It's a shame the guy presenting it is such a clown. Nice idea. I was surprised by how close the WRC was.

Wasn't there an article in Road&Track a few years back where they did a decent real car versus RC car shootout?

That Rc is pretty rapid.

Although the car was pretty disadvantaged by the turn.

imagine that thing on the TG track, it rockets to 60 mph in 1.5 secs, and then tops out and then the WRC car slaughters it!

I think its safe to say on anything where there is more than a 200m straight the WRC car would beat it.

And if not, juts squash it :p

I found that one quite boring and predictable actually.

Your initial tohughts on who will win between a bob sled and a WRC car, same length track?

The bobsleigh can keep its speed up, the WRC can't. The bob sled can go flat out through corners, the WRC can't.

I know there wasn't too much init, but It was pretty predictable.
