@S63jah from what I've researched, the 911 Turbo S gets less range on a full tank of gas than a Lucid Sapphire gets fully charged. Plus, the Lucid is much faster (in a straight line). It's kinda hard to find range info on a Porsche so I'm waiting for someone else to chime in.
Big props to the Audi. I thought this was going to be another cakewalk for the electric car. Like Micah said, it's crazy that a production car (of that style and weight) is accomplishing those types of drag racing performances.
@@watchmework3688 Ballast boys or not, a lot of times the electric cars still win. After the first race, I thought the Lucid would win 2 or 3 times today. They said the Audi was getting faster, but I'd sooner think the Lucid was losing power as the charge drops. Definite downside to any electric car if you can only do a few runs before you're out of power. Still showing the inevitable future though. Soon enough internal combustion vs electric will be like a prop-plane vs a jet engine. I'm just glad combustion put up a good fight.

@@4literv6 The McLaren also has about 280 HP less than this Audi too. So I’m gonna say the Sapphire would have dominated that McLaren as well, with ballast.
@@ragtop63 eh still just an ice on st tires with a transmission holding it back rwd only. Even on a track beaten to death by an experienced driver on sticky tires I doubt it would have beaten a stock plaid. The ice age ended when the p100d came out imo. 😎
The air isn't just fast acceleration, it also pulls on the high end too and keeps going, alot of evs don't do that. This thing is built for just continuing to go.
Bro exactly why I got this exact car 18’ mk3 TTRS stage 3 on E these days. Just added fuel system and plus intercooler to make stage 3 bc it stage 2 for a long time. Anyways these things are crazy fast for not a lot of difficult modding. This guy just said 1000hp on a stock transmission it’s just the billet block clutch package. Outside of that factory a GTR nor G80 could never do this and hold up. I’m don’t care to have 1000hp I love this car at exactly where it’s at and it looks stock! This i5 platform is sick iRoz has a build this just hit 7.9 in 1/4 I think not much done to the transmission on that as well which again is nuts!!!! I’ll add my car now feels like a legit race car the pulls now are I’d imagine feel supercar like and no where near the supercar price but the looks it gets feels like a poor man’s supercar! Especially when I pull up at Kroger and my little 4 year old jumps out lol!! One guy was like “that thing has a backseat can’t be an R8 what is it?” It was at that moment I knew I picked the right car this thing just cost me under $60k originally owned by a VP in Alexandria, VA! It was bone stock when I had and it’s been mine ever since 2020😊!! I almost pulled the trigger on a C8 that cost almost $40k more 😅 so glad I didn’t do that SO GLAD!!!
Id take that audi anyday of the week over any eV. It speaks volumes about driving engagement and respect from fellow car people on the road. Ill never be that soy boy in an EV.
Are you kidding? The Audi was on slicks and bare naked. The Lucid absolutely smoked it. They had to add several hundreds of pounds and do a bad start to finish even.
"Production model car vs. a built car" yeah, but y'all ever Googled the price of a Sapphire? Last I checked, it was $360,000. I dont think the TT cost that much, even with the upgrades lol
With all the mods and upgrades it would be $80K at most. It would probably beat a GT3 RS in a track race too, the Audi is lighter and faster. Honestly the TT RS has always been the best bang for your buck
All these crybabies in the comments saying “Hoonigan ain’t the same” yet here you are watching every video. Every comment helps the channel so just keep whining.
Not gonna lie - I skipped all the way to the Audi's intro and watched from there instead :D Also, it has to be said that the editing in these videos is underrated...serious lolz. #moredougplease
The most amazing thing is how close these two cars were. I could watch fifty more drag races with that match-up, I'm sure you guys can come up with some more good handicaps to apply :)
Happy to.see how cars nowadays are so incredible off the lot and you don't haft to get rid of your seats and you basically can drive your family with you and experience the speed of course with safety precautions
I love DAZAs, one of the best sounding engines ever and unlike most petrol heads I like electric cars too so the results have me feeling a little conflicted lol. A couple points, the TTRS is neither a bolt on car or full on drag car, it’s somewhere in the middle. The Lucid is 250K, so it is much more expensive but at the same time, it’s faster than everything in its prices range and all the way up into the $1 million price range, which is extremely impressive. The TTRS is a little 2.5L 5 cly so the performance tuners are able to extract from it is also very impressive. With that 6870 I still think there’s more boost to push but overall the results were very interesting. Great video
@fleetgt that's what we live for all the banter it's what made the show I mean if I wanted to watch car and driver I would have but no what the hell is going on here we want the old channel

Unreal, that Audi was incredible! The lucid is stupid fast no doubt, but there's no excitement with an EV... You can't deny their rapid acceleration etc, but they are cheat codes for lazy people who don't really enjoy/want to build a car... saying that, I'm going to drive my Model S P100D and smoke a vette...

