OVERRATED? ..TUNED VW GOLF R vs TUNED VW GOLF GTI

Today we are comparing two different versions of the same hot-hatch, to check which one is really the fastest after the modification. Today it's front-wheel drive vs. four-wheel drive, power to mass vs. grip. Today it's the respected VW Golf GT vs. the famous VW Golf R. And we'll find out which one of them, if any, is over-advertised at all. Let's move on and meet today's pilots. First, representing team GT, Ryan enters the competition, driving his 2015 Savage 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged VW Golf GTi from 2015, with the Mk7 performance package and 2L engine. He'll face Conor, representing team R, driving his 2016 2016 Mk7 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged VW Golf R with the 400-HP M engine. And as usual, we'll take all today's race data from our tools to measure the times in Box Performance Box Touch GPS. Okay, guys, that's how we do it. Today it's Golf vs. GTi, four-wheel drive vs. front-wheel drive. And we'll start with the owner of Golf, Bar. Welcome to the channel. Thank you for the invitation, I warmly invite you. Now you're competing with the GTi, which of course has a slightly limited grip compared to your car with a four-wheel drive. How do you imagine this day in a quarter-mile race? I'd like to say that I beat him in both races. Okay, but he obviously has more power. I hope I can catch up with him in a quarter-mile. Rallying races can be difficult for me. Okay, but you're still pretty sure you can even do something in rallying? Yes. Yes, that means the power difference is only 30 horsepower. It's much lighter. Mim. So? Okay. We'll see. Okay, okay, okay. Hi, sir. Welcome to the channel. You have more power than this guy, but you only have front-wheel drive. How do you feel in drag races? I feel like I could take part in a drag race. I don't know, but Rolka might have a chance. Okay, so if something goes wrong, you think you'll catch up with him? I would say the same. I think that when turning, it should win, you know. But listen, we have to remember that all dinosaurs are different and these two are not very different in power. You know what I mean? So there's not much to talk about. Eee, traction will be your problem. Weight will be your problem. Basically. So can we shake hands, guys? Because we're both family, right? VW family. And, uh, let's race. And first, let's go to these quarter-mile races. Heat. Hey, you know what? I was supposed to say that the GTI won and I'll probably still stick to it, but from my point of view, I've always been wrong. So I don't even know why I'm saying this. Like Golf R, I'm going back a little bit, but I'll say that Golf GTI. Meta, meta, who won and how much? It was a victory for GTI by about two lengths of the car. It's a cut race. It's not some colossal difference. It's quite interesting. Let's put it back and try again. Heat. Well, it was a race that anyone could try. Then it seemed much closer to me. I only heard that they have to have the same gear ratio. Probably not. So I'll probably mix it all up. But anyway, bro. Let's find out who won. The cameraman even says, yes, meta. Meta, who won and how much? It was a victory for Golf GTI by about two points. Okay, great. Yes, it's crazy. You know what, guys? Honestly, from the place I'm standing in, it looks like I'm saying it. Honestly, I'm not that blind. You know what I mean? I have a slight vision impairment, but I'm not that blind. Anyway, GTI is now winning roller racing. We thought it would happen. I think he has a difficult task ahead of him now, because that's what the golfer really shines in. And the first round belongs to Ryan and Golf GTI fans. But now we're entering the Golf Playground. It's a quarter-mile race. Put your bets in the ledger. Ready? Ready, start, start. Yes, yes. I think we all know what happened there. Golf won. But I wonder if he won with the same advantage as Golf GTI and won in rollers? Let's find out. Meta, meta, who won and how much? So it was a difference in the length of the bus to a gold coin. I don't think you would have won thanks to the bus connection. Okay, great. Let's put them in order. Let's go again. And then I think it's time for a bonus round. Ready? Ready, ready, start, start. Yes, I don't know why I did it again, expecting a different result. Almost everyone knew it would happen. However, in the name of science, we intend to diversify the situation. So a bonus round where three people have to enter their golf. You can come with a golf party, right? You are needed there. And we need two. You. Yes. It falls off. Three. Yes. Let's go. All right. Super. All right. So that's what we're doing. We call it free and free, right? Because that's what it looks like. Guys, that's what we came up with. It's easy to say. Free length of the car at the beginning and free passengers. Let's race. Eee, this time you'll have to drive them by Uber to a quarter of a mile. All right? Yes. So eee, yes. If everyone could jump, it would be great. Boy, fasten your seat belts, please. Yes. Listen, team Golf GT, I'm good for you. We call it free and free. Yes. He gets free passengers, and you will also get a free length of the car at the start. Yes. And let's hope you can do it. Yes. Good man, bring her forward. Brother, bring her forward. All right. That's one. Two. Three. All right. It will be interesting. Ready? Ready. Start. Gapozaurus. Oh. All right. Well, we tried. We tried. And today is a really nice, warm, dry day. So you know that Golf GTi will not be faster during a normal day in England. Well, now we know. Buy a Golf GTi if you want to go fast. Buy a Golf R if you want to go fast. Here you go. How did you feel then? Petrol taxi. Petrol taxi now. Guys, there was no mercy there. I thought it would be a little closer. They were only 0.7 slower. Really? Yes. Jesus. These are the advantages of driving four wheels and a Golf car. I think you already know. Now we know. So let's take a look at the fastest time from 100 to 200 km per hour achieved by these couples while driving using V-Box PBT and data separation using the Racine Logic test software. And what's interesting, only Golf GTi records the correct time at 100 to 200 km per hour at 9.22 seconds. Golfista, unfortunately, was not able to record the time of 100 to 200 km per hour at a given distance. And then take a look at the fastest achieved quarter-mile times. Yes, you guessed it. Golf is the fastest, overcoming the distance in 11.83 seconds at a speed of 116 miles per hour, about 1.3 seconds faster than Golf GTi, which achieved the best time of 13.13 seconds. But what's interesting, at the identical speed of 116 miles per hour, it shows extremely similar starting power. And then take a look at the fastest achieved times from 0 to 60. Yes, it was always supposed to be a victory for Golf R, which achieved 60 in just 3.4 seconds, beating the best time from 0 to 60 VW Golf GTi, which is 5.2 seconds. These are data confirming the results. And the second round belongs to Conor and Golf R fans, so today, for the sake of good learning, we set two iconic hooks with similar power in a row, but in different drive systems. And literally everything went exactly as we expected GT and took over from the track, and R races, which raises the question, which of them is really the fastest on the street? You see, from time to time there is a slight acceleration from under the lights, but much less than the meeting of an enthusiastic motorization fan when you are already on the road. And since we're talking about it, I would even go so far as to say that on a dry road, in normal driving conditions, GTi will be a faster car and probably also on the track. Regardless of what you are striving for, a huge applause for both boys for standing at the top of the task today and giving a testimony to culture. And after today's results, let us know in the comments which of them you would prefer to destroy the rural Bero Golfer or Golf GT and why.
