The Cars Versus Aircraft Speed Fest was held at the Zhukovsky Airfield during the MAKS 2017 international airshow.
During this unusual contest, various high-speed racing cars attempted to outrun real aircraft.
For example, during a heat that you can see on this video, a Formula 1 car raced against a MiG-29 fighter jet right on the runway.
The 13th International Aviation and Space Salon MAKS-2017 kicked off on Tuesday, July 18, was held until Sunday, July 23, at the Zhukovsky Airfield near Moscow.
