Carwow pits new Porsche 911 against its rivals in a drag race
chitchatboy posted a blog entry in MyAutoBlog
The new Porsche 911 has arrived and British YouTube channel, Carwow has managed to gather the new 992 and its rivals together for a drag race. As per most of its races that it does, the cars will go through a quarter mile race, followed by a rolling race and a braking test from 112km/h. With a zero to hundred sprint time of 3.4 seconds for the new Porsche, the near entry-level 911 Carrera 4S is no slouch. Despite having only 443bhp vs its much more powerful rivals like the 611bhp Audi R8 Performance, the race is closer than you think. Watch how well the Porsche did in the video below! -

Motor Trends's 'The World's Greatest Drag Race' returns for the fifth time. Like the years before, ten of what they thought is the best cars face off in a quarter mile drag race. These cars are also Motor Trend's 2015 Best Drivers's Car. These year's cars that are fighting for the glory are namely the Lexus RC F, Cadillac CTS-V, Cadillac ATS-V, Mercedes-AMG GT S, Mercedes-AMG C63 S, Bentley Continental GT3-R, Volkswagen Golf R, Porsche Cayman GT4, Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and the Mazda MX-5. So who is the fastest? Watch and find out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjLJ6i8iYJc

At first I thought was fake video but looks like its real. Thought these hyper powered type cars would have wheelie bars to prevent such things though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxe_DqAkeAk

We all know Volkswagen Golfs are great sensible all-rounders for the family while still possessing decent verve when the driver is in the mood for a short blast. Apparently, someone in Russia thinks that it is too sensible and decides to turn his Mk6 Golf R into a 700bhp twin turbo monster. With the help of all-wheel drive and good reaction time, it proceeds to see off some much more expensive machinery. Watch the video below to see it in action. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdHVjYM9WsM&list=UUT8Rf6QQeFADwyyPTrGgT4Q

Alpha Omega Nissan GT-R rewrites the quarter mile record
chitchatboy posted a blog entry in MyAutoBlog
AMS/ALPHA Performance breaks the 1/4 record for fastest GT-R in the world with the Alpha Omega. Producing well over 2000bhp, the 4.0-litre big bore engine has its cylinder head CNC ported and runs its own custom turbo kit. Fully street legal according to the team, it does the quarter mile in 7.7 seconds with the help of a set of AMS 15-inch slicks. It crosses the line at a staggering 299km/h. Sadly more attempts to improve the timing failed even though the car had the potential to output more power as the weather proved too hot. Watch the video below to see the GT-R in action. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsnAbNtny7M&list=UUgF0OC_3MlW2KEyhhAgIQjAMeanwhile, here are some stats of the Alpha Omega GT-R: 0-96km/h in 1.53 seconds, 0-160km/h in 2.79 seconds, 160-241km/h in 2.15 seconds and 0-300km/h in 7.56 seconds. -
Motor Trend held its "World's Greatest Drag Race 4" recently and they drag raced 10 of 2014's best performance cars over a quarter mile. Will the Nissan GT-R Nismo win the Porsche 911 Turbo S this year? And will the BMW M4 be able to outrun its hybrid cousin the i8? Watch to find out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQ9NVz_LKj8

Cayman vs WRX STI. Who will be faster in a straight line?
chitchatboy posted a blog entry in MyAutoBlog
Watch the Porsche Cayman and Subaru WRX STI try to outdrag each other on an empty runway. They might not be direct rivals, but they are currently one of the better performance cars out there. Interestingly, both have Boxer engines and use six-speed manuals but the similarity ends there. Even though the WRX STI is 130kg heavier than the Cayman, it has all-wheel drive and 30bhp more. So who do you think will be the faster car? http://dai.ly/x20d593_2015-subaru-wrx-sti-vs-2014-porsche-cayman-standing-mile_auto -
Recently, we chanced upon a comparsion article where a few of the current and best hot hatches went head to head with each other. What caught my attention was that Volkswagen’s Golf GTI was faster in a straight line to 100km/h and 160km/h as compared to its peers; the Megane 265 Cup and Focus ST. That said, the tested GTI had the Performance Package and DSG, which meant around 227bhp (7bhp more than what we get locally). A little digging on the net revealed that owners of the new GTI have little or no problems keeping up with modified previous generation GTIs. Could it be that Volkswagen underrated the GTI’s output? We estimate it might actually be producing around 250bhp. On another note, if you need more power, one can always opt for a tune up from Oettinger. They claim to be able to make your GTI produce up to 350bhp with the help of a sport exhaust system, new intercooler and new custom air intakes. We believe they will also be changing the mapping of your ECU to help optimise the available potential from the latest EA888 engine. Other upgrades available include Oettinger’s aerodynamic package, which consists of a front spoiler with separate splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser and rear roof spoiler. In addition to the sonorous exhaust system with twin tailpipes either side, the strikingly designed roof spoiler with open R-Flaps provides a sporty stance.

I am sure most of us reading this love the Lamborghini Gallardo in a way or two. The owner of this particular Gallardo probably thought that loving it means turning it into one of the fastest production tuned car on earth. That means having more than 2,000bhp with the help of two huge turbochargers. Yes, that is no typing error. Unfortunately for him, his Underground Racing tuned Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera's V10 burst into flames instantly after crossing the finish line. Luckily for him, he safely got the car down to a standstill and escaped before anything bad happened. As seen in the video, the car looks pretty much fine other than the need to have a new engine block and some repainting. At least he broke the event’s top speed record by hitting 402km/h. That said, he is still pretty far away from the world record. That title actually belongs to the BADD Ford GT, which powered down the one-mile strip in America and setting a new world record at 453km/h with the help of 1,700bhp. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfbXK20tJnU

If you're looking for an ideal car for a drag race, we suggest that you take the 2013 Nissan GT-R into consideration. We wouldn't recommend it for nothing, it's even faster than a fighter jet - the Hawker Hunter, in this case! Well, that's true provided the jet doesn't take its wheels off the ground. When you take a look at the specification sheet of the new GT-R from the Japanese automaker, it

Ferrari 458 Italia vs first gen Viper. The Viper made a nice big burnout which must have made the Ferrari guy nervous as he takes off in reverse! I feel sorry for the poor guy, he became the joke of all his friends Check the video
