DRAG RACE! PORSCHE TAYCAN TURBO GT VS PORSCHE 992 TURBO S!

[@caribbeanseas]

Archie seems to be the KZbinr car guy that knows the least about cars

[@iseptimus]

F**king clueless.

[@scottsmith1653]

Attack button won’t work when using launch control, car will already have more power in launch mode than you would get using attack.

[@JCRDevelopments]

@@scottsmith1653 have you tested on yours? We ran some Dragy times after this and it’s faster 10-200kph using attack mode on a roll than it was using just launch control. I’m thinking maybe due to having so few miles?

[@CSL1967]

@@JCRDevelopments You need to do some research about the claimed power figures of the GT car. In every day driving mode the car has 778hp, when you push the attack mode button this increases power by 163hp to 941hp. That’s it, that’s all you’re getting. If using launch control, you supersede all that with 1019hp but for 2secs that will nudge 1092hp (Search the 2024 Pistonheads review of the car for reference) What this means is that you will always get better acceleration from a launch (no need to press that button off a launch) - I have the Turbo S, not the GT model, works in the same manner. Your own tests may be down to battery charge, I have found maximum acceleration in these comes from 90-100% charge level, as soon as it starts dropping below about 75% performance on the dragy box starts dipping slightly for me. Also, can’t really test the metrics at the moment due to the weather, grip being the most critical factor. You’ll be able to test this all out better in around June when traction is a lot stickier. I suspect launch control / traction issues will be stopping the car from utilising its full power at the minute. You should be able to tell by doing a 1/4m time or a 0-60 time. The GT car in the summer will be hitting sub 2sec 60 and low 9 sec 1/4. Suspect at the moment you’ll be looking at 2 sec+ and higher 9’s. All to do with traction and power removal by the LC system. It was a point to note in the video when you were messing about with that button and the reason it was only working whilst rolling (you were actually getting less power vs that from launch) Enjoy

[@watermelon1221]

⁠@@JCRDevelopmentsI have never heard of a car getting better roll vs launch times. Are you somewhere that has terrible traction?

[@JCRDevelopments]

@@watermelon1221 no

[@thegreatpaulsmith]

You have to upgrade it to 1092hp full time, without launch control or Attack mode.

[@Davejohnpeel]

Lets see it against an ES motore turbo s for scientific purposes 😉

[@AshlynnCairns]

Can’t believe how good this is. You’ve really mastered your craft.

Taycan is as fast as it’s depreciation

[@nchmusic99]

Archie : there is no other car that is faster than that *Lucid Air and Rimac Nevera has entered the chat*

[@lovelehstuff]

Even the model s plaid is faster

[@lovelehstuff]

@@florian_d as per carwow

[@florian_d]

@ I gotta say it is impressive how well the Tesla handles the wet road, but in all other drag races with dry road I saw the Turbo GT won. And even in the Carwow video it’s just a question about who gets the traction at the start.

[@CSL1967]

@@lovelehstuff That’s not true. Car and driver reviewed this car with a 9.3sec 1/4 a few months ago. Go google.

[@VK6AB-]

The other thing thats super fast on the Taycan is the depreciation.

[@mrg1371]

#Porsche will need to ensure the 992.2 turbo-s is quicker or it’ll certainly lose its “flagship” position

[@MP_Monarch]

it will. can you gurantee that

[@kriszt7370]

Give that 992 turbo S an ES900 kit a run it back! JCR HIT UP ESMOTOR!

Welcome back, now this is the content we want 🏁👏

[@Adam-M1]

Crazy to think the Plaid is faster, older and whole lot cheaper than the Turbo GT as per Carwow

[@Robertkajman]

Plaid is much slower it depends on conditions, driver ability to unleash a full potential of a car. On ABT channel Taycan GT destroys Tesla while using attack mode.

[@JCRDevelopments]

@@RobertkajmanI think CarWow know what they’re doing. Tesla beats Porsche gets views

[@Robertkajman]

@@JCRDevelopments no because their channel is made for fun not for serious races

[@Race_1000]

True… its cheapter. Its a piece of cheap trash. Its a fast battery. Porsche is a real sportscar with best stearing, suspension, quality interior, best brakes and much faster corner speed. And it looks also way better. I own a tesla AND a taycan. Dont even compare a tesla to a porsche.

[@prettycoolcat]

Faster?? Didn’t the Turbo GT just OBLITERATE the plaid “track packs” record by something like 20-30 seconds on the ring? Lmao

[@20ten-p5s]

Would love to see Martin’s 2RS against the turbo GT Archie.

[@davedavies-it5wd]

There is, the Tesla plaid on car wow 😂

[@monkee.racing]

You need to get Jamie from Officially Gassed on the job with his tuned turbo s

[@DanielSadjadian]

Do you think the 992.2 Turbo S will be as fast as the Taycan Turbo GT? Perhaps with a hybrid system, it will be crazy fast. Presumably Porsche won't allow the new 992.2 Turbo S to be slower than a Taycan??

[@mrg1371]

Fingers crossed

[@hovanesmarkaryan896]

No way any 911 can keep up with this beast. I don’t even think the F80 or W1 will be able to 😂

[@DanielSadjadian]

@@hovanesmarkaryan896 the thing is though, the current 992.1 Turbo S can do the 1/4 mile in 10.0 or 10.1, so it’s already not that far off the Taycan. With more power maybe it could beat the Taycan?

[@lukabosnjak3829]

@@DanielSadjadian Taycan runs 9.4-9.3s, that's a huge difference, 992 is like a small toy in a drag race with it

[@G82Watts]

​@@lukabosnjak3829taycan runs 9.0-9.1 .. bud. Many videos now showing it on drag strips and good road surfaces. It's as fast as a lucid sapphire air and destroys everything on track

[@HellcatDreaminJosh]

Archie Hamilton Racing Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you got that Porsche 992 911 Turbo S against that Absolutely Incredible Porsche Taycan Turbo GT and I think Rimac Nevera could beat it easily

[@markchasedds]

I own a 2022 992 Turbo S and have a lot of experience with it. The proper way to launch it is to get weight in it. I use180 lbs of concrete in the frunk, full tank of gas, a passenger, sport + mode, over boost button. I ran it on a drag strip and feathered it at the end to keep it over 10.0. On my last run when I was ready to go home I ran a 9.9 and promptly got kicked out. Wat too much fun!

[@CSL1967]

That defies the laws of physics, you’re adding unnecessary weight and should be running that car as low weight as you can for the best possible times. If traction is tricky, you warm the tyres and reduce tyre pressures and find some sticky warm tarmac to launch on. What you’re saying makes zero sense and defies the laws of physics.

[@tonyeanyanwu]

nothing you do will get a 992 turbo s to catch that turbo gt

[@Heartfromsomewhere]

@@CSL1967if that defies law of physics then plane never exist. Weight does increases traction by a little bit

[@thegreatpaulsmith]

Attack mode is when you're not in launch control and only gives you 1019hp for 10sec. Launch control gives you 1092hp for 2.2sec

[@G82Watts]

Taycan turbo gt is fastest performance EV sedan ever built. Maybe all time.

[@paulhammal7231]

Does look cool and goes well off the line. But I’ll take the 992 thanks. You’ll have to pitch it against a tuned 992 turbo for anything approaching close…

These guys seem to be clueless about electric cars and especially the Taycan GT! There are very few cars that can beat this stock! Lucid Sapphire and the Rimac! I’m not sure about the new Bugatti. Plaid is very close and it goes back and forth depending on conditions.
