Doug Demuro ULTIMATE Supercar Showdown | Ferrari F40
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- The legendary Ferrari F40 #supercar goes head to head with some of the most iconic vehicles from the 1980s and 1990s. Doug Demuro walks us through how the #Ferrari does on the private airstrip against the Acura NSX, @rufautomobile7284 Yellowbird, Dodge Viper, Porsche turbo and even @DougDeMuro in his Mercedes e450 wagon! Enjoy this Ultimate Supercar Showdown presented by @Pennzoil
Introduced in 1987 to celebrate Ferrari’s 40th anniversary, the F40 replaced the 288 GTO as the firm’s top performance road car. Utilizing a lightweight chassis, fabricated from specially bonded Kevlar and carbon fiber, the F40 became Ferrari’s first production vehicle to exceed 199 miles per hour. In addition to being the fastest and most expensive Ferrari produced, the F40 was the last Ferrari vehicle whose development was personally overseen by Enzo Ferrari himself. Although plans called for just 400 to be built, demand drove production to more than triple.
A big thank you to Pennzoil for making this series possible, the Ferrari F40 was powered by Pennzoil Platinum 10w60 oil!

That was awesome! Would love to see more retro races!
More to come!
@@PetersenMuseum Who have the incredible idea to put this royalty free rock music over these engines? seriously...... this is a crime
Why even do this if you aren't going to launch the F40 for real.
TOTALY AGREE!
Agree x3
Its a manual turbo car.. it needs to be partial in boost when launching otherwise is will be seconds slower 😮
This showed nothing of what the f40 could do.. carwow did roll racing with them alot better..!
I must say that ruf was clearly faster and the viper was faster than i thought.
Ruf still the fastest one but at least the F40 could try to do something
It's a shame. These things are so expensive where they can't really launch them.
Thanks to modern technology, the things we can afford (sort of) can out perform the super cars we dream of from our poster bedroom walls. 😎👍🏿 like Doug’s Mercedes e-class wagon with 3 row seating and a baby seat.
'Our F40 driver doesn't want to beat on his car so this whole video is pointless.'
Cool. Glad I could watch a video for absolutely no reason.
...The F40 runs a 13.5 against the NSX but by the time the Viper came up it was running 16.4? Umm....even on a bad launch that's terribly slow.
I advise redoing this as a rolling race!
Perhaps over a longer track, it would make the race more interesting, and would reduce the risk of damaging the clutch!
The F40 is a track car, not a dragster. Nothing in Ferrari's history would make a good dragster. Their clutches would fail after the 2nd race.
The F40 driver respect too much the car. Push it! She will love it and reward accordingly
I'll say what we're all thinking...That F40 owner is one heck of a good sport!
That CTR was insane, 130 mph trap speed is the same or faster than some modern supercars
It had more in it too!
If they were so worried about the F40's clutch they should have gone from a 20 roll or something.
As a Viper owner it was still painful to see an F40 get towelled up by pretty much everything :(
Who have the incredible idea to put this royalty free rock music over these engines? seriously......
C4 Callaway or ZR1 Would have been a great Race against them.
It may be a future race! We have 8 more head to head videos coming to the channel over the next several months.
That yellow bird is to this day the best❤❤
Drag races are pointless if the drivers aren’t willing to lay it all on the line! Babying off the line to save the clutch, is not going to reveal true results.
Drag races are pointless period. 0-60 times are well known already, it would be much more interesting to see these iconic cars setting lap times around a track
Agree
Well yes but old Ferraris are known for breaking their rear diffs and roasting their (extremely expensive) clutch when doing a full launch, so most owners obviously aren’t going to be fully launching their car 15+ times in one day.
Drag racing supercars is ridiculous anyway
Wish for this Ferrari F40
Came for the Viper. F40 and Viper are my childhood passions.. finally bought a Viper. Waiting on the funds for an F40 now hahah
What is with the F40 start!?
As I remember, F40 is the first car which can reach 200MPH, in all tech specs its top speed specified as 201MPH. So why in the video top speed mentioned as 197MPH?
I guess 201 mph was never reached in independent tests by car magazines etc.
the top speed was from 197 mph 315 to 199 mph / 319 km/h gps top speed. It never recorded 324 km/h on gps. But on speedo yes.
