      I mean yeah... They really should watch their words when being sponsored by a certain company to promote their cars lol. The i20 N Line isn't that bad tho, the full packaging of it is really neat and tidy. Doesn't feel as slow as you might expect, the 1.0 liter turbocharged engine still is stronger than most 1.0 out there (I have 0.9 turbo Renault Clio with 90HP). Still no sportscar by any means but isn't too far off from being a fun hatch to drive even on track. i20N definitely is the winner by all means, and even if I strongly believe in faster drivers in slower cars, theres so much more power to the i20N that the regular i20 couldn't even really compete against.

    • @jonytube
      @jonytube 3 роки тому +25

I'm driving a built E46 328Ci, wide and sticky tires, suspension, strut bars, stabilizers etc etc and 247hp. Driving on my favourite back road one day and had an i20 in front of me. Dude drove like a fucking madman, i honestly had trouble keeping up with that thing in the corners. He carried so much speed through the turns, while I had to keep my fucking rear under control and the E46 is a great handling car, especially on the setup i got, if I may add. Blew my mind, really.

      ​@@R03333 Relatively speaking yes, the gap will be smaller than on other tracks but the GT3 is still just faster. The Civic performance gets over-hyped too due to the Nurburgring time, since if you look at it on other tracks it's comparable to cars about 30s slower on the 'Ring.

    Also it's interesting the opinions about the rev matching between journalists and race drivers/ track enthusiasts who can hussel around a track.
    With most jurnos being like "I like to turn off rev matching so I can heel toe"
    While actually race drivers are like "great now I don't have to muck around with heel toeing so I can focus on driving"
    Difference is journals view heel toeing as something cool race drivers with skill do yet race drivers view it as an annoyance but nessarary action to avoid lock up when breaking and smooth/quick transition into a lower gear so it's ready to use as soon as you get off the brake and on to the throttle.

    Nice to see that car manufacturers know whats up, this is effective marketing, ngl my dad asked what a good work car would be(he has a choice with a set budget) and hyundai is already great with the figures and them showing how fun their "standard" /slow car can be is defenetly attracting people towards their car

    I think what this shows is that you can be the maddest, ballsiest driver, putting the car completely on the edge and driving a perfect lap, but in the end, someone with better tech in their car, better brakes, better engine better gearbox setup whatever, their limit is going to be further away and can more than make up the difference of a driver who might not be as brave or crazy.

    Watching this a year later and I found this really good…. quite informative too, since the slower N line car still has decent pace. It would be silly if the comparison involved a car with a 0 to 60 of around 14 seconds ……the standard slow car.

      To be fair, ethan does seem like the kinda dude to.....play up the drama a bit, if it gets him some attention. I mean when they do those top gear kinda challenges he called alex's girlfriend and asked her to call and lie to alex and stall him. Which is funny, but eeeesh : p we all know someone like ethan, lots of us are even friends with a person like that, it's why it's hilarious to watch him in this position that all us car people would be eternally grateful for, and just kinda whine and simper and hand-wring his way through it lol

    I hope you guys read this comment. I honestly wish you all would get a TV show I think we all know it would be a huge success just like your UA-cam channel, it's just that damm good. All three of you have the individual personalities that we need to see on a show and 100% on par with Clarkson, may n Hammond. Please keep up the content and fingers crossed some 1 or 2hr specials. Love it.