The most amazing thing is how close these two cars were. I could watch fifty more drag races with that match-up, I'm sure you guys can come up with some more good handicaps to apply :)
A lot of people used to hate on the audi TT but i saw one at work that was getting fixed n those cars are dangerously fast modified
They still do here, if you're not a hairdresser, you're getting bullied for driving a TT xD
thanks to double clutch automatic trans and awd. but yeah its a tee tee......
😮 that Audi is FAST..!!!🔥💥❤️🤘🏼
Nothing beats the Audis
The Lucid is probably the best looking EV on the road in my opinion.
Happy to.see how cars nowadays are so incredible off the lot and you don't haft to get rid of your seats and you basically can drive your family with you and experience the speed of course with safety precautions
Glad hoonigan is back wish i got to meet ken my uncle was a subaru mechanic on the rallys with ken and trav
This was actually a great matchup
This has to be Doug’s best video yet
They should do the "fair" race twice to make sure the first one wasn't a fluke lol
I love DAZAs, one of the best sounding engines ever and unlike most petrol heads I like electric cars too so the results have me feeling a little conflicted lol. A couple points, the TTRS is neither a bolt on car or full on drag car, it’s somewhere in the middle. The Lucid is 250K, so it is much more expensive but at the same time, it’s faster than everything in its prices range and all the way up into the $1 million price range, which is extremely impressive. The TTRS is a little 2.5L 5 cly so the performance tuners are able to extract from it is also very impressive. With that 6870 I still think there’s more boost to push but overall the results were very interesting. Great video
Wow this is the most calmest this v.s. that show ever
Yeah they pre record too much and edit out the banter too much
@fleetgt that's what we live for all the banter it's what made the show I mean if I wanted to watch car and driver I would have but no what the hell is going on here we want the old channel
@@monkey0550ify yeah the new corporate owner is killing the fun. It's all about Jason Cammisa on Hagerty now.
Loved the reactions in the back of the Lucid! 😂😂😂 Georjahs Grin said it all!
Imagine the power of that electric in a roadster. Jesus.
LOVE these vids!!! id like to see yall get that challenger 170 out there! Make some calls fellas!!!
That last one gave me goose bumps. Nice race, gents.
lucid commercial was great guys thanks
Doug demuro! HONIGAN! Two of my favorite worlds collide!
You know what else has 2.5L 5 cylinder turbo that people sleep on Volvos!!!! Volvo s60R 2.5L Inline 5 turbo! Doing from 2.3L, 2.4L, and 2.5L blocks all in Volvos! Mannn Audi and Volvo been pushing those 5 cylinders! They make power!
I have two Volvo s60Rs both getting different mods :) ones an 05 ones an 07. Super reliable sleepers! AWD too!
Damnnnn ttrs is my dream car 😩😩
Baby Croc 🐊💪🏽💪🏽
Unreal, that Audi was incredible! The lucid is stupid fast no doubt, but there's no excitement with an EV... You can't deny their rapid acceleration etc, but they are cheat codes for lazy people who don't really enjoy/want to build a car... saying that, I'm going to drive my Model S P100D and smoke a vette...
Audi TTRS with drag slicks being described as a “sleeper”! In what universe does this qualify as a sleeper? 😂
Win or lose. That's nasty fast.. big difference in tire too. I'm impressed
The lucid is the fastest appliance on wheels. No ICE, not a car!
ok i rate this 7.5/10 for a TvT, the TT's jump on the 2nd race soured it, but that last bonus round, while there was still a jump from the TT, it was a really close race. ive enjoyed this episode.
First run was solid, Doug has that reaction time on point the lucid gets out 😮💨
