How many times does it take a well-engineered supercar to launch itself towards the horizon, putting on a loud orchestra with its well-oiled parts that's so sophisticated it would be considered magic just a few decades ago, before us human bystanders get bored of it? Ask drag strip regulars like a Nissan GT-R or Lamborghini Aventador that question and the answer will likely be "never," but for those of us that spend our days consuming these videos by the dozen, things couldn't be more different.

Sure, supercars are cool, but some make such frequent appearances on every YouTube channel that there's not a whole lot of reason to bother watching the same wedge-shaped silhouette do the quarter mile in over 10 seconds for the 458th time.

YouTuber TheTFJJ certainly agrees, which is why this drag race compilation offers something different. Instead of seeing a Porsche go down the runway for the 911th time, this collection features some ofd the most special cars known to man. Think a Ferrari FXX K, a Porsche 911 GT1, or even the elusive Mercedes CLK GTR, all of which are joined by other rare picks like an original Ford GT 40, Porsche 959, and a Lamborghini Miura to see how each fares on this blessed strip of runway. Here it's not entirely about horsepower, launch control, and kinetic energy recovery systems delivering an electric boost. No, this automotive orgy has no winners, just gobs of bedroom poster nostalgia coming to life and chewing through tires. As they should.
