@@Mignunn That’s what i’m saying! The ZR1 is in no way comparable to an S3, it’s a track monster. For the S3 to even be this close is very impressive. Of course driver plays a huge part
the problem is cars no have such large gaps and top speeds, acc, weight and suspension that a gt350 would probably crush almost every car in its price range in a squirrelly circuit then get obliterated by a camero, low trim corvette, or even scatpack on the oval. A gt500 would also crush on the circuit but would never keep up with a high trim corvette on the on the oval. Gt350 is probably the best bang for your buck and the gt500 would really only do good at a drag strip. Im assuming the 1300hp gt500 isnt made for cornering and was only made to be faster than the dodge demon 170.
The beautiful sound of that v8 spitting my little ponies out the exhaust. Those cylinders those have no tolerance for soft people but only tears through the exhaust valves 😂😂
So to get the inside on the track do they have to qualify and beat the other car before hand? Like each takes a turn around the track and whoever has the best time gets the inside?
I can say first hand, a tuned S3 is nothing to mess with. Mine did 11sec 1/4mi and 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. They can get faster but I daily drove it. Sold it for a 911 and a new SQ5. My SQ5 is now as fast as that S3. Way more power but it’s way heavier. That’s my daily. Porsche just for fun. Upgrade! 😂 I do miss that S3 sometimes though. My first fast and nice car.
@@RoasterOven same track, same cars, vette won by five lengths on the outside. Or what… weight distribution exceeds who’s where on the track. Roaster needs lessons going way back
@@dustin6828 that's also the drivers not wanting to hit each other... they aren't race cars they are their daily drivers they pay insurance on. The Audi driver went crazy wide to avoid hitting a car worth 2-3 times more. The Spectator drags at the Freedom Factory are just a test of who is willing to push harder and not crash. It has nothing to do with car performance... That's like saying the aerodynamic properties of the car matter in an 1/8 mile drag race.. it doesn't, you don't get fast enough in an average car to where drag coefficients matter.
As with any oval racing, the inside always gets you ahead unless you spin out. No audi is a straight line monster, alot of American cars like the vette are which is also why they produce more power out the factory
They don’t give you the opportunity. To do so, no pre laps. The only thing you can do is the rear tires with a burnout. Other issue is the surface is very dirty and hard to get traction, almost like racing on gravel. The surface there is terrible. Cleetus knows it and wants to resurface the track at some point.
I watched only because I was hoping for, and expecting, a crash! It's always extremely gratifying, and oh so satisfying, when individuals crash their expensive cars because they've watched too many movies. 😁
Not gonna lie I'd hope the zr1 was going to win. 755hp stock, tons of downforce. The only thing holding it back is RWD and the drivers confidence with the car.
Then dude should have stayed home. I don't think a S3 is your standard family car!!! That's a pretty quick car to be driving your kids around in!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 a standard family car would be a camery or something like that!! Lol not an S3.
I definitely wouldn’t call a S3 a family car. For 1, it is a performance car that is faster than 90% of cars on the road and there’s no way you’re getting a family in that thing comfortably. It’s tiny.
Well that is not 100k anymore you dumb , that is 300K vs 60k nowadays , ZR1 never been down 127K , it is always above 150K even in 2019 when it came out .
The Audi got him off the line with the AWD traction, but once the Corvette got up to speed so that the aero can do it's job so the BAS can put that power down to the rear wheels...yeah it was not going to be a fair fight

This is the only way I’d watch nascar. Bring back production cars on the oval.
That's crazy.

