C8 Corvette vs 992 Carrera S vs 2021 Toyota Supra // DRAG RACE, ROLL RACE & LAP TIMES
Thomas and James put some of the most exciting new cars head to head. The C8 is a proven entity on our drag strip, but how does it compare to its more expensive rival, the Carrera S? Also along is the new and updated 2021 Toyota Supra, which packs the least punch of the three, but might just be light enough to hang in there. Thomas also does a hot lap in the 911. As for the Toyota Supra, hot laps will be featuring in a special video coming later. Who will take the win, and by how much? Things don't always go as predicted. Watch to find out. Subscribe!

#Porsche #C8 #Supra
The Supra is like the younger brother your mom has forced you to include in whatever you’re doing😂
Sadly the new one isn't special, other than looks
😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀
@@davidlegkodukh6969 Not even the looks is special. The FT-1 concept was special. This MK5, they forced the FT-1 styling on a way smaller BMW Z4 chassis which makes it look frumpy and awkward.
@@davidlegkodukh6969 it's a literal bmw. 😂😂
electrikoptik I just looked at the FT-1 concept. Man I wish they did that instead of squishing it down and putting it on a z4, it would be so much better looking!
5:27 I found it so funny just seeing the Supra Driver roll up his window like, "Yeah I'm not part of this conversation" LMAO!
Do i know you?
Ohhh yes now i know, hello popular guy with more than 3 subs
Hi Bladed I really enjoy your vids
That's what you get for being in a race out of your tier
Probably didn’t want to hear the damn wind buffering 😂
When “just a carrera s” costs 140k, it better be fast
Exactly. Porsche prices are insane and they nickel and dime you on every little option.
@@oneaburns its a Porsche not a Chevrolet or Toyota
@@oneaburns They do nickel and dime you if you go off standard spec. But standard spec is very good. The Turbo versions are loaded, of course...
I'll take the Porsche all day long.
Eggzachlee! That part !
I like how they don’t even talk to the supra driver haha
That supra still can't beat the legendary mk4 SUPRA
Hahahahahah he felt left alone
And he forgot to put it in sports mode by the sound of the exhaust lol
I saw the supra driver rolling up his window, he got tired of waiting for them to talk to him... LOL
What Supra?
Supra be like: what the heck even I'm doing on here.!'
Supra be like "Oh well, 3rd wheel duty for me then".
@NSX 55 yea, not a fair fight. It's like putting a welterweight against 2 light heavies.
Toyota screwed up with the Supra should of made a Toyota engine
Give it a stage 2 tune and it makes about the same power as the corvette for cheaper
NSX 55 lol the c8 is 59k base
Porsche beats a corvette in a drag race and the corvette wins on a road course? what universe have I woken up in?
Billie Buckamer the base 911 is no match for the corvette. The Carrera s isn’t the base.
The Amazing CJ I discovered that after I posted. Thanks for the correction and yes....the base Porsche 911 trails the C8 performance wise. 👍
i was thinking the same..Mustangs and Corvettes being faster than 911 on track...decade ago everyone would laugh at you
Corvettes are not faster than 911 on Track you got damn imbeciles, just check the Nurburgring time's and find out who is the real Track King!, its not Corvette, Corvette is decades behind Porsche Turbo's...
It's been like this since the c5 zo6 came out in 2001. By the late 1990s with the C5 and even more so with the C6 that followed, the Corvette, with its ancient leaf spring suspension was having a hard time putting down power effectively. Even though GM placed the transmission at the rear of the car for more weight on the rear drive tires, connecting it to the front mounted engine via a torque tube, it was difficult to launch as well as the rear engined 911. At this point Porsche started taking the straight line stats on the upper models (911s or better) while the Corvette Z models began to become track stars with great lap times (as were the Camaro SS variants).
This is the most fun review I've seen. Great job guys!
I blown away at how hard that 911 was pulling away from the vette in the 2nd race 🤯🤯
Boxer engine + VTG Turbo + the motor in the rear (weight on the driven tires (300+)) kzhead.info/sun/haV_ga5qa3-IhYE/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/icyslsuEmJhuZKc/bejne.html
yep, about 2x the price to enable many hundreds of lbs lighter will do that.
