racing
What's more american than a classic like the Viper on a drag strip? The latest model made by SRT has been tested for the first time on a drag race and it has covered the classic quarter mile in 11.1s at 127.3mph moved by its massive 8.4L V10 engine that produces 640hp. The time has been realized with a completely stock SRT Viper and with the use of launch control, a new feature for this car which improves the acceleration time but as you know it's not healthy for the clutch.

Bugatti Veyron vs Lamborghini LP560-4
You like to win easily, don't you, Bugatti Veyron owner? The video of today shows a matte orange Veyron racing at the air strip a white Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 during the Spring Event 2013. It's not a very balanced battle since the Veyron has nearly twice the power so we know how the race will end, but it's still cool to see a video like this, it's kinda hard to find Bugatti Veyron owners enjoying the full potentialities of this 1001hp hypercar.

McLaren 12C on a drag strip
We don't have doubts about the performance of the McLaren 12C, but it's impossible not to be surprised about this recent accomplishment on a drag strip. A completely standard 12C fitted with option light wheels, sports exhaust and carbon ceramic brakes has set a very impressive time of 10.55 seconds @ 134.56mph in the classic quarter mile, and it means that it's the second quickest road production car in the world (the record holder is still the Bugatti Veyron).
To refresh your mind, the 12C has received several upgrades over the years and now its 3.8L twin turbo V8 engine produces 616hp and 599nm, pretty surprising to know that it has beaten also the record of the Lamborghini Aventador with nearly 100hp more and the 4WD, as you know the perfect feature for a quick launch.
