Video: BMW E92 M3 GTS vs Audi RS4 B7 Drag Race by Carwow

These guys channel are fun to watch but his driving abilities are utterly terrible - he is more journalist as he is driver. Almost every car he reviews he runs nearly a second or more slower in the 1/4 compared to what they "should" or have been proven to run. Mashing the gas on a 450hp car with RWD vs AWD will always favor the AWD car with a less than adequate driver.

But why are we comparing a weight reduced E92 M3 (33xx lbs.) with 444hp to an RS4 Avant with 414hp that weighs 400 lbs. more? This isn't even apples to apples and the M3 still lost the drag race. I'm curious to see what would happen if the Avant was switched out for a Saloon.

Street start method: MDM ON, quick stab pedal to the floor without touching the detent/"kick down" and the car will take off with little to no wheel spin. Please try again.

Feel better now?

Butthurt much? Why are you taking exception to his response? A mid 13 run in that car is a joke and the record needs to be set straight. I consider that video the same as Fake News. One could actually think that he was trying to appease both Audi & BMW fans by letting that dig race outcome occur.

CarWow is purely entertainment for Forza kids.

Taking personal offense to these clickbait YouTubers frankly speaks volume about your insecurities.