@@T0RP but you are wrong. The previous generation of Corvette was indeed more exciting but here it's the Porsche as well
@@chirazi I am actually thinking the C7 Corvette has a big problem with that Cylinder Deactivation feature. They are saying you need to get a manual car and drive it NOT in ECO mode. So, there is that. I wouldn't complain too much, but it is just so hard to part with $80k and know you have to fiddle around with buttons every time you drive it, or do some damage to your engine. I don't get paid to drive. I have a C6 Z and thinking it is either C6 ZR-1, or get my car tuned up, or wait for the C8 Z06, which I can only afford after somebody else puts 100,000 miles on it. Love the Porsche of course, once I win the lottery. Thanks.
It's a 120k car guys it should be fast..lol.
I am a huge Porsche Fan but let's just all take some time to appreciate what value for money that corvette is!
I'm a huge Ford fan and even I have to admit Chevy did a good thing with the new Vette.
Z06 and Zora is coming
my dream car 😍
The Porsche and Corvette have been selling for the same price.
The Vette looks like trash
Honestly, the best thing is my morning coffee, oatmeal cookies, and a new throttle house episode.
In wich Time Zone do you live?
RIGHT!! Easter standard ! Canada Ontario
Oatmeal cookies are poopoo. Chocolate chips are the stuff.
Damn right 🔥
Toronto Canada representing! Same here, coffee and TH in the morning on a gloomy, cold and damp day
So glad you did a hotlap after talking about it. Thought it would be a teaser for another episode but you have provided again.
You guys are great together - a lot of fun to watch - the 911 is insane can’t believe that
is the best of the bunch, it is a grand touring car, sport car all combined in 1 beautiful package. It also holds it's value the best. Can't go wrong with a 911. Like they say Porsche,,There is NO substitute !!!
Gold: Germany Silver: ‘Murica Bronze: GerPan
Obviously not on the track.
Chevy and Porsche have outstanding track vehicles
@@harleymann2830 porsche was build on the track
Silverwing the Porsche and C8 would smoke a Supra on the track what’s you’re point?
Remember there were two German cars... Only one German car prevailed!!
Crosses finish line: "So what exactly happened?"
mat watson lol
Carwow drag race OG gang 😎
Well we don't know :/ they didn't give us any times.
Love Your Short Entertaining Videos. Keep up the great work 👍
I cannot wait to get my 992 this summer!! Your videos have really helped me make up my mind.
Did you get it?
"Miserable Thomas is the BEST Thomas" We agree
Why did you have to skip all those lines to say that, dork?
This channel is on the rise to the top..... I like this drag races...... Drag race the x6 m competition with RSQ8 please and mercedes gle 63s.....
With a trackhawk
@@aayushtiwari1194 exactly.... To be the first channel to drag race those... It will be a hit
@@aayushtiwari1194 Wouldn't be fair the Trackhawk has almost 200+ more torque than all its competitors
White Fox no it dosent, the AMG has 627 vs 645 in the Trackhawk, the X6 has 553 which in BMW terms is definitely more than that, and the Audi has 590.
Please... No. Fast SUVs are fucking stupid...
Just goes to prove that for its price, the C8 Corvette is IN CRE DI BLY good ! Can't wait for the Z06 and ZR1 models...
The Zora is gonna be the real monster...
@@CarGuy5141 Yeah, but it’s a hybrid.
@@AJTurbo a twin turbo flat plane crank hybrid
@@CarGuy5141 but still I’m not about to try and help the environment.
@@AJTurbo I don’t care what it does to the environment... I’m just saying there’s nothing now that can compete with electric cars off the line. A twin turbo flat plane crank hybrid c8 with over 1000hp is gonna be like an Acura NSX on steroids that are on steroids
These guys are my new favorite car review Chanel just love these guys
My money is on Porsche
its the most expensive one, of course it going to win
Loki not how it always works tho. My explorer beats Rovers, mustang gt, jags...
Loki The 911 beats many cars that it’s less expensive than.
@@markp9366 yes I know but this is like comparing lowest tier mercedes with s class...
Yeah me too
Corvette: I am speed. 911 Carrera S: Hold my beer.
TheOtherNeutrino hold my price
AMN faster better quality and you have a Porsche
@@AJTurbo 90k c8 still can't matcj porsche interior
V S and you’ve payed double
And my 2 kids in the back and groceries in the front.
