50k? You can get a Lotus Elise for that money. Or a Caterham Seven 340. Those are proper road legal cars. It's kinda silly how they're really riding the "affordable" horse here, but then it's really expensive compared to other options like kit cars, which can be made road legal easily too.
Their market isn't every day Joe's wanting a fun street car, it's fairly well off people that want to go racing. $50,000 for a capable track platform is way cheaper than a 911 GT3 R ($570,000) all with a fraction of the running costs. Compared to the other cars that you mentioned in the price bracket, the money that is spent on making the Lotus and Caterham more road oriented is repurposed into components on the Sierra that are better rated for demanding track use and are easier to adjust and replace. When it comes to the world of track driving and racing you reach a point where you need a dedicated platform and oftentimes buying something that was designed from the ground up is cheaper than building up a road car, and that's why the Sierra exists. It was kind of disingenuous for the creator of this video to try and pit it up against road oriented supercars because that's not what it is.
@@barnsnoble7066you could get a locost built to whatever spec you wanted for less which is based on a Caterham chassis. It's been a while since I looked at them but I'm pretty sure they weren't that expensive.
Speed is probably limited by gear AND aero. We run Thunder Roadsters and they basically hit a wall around 125MPH unless drafting. Power to weight is awesome but it takes HP for top speed and 200hp isn’t enough. BTW a Thunder Roadster is $25,000-40,000.
It's not really very useable. Porsche/Ferrari/Lamborghini, all of these are much more useable, you can pack tons of groceries or suitcases in them. A car needs to be more than a toy.
Then buy a Corvette if you want a daily supercar killer. You can grab a C8 Z06 that beats almost every supercar or hypercar on the track for $138k if you want the Z07 package and carbon wheels.
yea but it wouldn't be nearly as fast without heavy modifications. but my main issue is that it doesn't seat two people. experiencing all that fun alone seems to defeat the purpose.
I build my own Turbo for less than £5k, I have driven it everyfuckingwhere, it will do 0to 60 in under 2.0 & over 220, alas my Sphincter gave out at 190mph, I'm both reckless & fearless in equal measure, but I'm not fukn Stupid, I leave that to others. These things turn in their own wheelbase, who the fuck needs reverse?
😂😂 are you kidding me You can beat a Ferrari all you want to there are lots of cars that can be a Ferrari. but it's still not a Ferrari .Ferrari has cemented its name in history And all this is is a go kart with a motorcycle engine 😂😂
Ferrari is overpriced for the performance you get. I could get a C8 Z06 that slaps any Ferrari production car to ever come out of Italy on race tracks for less than half the price. 😂 Ferrari charges you for its name and you still don't own the car, they can tell you what you can and can't do with it
Did you just say swapping the tires turns it from on road to a rock crawler 😂🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ nothing about 2 wheel drive racing around in sand dunes is rock crawling 🤦♂️ like who wrote the script for this
Size doesn't matter but price matters
motorcycle is always the answer
Right. That's why I get the hooker with A cups cause the C cup charge's a bit more.
@@QuickshiftCars yes
@@OneZoNinja that's good..I guess. Because both of them come with free Stds😂
I don’t care that these are unaffordable… its that they say they are… a toy that is north of 20k is not affordable. The end.
for 1:2.5 power to weight ratio, it’s damn affordable
Compared to Can Ams and other street legal UTVs this is pretty cheap. Especially the 700R at $40k
How is this a supercar killer when top speed is 121? It's cool but for the price no thanks.
Not sure how the word affordable got associated with this car. $41k for the base model is not affordable.

A lotus Elise is like driving a Barbie car. Your comparing apples to planes . 🤦♂️
@@tylerseabook9423 I think the 'apples to oranges' phrase would have done since they are both cars after all 😁
These are race cars, and at $50k for something essentially track ready and being that fast, that is cheap.
It's a kartcross nothing new here people been making them at home for a very long time.
Literally looks like a dirt oval car without the big wing lol.

Na it's about transmission not hp
You can install a longer final drive and hit 158mph limited by aero
It's just an overpriced crosskart.
there are cheaper options.
You get very little in the way of a car for such a giant pricetag, would be better to get something more bang for your buck like a DDR kit
Size doesn't matter but money does matters.😢
Might I recommend hot wheels 👍
We've been doing this in Europe for more than 40 years... It is called speed-kart, or Cross-kart....
Over here in the states we call them Cross-Karts and...yep nothing new, normally far cheaper then this over priced crap-kart.
@@Thorgon-Crosswho else even sells them lol.
@@jayknight139 Almost all of them are built by the owner from plans for just a couple thousand.
This can go fast everwhere...what a phenonenal machine 😎
I remember the first time I booted up FH5 I noticed it and bought it as fast as I could lol
"uNIqUe SPaCeFrAMe chaSSiS!!" jesus these videos are bad...

The Next Generation professional UTV Go-Kart
As a fun racecar, it’s affordable. If we talk street oriented sports cars too, buy a Lotus Elise for give or take the same amount of money.
yea but it wouldn't be nearly as fast without heavy modifications. but my main issue is that it doesn't seat two people. experiencing all that fun alone seems to defeat the purpose.
And I thought that Mcmurthy is a dwarf.
If i got 50k jumpchange i also got 75k jumpchange. So who is the market for this? Who would buy the 200hp version?
The funny part is that you could just buy the 700R version and buy a part out street bike motor and a cheap ebay turbo and make 350whp for under $50k
Like it more as an off-roader 👍
How do you buy?
A car u can literally died in!😂 I'll take a Porsche or lotus!
I'd love to have one or maybe two.
id like to drive this in a most wickedd way
What is the chances of making it street legal?
This is nothing new, its simply an American copy of the Rally CrossKart. They've been around for over 20 years in Europe.
Rod ends in bending
any car that can drive more than 20 miles can beat a Ferrari because it will EXPLODE
So, they are aiming for a more street friendly cross -car..
I'm not sure if they *intended* for it to be street legal, but I know people have tried to register them in the states.
@@QuickshiftCarsSierra Cars now offers street legal kits to install from the factory
this isn't a car though.
Any car can accelerate at 10m/s^2
I build my own Turbo for less than £5k, I have driven it everyfuckingwhere, it will do 0to 60 in under 2.0 & over 220, alas my Sphincter gave out at 190mph, I'm both reckless & fearless in equal measure, but I'm not fukn Stupid, I leave that to others.

Meh. Not road legal.

my friend told me that 😂
Doesn't sound deadly at all
safety doesnt as well
Me want one
now it's afghanistan supercar
I'll upload a short about that soon ;)
@@QuickshiftCars thanks
