@@sylvaind.6786 They didn't say that did they.. it's a comparison of torque responsiveness and it's 100% true. HP is ofc just applied torque. And 20hp IS relevant just not the only factor.

A 959 will do 0-60 in 3.7 seconds And crack 200 Which is fast by today's standards A Ferrari F40 will do 0-60 in 3.8 seconds (with good launch) If we compared that to a modern stock Carrera 4s Or an Audi R8 rwd Or a Toyota GR supra Just to name a few examples I think it could be close
not many ownsers will someone let their old and very very rare and expensive cars launch. But it wouldnt be the first time on this channel, that they are not allowed to launch but rolling races are still done
Right! But I think it should have performed even better, considering the much bigger weight and worst aero (the R8 Coupé would’ve been the perfect match and a different story), plus the broader power/torque band.
All these particulate filters are not just ruining the sound but also the performance. The previous gen R8 V10 Perf did the 1/4 mile in 10.7 seconds. The latest with all the emission crap doesn't even seem to go below 11 seconds...
this wasn't even a fair race, regardless, the cheaper corvette c8 beat the porsche 911 down the quarter mile in carwows video. It's of course cheaper, it didn't win at all lmao. americans a have always been #1 in value and performance
YAAAAAASSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!RACING DRIVER !!!!!!!!!!!!! We adore HIM & Look fwd to the driver reveal @ the beginning of each new video to see who is gonna be out there driving, is my STIG, only BETTER! I want an autographed jacket like his so Badly. Special RDS episodes ??? I have a few others on my Fav. Drivers List, but I just can't get enough of RDS!!!!!!
I’d agree with that. The 992 GTS has 480hp and is within 0.1s for the 1/4m. Another 120hp on top of that should make a significant difference, mid 10’s maybe? I’d guess the 4S is less than 550hp as the R8 is at least 100kg heavier and less aerodynamic but pulls harder at the top, which it shouldn’t if the 911 actual had 600hp...
I know that its easy to get supercars but can you do something more difficult and ambitious like drag racing Opel Calibra vs Ford Cougar vs Honda Prelude vs Peugeot 406 Coupe vs Mazda MX6 vs Toyota Celica vs Hyundai Coupe vs Mitsubishi Eclipse?
We need Topgear/GT level content!!!! Team Carwow, i have been following you guys for a long time now. I love how things have worked out and where you guys have reached! An incredible journey!! You have an incredible crew that can give us content like Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond!! A lot of us would appreciate any content like that!!
People got bored with those ultra edited staged videos. The reason carwow drag races has so much success is because they are short, easy to watch and sometimes unpredictable.
That Audi is absolutely stunning of course but man Porsches are the king. It just fires of the line. They are something else entirely. As usual awesome race. 😅😎💪
@@soulsweeper1630 Still tuned... Also It's not a base model, it's a 4S.. And it's Turbo *TUNED* vs N/A *stock* Spyder and weight way more... You Porsche fan are hilarous. If the Porsche lost to a tuned car you would all say "bUt iT wAs NoT fAiR"... Also even heavily tuned the 992 Turbo S lose to any TT R8s in the Drag Racing world so what's your point ?
Considering the time of the Porsche, its weight and the way the Audi catches it at the higher speeds....either it is not so light, or it doesn't have more than 560....570hp at best. I think it will be quite interesting to see that Carrera 4s against the old Turbo S with 580hp.
@@rustler08Aerodynamics won't play a role in that case, cause I'm pretty sure the Carrera 4s has even less drag than the 991.2 Turbo S, let alone the gt3 models for example. The turbochargers for sure are undersized for 600hp. You will have a very hard time to get 600hp out of Carrera 4s just with a remap and exhaust. Most of the stage 2 tuned 992 carrera S/4s are around 550hp.
@@rustler08Of course the other factors at play are important, but the tune is still weak. Look at what Apr and M-engineering tunes make on these S models. This tune is conservative
The kerb weight of a 992 C4S with PDK is actually around 1650KG, the quoted weight is the dry weight, which is meaningless. This is why the race was so close. Also the Porsche is claimed to have 600 bhp by the tuner, but there is no verification of this or what the exact mods are. Remember a lot of tuners overstate their gains, and/or if the charge cooling system on a forced induction car is not upgraded, heat soak can take effect sooner when the boost is increased, leading to a power loss.
II think Porsche has the absolute best launch control of almost all petrol sports cars. The best is the 911 Turbo S even original with 10.2sec. to 1/4 mile. A rocket at the start🚀
0:15 Matt hopped on the Invisalign train..good for you. Don't get the retainers after, they mess up your teeth and are hard to clean around. Ask your dentist which is better in the long run. You will have to wear the aligners every night forever tho
@Carwow why don't you include a rolling race with both cars in their optimal powerband like if 1 car is best at 50mph in 2 gear and the 2nd cars powerband is better in 3rd gear, it would be intersecting to see that.
Porsche has a lot of weight on the rear so it can use more of the rear brakes effectively and giving it that much better braking performance than other cars
Those sunset drone shots look awesome, give the drone man more footage! Some slow motion launches would look like a blast too!
Cool idea!
And speed traps at the cones!
Thats not carwow
@@R_301.1drone shots has been always amazing on these Carwow drag races.
Porsche launch and braking never fails
One thing Porsche will assure you is their launch & brakes,and it never fails.. crazy!
All that matters on the motorway is that quick acceleration to overtake top speed means nothing in the real world
@@truthinlifewoken6698 in germany it matters
they fail when they get old then you have to drop engine out on Porsche
Porsche & Audi = VAG.
Mmm hmm
Mat losing the drag pushed him from 3 out 3 to 4 out 4...Mat doesn't like to lose a race😂😂
Mat is such a baby at times
coz it was his own car...I would do the same if I was in Mat's place