They failed to mention that the Careera S is a turbocharged beast.
What??
@@ltsgarage7780 the Porsche has twin turbos
No it’s naturally aspirated
@@parkertheskittle7372 No its not. All 992 Carerras are turbocharged except for the GT3.
Omar I’ll go look that up??
Gawd I love you guys!!! keep it up!
Love this channel and how much you guys have grown and evolved!
Enjoy eating breakfast and watching some throttle house on the side, awesome!
These guys are awesome! Keep it up!
That split screen at the lauch was perfect 😂😂
THAT "Doppelkupplungsgetriebe" attempt from James was the worst German I ever heard. That honestly did hurt me in my German heart
😂😂😂i Just thought Like wtf
@@dannyschmid3803 Maybe it is because he doesn't speak german, duh.
@@brulaapgaapmeester8234 yeah sure its Just funny to hear sth U know that Sounds completly different 😂
Lmao hab überhaupt nichts verstanden😂😂
@@dunklerrattenkobold1997 Doch Doppel
The rear end of that Porsche is just 🤤🤤
Ugly for me,I think the turbo and turbo s are way more estetic
Nah, the previous gen looked way better. And I don't like the 991 at all.
Yeah but the front end needs to hide in shame in a paper bag
You mean that slug bug beetle looking thing? 😂😂
I think that the 9992 rear looks great. For the first time Porsche left the long tradition design
While the Supra lost big time, I think the reason why it is here is because these 3 look awesome together
Really like the content lads. Keep it up.
Hey guys I just want to say the content has been sooo Amazing lately!!!🔥🔥 Thank you guys so much!!
Germany was first. And last.
Underrated comment! XD
Yeah, if you want the Supra, just get a Z4 instead.
@@mattevans4377 Oh definitely not, the supra is cheaper and way faster
@@J.PC.Designs Oof you mic dropped him lol.
@@averageinvestor4986 They're the same car?
Really enjoyed this video with the exception of the voiceover during the hotlap - would love to hear throttle/brake points and tire noise instead. Great work though guys!
You guys are wonderful man. How did I barely discover you all?!?!? I would say you'd be the next May/Clarkson/Hammond! I can't believe I barely discovered you guys!!
The way Thomas's face got red after the first drag race😂
It’s also the reflection of the porches red paint
Reflection of the red paint
That’s because of the 911 red paint reflecting, but it’s a nice coincidence
This video pretty much sealed the deal for me: I"m selling my 1997 Saab 900s and ordering a 911s.
f for saab
LOL! I miss my ole 9-3
😂😂😂
First time watching you guys, pretty good review and race. Also surprised with result, thought Corvette was faster than Carrera S.
that drone camera angle of all the cars going down the strip was superb, i just wish you quickly flashed the times of each car as the go past the line
Amazing filmmaking! I felt like I was in that drag race!!!
Solid performance all round for the C8 and 911... Interesting how the speeds balance on the track
Those are awesome cars! I still want a C8 but the 911 is definitely my dream car
Love me some 911 Carerra S. Saving for this car currently.
"Feels good to see you in my wing mirror again"😂
Would be great if you guys can include the time's of the drag race
Porsche truly German engineering at its finest. Great video guys . Keep it up. God Bless from South Africa
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! But Next Time Can ou add an Infinity Q60 Red Sport 400???
I’m just pumped for the z06 and zr1
@Snippetmaster3000 don't know about that Zr1 it probably will have double hp...
Snippetmaster3000 the zo6 and Zr1 will destroy the turbo
Marcello 2005 the z06 wont be beat by the turbo lol the Germans know what they're doing. As far as the zr1 just wait for the 911gt2rs to come out
@Snippetmaster3000 Kidding right ??? lol the vette is on that things heels and its stock motor lol when its supercharged and setup to handle which we all know will be ... Vette smokes it !!
@Snippetmaster3000 There's already speculation that the Zora model will be over 800hp with just the gas engine alone, then you factor in the few hundred they'll get from the 3 electric motors...... Who knows until it's out but I wouldn't be suprised if GM went really big with this.
That porsche is making those horsepower figures at the WHEELS lmao
Underrated lmao
Sometimes with the camera to the side like that it’s hard to tell how fast they’re really going but when I saw the overhead view at 6:24 I was like “oh yeah they’re flying” 😂
Great race!
