Adam Carolla and Matt Farah pit the Corvette ZR1 against the Mercedes SLS at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California.

The Mercedes SLS AMG weighs a little over 1678 kg and is powered by a 6.3L V8 producing 414 kW.

This will allow the supercar to hit 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 317km/h.

The 1,511 kg Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 does a bit better with its 6.2L V8 producing 469 kW.

The extra horsepower allows the Corvette to achieve a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 322 km/h.
