The World's Greatest Drag Race 5

mnikhil · 10-02-2015, 11:13 AM

Basically the corvette is a beast. Thought this was relevant since the rcf, ats-v coupe and c63 were in the race this year.

1. Z06
2. Bentley GT3-R
3. AMG GT S
4. CTS-V
5. C63s
6. Cayman Gt4
7. ATS-V Coupe
8. RcF
9. Golf R
10. Miata

GTS is so sick.

AM4ZING · 10-02-2015, 11:57 AM

M4 placed 4th in the last race (Behind the Turbo S, GTR Track Edition, Jaguar XK-F 1,2,3rd respectively)

Thanks for sharing.

RedlinePSI · 10-02-2015, 12:12 PM

Not that it was a surprise anyway, but thanks for ruining the outcome with your very first words. haha

How was the 991 Turbo S not included in this? I'm not saying it would win but it would have been top 3. The turbo S is the benchmark for supercars.../thread.

Because the 991 Turbo S was not a heavily-revised or all new car for 2016. The premise of the contest is that it's only for the newest stuff, that hasn't been group tested yet.

Also, I'll take the Miata.

I find it hysterical that the Lexus RC-F only barely beat out the Golf R.

That's because rc f was against cars value higher by much. So it was against more than just golf r.

Oh, really?

gonzo · 10-02-2015, 02:26 PM

Watch video in reverse slow of motion and clear rc f by far wins all as expected.

Wish warms.

Sort of shock a 911 wasn't in the group... Doesn't the 911 GT3 RS meet the bill?

I wonder if the Z06 was in top shape or if it was still down on power cause 124mph is pretty slow for a 650hp car(and pretty fast for a 500hp car(AMG GT)

), specially knowing that the old Z06 had no problem trapping higher then that with 150hp less.

The ZO6 starts losing power once it heats up, and goes into limp mode.. so 124 isn't a shock.. Actually the 1st Zo6 in the test broke so it came in last place ...

Well, 650S and 488GTB to name a couple. And the GTR still hangs in there.

Mingwan · 10-03-2015, 11:08 AM

so the zo6 can't even go 11 seconds without going into limp mode? That 650hp is weak if that's not the case.

Go watch greatest drag race 4. Spoiler alert, it would've placed first.

Seriously? 650s and 488GTB? Are you making up names of phantom cars? Sorry I don't know those. Maybe you're so "in the know" that you drive baller cars we normal folk can't. GTR? not in the same league...fast but not a Porsche....you own one so you're a shill for your car...that's OK. I get it.

The bottom line is that the Porsche is the lb for lb best car and value in the universe...find something even close. You cannot. /thread.

FL335 · 10-03-2015, 05:13 PM

OK....I was curious...searched them...McLaren and Ferrari...More money, not as good track cars. probably higher top end, not 0-60.

My wife could turn a 2.8 0-60 in the Porsche. Again, nothing on this planet does everything as well, all around.
