    "dual clutch 7 speed... all wheel drive..."
    race is over. zero chance.

    • @exoroxx
      @exoroxx 3 роки тому +66

      AWD does almost the whole thing. Without it you just struggle like seen in the video. I hate it, I also have to deal with it. Driving loss would be an issue over 100 kph, but that wings on the Civic may result in a quite high air resistance. The Civic never had a chance.
      The same cars (in terms of power and air resistance, not in weight and drive loss) - one with AWD, one with FWD - will end in almost the same time for 0 to 200 kph. But the Drag Race will end sooner.
      Yeah... and that dual clutch 7 speed (DQ381)... it's a nice gearbox. I've got in my Cupra, but I don't think it's really fast. But faster than a stick shifter...

    • @Charmer4856
      @Charmer4856 3 роки тому +25

      Absolutely true....more gears usually means quicker shifts. 320 hp 7 speed car vs 320 hp 9 speed...I’d put my money on the 9 speed

    • @exoroxx
      @exoroxx 3 роки тому +11

      @@Charmer4856 But...you will have to shift more. Or it doesn't make a big difference, because the higher gears don't effect the lower speed acceleration and there are literally two or three overdrives. That is the case with the 9G Tronic (Mercedes). Nowadays chances are low that all 8, 9 or 10 gears were used for maximum performance.
      With the DQ381 it means, you are in 5th gear at the end of the drag strip. It is possible that a manual transmission would be in 4 th gear. I'm too lazy to compare the gear ratios of both cars...

    • @exoroxx
      @exoroxx 3 роки тому +3

      @@robertmcdonald9762 Yeah, it wouldn't make much difference, though it shouldn't be ignored. But every German car manufacturer (with petrol cars I've driven) uses only six of their seven, eight or nine gears for (limited) maximum speed (~250-260 kph). Every higher gear is an 'overdrive' to save fuel and to reduce noice. A six speed manual transmission could do the same - just without an overdrive, so it's not really eco friendly and noice reducing.
      Like I said... I don't know what is the case with the Civic Type R. My last car with six speed manual transmission (from VAG) had a totally useless 6th gear for maximum performance. Maybe Honda drives a different way and (almost) redlines the car in 6th car, so they are not much different. But... the gear shifts will take much more time, even with some clever electronic innovations and if you torture the clutch. Around 300 ms at least for each gear change...
      I thing the bigger point is the traction at the start. It's just horrible and it costs a lot of time.

Also I hope you arent planning on keeping it for too long cuz all my VW cars had a failed DSG after 60k miles. You americans have access to so many more cool cars than us europeans for way cheaper and you get the dogshit VWs. We dont get the Elantra N for example, really cool car. For the overpriced golf you could have gotten a kia stinger, a much better car and a much better transmission, a real automatic which is not only more comfortable as a daily, it also isnt a time bomb.

    That golf r has got way more than 320 hp. A 12.3 second 1/4 mile means it probably puts 350 to the wheels which is over 400 at the crank. The Mercedes-AMG A45 is rated at 421 hp at the crank and put in a 12.2 second 1/4 mile, so that’s the kind of power we are talking about. The golf r mk8 is way underrated!

      Just so Americans understand. These are forced induction engines. Power is variable and depends more on the capacity to deal with heat. They can give a higher HP number but then some idiot discovers the car can't sustain the official power figure for long time. So they give a lower power figure. And btw Civic overheats also despite being pompously called a track car. These are turbo engines and power comes at the expense of endurance.
