The-Worlds-Greatest-Drag-Race-6.jpg

As part of Motor Trend?s annual Best Driver?s Car competition powered by Mothers, we line up the contenders on an airstrip and bask in the glory of horsepower, wheelspin, and launch control.

This year, Senior Features Editors Jason Cammisa and Jonny Lieberman give you a quick tour of the 12 competitors before strapping into their insurance-mandated helmets and firesuits and introducing pedal to metal.

This year, the contestants are the Acura NSX, Aston Martin V12 Vantage S manual, Audi R8 V10 Plus, BMW M4 GTS, Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE, Dodge Viper ACR, Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R, Jaguar F-Type SVR, McLaren 570S, Mercedes-AMG GT S, Nissan GT-R, and Porsche 911 Carrera S?except for one small addition after Jason realizes Jonny?s Dodge Charger Hellcat is parked nearby.

I've always loved Audi. I'm pleasantly surprised the R8 won. My money was on the McLaren although it was super close.

The behind the scenes video is really interesting. I think they had to do a total of 17 takes to get all the footage / get the launch right for every car there.
