Thanks to Red Bull Racing for joining us - @redbullracing
The Red Bull Racing F1 car is BACK, and it’s facing one of its toughest opponents yet… An RC car?!
Now we know what you’re thinking - surely an RC car can’t beat an F1 car?! After all, this is no ordinary F1 car - it’s the F1 Championship-winning RB7, which is powered by a 2.4-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can deliver 750hp & weighs in at just 650kg!
Think that’s light? Well naturally, the RC car is SO much lighter! What’s more, it’s also a fair bit cheaper too, costing just £1,400 all-in-all to get it drag race-ready.
Of course, they’re not the only competitors here though. We also have a Honda NSX, which is powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo V6 along with two electric motors, which combine to put down 581hp & 645Nm. It’s a whole load heavier than these two, though, weighing in at 1,760kg.
So what do you think - does the pocket rocket have what it takes? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

Fun fact, there are actually RC cars out there that are powered by small nitromethane-fueled internal combustion engines. Nitro engines with a displacement of around .21ci sound VERY similar to F1 cars, if a bit more high-pitched.

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

Ironically, the RC car in this video is an electric RC car, and thus does not have any engine sounds. So the F1 noise, was dubbed over it, so the normie viewers have something to listen to.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

@@VestedUTuber Yes. However, the electric brushless motors and insanely powerful electronic motor control result in even more power to the wheels - especially because you can control electric motors much more accurate to limit tire slip.

[@VestedUTuber]

@@MikkoRantalainen True, but how is that relevant to just simply noting that nitro-powered RC cars exist. Nitro is to RC as live steam is to model railroading - it's a more involved subset of the hobby for people who want to get their hands dirty.

[@Rawsawn]

seen a turbine jet "RC plane" do over 500km/h xD bonkers, not only the speed but the people that can keep track of it doing that speed on a tiny sized craft.

[@feedingravens]

@@Rawsawn When you want to be REALLY fast, you have to leave away the prop, it only slows you down. In the meantime Dynamic Soaring with gliders is the fastest you can go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apapdZKNn5uXns0 I grant you, you have to believe it to see it, the dot is practically invisible. They are at 882 km/h now... That the plane is called Transonic is no nonsense, they are approaching the transonic range in the meantime. (transonic meaning that the accelerated airflow over the wing is locally exceeding Mach 1 while the plane as such is still subsonic). But that is a problem, going supersonic (locally) creates a shockwave that causes the airflow to delaminate from the wing surface, destroying lift and exploding the drag. They are thinking about using special transonic airfoils (like jets) to overcome this. Such airfoils minimize the effect of this supersonic shockwave. The drawback is they are less efficient at lower speeds...

[@feedingravens]

@Kristoffer Smith Nope, but you can estimate that it must be in excess of 300 km/h or after 1/4 mile the F1 would catch up. On a german channel they had such an unlimited and over 200 meters or so at max on a public road they reached 242 km/h (and that distance is about the max when you do not drive after it)

[@VestedUTuber]

And keep in mind, that's a relatively modest setup on that ARRMA Limitless. You can go a lot crazier with something like that.

Its also incredibly overweight. F1 cars are jot designed for drag racing, launch or straight line speed. It’s just a cool stunt. Getting an F1 to drag race is like hitting a nail with a screwdriver. Not designed for the job. Put the rimac on a track and it would embarrass itself. Electric supercars are overweight drag cars. Not very good to drive.

Speed of that RC with respect to its size is awesome. Imagine that ratio is matched in future in commercial car then think how fast it can go.

Wise choice! For only 400 USD! But you'd need to spend more for the electronics though

[@adrianbunyard6015]

Chris is a damn good rc driver. He has won plenty of buggy races when racing for companies like durango. I am a fellow racer and can only imagine how hard that car was too keep in a straight line.

[@sonicstep]

If it is properly trimmed with toe in not toe out should be alright. Further, did Chris imply the use of a giro or similar to assist with directional stability? That's illegal in BRCA RC racing and similar series racing. Control is all on the fingers.

[@chrisdoughty8912]

Thanks Adrian 👍🏻 Yeah we needed a gyro because quite frankly it is impossible to actually steer with any precision while your own body is doing 0-60mph in under 3 seconds banging through the gears. Once up to speed I could then start to steer the car to correct for wind etc as it was really windy (runway) I think we topped out at around 150mph after around 4 seconds or so and maintained that until the quarter mile 🔥

@@chrisdoughty8912 Upon reflection, 150mph is double the speed of what I would run on a purpose built track. So yes, the giro is needed.

Imagine full emergency stop braking in one car but simultaneously focusing on another undergoing different physics. I feel car sick just thinking about it! Well done everyone!! What a treat

Same physics. Going in the other car watching the RC car actually makes it more real for the RC car driver.

[@mrb2349]

@@Natures_Symmetry you’re wrong, it actually is more difficult to drive a car while being driven in a completely different one.

[@Natures_Symmetry]

@@mrb2349 Nope. You're wrong. They accelerate and break at the same time. So the RC driver is practically in a simulator.

[@mrb2349]

@@Natures_Symmetry but they are accelerating and “braking” at different rates. For real, stop humiliating yourself.

@@mrb2349 Lol. Doesn't matter what rate. It's not like rc driver feel what the the rc car is experiencing. He just press/turn buttons.

[@insanegnyc]

Not mental…… INSANE. Bravo to the guy controlling the RC car. As someone who has done this many many times in moving car you have to physically overcome the G forces of the car your in which can mess with controlling the RC car because the throttle is a trigger and if you blip the throttle too much etc it could go bad. I seen his build and if he put a OBNOXIOUS motor he would of went A LOT faster.

Carwow needs a skilled drone pilot for aerial image stat! This video would have been amazing watched from above!

[@livaivandeweyer6464]

They race on a runway so they need approval for using a drone for every race. That's probably why they don't do it.

[@eugene9852]

@@livaivandeweyer6464 They'd most likely be filming a bunch of these races with various cars in a single day, and then just dropping them on KZbin over time. I suspect they probably filmed all of the F1 races in a single day. It would be too complicated and expensive to get the Red Bull racing team out there for multiple days. If this actually is the case, then it might make it more feasible to get approval for a drone. It would look amazing if they could do it.

[@eugene9852]

@@livaivandeweyer6464 Actually, it can't be that hard. They literally had a drone competing in one of the races. Possibly they just haven't thought of using drones to film.

[@davidsimons5944]

I'd never have believed it. Normally the tiny size of the wheels alone would be enough to defeat a car that small. In its favour I suppose are being extremely low slung / low drag & extreme light weight. I thought maybe on the 2nd run its batteries would've been exhausted, but it still destroyed the others on run 3. Amazing!

Guys you have to realise and appreciate the fact that an RC car with its small wheels has to spin them WAAAAAAY faster than the regular cars to keep up with them and not only them but to clearly beat them
