Love how the marshal at the start line for the McMurty jumps and then shrugs as if to say, "where's it gone??"

[DrCrunkMusic]

That mcmurty is wild, looks like its been sped up 😅
The N H run in the McLaren is still my favourite, you can see the bumpy tracks makes it a real handful for him. Amazing drive 👌👌

[chasezas]

It's insane how nervous the McLaren looks.

[akisalmenaho]

The moment Heidfelds McLaren hit that magical 20k RPM, I felt sky high! 🤤

[DannoAviation]

Can we all just appreciate the symphony that XJR8/9 creates… that V12 sounds absolutely biblical

[R]

I definitely don't have the nuts to be driving the McMurtry at the stonewall that fast. One of the few vehicles to convey speed via video, can only imagine what it feels like.

[sih]

Yeah but
The SOUND of that McLaren..
Oh Hells Yeah

[maxthatsit]

I love how quiet the Nio is.
Even compared to the other EVs, this thing was completely silent and yet so fast.

[a-part]

That dudes reaction to the mcmurtry launch is hilarious. And he has seen some fast cars.

[starfox_wr-e]

The NIO EP9 sounded like it was breaking the sound barrier towards the end of the run 🤣
I find the noises some of these EV's put out, are really quite surprising.
Some are way more visceral than expected, which is great for us car nerds.
But the sound of a Tesla tyres seemingly being easily able to drown out a petrol engine Suzuki Swift altogether around town, kind of rubs me the wrong way too.

[Duvstep]

came for the times; stayed for the sound.
edit: 7:52 love how the guy was caught off guard by the mcmurtray taking off so quick lol

[eus]

Nothing beats the sound of that Jag. Absolutely euphoric sound with all those crackles and bangs in addition to the engine revs. Mega!

[MarkMeadows]

The McLaren F1 car was my favorite speed run of all time. I mean, that V10 just screams! I miss that sound.
The Speirling one was the most unique. The fan that helps keep the car planted to the ground sounds like a jet going by.

[AWC]

Y'know what, that EP9 is amazing for how quiet it is! Not a sound whatsoever! I'm all for the noise and fun but that stealthiness is worthy of respect!

[indopleaser]

Wish the years these records were achieved was included in the video

[DonLee]

Many people didn't understand why the ID-R was so much faster the next time round. Apparently they made the battery smaller, since it's a short run anyways. This increased the power to weight drastically and they put together a great run to beat the old F1 car.

[kevinkimani]

The first time I saw the McMurtry run I thought the video was sped up. Amazing times we are living in.

[uberdogg]

So epic, my fav is the Jag run. Insane skills go's to Reid. Are you kidding me go's to "Quick Nick" and McMurtry Speirling+Max.

[NicotineRosberg]

Nick fighting for his life trying to tame the McLaren. Amazing

[jerep]

Every now and the I come here and I close my eyes and I listen to that Häkkinen/Coulthard McLaren and instantly get my mind filled with memories from my childhood.
