I prefaced my statement with "regardless of context" because i have no idea if either car is modded, experienced drivers, etc. Every sane person knows the 720s is a faster car, but the fact that we are here watching "SUV's" pull this hard is a treat. I would like to add tho, we have plenty of 10 second & even a 9 second F9X on this forum, but as always, drag races arent won based on specs.

Yeah, we have 10 second F9X's & a 9 second one as well. Stock, this is a no brainer, but without context, its so cool to watch this platform rip.

Traction looks like it would be hard to come by based on what you can see on the track. Easy win for anything that has four driven wheels. Mclaren driver kept in it for too long and then struggled for grip at the end, just like the start.
There's no mystery here. |

Based on the video, the McLaren driver is definitely a nooob, a novice driver for a fact and most of all...his dumba$$ was BLIND AS A BAT!!! How he did not see the straightway ending and the turn approaching is beyond me.

No way that was a stock X3MC
720S has loads of traction with mid engine, even with a bad driver and bad road it should still beat a stock X3MC but OUCH, used 720S still go for ever $300K, with that kind of accident on file, maybe $200K and one pissed off insurance company (who will probably deny claim for drag racing) |

It appears to me that with recent stimulus funds many Mustang drivers have traded up to McLarens much to the benefit of YouTube viewers.
