2022 GT-R Challenge Part 2 - More 1000+hp 8 and 9 second Monsters hit the Runway

[@shadowred1980]

I hope that big crash leads to a rethink of rules around roll cages. So many of the really fast stuff didn't have them. Great coverage as always, thank you for posting it.

[@shifty1927]

So awesome to see all the technology advancements in drag racing over the past 15 years. You aussies are killing the inline 6 game. I had a 1000whp e36 328 in 2006ish that I drag raced. Ran a best of 9.92 @ 156 and that was on a super prepped track (MIR). Tuning has come so far. We ran electromotive tec3 stand alone and had to fly in a tuner from Canada. (He had tuned Andy frosts world fastest street car at the time). Things like ethanol, injectors bigger than 1600cc, boost by gear and so much more have progressed the scene so much. Makes this old ex racer proud to see people still pushing the limits.

That was a wise decision to take the Pro Street cars off Hawko. Although King32 got the 7, it wasn't in the true street trim that makes Coota, Coota. 😎👍

[@Anonbruzz]

King32 got 7.3 in full street trim in 2018. Shame little Hawks still butt hurt to remove the garage names and their time.

[@MafiaboysWorld]

@@Anonbruzz That was at WSID, not Coota, and it's best while a street car was 7.00. When he ran the 7.97 at Coota, the car had already run 6.60 at WSID and been converted to Pro Street trim, and since Coota is about True Street and not Pro Street, it becomes invalid.

@@MafiaboysWorld I don't have any dramas with that happening because of rule changes it is what it is but to remove the name of a workshop of who built the car a bit childish but not surprised

[@MafiaboysWorld]

@@kraizy1 The car was removed so the workshop is too. 🤷

[@kraizy1]

@@MafiaboysWorld theres alot of cars on the list with no workshop name against them that most people know where they were built

[@KalvinMalli]

The quality of all the builds is epic. Need to figure out a way to attend next year and see/hear this for myself. So good! Amazing to see mick walking away from that off.

[@clevo_gtr5541]

Come down under you won't regret it!

[@Shoota211177]

You can crash at my joint Kalvin! 😂 Might lean on your skills for a bit while you’re here. Rust is DEFINITELY to a minimum in mine to be fair!

[@hayden401]

9.6 with 2 gears 🤣🤣 what a legend. And how about the no name workshop. That is what cars used to be! Built in sheds! love it.

[@josheee6123]

The wrap on Ben's GTR looks incredible

[@FullsendGTR]

[@MotiveVideo]

We had our own event to run and film that day that was booked in 11 months earlier.

[@shifty1927]

Got here late but stayed to see 8s

[@akent46]

Are there fuel limits in octane for this event? What's everyone running?

[@MotiveVideo]

E85 or E98. Some cars run petrolem based race fuel.

[@hasole9669]

Put a ring on it

[@-Kufr-]

impressive pictures at the presentation of the cars 👏🏼

[@silvia12319]

[@hyphen7841]

The gods has spoken😎

[@jonty3000]

You can buy WhistlinDiesels garage door spec R32. VGC, no issues.

[@Azraazad]

When are you guys post Drag battle videos?

[@MotiveVideo]

We’ve already posted 2 put of 3 mate

[@Azraazad]

@@MotiveVideo how did l missed that.🤷‍♂️

[@infernus24]

Got to be a sick video

[@obsidian....]

Feel bad for that first guy, the guy needs a tuner and setup guy 🙏

[@obsidian....]

7:15 "98mm Precision Pro Mod 88mm turbo". In the spec sheet "Pro Mod 94mm" erm 🤣. So is it 98, 88 or 94? Lol

[@MotiveVideo]

Ask Ben. He answered different every time sp we said all three. Also an inside joke

[@Mickey-mu1oq]

Where did maatouks go on the leaderboard?

[@tomtao4266]

Were was crd and matooks

[@MotiveVideo]

CRD were overseas. Maatouks customers paid to enter but not sure why they didn’t turn up. Event got postponed due to rain so gained some and lost come competitors

[@tomtao4266]

@@MotiveVideo was awsome either way 👍🔥

[@bigdkay3052]

7 mins in he says its a 98mm turbo then says its an 88mm then the written specs is 94mm lol

[@warlike2974]

You will love what whistlen diesel has done to his gtr's

[@streetcarstv5088]

He’s slow af tho compared to these gtr’s

[@manjodha]

Legend

[@zion_lion340]

I really don't get why most of those cars are running a hard side wall drag radial instead of a soft side wall Hoosier bias ply slick tire on that kind of surface.

[@MotiveVideo]

Simple. Rules. Street cars run on traded radial tyres.

[@UrbanMenace0187]

Wowzers

[@joeyjojojr.shabadoo915]

Andrew's wife is a great host and is much cuter than Andrew..... Although, against YOUNGER Andrew, it's a tougher competition ;)

[@Takeitlightly6]

To qualify for this event, you got to run platinum racing products….

[@MotiveVideo]

No, but if they aponsor they event why wouldn’t we mention it if car has it? Super simple business logic.

[@spooky1234561]

Automatic is just lazy lol

[@lockjawjak]

First!

[@juancl3651]

K series MR2 running the same times as these GTRs. Honestly not impressed

[@bigdkay3052]

its all about weight transfer. that mr2 makes a fraction of the power as these cars, due to the engine being rear mounted there is no need for weight transfer. on one of its runs it even brought a wheel up thats how hard it 60's. the same setup in a front mount engine setup would barely run a 9.9.

[@TRUNYA1]

You know when you see a VL and your first thought is too say OOOOOMMMMMGGGGGGG BEEEEteeeee11111 bro! In some stupid broken weird ass lebo English that no one that speaks proper English can barely understand and everyone else just knows that the vl has become embarrassing to drive? Well the GTR is now just like that!OoooooOoommmyyYyyGgggggod geeeeddddRrrrrr bro.

[@richieduck67]

Proof you don't have to always spend big $$$

[@trym33_gtr]

They're all big dollar builds lol

[@flamintasty]

LOL $400,000 build isn’t spending big?
