Shame he just didnt stay on it a bit longer when it was hauling ass! A better test would of been a 60mph roll to take traction and lag out of the equation
@@WeirdBrick Yeah ideally 3rd gear pull at higher starting speed would have been better for both cars, that way Rick would have had less wheel spin and Calvin would have been in boost.

Calvin's Car Diary Yes it is..... and your channel is on a massive up too... we are lucky to have all this content... Nice one.... Living the dream lads
Killing the intro visuals as always!🔥 Ricky - “I’ve see you’ve got it slightly angled to the rear - what does that mean?” Calvin - “That basically means that you’re going to be behind me” 🤣
@@ItzD3fW1sH why would it?! They found the problem at V Max when they overheated it. They have now fixed it with a cooler and oil temps back to normal.
Ian Simpson what about them? R is solid around a track, and breaks can easily be beefed up. But that’s not the point, I’m merely pointing out this THIS R is quicker than Ricky’s stage one M4, period.
The bmw only has the rear wheels driven so it will always be easier to get off the line faster so not a fair fight. A fwd gti like clubsport S would be far more fairer with power upped to calvins level.
Wow really thought the R would stomp the M4. Shocked how close they was. Be a good video to get them both on a dyno. The golf must be running a good bit less than 600! Sick video guys
@@mrmahmood3837 that's kind of obvious surely?! The bmw stock rolls of the production line at roughly 430ish bhp and the golf at the time at about 290 bhp! Huge differences in starting points?! Also the BMW with let's say for example modified throws out 700bhp for instance if Ricky modded it.... How do you think it would get on laying down 700bhp down on the road on a cold damp winters day or a salty road etc....? Ricky was struggling even with the tuning box off!! Imagine if it was raining! Although it would be interesting on a warm dry day with some track day semi slicks or summit on!! That would be a great video!!
bmw4 life, I’m not disputing if you put mods on the bmw, but this videos content was stock m4 v’s 600bhp golf, the excuses rick was coming up with were laughable, I’m surprised they didn’t include , grass clippings, ants, and banana skins on the road for bad launch or in gear acceleration.
Rick you should have tried 3rd gear when the R was in second as the torque is mega and you can get the power down better. I’m always up a gear in my M4 CP running a DMS 540bhp tune with MP Exhaust. Lower gears loads of traction issues!
I think some people in the comments missed the point that it was not about beating the golf but just being able to hang to a degree along side with the lesser power and extra weight meaning its not all about hp figures calvin's face at the end was hilarious that golf is going up for sale when he gets home he looked sick as a dog lol
Buzzing for you both. So glad you done this vid. Need more races like this love to see the diffrence in cars side by side. Shocked how well the m4 did.
I think if Arthur was driving he wouldve won every race with EASE. All wheel drive over M cars. Maybe they should rebrand them as D cars. As in dangerous.
Great vid guys. I have a TDI tuning box on my Golf R 7.5 and it’s wicked. Not in your league but amazing power with 4 motion leaves most things for dead in the wet!
That was heavy.. Two of the best car personalities on you tube.. Watching them grow.. Such a nice change from the 'private school boys'.. Err now let's go around corners see what happens...
@Sir Shneb1: cars always look slower on video 2: the golf r owner isnt very confident in that car 3: the car has recently been down-tuned so it's running 550 without meth.
Ricky you should make this a new feature on your channel. When you review cars on the channel you should race them like you did here and keep a table of who won or even do a knock out winner takes all challenge... winner stays on ....great vid as always mate
Used to use Ad block on TH-cam guys. Love both your honesty & transparency.. I watch all your and Calvin's ads now guys it's my support for now to help both your content and channel.. My favourite channels guys #NotificationSquad
Double the power of a standard car ,maybe it's true but I'd of expected it to pull away more convincingly taking into account it's weight ,power and traction advantage .
When you consider the greater transmission losses AWD cars have, you'll find the power to weight ratio at the wheels isn't too dissimilar. The main advantage the R has is traction like you say, Ricky managed to put the power down pretty well on most occasions. I don't disbelieve the golfs power at all when you think about all the factors
The roads around Milton Keynes are 70mph with round roundabouts. It's a great place to test accelerations and breaking. Best time to use them is Sunday morning
People slagging off the TDI tuning box in the last video lol proof is there it's no joke! My brothers got one on his and it is a smooth powerful clean map.
Sick video guys! Shows anyone can tame the R but requires skill to tame a rwd beast. Throw Ricky in the R and it’ll MOVE in a completely different way, he’ll for sure turn off traction too. Throw Calvin in the M4 and he’ll panic as soon as the M4 spins and immediately let off the way he did in the R lol I would too Fun collab guys!
Top video and super interesting! I too thought Calvin would leave you for dead but the M4 is no slouch, especially with that tdi tuning box! Great works fellas 👍🏻
3rd and 4th gear pulls when no traction is lost would be interesting. What car has the most torque Ricky or Calvin? I'm guessing both around 500 ft lbs
This has took me back a few years to when me and my best mate did this every other day.... Give him the call at 2am. "Mate, fancy a drive?" "Yes" Then I'd set out in my MR2 Turbo and him in his Impreza, heading for the nearest dual carriageways and country roads.
You can trick it on stock map. Apply brakes first with other foot COMPLETELY off the throttle and then apply the throttle second after you have applied the brakes first and you’ll have a few seconds to spool up. Try it
Both Brilliant Cars, Personally for me i'd choose the Golf R, Dsg Gearbox is superb, I'm running a 2017 Focus St been Remapped with a Milltek cat back exhaust :-)
Really good vid and you two work well together. The Golf has the legs on the M but tuning boxes have come a long way to give the gains to make it just as capable.
Yes r won but closer than I thought! Question is how much is the golf r and the mods to compere the cost of the m4 and the box? Plus insurance should be way more for the m4 then the r so hhmm.
All I hear from Ricky is just excuses excuses excuses, hands down the golf had you for breakfast launch and dinner. Big up to Calvin represent represent luton
That TDI box of tricks is pretty impressive. Would like to see how it fares against a properly remapped stage 1 M4 Ricky. The Golf is still King IMO...£30K less on list price, down 2 cylinders, a turbo and a litre in capacity. Big turbo and a remap with some meth so maybe £5K in mods and still won! A victory is still a victory
THAT SOUNDED LIKE TOP GUN ....RICKY AND CALVIN ARE THE RED ARROWS OF THE CAR WORLD NOW HAHA ....EPIC STUFF....IS IT A BIRD ...IS IT A PLANE ??? NO...ITS A GOLF AND A BEEMER .....!!!!!!!!! WHAT A DUO ...GREAT STUFF.
Man said there's nothing in it. The golf is pulling it in easy and Calvins flapping and backing off. I'm a BMW fanboy but I give it to the golf easy.

