When someone jumps he must be considered disqualified/loser. Its all over the world like this with all competitions, from 100m running to the drag races etc. Played dirty, no respect....

[@JWEAVWUZHERE]

@@Jan_Boris It’s not a huge deal to me. This Vs That isn’t exactly a formal competition and is more just fun with random vehicles and donuts. Almost all of the drivers aren’t professionals and they aren’t racing for stacks of cash or anything. I do think if they gave Ron the hit on the second race it would’ve been more interesting. Nobody likes to see a cheater win and hopefully Hoonigan will do better in the future.

If they had launched together this would always be close

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

First would have gone to the C8, but the second would probably still have gone to the Bug. The difference at the finish line was to bit to just the be jump. Third would have been close again, but most probably would still have gone to the C8. The gear changes are just so critical with that Bug. Well that and keeping all four on the ground as the CG is so far back. But the slightest hesitation when shifting gears costs time. All in all a fun glimpse into how it's not just the effect that counts.

[@SecwetGwiwer]

If they’d have launched together the C8 would have won by a mile every time.

[@trollonme]

False. It was close when the buggy took the hit twice. Had it been fair the C8 would've won.

[@calvinandrews1744]

I know how y'all run this but, C8 wins. The Bug driver sent when hands pointed up both times. "Chase is a race" sure. But not giving the C8 the hit second round kills this one for me.
