OMG so much better format! And no 20 min intro. You just get to the business. Thank you! And Ben Collins is a plus! Might these 2 take these cars around a track too? That would be fun. Tiff vs. Ben!
This is a great video - there's plenty of TV production companies that should take note of these UA-cam channels. Jonny Smith has gone his own way too, perhaps TV is dead?! Long live the TV!
Bravisimo Lovecars team. Good brave move to add a comparison video of old school. Just the voice of Tiff Needel is more than enough for me at 6am in Australia! Stay safe and keep in good health. I promise we will do that trip together soon. (Dear legend that is Paul, stop wearing your high school hoodies. I know you have Lovecars branded jackets).
Ben and Tiff...now this is proper motoring. Next suggestion is to add short rolling races coming around that bend behind the starting line and nailing it side by side from one marker to reach another marker further down the track.
Two of the best drivers in the business in the hot hatches and you do a drag race. I mean , I REALLY want to love your content, I love the presenters, but who cares about drag races? Two cars that should be a riot to rock around and you only drive in a straight line. Hell, you could have taken a SUVs or minivans if you don't intend to use cars for an intended purpose. I really don't want to say this, but there are many missed opportunities of a proper head to head.
Ok. Now I got confused. How come sport mode is better than race mode? These guys from Renault. It was like suddenly the car woke up and just went off like "we have 3 minutes to catch that train". I was about to write that the torque really loses its effectiveness when the 3rd gear engages, but on the last run, everything was different. Still, Tiff made a great difference. It's not easy at all to get the best acceleration and get great gear change at the right rpm. That's why the manual is always the best. It's about working hard to get the best result.
An automatic mini, that says it all! Apart from that it’s a fantastic video to see two absolute legends behind the wheel. Both of you should be on Top Gear with Chris Harris. Love this channel 😉
Two cars designed specifically to go around corners as quickly as possible....... tested for accelerating in a straight line instead. When will these tedious drag races ever end? Even IF there aren't any tracks open at the minute - throw some cones around a car park somewhere instead: these two cars are small enough to have a decent crack at it!
We did a full review and track test too. All 20 minutes of it. This tedious drag race is a bonus video that a lot of people enjoy. It's fair to say we have covered every single base with these cars and videos!
You can clearly see automatic is so much better nowadays. No need to fumble around with a gearstick and a clutch pedal. Especially in my daily car I will never go manual again. Love me some DSG.
Which one for you? MINI or Megane?
Megane easy. Mini looks too daft, and manual is 💪🏁
Megane for me - Mini looks rediculous.
Definitely Megane for me.
Neither, but the Megane is miles better than the Mini
Megane for sure!
Ben & Tiff in one video, wow. Two legends.
Thank you!
Balls of tea
The Stig v The Stig
These two with Chris Harris would have made a great Top Gear trio.
Plus a crazy head like May or Hammond
I swear to god, I’ve never seen a dry road whenever they do these tests from the UK

Glad you enjoyed it! We listened to you guys! Promise you won't see another "Real World Drag Race" on this channel again!
@@lovecarsTV Definitely can tell! Thank you for listening!
This is a great video - there's plenty of TV production companies that should take note of these UA-cam channels. Jonny Smith has gone his own way too, perhaps TV is dead?! Long live the TV!
Thanks! Jonny is fantastic - plus "TV quality" videos from the likes of Auto Trader / Carfection et al. It's a good place to be!
Two top drivers right there.
Absolutely!
Throw Chris Harris into the equation and you have the top three drivers. Imagine them fronting a car show!
The STIG vs Emergency STIG
Try, try, try again until Tiff gets a win. Ye that’ll work😂😂😂
The STIG vs Tiff
The race we all wanted
Yep, that's what car fans need. Hope to see you both soon. And may be with some bends or cones, 3way turns, handbrake turns, etc. You made my day.
Never clicked so fast before
Ha! Good to hear!
Yes! You've nailed the drag race formula! Brilliant just. Also love what's happening at 2:52
We listened to you guys! No more "Real World Drag Races" on this channel!
Now this is a drag race format I can get behind! Well done, lads.
😁👍
Yeeeeeeees!!! That is why I moaned before. The one off races are fun but when they can be this good and close do more. Awesome vid 👍
Thanks John! We gave the real world stuff a good try, but you've seen the last of those videos!
Renault 👍
😁👍

Ha! Thank you as always Dr Manu!
Great pairing of two legends - Tiff v Ben 👌more pairing challenges please 🙏
😎👍
Manual vs automatic! Rolling race is what happens in real life! 👍
That's true Tom!
Real life is not about a long, strait piece of tarmac. Real life is about a track day laps after laps
The Mini is faster🤷♂️
@@Rethi1981 the mini is faster but you go faster in the Renault.
@@robinmarples5198 🤯
Didn't realise this is a rivalry that I needed.
😁👍
'Excellent drag race. This and Paul's EV charging "rant" video have been amongst lovecars' best offerings to date. Keep up the good work and thanks.
Two Stigs in a video together? I'm in
😂👍
Nothing stops Tiff power, well done son... :-)
😎👍
What a race! Both so close!!
Ben and Tiff...now this is proper motoring. Next suggestion is to add short rolling races coming around that bend behind the starting line and nailing it side by side from one marker to reach another marker further down the track.
much more impressed with the manual 4 door car

