Kia stinger v6 twin turbo only goes a 165 miles and hour and you aren't beating a high end corvette and I don't like corvettes and kia was modded and saw a mclaren get destroyed by a corvette new one
Love your plates, really suits a Stinger. My plates on my Stinger are GT FUN coz, well it is one hell'va fun ride. But her pet name because she's Micro blue is Sonic.
Hey this is my home track! I live just down Hwy 64 from the track. Unlike this Stinger, lol on the announcer, I have an actual Tesla P100D you may see out some Thursday night; runs 10.7-10.8 around 122-123mph. That is a fast Stinger though!
Well modified Stinger to run those times vs stock vettes. I happen to own both those cars as my vette is for sunny days and the Stinger is for everyday use. The Stinger is a fantastic car, i wanted it for its awd ability being in Wi. Stock to stock a vette takes a stinger by at least a second but tune the stinger, and its a fair fight lol. Now if you want to road course em, then a tuned stinger wont hang with my grand sport. Those launches by the vettes here were perfect, high 11’s is as good as you can get with them being stock.
I wasn't showing the light in this one, but likely it's just the Corvette hit a good light, and the Stinger was just more worried about making a good pass than a perfect light. Still not a terrible light even if they don't have a ton of experience.
@@Haywa11 I was thinking the same thing. I am awd and raced a Stinger GT RWD modded like this one. I got him off the line as he spun but boy did he pull on me hard at 1/8th mile. However I smoked a lightly modded Stinger off the line: ua-cam.com/video/T4PXV_Xkwp0/v-deo.html
Off the track and on the streets, an awd stinger will run with most anything rwd as street traction is usually compromised with oils or gravel making it harder for high hp cars to hook. These stingers launch violently with awd, to 60 they will be right there with most vehicles, and tuned they really do well! I have both a C7 Grand Sport Convertible corvette and a Stinger GT, on good roads my vette is a good second faster, but road conditions aren’t always good enough to hook the vettes 335’s up half the time and the kia just hooks everywhere.
It doesn't matter when you're just going for time slip. Ever been to the drag strip? This is my biggest pet peeve on drag racing videos. He doesn't care if he beats a stupid truck next to him. Trying to run his best time
@@ClaytonYatescarenthusiast don't be knowitall, you have no idea "what he thinks". Tell us what YOU think and we'll take that as YOUR OPINION. Fair enough? Pet peeve? Seriously?
@@bbigrocker1 that's the beauty of understanding something definitely not a know it all but seriously you don't get it. People literally don't understand how the drag strip works. Then they pipe up with a stupid comment about reaction time like they know.
I give credit to the vette driver. I went to the track a few months ago with my AWD stinger and not one american muscle car in my bracket--street tire division broke under 11--in fact most were very high 12s to 13--although the vette driver had to burn out 20% of his rear tires to get that time.--get your rt down bro--the stinger computer takes a split second and when the last yellow light flashes let off the brake--I powerbraked at 1500 RPM--no launch control and got decent times--but yours was faster.Even with RWD the Stinger computer is better then american cars computer at putting the power down.
Are The stingers in this competitions allowed to use launch control because.. I don't think anyone driving them knows how to use it. Hold down the brake and load up the gas.
Agreed. But for a grand you can get those numbers. And take the kids for ice cream. Put the seats down to fit an 80" TV in the back. Snow? AWD. The Sringer is the Jack of Hearts. Not the best, but good in many scenarios.
@@jimmydean314 He's $3-4k in parts alone going by the video description unless he cheaped out on everything, not including labor or tune. The thing you forget is that to run those numbers you're buying a $50k family sedan, jacking up the boost and doubling the hp from what it was safely designed for, as well as dumping the 10 year warranty. As much as I dislike stock cars, you can run 10s in a stock Z06 and still drop it off at the dealer for a new one if something explodes.
Hmm it’s a GT line so parts may differ from the GT. Get a cold air intake and look into tuning it. Even though it’s a GT line, could still make it as fast as a GT.
Who the heck drag races in a convertible? Aren't they actually heavier than the coupe? (All the structural reinforcements to avoid twisting). And he'd be dead if he ever rolled that thing.
Well they always had some rules , but if the car is safe then race it . I like to see all kinds of vehicle's racing but pretty much draw the line at snowmobiles. But nowadays I like real cars the most . The kinds with interiors and doors mostly.
Stinger driver needs a better pair of glasses to see when it flips green, and I promise he'd be faster by a few tenths by getting rid of those 34lb each heavy ass OEM wheels and some 2 piece rotors
Omgggggg the announcer called the stinger a tesla. Thats it. Im getting a stinger.
🤣
Haha I had people come up to me in my stinger asking if it was a Tesla. Now this always when I’m pumping gas lol. I just laughed.
Best decision you’ll ever make
You will not regret it, beautiful car all around in my opinion.
Nice that the Stinger was performin' well enuf to be mistaken for a Tesla, lol. Love the exhaust note of that electric motor.
Stinger performance is crazy good
@@bradhall9481 I know - got a 2019 GT 3.3L AWD myself
Like the Corvette but let’s be real the stinger has 4 doors plus extra space in the back and it’s going that fast
Trackhawk's faster and heavier than the stinger wheres the excuse there
I honestly think it's designed for the dad who has kids but still wants to go fast. I think that's its killer app.
@@corvettezr11994 reliability, 7 year warranty, only 50k vs trackhawk thats like 80+k. And yeah mpg...
@@Marrk001 yeah but the complaint was that is has trunk space and shit well a trackhawk is bigger and can tow

