[@acerimmer8338]

These drag races are SO MUCH MORE FUN when the cars are all manual transmission. The bouncing of positioning, the drivers actually having to drive. I couldn't care less how much faster modern cars are, this is how it's meant to be.

[@MrTroytroy]

I understand what you’re saying - however buying a performance car that you know to be comparatively slow, just shows how much emotion and how little rational thought goes into buying performance cars.

@@MrTroytroy he probably drives a manual and gets gapped on the street on the regular that’s why he hates autos 😭

[@TheGamingDefinition]

I played so much GT2, this has made me very happy! After reviewing the specs, my money was on the NSX or RX-7 winning due to their power to weight ratios, but the Evo 6 came out of nowhere with insane runs every time. Such a great watch!

[@hugokussj3531]

NSX and RX-7 arent built for drag race, they are performance cars in turn. In a race with a lot of corner, the supra would be last, followed by the chaser. RX7 would be first with the nsx, followed by the r34 if there is some straight lines.

The awd makes a huge difference

Uhm i hate to say it, but you dont have to press anything other than the gas pedal, dct gearboxes cannot be beat by any human. And if we are talking about a modern manual ( if there is such a thing) it works the same. Clucth in, shift down, rev match, clutch out and push it. I dont even wanna mention an electric car, as those dont even have a lag in a rolling race due to not having a gearbox.

This takes me back to better days. I played my Gran Turismo for hours and forgot about the rest of the world. So this was pretty kick ass.

[@jadraidi]

That race was magical! Love that everyone has manual, and the engines are phenomenal. Best drag race on carwow everrr🔥

[@Ven100]

Amazing race. In my top 5 of Carwow. Also, 10:59 is a great still shot of the cars in a cascading/slanted arrangement.

[@thehouse6443]

Reminds me of the first fast and furious race

[@t3h51d3w1nd3r]

Awesome, just awesome. You just need to add the Mitsubishi 3000GT/GTO, Nissan 300ZX, Subaru Impreza and Celica GT4. Love the NSX

[@Empacack]

That Evo is just a rocketship!

[@dLEARiousZ]

Now thats an epic line up and race! That Evo was doing work!

[@Tech-Kino2685]

This is the best drag race video you've done yet ,I can watch this over and over again

[@okithdesilva129]

Thank you so much everyone who gave there cars to Mat for this insane drag race!

[@poplaurentiu4148]

Yeah Glorious drag.. hard to hate any of these cars by itself these are pretty much every boy-racer dream !

[@Akash-sr7ny]

I'm an Evo owner so happy to see this ❤️😍

[@Hulikadito]

This has got to be my most favorite drag race yet. Keep it up lads!

[@zooboyjoe]

That's an amazing lineup, congratulations to whoever put the effort in to get all of those Japanese icons into the same place and ready to race. Would you mind just running it again though with an added 300zx TT (swb), 3000GT/GTO and a 22b Impreza. That would be a dream lineup.

[@stktriz]

They should have put a modern hot hatch in with them like a GR yaris or Leon so we could see how they held up

[@LilnormieX]

Add an intégra and civic and I’m in

[@martimcrespo6850]

Don't forget the s2000

[@LilnormieX]

@@martimcrespo6850 and a 240z and a crx

[@skylerneal15]

Good luck w the 22b 🤷‍♂️

[@wrbhx]

There should have been an STi here!! Otherwise, nostalgia at its finest! Well done, guys! 👏🏼

[@S5050-f8o]

Yes could've replaced the Toyota Chaser

[@venomancer711]

Surprising decision considering there are loads of Imprezza STIs in the UK. Richard burns and colin mcrae would be very upset

[@Metalmanicac94]

should've been there to be beaten by the evo

[@Insetta]

@@venomancer711 loads of sti's where 99% are modded

[@venomancer711]

@Xcon shhh just say it has an intake and tune like the audi s3 in earlier videos. No one needs to know how heavily modded it is unless the sti starts gapping lambos

[@william254]

Gamers already knew the Evo would win

[@gallardo20000]

really impressed with the NSX... that thing is beautiful even 25+ years later

[@ToyotaAristo]

What is amazing is that the NSX in this video was an early 1991 5 speed one really used and still keep up. The NSX-R and the Type S were on the low 12s when new. Also the fastest on Nurburgring, amazing car no doubt.

[@gallardo20000]

@@ToyotaAristo you can tell how light and nimble the car is from the launch... keeping ahead on the first 2 launches. Super agile car.

[@jasonnelson623]

Loved seeing cars I grew up wanting as a teen go head to head! I’d love to have a 90s NSX! Always my fav from that era!

[@ToyotaAristo]

What is amazing is that the NSX in this video was an early 1991 5 speed one really used and still keep up with the other later models. The NSX-R and the Type S were on the low 12s when new. Also the fastest on Nurburgring, amazing car no doubt.

[@jasonnelson623]

@@ToyotaAristo Absolutely! The NSX and RX7 are the two best looking in my opinion as well. I almost bought a red 92 NSX in 2003 for 20k. Still upset with myself for not getting it.

[@Mansiang978]

This episode is awesome because they are all in manual! Watched them changing the gears were fun because all cars were "choke" for awhile before they picked up again! That race was so close. Good scream!!

[@tomrichards6207]

I wouldn't mind seeing a battle of Cobras. Original vs. Backdraft, Superformance, Factory Five, Kirkham, etc...

[@rhudson8846]

Thanks for organising this, much more enjoyable than the usual Tesla, 911 or SUV races

Whats your problem with the 911 Turbo S humiliating every car that it competes with? Are you a Pool Water fan by any chance?

[@jurel6982]

I always find it hilarious when I watch these cars launch and they’re relatively slow to the other cars Mat’s dragged race. No matter how slow these cars are, I’ll always love them.

[@A_boy_has_no__name]

Best lineup ever, absolutely legendary GT2 cars! Thank you 🙏. Off to boot up my old PS2 and see if the CD still plays 😂

[@tunes4life]

I'd have ALL of them, as a major JDM fan! Most wicked drag race i've seen so far!!! Thanks muchly for showing this!!!

im so happy every owner of those cars are a young person i have mad respect for them for keeping the jdm legacy alive and shining

[@Gws525]

The countdown noise at the start of the race, wow. Nostalgia slapping me in the face there

[@MrThegerald92]

The sound effects switching between car spec descriptions from the GT car selection screen 👌🏾 Great vid!

[@DrivenDistrict]

Mat asking everyone how it went...everyone explaining...then the Evo answers..."full send" 😂 😂 Being the Evo was my dream car when I was younger, and having owned 2 in the past, I'm glad to see the Evo take the win 🙌

[@Rolling2Quarters]

As a long time Evo owner, this puts a smile on my face.

[@MrCaterhamr500]

They are overrated. Ex 6 owner. Rusty POS most of em.

[@jasongranat8416]

Loved mine and I still miss it! Best all around fun car I ever owned.

[@dwaynejohnson8606]

liar 🤡

[@miketilston7081]

It's not exactly standard though is it 😂

[@Andre3k1823]

The Chaser is one of my favorite cars of all time. If I won enough money, I'd buy 4 or 5 of them. It's very aesthetically pleasing. The shape of the car, the lights, bumpers, everything just goes really good together. It's hard to pick out what I don't like, I can usually pick one or two things at least... not with the Chaser.

[@lukemarais41]

Even the cars flying down the drag strip sounded like Gran Turismo of old! Thanks for the nostalgia😁

[@mrevilmunkey_87]

Love this! I love the GT game series and this just had that nostalgic essence to it with the GT sounds and graphics for the specs!
