Watch the Porsche 911 Turbo S in action, the world’s fastest racing car, as it pushes the limits of speed and performance.

The base-model 996 Turbo has an output of 414 hp, with a top speed rating of 189 mph (305 kph). This car has the X50 package, so performance figures are up to 450 hp.

Turbo wastegates help your car's turbocharger spin at just the right speed. But if they get stuck, a legion of bad consequences will follow.
