Cadillac V-Series R Le Mans Race Car vs Ferrari McLaren Porsche Drag Racing
You won’t see the Bugatti Bolide BXP Le Mans prototype in this race, but a Cadillac V-Series.R does take on a Ferrari 296, McLaren 750S and Porsche 911 Turbo S in a drag racing showdown.



Powering the 2,380-pound Cadillac race car is a 5.5-liter, 90° V8 engine generating 740 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 7-speed sequential gearbox. Now the only vehicle in this race comparable in power numbers is the Porsche 911 Turbo S, equipped with a twin-turbocharged 3.7L flat-six engine making 640 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Can any of these three supercars take down an actual Le Mans racer? We won’t spoil the results, but will say that weight plays a big factor in both races.

The real difference isn’t just the power; I would have loved to see each of these cars do a few corners to witness the insane mechanical grip and downforce of the LeMans car!,” said one fan.
