F1 Car vs World's FASTEST Hypercars: DRAG RACE

Uploaded 2 years ago by carwow

Video Summary

The review centers around drag racing three very different vehicles.
- The Rimac Nevera prototype set a CarWow quarter-mile world record and the model in review is a production car. It has four electric motors putting out 1,914 horsepower and 2,360 Newton-meters of torque. It has a 120-kilowatt-hour battery pack, which makes the car quite heavy at 2.3 tons. The car costs around 2 million pounds.
- The McMurtry Spéirling has two electric motors driving the rear wheels only, and produces 1000 horsepower. It weighs just under 1000 kg, with a 60 kWh battery. It has 2000 kilos of downforce from a fan system and costs a million pounds.
- The Red Bull Formula One car RB8 has 800 horsepower and weighs 700 kg with a driver. It’s rear-wheel drive but only produces downforce when moving. It can be difficult to launch.
- The McMurtry’s downforce doesn’t slow the car down, only its small rear wing.
- In the end, the Rimac wins the drag race.
- 8.4 seconds is the best time ever recorded in a CarWow drag race.
- There was also a braking test from 100 mph to test how well each car could stop.
