Audi RSQ8 v Jeep Trackhawk: DRAG RACE

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

It’s time for a USA vs Germany head-to-head!

We’ve got the mighty Audi RSQ8 lining up alongside one of the most powerful American SUVs around, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, and they’re going to see which has what it takes to win a 1/4-mile drag race!

So how do these two compare? Starting with the Trackhawk, peer under the bonnet and you’ll find a mighty 6.2-litre supercharged V8 that can put down 710hp & 880Nm of torque! It’s pretty heavy though, weighing in at over 2,400kg!

Then we have Germany’s contender, the RSQ8. It rolls up packing a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 which can put down 600hp & 800Nm. So it’s down on power, but it’s also down on weight, tipping the scales at just over 2,300kg!

So what do you think - will the weight advantage shoot the Audi to victory? Or will it be a walkover for the Jeep? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Jeep : "What test?"

[alertdoku]

The most complicated drag race i’d ever seen 😂😂

[hamzamjidila]

i laughed so hard when the guy in audi take off after hearing mat asking us again to sell our car via carwow

[AutoTopnl]

There should be a factory minimum for brake- vs horsepower&weight. This is just awful!

[jponz]

Juan's face when hes losing is priceless everytime lol

[Luminated]

The braking distance on the Trackhawk is SHOCKING 😱

[matthijs]

Legend has it Matt is still braking in the TrackHawk

[HgHg-ypft]

The snickering face of Juan while watching the Trackhawk disapearing down the track during the break test, priceless haha.

[grM]

I thought that the jeep was great until the break test. Imagine it in an scenario. It is precariously heavy also.

One of the funniest drag races ever 🤣
Thank you Juan!!!

[MustangBence]

You guys quite litterally make the best lineups for drag races. Thank you for your content.

[venza]

Respect Juan, he's a legend in Spain. I've learned more with his videos than attending to college.

[HelloServo]

Right now, carwow has got to be my favourite channel to keep myself entertained, keep up your work guys.

[adrianramirez]

Had me dying of laughter @ 6:41
“Got ya this time… PUTA” 😂😂

[RayTheFPSGamer]

Oh my goodness, did they forget to give the Trackhawk brakes? That distance is appalling! I wonder how many meters that is when you measure it with the specialist timing gear

[dstewusa]

We’re living in times when heavy SUVs can hit the quarter mile in 12 seconds!! LOL 😂

[joeyricefried]

I’d do almost anything for a Trackjawk. I’ve always loved the look of Jeep Cherokees too. BEAUTIFUL CAR!!

[ThSlipKnoT]

Matt saying "Puta" made me laugh more than it should've.

[obez]

Matt’s mock exasperation with Juan who just goes rogue whenever he feels like is so funny!

[Locotropic]

We need more Juan in Carlow drag races, this guy is so entertaining to watch 😆 cheers
