This V20 is a beast, but just a concept.

When it comes to drag racing, they usually go with a V8 as it allows for more consistent airflow through the cylinders, leading to a more even burn.

As you can see, they had trouble keeping number 6 lit for the shoot. Still, very impressive bit of engineering!
