  • Hank from ‪@IrozMotorsport‬ brought out his 1700hp Twin Turbo V10 “street car” to give a brand new Tesla Model S Plaid a run for its money. Since THIS vs THAT isn’t on a prepped track Hank had to turn the power down to keep the R8 planted to the track. Will that be enough to take down a bone stock Tesla Model S Plaid though? Hit that play button and enjoy the show!

      Listen if you're on the race game you gotta understand the electric car the plant will be all of these 67 800 horsepower cars 900 even like around a 1000 horsepower but that's a whole different technology compared to gas motors the plants are really a piece of s*** take my word for my friend has won hes been telling me how great it is when he 1st bought it I took him out on the highway here and Cleveland with my 1400 horsepower Nissan GTRI beat him so bad I gave him a 5 car length's Head Start and before we hit the half a mile mark I must have been 25 cars ahead of him so yes they're fast but they're not fast Fast. Stick with your gas motor cars and build them and don't worry about these electric s*** cars let them run in a category all their own which is what I'm all for let him run electric against electric and stairway from the gas..

It's fine for a family of 4 or 5 if they want a toy around and you know f*** around with all the stupid s*** you have to do with them just not worth it but there's no way that I'm worried about anything that Elon is gonna come up with Because the minute he comes up with something that will beat my Nissan 1400 horsepower GTR I'll just make it 1800 and we can play that game all the way down..

      @@erwinmonti5066 What if the Roadster has 2000hp+? VERY achievable for Tesla to do. At that point the only way to win is to have better tires but then it isn't about the car anymore. It is easy for Full ev's to increase HP literally just need to add more motors.
      The problem ev's face is range unlike a petrol car where you can just add a bigger fuel tank for an ev it isn't that simple. However the range issue is going away.
      Why don't you test drive a Tesla? They're safer, require almost zero maintenance (Until 600k miles when you replace the battery).
      So you can use an ev for over 100k miles with no service while a petrol car wouldn't even function as you need oil changes brake repairs etc. EV's have regen braking which uses the motors.

      Rimac is only 0.5s faster than Plaid on 1/4 mile. It would get mopped by R8 especially if R8 used top map instead of only 1200 or 1400whp.

    It would be so great if the plaid came with an option of a red body with yellow pillars. Like the old toddler toy car.

      Idk you but the 2020+ rs6 you have in your yt banner is such a nice colour combo with wheels and paint, if it's yours then you have some nice cars.

    I genuinely look forward to seeing some sort of less expensive Nevera to hoon around with. Then we can really get some even more savage races. Someday the last race will be decided. Til then, long live turbos!

    Yes the Plaid is fast...but after a while it get's kinda of boring. A powerful ICE is in another level of sensorial experience.

      Boring my ass. I'd do nasty things to have a car that quick off the line. It might be a one-trick pony, but holding on for dear life while your car yeets itself at the horizon probably never gets old, silence or no.