Corvettes are so frickin fast !!
ZR1: wait, we were racing?
I'd like to see these guys have two races, each car gets a chance at the inside. Love watching these.
He could’ve did that whole lil track without braking on the zr1 😂
The inside obviously has an advantage. Why are we not talking about this?
Right
Audi- I have the high ground
ZR1- that's cute
Those Vettes are gorgeous
ZR1 beast, is serious business 👍👌
I love ❤️ Chevy, especially Corvette 🇺🇸 😎
Camera man had one job. .
The video is likely cropped for shorts, it's probably actually filmed in landscape.
"And for my next trick, I will kick a puppy"!!!
The C8 ZR1 is going to be nuts
If the Audi was on the inside lane than this would be a different story
S3: nah id win
ZR1: *nascar on steroids*
Who was the ZR1 racing? Half of the short all i saw was a ZR1😂
That handling is second to none 🍺😎
The beautiful sound of that v8 spitting my little ponies out the exhaust. Those cylinders those have no tolerance for soft people but only tears through the exhaust valves 😂😂
I get the corvette is faster but whoever is on the inside always wins. And it’s always the faster car inside too.
Zr1 wasn't even pushing it
Facts, I would be curious to see another run with Audi on the inside lane!
Incorrect af
Their was a zo6 and some truck that beat the model s and they (fast cars) were in the outside
I came to point this out as well... There's an inherent unfairness in this race for the person on the outside
Always seems like the guy on the inside wins these should have a few more laps
So to get the inside on the track do they have to qualify and beat the other car before hand? Like each takes a turn around the track and whoever has the best time gets the inside?
Nice start...spectacular finish..
Props to the guy for actually using the ZR1 for what it was meant
Props to the S3 for keeping it fair and not pass blocking
Does this have the same engine as the Camero ZL1???
No, C7 ZR1 have 6.2 liter supercharged V8 LT5, ZL1 and ZL1 1LE have 6.2 liter supercharged V8 LT4
Who’s has more advantage in turning the upper lane or the lower lane? And I’m talking abt in the track
I DEMAND 5 laps races. C'mon
Can you do a video starting the car from cold with valves closed? You started it with the valves open here I think lol
How can that s3 keep up that good at the start ? The ZR 1 has about twice the hp or am I wrong ?
All wheel drive the vette was spinning a bit too
Also safe to assume Audi isn’t stock
That ZR1 went soft
That vette looks nasty
Am I bugging? Why does the track look so small?
I could be wrong but I believe the Audi is AWD so it grips up and goes but the car this made to be on a track is expected to quickly take over.
Love those videos 😅
Try putting the cars the other way round and it will be a different outcome
Launch shows awd vs rwd. The rest shows power to weight difference lol
I can say first hand, a tuned S3 is nothing to mess with. Mine did 11sec 1/4mi and 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. They can get faster but I daily drove it. Sold it for a 911 and a new SQ5.

Lmao.
He do and I like my odds against that ZR1 vs TT RS stage 2 it’ll be close for sure!
Doesn’t the person who starts on the inside of the track have a major advantage?
Sports car vs family sedan?
Just hear that v8 roar bro
Hanging with him 😅
Corvette 👑👑👑
Valiant effort, but definitely out classed!! It's not his fault, just who he got lined up with. C7 ZR1s are INSANE!!!
Loved my S3 (sedan) man. Perfect car. And loaded for a fraction of the cost. Not to be beaten at the price. Maybe a 5.0 fox
A C8 Stingray eats them on the track. It eats the Acura NSX and Audi R8 on the track as well
In five laps that ZR1 would have beat that Audi by 50 LOL
That’s how weight works folks
Or having the inside lane 😂 there's a reason track and field starting point are staggered if it's anything longer than a 100m dash

That’s a beautiful Corvette
Corvette is king. Especially dollar for dollar.
Im surprised the audi didnt understeer and go into the wall
Design of corvette is sike!!!❤❤
Awd helps them take off but makes them understeer. Also power difference.
Is it any surprise that the car on the inside usually wins? I've never seen a circular drag race before.
Zr1 looks like he wasnt even trying😅
nothing but Chevy power hell yeah
Audi had him on the launch bcuz of all wheel drive but the power of the zr1 was to much for it.
As expected. ZR1 rules .
Uuhh the c7 ❤😢
Had a tuned golf R with same drivetrain as an S3. With launch control they would take most RWD cars on the street for the first bit anyways ;-)
Chevy power Baby!!!
That’s one of the AWD Audis, right?
Yes awd haldex system, with a 4 cyl turbo
Like there was any doubt.
If u count for the curve it seems too close to call
The idea is to beat the other guy to the curve so you can get in front
Not gonna lie I'd hope the zr1 was going to win. 755hp stock, tons of downforce. The only thing holding it back is RWD and the drivers confidence with the car.
Yall should put the s3 on the inside
Never seen a r35 in this, they know it will absolutely destroy everyone😂

A standard European family car vs a ZR1 isn't exactly a fair race.

Awesome
That's why America won the war..
We do everything fast and with a bigger power and set of balls❤
Couldnt get the power to the pavement in the first couple seconds but after that it was a trip to gapple bees
The Audi got him off the line with the AWD traction, but once the Corvette got up to speed so that the aero can do it's job so the BAS can put that power down to the rear wheels...yeah it was not going to be a fair fight
Smart driver
🏁 CHEVY 💪 POWER #ZR1 🏁
All wheel drive Audi had him at the start.... But the Corvette was a superior machine
Put them in a straight line instead of one running the extra distance on the outside and the results would be different.
