VW Golf R vs VW Golf GTI PP vs VW Golf GTD | Top Gear: Drag Races

[HanssieBlackCaptain]

James May once said:
"Top gear drag races, proving what you can figure out from the performance stats."

[TwoPlusTwoEqualsFive]

Who are these people and why are they so boring?

[khalidalnajjar]

Oh an actual race.. that's new.. I was expecting something like a Bugatti vs an old disabled asian lady and the bugatti driver just acts so amazed that he won.

[jayjay]

can't wait for the grand tour to start

[mbmedia]

Top gear is so shit with out Clarkson hammered and Captain slow

[richy]

This is just the magazine, not the tv show, when will people learn -.-

[zelalemmekonnen]

Why do it if you know which is gonna win before it starts.

[davidhayes]

I agree with other folk. This test at least has one sensible component: the GTI vs GTD. It would have been closer with the non p.p. GTI. However the GTD scores not as a drag weapon but as an efficient A/B road cruiser. It would have been more informative to do a proper road comparison between these two.

Instead of having a Ferrari 458 vs. a Fiat next time they'll have a Aston Martin V8 vs. an Aston Martin V8 vs. an Aston Martin V8

People complaining need to know that this is top gear magazine and has been around before the 2002-2015 top gear series.

[barneyonmovies]

These aren't the new Top Gear this is Top Gear magazine!!

[sloff]

THIS ISN'T THE NEW TOP GEAR, THIS IS THE TOP GEAR MAGAZINE. ITS BREN ATOUND FOR AGES. Period.

[NicholasG]

I haven't even watched the video but based on the other horrible drag race videos they do, I predict the fastest car will win

EDIT: I stand corrected

[TheAmeteurAssassins]

The slowest car came last..thank you for the consumer advice there

[xTeaspoonz]

From the dislikes and comments, you'd think that Clarkson, Hammond and May are never going to be on a show again because they're no longer on Top Gear... you people are ridiculous.

[MikeDragon]

So that's all what Top Gear (channel) does now? Drag races? Wow. So "Top".

[nemosplaylist]

I really like how they post all of the performance times for the cars before they race them, and then wow! look at that, the ones with the faster times that we already know win. who would of thought?!?!

[vinnisahai]

I got the notification for this video while I was watching the real top gear on netflix...

[callumcurtis]

This is an amazing discovery the car with the most hp won and the one with the least how strange.

[andrew_ep_curtis]

All the people commenting about the death of TOP Gear based on this video, do not realise that this channel is about Top Gear Magazine, not the TV show.