That porsche is gonna win everything in next 12months at least
Uh...Corvette Z06 begs to differ ;)
@@gabrielflores1149 911 Turbo S too😊.
yeah... even the price tag
Well I mean when you’re paying double it probably should.
A.W A corvette ZR1 110K and beats 200K supercars,
Porsche: You get what you pay for 💪🏻
Porsche has the best 6 cylinder cars in the world.
@@davidlegkodukh6969 nah, bmw makes Waaay better 6 cylinder cars, they sound much better, and you get much better worth for your money.
Jacob tell me a better BMW 6 cylinder engine than the new 911 Turbo S engine or the GT2 RS or GT3 RS
Yes you pay 50k more and are 0.3s faster in a drag race, ridiculous!
@@Jacob-oq1yd Well thats nice but Porsche is the one doing below 3's always with there Sixes and I own a X6M
can you guys start recording the quarter mile times please
I like your every channel just wow
James : Thomas : This car is one of the best cars ive ever driven on this track.
I've seen detailed reviews on utube range so dramatically on the new C8 0-60 time, from 2.6-3.6sec which is an absolute HUGE difference! A few reviewers spent the time figuring it out and accordingly there is a very specific setup in the driver settings that makes all the difference to achieve the quickest time. Its not just launch control, so im curious where the C8 sat in the 0-60 in these races??? Oh, and i think the new Carrera S is actually turbocharged even without the nomenclature which gives it a torque boost.
"That car is too fast...it does not need to be that fast" "That is what a loser would say." "I'm sawry..."
good review surprising results.
I think on Michelins the 911 would be faster
I've got Eagle F1s on my 981 and they're decent all round tyres but the limit of grip isn't incredible, so a proper track tyre will definitely make a huge difference.
I am reasonably certain it can do high 1:10s on cup 2s. Someone needs to sponsor those cup 2s to make it happen though..
@@ApothecaryTerry The problem is those are Eagle F1 Asymmetric not the new Eagle F1 SuperSport (these are probably still only available in Europe). TyreReviews tested them and they were making almost identical times to PS4S on BMW M2C.
@@autumnleaf2976 Goodyear actually has even better tyres than cup 2s - SuperSport RS's. ;) Pity none of those nice GY tyres are available in US and Canada.
@@perakojot6524 I think I saw that test as well a while back, good years were _almost_ as good, I think 0.5 sec a lap slower than P4S, don't exactly remember though. As for dry performance, they also tested cup 2s and cup 2R recently with some competition in a GT3RS. Cup 2s still at the top!
Can’t hardly wait to see the ZO6 C8 version of the mid engine Corvette. It just shows how far along Porsche has been able to evolve their platform.
This is the video we needed.
Anyone know which airstrip they’re using as a test track?
"next time on throttle house, a ferrari 458, a lambo huracan and james running outside"
James, I sent you guys a DM on Instagram with the correct pronunciation of pdk. Your version is a lot funnier though 😂😂
When will you guys share times in the 1/4mile? Very easy using dragy
Hey Thomas, I have a 911S and have taken it to the Mont-Temblant track, what do you mean by … once you figure out how to use the brakes to help the car turn in?
Makes sense, I can't wait for the Z06 tho!!
i was gonna say when they make the z06 and/or zr1 that would just turkey slap the porsche
@@EnVyRe4per right...but then the ZR1 races a 911 turbo S or a GT2 RS....and loses once again
Yeah I can’t wait till these guys race a turbo s
The turbo s eats everything in a straight drag race
That thing would kill a lambo
2:12 I cracked! 😂😂😂
What does the "Boost" button on the Porsche do? I know this 911 Carrera S has 2 small turbos, so I assume the Boost Button temporarily turns up theBoost for launches... But how much extra horsepower does it actually make?
What year is the Porsche in this video? BTW love your videos!
Porsche 992 turbo s : that's my boy
Until the c8 with 800hp will come here
The 911 turbos s would be miles away
2.6 sec 0-60 that thing would be gone
It's AWD
And a c7 z06 would come barreling past it like a missle
Baibii Tokyo you wish 😂😂😂 if it can’t beat a 720s it won’t beat the Turbo S
@@Joe-wj1uk sir thats not always the case lmao. An Aventador svj can destroy a turbo s in a race but it cant beat a 720s.
