While initially looking like an odd pairing, the presence of an Audi RS4 and a Porsche 911 GTS on one drag strip makes more sense than you might think. Both are powered by six-cylinder engines producing 444bhp, and each has an automatic gearbox, albeit with the Porsche using a dual-clutch transmission and the Audi opting for a more traditional torque converter-based unit.

The 911 has a substantial weight advantage over the much bulkier RS4, but on the other hand, the latter car has all-wheel drive. Since we’re looking at a rear-wheel drive GTS here (an all-wheel drive version is available) which might not get off the line so well, this has the makings of a very evenly-matched battle.

Sure enough, the standing-start race is extremely close. We don’t want to spoil the ending, so hit the play button to see which comes out on top!

Makes me wonder why didn’t they take the Carrera 4 GTS instead of the rwd one

Probably was preplanned to make a closer race in all honesty
