    Thanks to @F1__German for lending us the A45 - bit.ly/F1__German-2711
    Thanks to @SS.SecuritySystems for lending us the M2 - bit.ly/SS-SecuritySystems-2711
    It’s the one you’ve all been waiting for - the new RS3 is taking on the AMG A45 S!
    …oh, but we’re not done there! We’ve also brought in a BMW M2, a Porsche Cayman GTS and a Golf R for this epic drag race!
    Right then, let’s look at the stats. Starting with the new RS3, it’s powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged 5 cylinder that puts out 400hp & 500Nm of torque. Alongside it, we have the A45, with a 2-litre turbocharged 4 cylinder that produces 420hp & 500Nm. It’s heavier than the RS3 though, weighing in at 1,625kg compared to the Audi’s 1,570kg!
    Next up we have two rear-wheel-drive cars - the BMW M2 and the Cayman GTS. Under the Bimmer’s bonnet, you’ll find a 3-litre twin-turbo straight-six that puts down 410hp & 550Nm. As for the Porsche, it’s powered by a glorious 4-litre flat-six engine that delivers 400hp & 420Nm. It’s also the lightest car here, weighing in at 1,480kg… However, it’s also the only manual in this line-up!!
    Then finally we have the Golf, with a 2-litre turbocharged 4 cylinder that puts out 320hp & 420Nm. It weighs in at 1,550kg, and it’s the cheapest car here, setting you back £40,000.
    Will it be a walkover for the Audi? There’s only one thing left to do… LET’S RACE!

      I think nearly all these AWD systems are part-time so the usual "drivetrain loss" argument is less of an issue. Not sure about the RS3 and 45s but the R definitely is. Probably what mattered more here was more cylinders - more linear delivery of power instead of a spike in the middle of the rev range like in most 2 litre 4 cyl.

What we've seen today, was the obvious performance of Audi Rs3 and that the Golf R kept up with the higher powered cars. In fact, I've hadn't seen in a long time such a good performance of a Volkswagen. They are usually kinda meh cars.

      Because of the 19inch tyres and the spoiler, it adds drag
      The non-performance pack version is faster because of the 18 inch tyres with no spoiler.

    I like your show very much, but a quick suggestion I think when doing Drag races, perhaps try to switch cars after each race just to see if it's not the driver who is having a lot of racing experience than others and that's its actually how the car performs.
