Thanks to CS Panda for lending us the Jaguar Project 8 - What happens when you're filming a load of drag races and you have both the A45 S & Jaguar Project 8 on hand? Well you have them go head-to-head against each other, of course! Now on paper, you may think this will be an easy walkover for the Project 8. With a 5-litre supercharged V8 under the bonnet, it'll produce 600hp & 700Nm! In comparison, the AMG A45 S only has a 2-litre turbo under the bonnet, which will produce 'just' 421hp & 500Nm. And how about the weight? Well, to be honest, they're pretty even. The Jag comes in at 1672kg, while the AMG is only slightly lighter at 1630kg. So you're probably thinking 'Mat, what's the point! ' Well, here's the thing. While the A45 costs -56, 000, that's only a fraction of the HUGE -180, 000 price tag of the Project 8! So with that in mind, will there be such a massive difference in performance? There's only one way to find out. LET'S RACE!

As a driver of an FType SVR, with Carbon brakes, i would say that when hot, very hot, there's nothing to beat them. they just get better and better. I would also say that during all of your testing of cars with carbon brakes, the results are not representative of their capability. I've also had the pleasure of the Project 8 at 100mph drifting on ice at Jaguar's ice driving academy in Sweden. It is pretty awesome.

Not watched till the end yet but at the beginning I thought this was a pretty pointless race. But if you class this as apples for pears and think more about the cost aspect, it makes for an interesting race. However, without checking I'm sure they raced hot hatches not to long ago and the merc was slower. Saying that it kept up at the beginning on the frost race with i found interesting.

-carwow I-d like to see some of the plug in hybrids for the German company car options like the new bmw 330e, Mercedes and Audi? Drag in all electric, sportiest settings, combined. You catch my drift.

Imagine starting a rolling race on comfort mode on a special dragster edition Jaguar. There isn't any! It has been built to be full frenzy always, I guess.

I feel bad for Jaguar, for that woeful looking renault keeping up with their high performance track machine. Seriously that merc is an awful looking car
