I have to admit I have been looking at the McLaren 570s. Beating all these powerful AWD cars in the 1/4 mile running in the 10s range is impressive. The light weight and very strong carbon fiber tub lowers weight to around 3000 lbs wet with 570 hp and V8 twin turbo low rev torque.

I'll race any one of those cars any day of the week in my Rubicon, as long as I get to choose the road :-)

So let me get this straight. The Porsche is faster accelerating to 60 but the McLaren becomes faster at higher speeds and is quicker to 100. In conclusion it all depends on which range of speed you want to be faster accelerating in. Legal or illegal.
