Is Merc paying this guy? why not a M5.
Merc had been beaten already at the drag and track by the F90.

The Mercedes launches BEFORE the ‘start’ is given by the lady.

Not a very serious video.

Sure. Give him a shout and offer your help to teach someone who's been doing it for a while.

Just so you understand, the majority of us in the UK don't always drive in sports. Our roads aren't geared for that.
Doing it for a while yet the guy is dumb enough to make a RACING video in comfort mode. Keep backing up this clown of a channel. You think I care how much popularity his account has? I know accounts with 30k subs who have more interesting and real races. Quality over quantity. Like I said the order would be E63s/8/Model 3 but some people are actually interested of how big the difference would be in SPORT mode. S O R R Y. :

Although the Merc did launch early on the dig race the times stayed accurate. Merc beat them both by busses but the time was 11.3 / 11.6 / 11.8 which was expected. Nothing wrong with the dig but a car/racing channel who does a rolling race in comfort? Lol. If somebody came up to me on the highway I'm pretty sure we'd look at eachother, slow down, get into the right gears and mode, honk 3 times and go. Not this buttfuckery. L @carwow.

The takeaway from this video and the other one with the Carrera and r8 and gtr is the n63tu3 is a powerful engine - really impressive.

Oh my! I forgot about that first race they did! Insane to throw that car in that class rather than the M5C but it is his car from BMW so it's convenient

High opinion of myself? I ain't shit! Lol. All I'm asking is if you're a racing channel, doing a race in comfort mode is sad. If you have this car & you're in comfort on the freeway go get in a 840d or something :

It's not a fun or interesting comparison because we know what will happen without even watching it. Maybe an m5 would have made for a better drag race in this situation.

I don't have a car in this race, so my ego is unharmed either way

It's likely the real world scenario for most people. It's not hard to understand his logic.

That would be a different brit, the shorter and faster one.

Tesla 3 P: 1.21.5

See more on the latest Top Gear where they also did a more meaningful drag race:

I do 50 -120 mph races all the time, I’ve done 3 since getting up 45 minutes ago.

So very, very common.

This guy used to be about unconventional but relevent reviews of cars. Recently he is morphed into satirical comedy with BMW as the bud of his jokes. I just don’t bother.