A good comedy movie. But you forgot to race against the bicycle...:)
A camera and/or microphone near the engine bay and exhaust would be an awesome perspective to hear those beautiful sounds! For next time :)
I expect the Viper has a lot more low down torque to get it off the line than the F40 - their 0-60mph times are almost the same and then the F40 starts to gain?
that’s my grandpa in the yellow bird go grandpa gooooo
Should have had a vector in the shootout.
The sledgehammer Corvette also would have been an interesting vehicle in the shootout.
Great video. But whoever did the color correction was taking a nap. Call me next time ;)
I say let a young owner who owns a f40 and is willing to run his car actually race, isn't their a few youtubers who slammed theirs and did other mods that more than likely could have stepped up to the 9late? Thank God for the Ruf owner who had the stones to run his car
No one is modding a F40 to lose a huge amount of its value.
The F40 got as low as 13.2 but then was a second slower against the Porsche Ruf. There should have been a F40 vs Ruf final at the end.

Nice video. Would of love to seen a C4 ZR1.
loved the cars! Hated what was done out of it! Maybe do a rolling start for clutch’s sake? Did subscribe because of carwow but will cancel if the next video doesn’t come through
Thanks for working with Carwow and letting Matt borrow your car
I really wish, considering the level of cars and presenter, this had better production quality. Cool concept, but no effort in making it visually or auditorily appealing.
Sounds like Doug recorded his commentary on a 1990s phone
Cool, do a test with F50 too
Pointless races, 40mph roll will be a proper comparison.
Watching the Yellowbird walking the F40 is beautiful its an older car and still they launched it like it was the 1980s while the fragile Ferrari was caressing the steering wheel
This would be better if they had filmed on a day that HOONIGAN was there filming THIS VS THAT...
Peterson Museum I love you guys but the random drone footage of the track in silence was incredibly awkward. Take a look at how Jason Cammisa and the Hagerty team do their drag race videos for some helpful production tips
Appreciate the feedback - more videos to come!
As soon as the boost builds up in the F40 it just takes off and passes from behind.
100% when the boost kicks in - it moves!
If the Viper actually had tires that weren't 30 years old and you had a real driver, it would run a 12.1 quarter
NOTICE THIE TRACK IS THE SAME ONE KB KICKED ASS ON!!!
As long as the F40 is driven by a driver, who don't wanna use the full potential of the car, this video is useless... :-) Rolling start is much better, if you don't wanna stress the clutch. The audio is another thing - you can do better... :-)
Make sure to subscribe- we have some rollers coming soon!
The NSX was a super car until the Viper came out and smoked it by 2 seconds in the 1/4
F40 is asleep at the line…
30 year’s difference get us boring, safe SUVs that prioritize efficiency over panache. Progress?
For about 49 seconds, it all seemed OK... and then u added some background music!!! :))) WTF guys.. NO!!!
I've seen F40s make 12 seconds up to 14 seconds. So it's clear it depends on the driver....
Most expensive clutch, anyone ?
i think there was something wrong with the 930 either the driver or mechanically like the turbo was bad. these are all museum cars so i would think they were babying a little bit
Doug could have brought his GT40 or Porsche Carrera GT but fuck it bring the station wagon.
Fun video - RUF was moving. But really bad editing I must say - 1) Doug saying that the NSX F40 race looked close and explained why that might be… and the car got by boat raced by 2 full seconds in that run 😂, 2) one of the captions was “,PH” instead of MPH. Comma right next to the M key
The guys frying their clutch might regret it later; they want bragging rights but it ain’t legit unless EVERYONE is pushing as hard as they can ALL the time ::
Wish it was the ford gt and the f40
Thanks I guess
What's with the exposure throughout the video? looks like it was severely underexposed and brought back up in post.
Is it my headphones? Is DOug extra LOUD????!!
For the sake of this video that F40 should have been launched properly. This is just driving away... proves nothing.
Im shocked no diablos made an appearance
The RUF wasn't from the factory technically, so it's sort of a "duh it's faster". That gen 1 Viper was a surprise!!
