What’s faster? A car or an airplane? Changi Airport to find out.

Transportation, , ,

Well, what is faster?  A car or an airplane?

No brainer, right?  Well, they’re going to test it out at Singapore Changi Airport.

To prep for the Changi GP Festival, on September 5th the airport is hosting the Changi Airport Race.

They’re billing it as the first-ever jetliner versus car race in Asia and it will pit a Porsche Carrera Cup race car against a Boeing 747 Jett8 aircraft.

Here’s a fast, fun promotional video for the contest:

Want to be there? Anyone who spends $30 (in one purchase) in the public areas of Terminals 1, 2 or 3 from now through August 23rd will be entered into a raffle to win one of 200 grandstand tickets. Another 500 people will win tickets to see the race live on a big screen in Terminal 3.

Sounds fun – and a little strange – but I’m curious to see what happens.

    My money is on the car. The porsche will be gone before the Boeing gets rolling.
