Mercedes-AMG GT S vs Audi R8 V10 drag race: German supercars face off!

Mercedes-AMG GT S vs Audi R8 V10 drag race
Mercedes and Audi have very different ways of making supercars. The Mercedes is curvy, twin turbocharged and rear-wheel drive, while the Audi is full of angles, has a naturally aspirated V10 and quattro four-wheel drive. But which comes out on top?

1:42 the guy is so devastated like his bf just left him lol

the sound of the launch control on the R8 and Huracan bring joy to my heart

You pit a 4 wheel drive super car that has more power and less weight, to a GT car with less power and more weight, and made a video out of it?

I still want the GTS. It just seems sexier to me.

[JoeAchilles]

Gobsmacked! A more powerful, lighter car with two more driven wheels won a drag race!!!! Haha I crack me up

[XybrTeCh]

They should use the Mercedes E63 because at least it has AWD

[seipai]

That was a complete thrashing and it was not even the V10 plus! 😁

No point in comparing awd v rwd in a drag. Especially when theres 30bhp difference too.

[Ante_Knezevic]

Audi was faster on acceleration but it was also pulling away harder and harder. So sick.. AUDI

[Frank-Ding]

I'd be interested to see what would happen in a rolling start

[BradMarchandtheSlewFooter]

And thats not even the R8 PLUS... *yawn*

[cas.l]

Always been a Audi lover and I will stay like that ❤️Audi❤️.

[PedroFTeixeira]

What a surprise... the 4wd, lighter, more powerful car won!

[a.r]

Aha, and Why is This the AMG GT'S and Not the GT'R !? This is fake, the Mercedes Benz AMG GT'R is faste than the Audi r8

[SaSa-cdmo]

I like the result because I like the R8 :D

Audi vergewaltigt Taxi auf höchster Stufe

[neoanderson]

How in gods name is the awd VW lighter than the benz? Is Mercedes using iron somewhere?? Most of these drag races are pointless when there's an awd car. Especially when that awd car is lighter and has more power than the competition.
Do like that v10 scream!

4.0sec 0-60 it should be at least 3.8 to 62mph, something went wrong