Not really,they should've probably had the Porsche 959,the real competitor to the F40 and i believe it's faster then this yellow ,,Porsche,, ,so i believe it is somewhat legitimate since they could've had a faster Porsche in the race if they wanted to
The Ferrari F40 has 500 + and RUF CTR also have 500 + bhp in real world. their 478 bhp and 469 bhp are just for press.
after the viper race is clear that the f40 driver ins't very good.in the wowcar video it went different. so...
Based on this an F40 does a quarter mile at the pace of a Golf R
If the driver of a car is not going to even try and be competitive, what’s the point of the race?
the f40 driver is half dead
That didn't really prove much did it?
We learned the yellowbird was the fastest…
@@PetersenMuseum No we learned the Yellow Bird owner was willing to sink his foot all the way to the line! 😂
@@PetersenMuseum You obviously know NOTHING about F40, The F40 would destroy viper in both drag race and circuit, it has better top speed and lap times than RUF, best motoring did it and it destroyed them both, it is also faster than F50, Diablo SV, Carrera GT, Murcilago, XJ220, Ford GT40, and EB110, do your research, watch some videos, read some articles about micheal schumacher driving them all, it would would destroy them all on a circuit, the f40 owner is too afraid, your video is pointless
@@AD94000 I do partially agree with you,the F40 here is not really pushed from the start otherwise it would be second fastest.Regarding the Porsches,i don't think the F40 takes this Porsche or it's real competitor the 959 which is the original ,,Turbo S,,
@@AD94000 Yeash but it wasn't faster than XJ220. XJ220 has better nurb race track time
Um, let's do an actual track comparison next time. These were "road cars" designed to handle all the chassis and power-train duty-cycle dynamics of, 'ya know, the road--not a drag strip. I understand the economic risks involved, but one might as well compare a highly-specialized SR71 Blackbird against a versatile F-35B on straight-line acceleration. Nice video, but this isn't just apples to oranges, it's cumquats to grapefruits.
Lay off the coffee, dude. Sheesh.
Why the music over the engine sounds?? WHYYYYYYY!??!?!?
ahhhhggghhhhhhh edited by people who doesn't like cars...
@9:40 Well I hope who ever did the text got fired for that one.
@13:38 as well.

There is a difference of almost 30 years and the fact that in the past such strong and large engines in civilian cars were frowned upon, people were afraid that ordinary people would kill pedestrians, cyclists and other drivers... and they were right. Today, there are simply high-performance engines in family cars. In the past it was almost forbidden. Today, many cars are supercars, but with different bodies.
This F40 needs an overhaul, it lacks power. This 470 HP is probably false. However, even in the 1990s it was believed that the F40 did not have enough power and larger engines than the small 2.9 liter one were put there. Also about 3.5 liters with turbo. Someone should check this power -
whether it is real, one possibility is that Ferrari lied.
In the LM races, these Ferraris had an exceptionally high number of engine failures with 600 HP. Ferrari suffered huge defeats.
Unfortunately, the road version is a bit heavy for its power. The power that no one can confirm and the catalog results of 11.8 to 12.2 s/400m do not confirm the power either.
So either the car is worn out or Ferrari is lying. Such small turbo engines need to be overhauled frequently, especially when used to such an extreme extent over 400m. The engines of old, powerful cars lasted very little, a maximum of several thousand kilometers of hard driving.
C'mon, what's the point in these races if the F40 keeps cocooning it's clutch?? WTF so an F40 clutch is expensive. Ok but you are a god damn billionaire! See the F40 run low 11's quarter mile times back in the days at best motoring, that is it's true potential not these so called races...
I don't care what people "claim" RUF isn't a car company. They're a tuning shop.
Too much mechanical sympathy. The people who can afford these cars, can afford to fix them. Inaccurate representations of these cars capabilities.
either you do it right or don not do it at all, misleading information, the f40 is a lot faster
This video is a joke.
The Ferrari driver probably the owner is to scared to push that baby why drag race when you are afraid to push the car to its limits he takes off so gently and slow just like my grandma taking off from a traffic light.
Poor car’s turbochargers didn’t even got a chance to even boost 1/2 psi.
Damn hes just so annoying......