The first and second rolling race is a good example of how a car with more torque will respond and a car with more hp
20hp difference is not relevant, aero is

@@sylvaind.6786i wish the Audi R8 also has ERS like the NSX.
@@TheRealHypervizorPorsche even when tuned still a little bit outclassed by even the Audi on a drag race yet braked far better than the Audi.
When Matt's own car can't win it becomes best out of seven.
Well duh, what else would you expect? 😂
Like NHL does all over again.😅
Porsche Carrera with stage 2 will give many cars a run for their money and seems like a bargain!😊 Got to love Porches!
Yanny and Matt need to race the same car but manual transmission. To see who the better driver is. That would be cool
What if Kratos drove the Audi?
@Yanny would loose😅😅..Man took Fat😂😂😂
They are comparing cars, not drivers.
That intake noise in the cabin in the R8 is absolutely incredible.
Yep. So too is the intake noise from Panoz Esperante GTR-1 and Panoz Esperante Roadster.
Love to see a 959 and f40 on this channel against some modern supercars
Should be interesting
Carwow can make it happen
AND F50
A 959 will do 0-60 in 3.7 seconds
And crack 200
Which is fast by today's standards
A Ferrari F40 will do 0-60 in 3.8 seconds (with good launch)
If we compared that to a modern stock Carrera 4s
Or an Audi R8 rwd
Or a Toyota GR supra
Just to name a few examples I think it could be close
not many ownsers will someone let their old and very very rare and expensive cars launch. But it wouldnt be the first time on this channel, that they are not allowed to launch but rolling races are still done
@@timoflo369 true didn't think about that actually

4:50 that shot into the sunset is majestic
V10 Audi was one of the coolest cars of 2010’s
I think you would certainly be happy if you owned one 😉
fs, rip
Imagine what you could get for 170k. I don't know how someone with that much money ends up with something so beige
Still is and will be missed a lot!
The aerial shots were spot on Matt
I always love the response from that 5.2L V10 when you just floor it ~~ it is instant and the sound ❤️❤️❤️❤️
The first "tuned" car I have seen that actually performs like the horsepower claimed. Bravo.
Right! But I think it should have performed even better, considering the much bigger weight and worst aero (the R8 Coupé would’ve been the perfect match and a different story), plus the broader power/torque band.
The Audi sounds so good! And Sam's face is so much fun!
We need some close-up slow mo of the launches would be an awesome addition
Those drone shots on the drag race launches are epic!!🔥👏
So glad Sams got more screen time, when are we gonna get another adventure video with Mat and Sam?
What about adventure video featuring Matt Watson and Asuna Yuuki?
Porsche just makes some of the most brilliant cars! They’re fast, fun to drive, and reliable!
.. and ugly.. looks like a frog 🐸
Old school supercars vs modern hot hatches would be interesting 🤔🔥
For brake test Sam is using both engine braking and conventional braking by modulating gear changes.......hence better braking performance.....
sam's laugh after every launch is hilarious 😂
You should race that tuned 4S vs a stock turbo S see how close 103 grand gets you to the top dog 911
We would love to do it!
So when the audi is in its powerband. It mopped the floor with the 911. That was wild and very unexpected .
All these particulate filters are not just ruining the sound but also the performance. The previous gen R8 V10 Perf did the 1/4 mile in 10.7 seconds. The latest with all the emission crap doesn't even seem to go below 11 seconds...
The Audi sounds epic, looks amazing and is as fast as you need it.
R8 was the best Audi by faar from any other model.

That tuned 4s is impressive though

Great race 😍 please carwow we want race between (( Bugatti Chiron vs rimac )) 😉
Great showing for the modded 911. That’s a legit fast car!

Considering a spider, I would take the more understated 911. Cheers.
An unrealistically cool race with no less cool cars. Still, Porsche is the benchmark!
I liked the edit at 5:54, good job editor :)
These guys reactions when racing each other 6 times was historical!
Matt: 'i was getting closer each race'
Everyone: 'you never even had your car'

Carwow never disappoints ☺️
Bot comments always disappoints
@@ChArEeNMeThSuKaRealcomments like this always disappoint and disturbing
Part of how the 911 can brake so well is the rear mounted engine helps put more weight on the back tires, giving them more grip under brakes.
and sam cheats, he's down shifting whereas matt isn;t. sam isn't supposed to do it but keeps doing it
Always fun to see Matt lose in his own car 😂😂
Asuna Yuuki also loving this when Matt loses a drag race in his own car, dude! 😂
Sam’s smile and sinister chuckle was golden every time !
He is mat Watson and we are watching carwow🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
Bring Yianni back pls,Sam,Yanni and Mat,amazing trio
It doesn’t look like the 992 is pushing out 600hp. Given the way the R8 reels the Porsche in at the top end, I’d guess 550-570 hp at best.
6 to the crank maybe I'm banking my a6 could stay w it...not off launch def in a roll
I’d agree with that. The 992 GTS has 480hp and is within 0.1s for the 1/4m. Another 120hp on top of that should make a significant difference, mid 10’s maybe?