Good job 👍🏼
Waiting for an F-Type R video from you guys (last gen)
The finishing order was as expected, but what’s the point of bringing along a third car if you’re not even talking to them
To put the Supra fan boys in their place without having to say anything.
Carwow enters the chat
@@letsgobrandon416 they want 2jz every Toyota
Yea that seemed kind of dumb. Supra competes with Camaro SS and BMW M2.
@@DragonKnightX12 And a base C8 competes with a Boxter if we're going off price. The C8 and Supra were closer in price than the C8 and 911 S.
Anthony Bourdain back from the dead at 3:17 because he really had to try that new 21 Supra.
how much drag is that go pro creating on the top of the vette?
😂James is like in my whole career I have heard ohh it’s a AMG camaro
Love how the Camaros are near the top of the list.
"Too fast." Porsche be like, "we've won"
Throttle House is the best Channel on KZhead!!
I see this video was done before the Viper ACR. It has the second best lap time by .02 seconds. I wonder how it does for drag and roll.
I love how the vet is the only car that doesn't sound like an industrial-grade hair dryer
The vette?
@@sparkle1234 bruh moment
@Aykut I would be happy in the vette with the extra $60,000 i saved by not buying the 911
@Aykut This is true, but as far as bang for buck goes and being able to appeal to a wider market, the vette is way ahead of the compeition
@Aykut Are you talking about the rich heritage of every 911 looking the exact same?
It's no longer the driver talents that win, or the engine, it's the computer transmission launch control technology. Although tires and all of those things help. As self driving improves, they will simply take the driver and his/her seat out all together.
Honestly imagine the quarter mile times with that weight reduction though
@@Matt-dy7uq lol
Awesome video. Although most quarter mile times suggest that the corvette is a tenth of a second faster.
Would love to see the Lotus Emira on your channel and ripping a hot lap when its a available
Supra- Why are we here, just to suffer
It did great considering the price power and no computer controlled launch controlled dual clutch transmission.
People should stop drag racing Porsches. It should be obvious by now :P
More like 30% cheaper. I cross shopped my 911 with a Vette.
Catholic Firefighter exactly, a corvette Z06 that cost 80K will spank a Porsche on straight line LOL.
@@superswagproud7189 Oh. You mean the 650HP corvette vs a 450hp carrera s. Sure it would win. Put it beside the 992 turbo s or a gt2rs and it will get eaten alive.
Yapping we are talking about price here, no shit a 300K Porsche will spank a 120K corvette, now put a GT3 which is like 100-200K it will still get eaten by corvette ZR1.
Yapping use a 991 turbo S to a C7, C7 Z06 vs 991 Turbo S, z06 wins track and straight. The corvette C8 Z06 or ZR1 ain’t even out yet.
Very nice!
Just brilliant fun!
The Supra will be dead by 2022, in my opinion. They just aren’t selling.
mat, you are right...huge mistake to conflate these two car companies and hope it be able to compete against it's grand history. It really isn't a Toyota Supra.
Yeah, but, I can also see Toyota not caring if it doesn't sell. As much as they say it's a Toyota, most of it is BMW. Which costed them almost no R&D.
Facts new supra(bmw) sold more than BMW z4 XD
When fastnfurious dipshits think the Supra ever even sold well at all. Take of your rose-tinted shades.
@@reck0n3r that looks worst.... way to riced out looking my opinion tho.
I remember reading Road and Track in the 60's and the Vette was always faster but the Porsche always handled better.
What track is this filmed at?
Hey guys, how come you never test drive a Superformance Cobra or GT40? I'd love to see how either one of those cars stack up against some of the other competition. Just a thought...
That supra still beats like 85% of cars on the road. And the aftermarket is unmatched.
Lol..... more like 95 percent lol....the carerra s and c8 beat 99 percent.....Only lose to Hypercars lol
Happy w/ my 2020 camaro 2ss 1le.
those really are cool - had a black one blow by me on I-90 a while ago. I saw it coming up the fast lane and the roar as it's all wound up flying past me (when I was doing 75) was pretty darn cool...
"What about the Supra, it should have more than 1000 bhp under the hood" 😂😂😂
This helps decision .. i was hesitant between C8 , Carrera S or Targa 4
