This is a drag race with a real twist. UK car-buying website Car Wow has lined up a few high-performance roadsters and arranged a drag race that tests more than just the straight-line speed of the sportscars.
Click here to see an SUV drag race of some of the most powerful off-roaders on sale today.
The feature cars in this video are the Mercedes-AMG GT C, the Audi R8, a McLaren 570S and the hybrid BMW i8. Each car has a folding roof. In this test, the speed of the folding mechanism is put to the test as well as the car’s acceleration.
