Now, THIS is Audi. Not all the Q4, Q6, A6 e-tron stuff.... Two amazing cars. The R8 should never have been discontinued as the icon that brought the brand to new heights.
As much as I would've loved to see the R8 continued, I think they would've ended up ruining it. Good to end something on an high, an epic goodbye to the iconic V10.
Audi is still one of the best Brands in my Experience owning Audis since 2006! I own a 2009 Audi R8 V8 which now has over 200k km on it and it never had any Problems whatsoever, just the typical Oil, Tire Change etc. Also owning a 2010 Audi RS5 (which Americans sadly didn't get) that thing also holds together like it's unbreakable Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

Whenver you guys are doing a Turbo vs NA drag race, try to also do a top gear rolling race, without shifting down to comprehend how much of a difference Turbo vs Natural Aspiration makes; and slow drag races anyways are always fun to watch as well.
@@bussterdouglasMaybe in the RS6 it is. But not in general. The N/A V8 I have puts out about 200 fewer HP than the Audi, yet it's full of soul, sound and character 👍
Thanks for adding engine sound from the go-pro. You can hear the difference between a supercar and a sports wagon. I love all Audis but R8 have a proper supercar whine while RS6 sounds like a woodchipper in front of it.
For 10 million subscribers please can Mat and Yanni and a few others do the 100m sprint, 200m sprint and quarter mile. If not, a Fighter Jet vs. Hypercar drag race (full mile too) 🙏
Considering it’s a 2-seater sports car vs. a 5-seater estate that weighs 500kg more with about the same power, it was closer than I thought it would be - didn’t expect the RS6 to win even one, despite the 4WD.
The issue is car gearing is always different so it would be more about gearing than engine flexibility. Eg a corvette c7 does 155mph in 4th whilst some cars do 110mph. If gearing is identical it’s a good test though :)
The R8 still looks so beautiful even after a decade. In my opinion nearly all the previous generation of supercars and hypercars looks so much better even after a decade! The Aventador lineup looks more sexy and aggressive than the Revuelto, the LaFerrari looked so much better than the new F80, even the Chiron looked so much better than Tourbillon and so on. Even the older BMWs looked like a dream back then, now just grills. All these emission regulations and the EV race has killed the modern cars
No it is not, they are at the Opel test center in Dudenhofen. The road that can sometimes be seen on the side is the country road from Rodgau-Dudenhofen to Babenhausen. According to Google Maps, that part of the test center is still under construction, but it is already finished on StreetView.
Fantastic race that R8 is one of the greatest easily driveable supercars ever made . As a daily driver I'd still take the RS6 over the R8 , the RS6 is super practical you can take the family anywhere with it , go shopping , then go crazy on the highway with it especially this GT version it goes like a missile it's totally bonkers !
(Excuse my language, i‘m not a native speaker) Even this is a great channel, i‘ve got a suggestion to make. Wouldn‘t it be interesting to see, how the cars perform in a „real-world“-drag race? I mean, how often do you use launch-control or break-boosting to accelerate? So my suggestion is (in addition to the „normal“ drag races): Set the cars to the startline, RIGHT foot on the break and than just floor the throttle with the right foot. To prevent anticipation, i would choose an acoustically start signal (starter pistol/ horn/ etc.), which is placed BEHIND the cars. So all drivers have the react to it and will generate almost similar response times (0,15-0,25s). Maybe one run in D und one in S?! Or one run with TC on and one with TC off?! I would love to see, how big the differences between the different gear-boxes will be. I mean, my car is over one second slower from 0-62mph, if i don‘t use LC. So, dear @carwow team, maybe you think about this idea. Otherwise: Great work and keep it up!

@@blackmercury956 don’t worry you’ll still see them on the road, its just a tactic to sell at overprice. Plus 2020 RS6 is also literally the same but the price difference is night and day. 176K is way too much for a RS6 imo. You can get way better cars which are collectors car at this price.
2075kg for a performance car with that price tag is just insane. Is there no aluminium in Germany or is Audi's answer to the weight just add more power? Yeah its pretty fast in a straight line, but some of us like to go around corners too and Im betting it under-steers like a pig
Those c8's have been weighed at 2200kg. Not sure what theses new gt's tip the scales at but I'm pretty sure they're not 2075. And with regards to understeer if they run the new KW's like the performance models do I can guarantee you you'll be amazed how good they are round the twisties
@@charlottw3466 different dampers do not magically stop a car from understeering, unless the original's settings were horrible. The main suspension settings which affect understeer/oversteer are camber and toe, and they're independent from the dampers themselves. So if there's less understeer it's more likely that Audi messed with other things too.

The original was a woman.but they just voiceover her voice for anyone who does it.
Watching Mat drag racing two cars on a real expres road is something else 😍😍😍. Love it. Something fresh to see 😊
I really like that track, and the view😊
I was never a fan of R8's but bloody hell that R8 GT looks incredible
This is would be the last Audi R8 we will ever see😢👋
Same with the rs6. Bext "RS6" will be fully electric. The combustion version will become the rs7 in the future
Nothing like Audi and golfs videos!!! Wonderfull!
You should also do 50mph in 4th gear in the races, see which car is more flexible
The issue is car gearing is always different so it would be more about gearing than engine flexibility.
Eg a corvette c7 does 155mph in 4th whilst some cars do 110mph.
If gearing is identical it’s a good test though :)
Finally! Two Audi RS GTs, I've been waiting this race for so long.
Weight and aerodynamics on show here
This is what I've been waiting for
hell yeah audi is back
The rotors glowing @11:01. Dope af.
Its the R8 reflection
The races are nice! But can you guys add in de 0 to 100kmh and 100-200?
These are 2 monster German cars having a fun time on a straight line - The screaming V10, and the rumbling V8 - Music to my ears!
Did you know you can see the R8 GT at 4:40 thru Rory's shades. 😊
I saw that in far left as well.
The V10 sounds amazing!
I refreshed my TH-cam a thousand times yesterday
I was legit questioning if yesterday was really a Saturday. I was sure I was loosing my mind...
So I wasn't the only crazy one, cuz carwow drag races is how I start my Saturdays, especially if I'm at work
Same here 😂
Even me I waited for Carwow to upload yesterday in the morning... Seems unusual to see a drag race on Sunday
OH SHIT THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR
10:54 he stopped the R8 with his neck
When are we going to see a run on the new rsq8 performance vs urus vs turbo gt vs x5/6m already

I don't know, but most likely this is just a test track that is coincidentally built right next to a motorway.
In Germany. They're rebuilding the autobahn on quite a few Places. There are even old complety abondened pieces of autobahn.
