Hey that was pretty cool man. But at the same time its also about the driver. I have seen a few of them cars rip better times stock then they posted. But who cares. That was actually pretty cool and looked fun

By far one of the most entertaining drag races ever... not every day do you see 12 cars lined up . Nice post.

Cool video....nice cars...maybe a BMW M3 and a ZR1 would have been better. Awesome to see the Japanese car come out on top!

Guessed correctly the GT-R as winner. That launch control system + AWD cannot be beat.

So many beautiful combustion noises. The LFA sounds so incredible.

Nice find!

Couldn't listen to the sound at work, did they mention the total combined price of the cars? Must be the world's most expensive race too.

I don't think an Evo has the sort of "status" that a 'vette, GT-R, 458, etc all have.