You’re being sarcastic right. KIA Stinger.

My Grandma has faster reactions than the guy driving the Stinger in the first race!
right
That was a 1 whole second reaction😂
That’s the only reason he lost to both c7
Still would have lost
I think the second race he had something to prove and or figured out he had launch control
lol
I was eating a cookie when I saw the time I start coughing.
U should have seen my face 😅

he got "TREED"

Stinger is a v6 with twin turbos all ways some one faster when I think of kia think of ikea
Brooo, why does he keep calling my baby a tesla? 😫😭😭😭
That wasn’t the Stingers fault. Terrible driver. Slow reaction. I’m still rooting for the stinger. Corvettes are all showboating.
11.5 is fast for a stinger :)

Wait , is the stinger stock? Wow 11 sec that's awesome
Absfuckingloutely not stock.
A stock turbo stinger is a 13 second car
@@jamesjdm thanks for the clarification 👍

Stock or no stock. My 2022 GT1 is fast as hell !!!! Love driving it.

Ok uhmm is his Stinger modded?
Considering a stinger is a 13 second car? Yes. He's modded. The description has the mod list and he has a tune also but that wasn't listed.
I have a 2022 pearl white kia stinger gt-line and people ahve mistaken it for a jaguar and porsche in daylight!
I’ve seen a couple and didn’t know what they were at first
I want the stinger guy's instagram account, facebook account and UA-cam account
I didn't know Kia made Teslas
01:37 come on Porsche if you got money on Kia Stinger you don’t have to fuck it up so bad that we can all tell you let this shit go easy
Any recommendations on how to make my 2020 stinger gt line faster?! Thanks in advance fam
Booooost
Hmm it’s a GT line so parts may differ from the GT. Get a cold air intake and look into tuning it. Even though it’s a GT line, could still make it as fast as a GT.
Florida?
Yes, Bradenton
Green means go!
Is the Stinger tuned?
Yes
Yes, I would guess it is stage 3. 11.5 sec 1/4 mile is a pretty good time. It has at least 500+hp
Obviously
Kia beats porsche!! And c7 corvette..!!
11.5
1/4 mile
Next 2022 or 2023 .. i hope they upgrade more horse to compete with exotic ones!!
That stinger looks like a Ford Fusion from the side
The stinger looks like a future model of what the Fusion could’ve been.
Those stingers are so nice
You’re right, singer porsches are pretty great 😂
I love my stinger... hehe...
Love mine too
So do i love mine too ^^

I see what you mean, but that Stinger is pretty fast though
Is the stinger stock
Downpipe, midpipes, catback, intercooler and meth injection.
That's one good looking Tesla
porsche had a bad lunch
Stinger was slow off the mark, could have done better time
You know that the time starts once you get going right ?
Fastest Tesla stinger ever.
and noisiest Telsa I have ever heard lol
Add some rain. ⚡ Stinger.
Stinger fell asleep at the light
Terrible start for whoever the hell is in that Stinger. Should be right there at the end with the Corvette C7
