Offer your cars and truck totally free with :

It's time for an all-American DRAG RACE!

Mat's lining up in a , and he's about to go head-to-head against a 2008 ! But which will come out on top – Dodge, or ?

Well for beginners, let's take a look at the stats. The is powered by a 5.9-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can provide 900hp and 730Nm of torque (although it's presently producing around 700hp). This power is sent to the rear wheels via a 4-speed handbook gearbox, and the car weighs in at simply 1,400 kg. In terms of financial value, it's worth around ₤ 100,000.

Then together with it, we have the road-going . This is powered by a 5-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can produce 451hp and 527Nm. This power is sent to the rear wheels only by means of a 10-speed dual-clutch automated gearbox, and the car pointers the scales at 1,843 kg. If you're looking to select one up now, it'll cost around ₤ 50,000.

So will the newer win it? Or will the NASCAR power to success? There's only one way to discover … LET'S RACE!

Thanks to @BACKFIRE-MEDIA for joining us with their NASCAR!

      Actually it has both the converter and 4 clutches. I own one, in dragrace mode it changes gears on full power! I hope they used drag mode because that is the fastest. I also have magneride that also sets the stiffness for drag race.

      They’re from the UK so they think Nascar is “stewpid”. They don’t care to make it look bad, because if they didn’t they would’ve had the nascar race the mustang from a roll, which is what it was designed to do, instead of a dig.

      Because the cup car is not meant for 0-60. Every Nascar race starts as a rolling start, not F1 style. Longer gears also mean more top speed. The Garage 56 Nascar from last year’s Le Mans also had a different transmission for the corners.