Calvin's Car Diary there Ricky! Ma’man
I couldnt have said it better myself.
Killing the intro visuals as always!🔥
Ricky - “I’ve see you’ve got it slightly angled to the rear - what does that mean?”
Calvin - “That basically means that you’re going to be behind me” 🤣
I like you man, but you weren't ever "in the pocket". That R is waaaaayyyyyy faster.
He will when the golfs engine blows up again.
@@ItzD3fW1sH why would it?! They found the problem at V Max when they overheated it. They have now fixed it with a cooler and oil temps back to normal.
Add some corners, the m4 with traction off will be in a ditch. Point to point the R is much more usable
Sorry Ricky the R was faster get another 80hp then go up against it. Then you can say your king.. but the R was king with calvin
But the golf is starting in 1st so it’s an u fair race...
Golf R is quicker on every level, Ricky in denial innit.
Track? Brakes?
Ian Simpson what about them? R is solid around a track, and breaks can easily be beefed up. But that’s not the point, I’m merely pointing out this THIS R is quicker than Ricky’s stage one M4, period.
If Ricky was driving the Golf it would have won every race.
Not for long bro
Ricky it’s amazing how much your channel has grown. Honestly your vids make my day better . Keep up the great work mate.

@@HarryG98 haha you'd be surprised. I think Calvin would of had a better chance if he left it in Auto.
No skill in straight line speed he just needed to have it on boost or get some anti lag on it 😂 joys of a big turbo get lag when not at the right revs

I have reservations that the golf has 600bhp . I'd like to see a Dyno .

Wonder what the respective torque figures are? And weights too.....
Double the power of a standard car ,maybe it's true but I'd of expected it to pull away more convincingly taking into account it's weight ,power and traction advantage .

little 4 cylinder, very impressive... albeit a big turbo but standard engine. Miss my golf r, growing up aint fun
Very interesting video guys. Looked like the golf r is very laggy to make that kind of power. But flies when on boost. M4 though lighting those tyres!
I'm an M-fanboy (my M6 to be precise) but gotta give it to the little Golf R. Rapid! 🔥Great content Ricky!
Golf R puts the power down so well. Even with Calvin in the driver seat 😂😉

I’ll get a tdi box on my m5 and let’s see how they compare!?
Two of my dream cars together, what could be better? Smashed it once again boys! 🔥👊🏼
That Golf R is quick you can see how at higher speeds it starts to take off and leave that M4 behind. Plus Calvin is quite a conservative driver.
By conservative do you mean crap lol? Arthur would smoke them both.
I’d say the golf is nearer 500hp. It has 200kg less then the M4 and there’s not that much between the two when the M4 gets traction.

Put slightly wider Tyres on and try running a sticker Tyre. Speak to evolve tuning they have a 600hp m3 and they put the power down
Calvin needs to start brake boosting in 2nd to get that spool up on take off!
yeah man, exactly what I was thinking, with the tune they should have that capability, he would have been GONE
I may be wrong but I think the brake pedal completely kills the accelerator on the R's. So it wouldn't really work 😑
