Drag race: Porsche 918 Spyder vs Red Bull KTM Moto GP bike

Is one of the fastest Porsches ever made a match for a full-bore racing motorbike? Today we’ll find out.

Let’s start by talking about the Porsche 918 Spyder. It has a 4.6-litre naturally aspirated V8, paired with two electric motors to produce 887hp and 1,280Nm of torque. This is sent to all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. All-in, the 918 spyder weighs 1,674kg.

Next up, we have the Red Bull KTM RC16 Moto GP bike, ridden by Dani Pedrosa. It has a 1,000CC V4 engine with 270hp and 117Nm of torque. The bike and rider combined weigh around 200kg. That works out to around 1,350hp per ton, which is more than enough when you’re relying on just one-wheel-drive…

So who will come out on top? You’ll have to watch the video to find out.
