Porsche 918 Spyder v Red Bull MotoGP Bike: DRAG RACE

.............................................................

Thanks to @Petrolheadonism for supplying Tony and his 917 Spyder!

Introducing the pinnacle of car vs bike drag races - Porsche 918 Spyder vs Red Bull MotoGP bike!!

That’s right, we’ve finally got our hands on a 918 Spyder, and it’s going head-to-head over the quarter-mile against MotoGP legend Dani Pedrosa and a Red Bull KTM RC16 from the 2021 MotoGP season!

So let’s take a look at the stats - starting with the Porsche, it’s powered by a 4.6-litre naturally-aspirated V8, coupled with two electric motors, which combine to produce 887hp and 1,280Nm of torque! It’s equipped with all-wheel drive and tips the scales at 1,674kg.

But of course, the bike is oh-so-much lighter, with the bike and rider combining to weigh in at just 200kg! Its 1000cc engine can also put down 270hp.

So what do you think, will the bike walk it? Or will it be a photo finish? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

I think the Porsche owner deserves a big shoutout. Man seemed like a proper motorsport guy not even limited to cars.

So good to see Dani Pedrosa! We’ve missed him in MotoGP as a full time rider, truly one of the best never to win a championship!

[pnevma]

So the MotoGP kept up with the 918 for the first 200m, while in 1st gear, doing a wheelie AND spinning the rear wheels? That is incredible 😮

[ankushnothere]

When I read the MotoGP in title, I thought it's gonna be some test racer or stunt racer on the bike but holy WOW it's THE DANI PEDROSA - the legend himself. Good to see him again.

You got Dani Pedrosa! Damn! My respect for this channel just went up!

Such a nice guy, Dani is definetely missed in Motogp.

[mtro_mx]

After so many insane drag races you‘ve done I think it’s time for F1 vs MotoGP :D

[AbsoluteFidelity]

To put things in perspective : 6th gear @ 40mph on a bike that is geared at 190kmh @ 1st gear beat a 918 Spyder at 2nd gear @ 40mph. This is some next level shit.

[norafirestorm]

Hands down the best Carwow video to date! Dani showing everyone how much of a top guy he is aswell, and still extremely skilled on 2 wheels!

[mmrahman]

Truly enjoyed watching this.
Man, that Moto GP bike was on another level.
The 918 owner is a legend for bringing it in and thrashing his 1.3 mil car.

[triumphdave]

Dani is an absolute gentleman, the loveliest chap Moto GP has ever had. A true ambassador for the sport.

[tigerick]

what a rider, how he kept the back wheel just off the ground on the brake test. That's some serious skill.

[SRSpoony]

THE LEGEND THAT IS DANI PEDROSA,

Always smiling always having fun, what a true champion and rider

[JRReview]

Dani is such amazing guy, I've never imagined a 3 times world champion on a MotoGP bike here with Matt, this channel is unbelievable 👏

[sorenslothe]

This was a great cast of competitors, they both did so well on camera with the right amount of enthusiasm for it. Lovely job!

[AttrctdToShinyThings]

Dani Pedrosa is such a nice bloke.
And a real champion for participating in this drag race for our entertainment.
This was so much fun to watch.
Best Carwow yet.
Thank you.

I like Tony, he’s got a good personality and knowledge of the stuff. Would love to have him back on!

[BikesofRye]

Actually laughing out loud

Never seen Matt so excited before literally running around and jumping about!! That's bikes for you.

[philipparmley]

Dani what a legend. I was laughing the whole way through everyone clearly had a great day.
