VIDEO: How thirsty supercars really are

This video shows a race involving 5 supercars. The catch is that they must race with only 1 gallon of fuel in its tank. The winner is the car that goes the longest distance.

Wow, that Ferrari barely started the race before it was done. 1.7 miles before it was done.

I would have liked it if they put a Porsche in the video. This vid is kind of pointless because all of these cars are ^100k, and who cares about gas mileage when you are stanky rich? It was cool to watch though

Yeah, put a porsche 911 turbo instead of the Aston. The porsche would've beat all of them.

When I heard the cars, I predicted the R8 as the winner.

And as impressed as I am with the ZR1, I just can't get on board with the rabid fanboy-ism for it around here. Without a doubt I'd take an Aston over it any day.

That just comes down to personal tastes though I suppose.
