Ever wondered which is faster in the 1/4 mile? LaFerrari, P1, or 918 Spyder?

Now we know!

The sound of that LaFerrari though!

Cool. But, $5 says all three of those cars could go a bit quicker with someone who knows how to drag race and not just mash the gas, spinning through 3-4 gears.

Someone in a Hellcat or Z06 auto with just drag radials can do those times (not that I'm for a second suggesting the HC and Z are any sort of equivalent).

Well 1/4 mile is not just about time. It's about trap speed too and there is close relation between power, weight, time and speed. Maybe someone in HC or Z06 or even 991TTS with sticky drag radials can do better time, but for sure noone with any production car can beat those traps... and I'm not talking about modified GTR with 2000+ HP

Did you see the track prep? It was in terrible condition based on the elements- no wonder the times were off aka bad 60 foot numbers. But as @M6-Coupe alluded to; the power is clearly there at the 1/4 mile mark. No way a Z06 or Hellcat pulls those times (et's) in those conditions.

i'm sure i've read on many other posts on here about you modded M5 guys getting better times/or at least as good times as all these...
I know you need sticky tyres for drag racing but fek me, you'd need glue/tar on your tyres to get the power down on the P1 and Lafa...
still shocking that none of these broke into the 9 secs though...
