New A45S AMG vs Old C63 AMG! Rolling and standing start, huge V8 vs 2.0L, AWD vs RWD

When the latest Mercedes-AMG A45S arrived at the office, someone came up with the idea to race it against the W204 Mercedes C63 AMG we had parked outside. The thing is, that C63 belongs to our presenter, Ciro De Siena. Luckily he was on board!

And so we hired the Killarney Race Circuit, the quarter mile drag strip specifically, and set up what has become one our favourite drag races that we've ever produced.

We hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed making it! And of course please engage with us in the comments and on our social medias.
