No excuse needed for clicking on this. World speed record drone versus a Porsche 911 GT3 RS? At a deserted Festival of Speed, at what looks like dusk? It would be criminal not to watch it.
Obviously there's a backstory. The team behind the drone - made up of a partnership between XBLADES (the pilots) and Wingcopter (the manufacturer) broke the world record just last week, managing a two-way average of 240.06km/h (or just shy of 150mph in proper).
They filmed that too, although it's less dramatic than you might imagine (even at night, with an accompanying light show). How to spice it up a bit? With one of the world's foremost sports cars, of course. And on the hillclimb this time. Who wins? Guess.