Well look at what the cat dragged in... it’s good to see you stiggy. Cheers Tiff and the rest of the team.
Two fantastic drivers and you put them to use doing something any youtuber could do, drive in a straight line with the foot flat 😞
We did a full review and track test too. This is a bonus video
@@lovecarsTV ah!! Now that is one I’ll have to watch 👍🏼
Great to see Tiff chomping at the bit!
He always is! Think he would have stayed until the MINI ran out of petrol just to get a win!
this is brilliant
Glad you enjoyed it Sander 😁👍
You can keep this formula, Ben and Tiff drag racing, epic......
Tiff,
Please have Ben on as a regular for the show.
The two of you work great together.
Regards,
We enjoy having guest drivers and hope Ben joins us again soon!
So glad you took the critics' advice 👍
What the point to do a drag race about 2 cars that the last thing they are made for is drag race???
Ben let him win the last one obviously...
Do more of these, they're class 👏👌🙌👍.
Track prepared cars not doing a track battle but a drag race....
We did a full review and track test too. This is a bonus video

I like both of them but love my Corolla diesel
Corolla ftw!
Have these two drivers every time.
765 LT 🆚 918 Spyder Drag Race 🏁
Tiff i'm so gad to actually see you in a car again. Please do more :)
Stay tuned. 👍😁
Tiff is KING💪 Always the best imo since the late 80s when I was a teen......
Tiff, definitely has a fan club! 😁👍
Nice video yes it is but great video and far far more interesting would be a lap battle, that is what those two cars are made for not drag races
Hi Spiros! We did a full review and track test too. This is a bonus video
Loving Tiff and Ben videos
Please can you add a rolling race too
Manual enthusiasts make me giggle always an excuse for consistently losing to automatics! 😂😂😂
Nice handbrake turn tiff!!
Have a go on a country road. You'll see how the Megane kickass
The Megane will kickass whilst also trying to keep with the mini
I can't believe Mr Tiff has a DW fashion watch, its just sad I know he had a JLC Master Chronograph
Brilliant road test, I think Ben was getting bored, and let Tiff have one?
Renault Mégane RS trophy R is better than other cars 🇨🇵🔥
Nice vid
Thank you 😁

Both of you should be on Top Gear with Chris Harris. Love this channel 😉
Must be hard getting gapped by autos id be butthurt aswell 😂
God damn thats stig innit
The master and apprentice, great video
TIFF VS THE OLD STIG HMMMMM!!
😁👍
I reckon Tiff was the white stig at some stage
Jimmy Carr v Frankie Howerd
Only want to be fast in a straight line? buy the auto, want to be engaged in the drive? take the manual every time 🙂
This is better👍
Glad you're a fan 😁
Auto vs manual? This is not a comparison
Not easy to beat ben..the all rounder
Having a regular 2020 RS Megane manual I knew straight away it would be a struggle to win this in Damp conditions, surprised you did.
Drove a manual trophy, spun in 3rd in the wet. Great car, hugely engaging.
trophy r vs honda civic please !!!!!!!!!!!
2 litre vs 1.8 litre. automatic vs manual. Can't do much about it...
Guys with a whole track to use why didn't you do a lap in each to really show where each model shines? These are not cars you buy to win a drag race.
We did! Here it is ua-cam.com/video/fet5o_8B2rk/v-deo.html
why this megane create nurburgring lap record？
They should have swapped lanes....and go best of 11
Some say.....
😎👌
Renault rs 🔝💜
😎👌
One of the guys was getting greedy with those wins... all we know is... he's called the pig xD
Ben was the more relaxed in his automatic MINI!
@@lovecarsTV Lol, I was just joking

Mini Cooper top speed 164mph?!?! Who would dare...
Easy ;)
I'd like to have seen stings cousin
GR YARIS for the win!
think we're the only car channel on YT to not drive one yet!
No Mini is faster even it s a traction
@@micdav2000 no, no it isnt - not even close
Old stig vs old stig😂
Awsome people appear in this video but it remains boring af....
You can clearly see automatic is so much better nowadays. No need to fumble around with a gearstick and a clutch pedal. Especially in my daily car I will never go manual again. Love me some DSG.
These FWD drag races are tedious
Fire the soundman 😡
Wish we had one to fire.
@@lovecarsTV 🤣🤣🤣
😉 It wasn't the best on this, sorry Christopher! Small budgets and trying to fit too much in. Thanks for the feedback and for the understanding! 👍
@@lovecarsTV Love the channel. One of my favorites!
