    This might just be the best Porsche drag race line-up of all time!
    We’ve got Mat lining up in his Porsche 911 Turbo S, and he’s about to go head-to-head against one of the most expensive Porsches around - the 918 Spyder!
    Naturally, the stats on both of these cars are absolutely insane! Starting with the 911 Turbo, it’s powered by a 3.8-litre twin-turbo flat-six which is good for 650hp and 800Nm of torque. It tips the scales at 1,640kg, and if you’re looking to pick one up, it’ll cost you around £169,000.
    But trust us, that’s nothing compared to the 918 Spyder. If you’re looking to buy one of those now it’ll set you back at least £1,300,000! But that’s not all, it’s also up on power compared to the Turbo S! Its 4.6-litre naturally-aspirated V8 also comes with two electric motors, which combine to put down 887hp and 1,280Nm! It is slightly heavier though, weighing in at 1,675kg.
    So how will this one play out - an easy win for the 918 Spyder? Or could the Turbo S snatch it? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

      People underestimate the GT500 because it's a Mustang and slightly heavier than average. The DCT in the Shelby GT500 is super quick. If the 992 turbo S keeps up and evenly match in a roll with the demon and the GT500 does the same, then they'll be close. No doubt the turbo S will win a drag race due to AWD and rear engine layout.

    Hey Matt I would love to see A re-creation of old Top Gear Race between the P1 the 918 laFerrari Over a mile the one they did was absolutely crap and these cars deserve to stretch their legs a bit more than a 1/4 918 is worth more than a F1 car that’s insane
