Jonny drives the world's fastest Aston Martin on the road. With 2800bhp and street legal, this drag car is almost triple the power of an Aston Valkyrie.

In this special episode Jonny drives the world’s fastest Aston Martin on the road. With 2800bhp and street legal, this drag car is almost triple the power of an Aston Valkyrie. Mark Todd’s monstrous ’90s Virage features a 9.3-litre (568 cubic inch) Chevy-based V8 with 118mm single turbocharger, which is enough to clinch 6 second quarter mile passes at over 200mph. He’s done this without slick tyres or wheelie bars. Jonny borrows Aston Martin’s most powerful road car on sale today – the 715bhp twin turbo V12 DBS – and drives it to Cheshire to car swap with Mark. The cars share bonnet badges and a level of construction similarities (MoT’d and taxed for road use, carbonfibre propshaft, carbon bonnet and boot, turbo power, four wheels…) but are otherwise completely different weapons.
