Standby for each car start line. With so many rivals lined up, the roadster at the front is only carrying 155 horsepower and a big handicap.


The countdown begins ... ...


Only the roadster dashes dash! Apparently, it seems that a handicap considering the difference in horsepower is given.


Each car remaining to follow the Roadster also dashes dashes. Thanks to launch control, there is no single vehicle that shows unnecessary wheel spin.



Cadillac · Bentley · Chevrolet · Porsche 4 leaders are the first to lead with only the first dash starting at the same time. Especially the two Cadillac Chevrolets are two boasting a powerful power of over 600 horsepower.


Utilizing the power, red Chevrolet Corvette dashes dashes.


Driver driving a Corvette. Whether weight differences are not incorporated in the handicap or just a little bit of concern.


Even among the top group, the lead who leaded us was Bentley Continental GT 3 - R. It is a heavyweight heavyweight with a weight of 2.2 tons, but by leveraging the advantages of all-wheel drive, I hit all the power of 572 hp on the road.


Bentley is totally at the beginning of the race.


The top group is Bentley · Chevrolet · Mercedes AMG 's triad condition.


However Chevrolet Corvette showing growth from the middle. He caught up with the white Bentley and gradually reversed his tendency.


Eventually Corvette stood at the top among the top three ... ...


Goal as it is! Chevrolet Corvette Z 06 (Z 07 package) shined the 2015 champion utilizing high power.


The Corvette marked the fastest time as a commercial car of 11 seconds 4. The speed of the goal point reached 124.4 mph (about 200 km / h) per hour.


Bentley Continental GT 3 - R is deadly guardian in second place. The time is 11 seconds 6, and it drops 0.2 seconds from the top Corvette.


It was regrettably the third place in the yellow Mercedes AMG GT S, with a time of 11 seconds 6. While at the same time as Bentley, it was third with the difference in goal's nose.


Including this drag race, Motor Trend decides the best car of 2015 based on running performance of the circuit and comparison of specifications, furthermore sensory evaluation of the driver, biometric data such as heart rate and body temperature etc. The Mercedes AMG GT S is shining in the 1st place, the Mazda Roadster (2 liter model) is ranked in at the top of the 3rd with a strong power and a price difference. It is a pity that the Corvette Z06 which got the top in the drag race ended with the result that it was not selected because of a machine trouble by other tests how much.
