Tony tony owns the 918 by the way can you rev up your card to see if it sounds any better than this because this sounds rubbish you’re a soft limiter 4000 rpm anyway let’s crack on let’s race him off the line oh will he come back at me though oh oh he’s coming now he’s coming in he’s coming you left me at the start there’s a bit slow off the line would
You like another go you know best two out of three because i’m a sportsman yeah i’d definitely have another go let’s have another go closer this time oh he’s coming now that was close i think you might have had me on the line what do you reckon yeah i think there’s about four or five foot in there it’s one each this is the decider oh sleep oh you
Know what that means don’t you tony we’ve got to do it again i was just disqualified three two one yeah i think you jumped that time tony so it’s one jump each i think oh good start by him he’s ahead there’s no i’m gonna catch him dark he’s pulling now you know what tony there’s fair you got a better start than me you were ahead and you stayed ahead in
Fact you started to gap me a bit more i think we pretty much hit that one on the nail you mean we pretty much hit the nail on the head i think we hit the nail on the head with the start yeah that’s that’s right so then what exactly happened while the 918 spider won completing the standing quarter mile in 10.2 seconds the 911 turbo has finished in 10.4 seconds
Now we have a rolling race from 50 miles an hour cars are in their normal setting so hybrid for the 918 i’m just in normal automatic mode for the gearbox i’m going to count it in now three two one go kick down always gone but oh in hybrid mode what’s hello hello so tony that was interesting in hybrid mode it didn’t give you full power did it nowhere near it
What’s the mode after hybrid there’s just sport and after sport what do you get right if you go into sport mode still in the automatic mode not manual shifting i’m going to go into my sport mode as well and we’ll do the same thing again all right three two one go oh that took off so quick oh he’s getting full power now look at that and with the hybrid system it
Just takes off much quicker yeah it did a little better the hybrid system really helps with that initial pickup as well also being naturally aspirated you get a beautiful throttle response okay now we have a rolling race this time in our races sportiest setting and in manual mode for the gearbox so roll on in third gear from 50. here we go i’m going to count it
In three two one go oh i thought i’d have him with a turbo boost but no it’s gone again bugger it another easy victory for you there my dear your car does cost almost 10 times this which really puts into perspective that 992 such a fast car it is a really good car it’s come so far finally then we can have a brake test from 100 miles an hour we’re going to
See which car stops in the shortest distance if you’d rather watch the call drag race with that 918 click on the pop-out button up there i’ll put the link in the description below if not stay with me and we’ll see what happens come on turbo s you got this win something i’d like it a little bit closer and the result reversed slightly as well i think i’m probably
About a meter ahead of you maybe a bit less it’s very close but you did win damn you can’t win them all man i didn’t win any really often one drag race anyway i hope you enjoyed the video if you did give it a like let me know what you thought of this drag race in the comments below click on those windows there for some more videos on that box there for a special
