Round 1, Done!

There aren't too many upsets in the NT05 bracket so far, except for the #7 Lexus LFA taking out the #2 Mercedes-Benz AMG C63. Is your bracket still safe after the nail bitter #4 versus #5 matchup between the Ferrari 458 and Audi RS5? But hey, at least we all now know what a Toyota Draquoia looks like, maybe except for the driver of the Porsche 991 GT3! Don't even get us started about the Aventador turing the Rolls Royce Phantom into...(wait for it)...a Rolls Royce ghost.

Let's take a look at the highlights from Round 1 of the NT05 Bracket:

The NT555 bracket did hold a few more surprises, though. While the McLaren spanked the Mustang before its spoiler even popped up, Ford stayed in the game with the Ford GT Heritage advancing easily. But that's only when the fun was just getting started. Redrum was the theme the rest of the way as both the red Nissan GT-R and the red Saleen GTX Tesla slayed their competition.

Check out the highlights and upsets from Round 1 of the NT555 Bracket:


Only the "Great Eight" are left as we are now in Round 2 of Battle of the Streets: Los Angeles. Do you have faith your brackets will survive another round?

Round 2, It's Through!

Lambo-Ferrari, Ferrari-Lambo; the age-old question is finally being put to the ultimate test in the NT05 bracket. Did you have the right answer? Because the Lamborghini didn't just beat the Ferrari by the nose, it won by a vent and a door's length. Remember the only upset from Round 1? Well now it's a distant memory, just about as distant as the space the Porsche 991 GT3 knocked the Lexus LFA out by.

Feel the rush. Here's Round 2 highlights of the NT05 Bracket:

In a battle of upsets, the Nissan GTR faced off against the Saleen GTX Tesla in the NT555 bracket. In a battle of import car versus electric car, let's just say the results weren't as shocking this time around. On the other side, The Ford GT Heritage tried to take revenge on the Mclaren 650s, but after a "dude I almost had you" moment, the Mclaren left gramps in the past to advance to the Semi-Finals.

Watch the Round 2 highlights of the NT555 Bracket – if you can handle it, that is:


And then there were Four. This is the Semi-Finals of the Battle of the Streets: Los Angeles – it's time to find out who emerged from the NT05 and the NT555 brackets. Is your bracket still perfect or are you just enjoying the ride?

Semi-Finals!

Both the Lamborghini Aventador and the Porsche 991 GT3 have been breezing by their competition up to this point where they now face off against each other. But it was the Aventador who was given a rude awakening as the Porsche 991 GT3 continues its dominance by making it out of the NT05 bracket. In the Semi-Finals of the NT555 bracket was quick to as the least, the Mclaren 650s made sure the upsets stopped here as "Godzilla" aka the Nissan GTR was put down in rather convincing fashion.

It's do or die time. Watch the Semi-Finals highlights:
