Ferrari F40 v Bugatti EB110: DRAG RACE

Thanks to everybody for assisting to establish this drag race:

THIS IS A DRAG RACE FOR THE AGES!

We have actually got the famous , and it will go head-to-head versus the classic !

So let's see how these two legends compare. Starting with the Bugatti, it was originally released in 1994, and it's powered by a 3.5-litre quad-turbo V12 that can produce 560hp and 610Nm of torque. This power is sent out to all four wheels by means of a 6-speed handbook transmission, and it suggestions the scales at 1,690 kg. When it was first launched it cost ₤ 285,000, but if you're looking to choose one up now you can anticipate to spend a cool ₤ 1,500,000!

The we have the Ferrari F40. It was first launched in 1991, and it's powered by a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V8 that can put down 480hp and 580Nm. All of this power is sent out to the rear wheels only via a 5-speed handbook, but it's oh-so light, weighing in at simply 1,350 kg! It was initially more affordable than the Bugatti, at ₤ 163,000, however if you're seeking to buy one today it'll set you back a minimum of ₤ 2,000,000!

So the Ferrari is down on power, and it's just rear-wheel drive, so could the weight difference prove definitive? There's only one way to discover … LET'S RACE!

    Disappointed that the eb110 retired but the race between the viper and the f40 was surprisingly good when the launch was taken out of the equation

      Yeah agreed regarding launch since these are rare cars do not want to destroy them..
      but Even more impressive i really thought that Viper with V10 will destroy it but F40 kept closer

      ​@poplaurentiu4148 Viper is heavier, less hp, doesn’t have turbo and was 1/3 Ferraris price. I was surprised it kept up with f40

      @VisageHonestly, if the other dude was a bit braver with the launch, the F40 woulda shot off way faster.

    I wanted an EB110 or F40 so bad a few years ago, but I opted for a 1997 Civic bc of its bigger boot space

      I think you made the best decision…. think of the appreciation of the civic over the next 10 years or so 🤔

      Yup.. and ofc you can modify your civic but if you had done the same with your F40 Ferrari would give you a bigger boot space cease and desist letter lol

    Respect to the Petersen Museum for even considering this, let alone allowing it to happen. The EB110’s injury highlighted how delicate these iconic beauties are. Like asking grandfathers to run the 100 meters.

      Only because it’s been sitting in a museum rotting away. Had it been driven regularly, likely would have been just fine.

    I love the F40 and EB 110 with all their turbos, but that viper really is a beast considering its naturally aspirated.

      F40 is not pure cause of turbo. Ferrari always were atmospheric. Why they make F50 atmospheric? They should continue to design turbo cars. Instead they retire and abandoned F40 like traitors.

    Shifting the F40 at 5500 RPM isn’t a drag race, that’s a leisure drive.

      @Real Joshua okay, but then why making videos of this nature? What’s the point? To make the viewers believe something else? That’s just straight-up dishonesty from Carwow. At least just say it as it is “Listen, we’re going to make the race close because of X.”, or “Listen, we won’t be driving the Ferrari F40 hard, because the owner does not want us to”, or “The F40 would smoke the Viper, so we are going to make it close by not pushing the F40 beyond 5500 RPM”, something like that.

      @Andrei Paul Anastasiu sure, we totally get that. But might as well either not making the video or simply saying it as is “Guys the F40 is not going to be ran hard, we will be running it just for showing off…” something like that.
      They make it seem as the cars go neck and neck all the way to the 1/2 mile mark, which is deceiving and in my eyes straight-up misinformation and dishonesty.
