It’s time for an awesome RWD DRAG RACE!
We’ve got Mat in a Corvette C8 Stingray, and he’s facing off against a Porsche 911 Carrera and an Audi R8 RWD!
Now all these cars have pretty varied outputs, but we assure you it’s going to be closer than you think! Starting with the Corvette, it’s powered by a 6.2-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that puts down 482hp & 613Nm. It also weighs in at 1,655kg.
As for the Porsche, its 3-litre flat-six twin-turbo engine can ‘only’ put down 385hp and 450Nm. However, it’s easily the lightest car here, weighing in at just 1,509kg!
Then finally we have the Audi. It’s powered by a gorgeous 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10, that’s good for 570hp and 550Nm. It also weighs in at 1,609kg.
So what do you think - will the Audi walk it? Or will the 911’s lightweight prove the difference? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

And again, it's the entry level.. I wonder if you put it and the 'vette on a dyno what numbers would come up... I don't expect the published ones based on those drag races. ;-)

[@gpaje]

@@mikerobinson7988 More likely the Corvette numbers are accurate and the 911 is downgraded so it doesn't compete against the "Turbo" model, even though it's still a turbo. 11.8 Quarter Mile, seems accurate to me. The 911 is overachieving for it's numbers, though not it's price.

[@gpaje]

Well, it's a 911 Turbo in reality right, it's published numbers are likely downgraded so it doesn't compete against the "Turbo" model which sells for a lot more. For costing $10,000 more than the Vette, I actually expected it to perform similarly.

If the Porsche's performance against the Corvette were just due to power being more than claimed then with its inherently superior traction it would win off the line as well as in the rolling races. Yet its superiority is more clear the higher the speeds. It must be that the total drag on the Porsche is much lower than the Corvette

[@patrickf2386]

It’s defintely down to drag and not like everybody here’s claiming the underrated power figures. The 911 has a very aerodynamic shape and low drag. Which is also why it’s relatively fuel efficient on the motorway (around 35-40mpg).

[@MrOnat89]

Lower drag area less weight and shorter gearing ratio makes the score to 911

[@jpslaym0936]

What? The 911 was never ahead at any point so what are u saying superior traction? What's actually happening is Porsche underates the true power at the crank in all its models. It makes far more than it reports/advertises so its not drag. Porsche reports Cd (coefficient of drag) of 2022 911 in its most efficient configuration having a minimum cd value of 0.33 (achieved with closed flaps and retracted front and rear spoilers). Corvette reports the Cd of its base model C8 with a value of 0.32. i.e. its the power that is the factor for Porsche.

More drone footage please, this was awesome!!

[@evaanahmed9289]

The new drone shots are lit! Super curious to see if they place the drone near the tyres of a car doing burnouts

[@drippymofogger]

cant wait to see that m4 CSL

[@epi2045]

Love the Vette. Owned two previous gens. However the base 911 is fantastic!

[@SpartanHighKing14]

That V10 will always be my favourite engine. Such art

[@abdelrahmanmohamed8329]

Your videos are superb mat, i love them and they would be much better if you can shot the lunch from above with a drone

Owning a boxster or old Porsche suv are not considered a Porsche owner lol

Great test, now if we can get a ZR1 Vette sometime eh!?

[@XennialGuy]

To bypass the soft limiter on most of them, after your vehicle is warmed up, put your drivetrain in neutral (instead of Park), that will usually allow you to rev to full RPM.

[@adamk9830]

Doesn't work on my '22 R8. Neutral will still have the 3K soft limit. A cheat is to rev the engine in launch control without actually launching it.

[@bradmartland5723]

Crazy how the 911 has less performance than some hot hatches yet it'd decimate them in the drags, on top of that we need to see Audi bring back then V8 RWD R8

[@Admonitor_]

Wont happen. Tha R8 is dead after that gen due to emmision laws and shit in EU which is a shame. Such a beautiful car. Both looks wise and engine wise. Also bring back a RWD V8 R8? As far as I know the V8 R8s were only available with quattro

[@bradmartland5723]

@@Admonitor_ look at them first gen they had rwd v8 r8s they was the quad exit tail pipes and it's a shame as the r8 is like the best of both worlds supercar really fast and powerful yet surprisingly affordable

[@Admonitor_]

@@bradmartland5723 quad tailpipes on the first gen was the V8 Model, right. (At least before the facelift) But every first gen R8 was AWD. There are some tuned first gens where they disconnected the front diff to make them RWD only. But from factory there were no RWD V8s ever made. Rhe coolest R8 ever made was a concept with a mid mounted V12 TDI. That would have been a unicorn

Hey, Mat. I'm genuinely curious. Why have you never had a Dodge Viper in a drag race? Are they just that rare and hard to get in the UK?

The viper isn’t really anything special in a straight line and it hasn’t been sold for quite a while

@@josephbargo5024 True, but the ACR's are beastly and iconic in the very least. Would fare well in the rolling segment, I would like to believe. I know they haven't made em in 5 years, but I think people would still tune in if a 16 or 17 model was in the thumbnail.
