2018 Porsche 911 GT3:
The 911 GT3 is pure Porsche. It bridges the gap between motorsport and road driving, truly reflecting the core of the brand: successful on the race track, reliable in daily life. The new Porsche 911 GT3 strikes the balance like almost no other. This is all thanks to the completely new, six-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with 368 kW (500 hp), the high-speed engine concept, the revised chassis with near-motorsport tuning and the systematic lightweight construction. With a four-litre flat engine, the 911 GT3 generates its power using the same engine as the thoroughbred 911 GT3 Cup racing car. Developed on the same test track and manufactured on the same production line as the racing car, Porsche's motorsport technology has once again been incorporated into a road-approved sports car. As a result, Porsche's most successful GT sports car delivers an emotional mix of high performance and unfiltered driving feel. The majority of GT drivers also like to take their sports cars for a spin on the race track, which is where the new Porsche 911 GT3 really comes into its own thanks to a weight-to-power ratio of 3.88 kg/kW (2.86 kg/hp). With a seven-speed double-clutch transmission (PDK) that has been specifically tuned for the GT3 as standard, the two-seater weighs in at 1,430 kg with a full fuel tank and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds. It boasts a top speed of 318 km/h. For those who love pure unadulterated driving, Porsche also offers the 911 GT3 with a six-speed sports manual gearbox. This allows the high-performance 911 to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 320 km/h...

2018 Dodge Challenger Srt:
For years, the Big Three have been selling parts-counter specials that are purpose built for drag racing: Cobra Jet Mustangs, COPO Camaros, and Drag Pak Challengers missing VINs that you order like an oil filter. These are cars only in the sense that they have four wheels. You can’t legally drive one to the corner store for milk or bait teenagers on Woodward Avenue any more than you could in an IndyCar racer. But Dodge is changing that with the Challenger SRT Demon. Born to Drag: SRT head honcho Tim Kuniskis admits that the company wanted to go in a different direction than the Challenger’s obvious competition. Ford and Chevrolet clearly targeted the road-course demographic with their ultimate pony cars, the Camaro ZL1 1LE and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. To be different, SRT zeroed in on a target 1320 feet long—a quarter-mile—and packed this Hellcat-cum-Demon with legit drag-racing technology normally reserved for purpose-built trailer queens. By fixating on a single goal, Kuniskis and company claim to have destroyed not only crosstown rivals, but all competition, in quarter-mile races—including the Porsche 918 (the quickest production car we’ve ever tested)—with a 9.65-second elapsed time at a blistering 140 mph. That’s quick enough that the NHRA says “no, thank you” unless the Demon’s owner installs a roll cage. A nine-second production car that we expect will cost one-tenth the price of a new 918. Let that sink in. So how did SRT do it? Details have been released in a form of Chinese water torture over the last three months. First we learned of all the weight SRT cut to get the Demon as trim as possible, most notably by stripping out every seat save the driver’s (the front passenger seat and the three-place rear bench can be optioned back in for $1 each). Then there was a mysterious box full of parts and tools, a glimpse at the hood scoop, the wrinkled-sidewall drag radials, some suspension details and transmission specs, and on and on. Thirteen teasers in total, which included more than a half-dozen cryptic hints that Chrysler has finally decoded. The campaign nearly caused our interest to wane. All we wanted to know was how fast and how much power...
