Holden LSA vs BMW M3! Ep 5 Oztorque

[@mustangautoparts]

Best one yet! 🔥 LESSS GOOO!

[@lachlanbird6095]

he did good to launch the commy that well against the lc

[@Nguja]

Nice but deffinetly shoulda let them roll race the last one. The vf spun every race

[@MrTroytroy]

When you have to handicap because the other vehicles engineering is performance flawed.

[@Nguja]

@@MrTroytroy well that's the whole idea isn't it haven't you seen hoonigans this vs that? You negotiate a good race to watch not someone getting flogged everytime

[@MrTroytroy]

@@Nguja agree it helps when the racing is closer. They should have used an M340i or something lesser powered to race the VF

[@saigoneze4465]

Should keep the same standard format guys .Couple races off the line and a roll race to finish.Rolls can be have completely different outcomes and its faster to watch!

[@MrTroytroy]

The battle of the transmissions. DCT murders Manuals. Both of these cars are relatively hard to launch consistently. All on the launch…..

[@BvDyck101]

I agree the transmissions were the deciding factor here.

[@arav4945]

I really wanted to see a roll

[@mushy1983123]

Roll would of been fair both hard to launch

[@monsterbaby6962]

Not so cocky after 3rd race!! 😂😂

[@MrTroytroy]

I think winning on a handicap and shaping the race to give the other opponent a semblance of a chance is not a win, it’s just a participation 🏅.

[@9002alex]

Just subscribed, cool idea, but I do think you should have done roll race to take some of the gearshift out being auto vs manual. Great to see some Aussie content 👍

[@flynnferguson1120]

That commy is my favorite any day

[@SamuelMARTYN]

glad to see consistency in the variables

[@454bigblock]

Guy in white commy reminded me of Sniffy on grunt files years back lol

[@davidgriggs3967]

Hsv sounded like he was using traction control of the line or the supercharger belt was slipping at high rpm. 🤔

[@ProMm2.]

I'm so confused, I've personally raced these holdens against m4's and m5's stock and wiped them clean how did he lose. all manual as well I'm so lost.

[@davidtranmedia5112]

Should have done a roll race at the end.

[@johnboy5167]

The hsv didn't sound right to me mine would have beaten the BMW no problem at all 👍

[@davidgriggs3967]

@John boy Could it breaking down on high rpm like he had traction control on or maybe the supercharger belt was slipping at high rpm .

[@johnboy5167]

@@davidgriggs3967 l would say it definitely needs a better tune it didn't sound right to me from start to finish

Haha when that water bottle roled under the table

[@D800Lover]

Was the Beamer using launch control? That's not fair.

[@Paul-qq7mh]

No roll race???

[@robdawson4339]

Coulda shoulda woulda. Love the excuses from the V8 boys. It is what it is. The M3 was faster, and as for a roll race it wouldn't have mattered. The M3 was quicker in gear as well. The fact the LSA is over twice the capacity and is also forced induction should be an embarrassment given the outcome. I hate to think what the BMW engineers could achieve with that capacity, if they chose to. As for price - it doesn't matter. If you can afford an M3 then great. If you can afford an HSV, then great. Who cares.

[@Gengargamer2_]

It's auto vs manual, of course the auto will win. And that argument of displacement shows how much you dont understand. It's the same argument that people use when Honda the Honda K series engines clap v8s, the displacement is a single factor that doesn't account for anything else, people de-stroke engines to lower displacements for higher performance in many cases. There is no embarrassment in the outcome on the hsv's end. You can see the bmw only pulling away when the hsv is out of traction and changing gears. It's an embarrassment that the BMW costs twice as much for the same performance (if not worse, depending on the hsv spec)and will last half as long.

[@D800Lover]

@@Gengargamer2_ And wasn't he using launch control in the Beamer? That is not fair.

[@Gengargamer2_]

@@D800Lover It most likely still has automatic functions built in to still help it hold traction and get a good takeoff, even if it isn't proper launch control.

[@D800Lover]

@@Gengargamer2_ - Yep. So the Beamer had an advantage, right? So the underdog did well to win one of three. Maybe 3 out 5 and it might have had a chance, even with a manual gearbox? Not bad.

[@johnboy5167]

Mine would beat it easily 😁

[@MrTroytroy]

For all the LSA owners who said their tuned LSA would beat a stock M3. Surely your Dragy/Vbox times would tell you that the more power you add to your LSA - the slower they go 0-100 on the street. If you stopped framing your dyno printouts and actually started getting real street performance data - you’d al humbly know this.

[@bradleyrankin9002]

The vf lost traction the BMW didn't

A lot of excuses in the comments for a modified GTS against a stock M3. A tune alone on the M3 would have left a bus length gap

[@cherylsagar7901]

I HAVE NOT EVEN WATCHED THIS, PAUSED) IF IT WAS THE M5 I WOULD SAY CLOSE, BUT, ITS AN M3, THE LSA SHOULD DO IT WITH 400KW 600hp? (WITH THE SUPERCHARGER LOW TO MID 12s DOWN THE QUARTER) BETTER WITH SLICKS. LSA SHOULD BE 430KW, AS MUCH AS A SUPERCAR, IF THE LSA GOT THE WALKENSHAW 557 UPGRADE, IT WOULD BE BEATING A FERRARI. IT SHOULD BE A NO BRAINER AGAINST THE M3. UNLESS THE M3 GETS 3 CAR LENGTHS OFF THE START, IT SHOULD BE, GOOD NIGHT M3. ALSO, I HOPE ITS AUTO, MANUAL DRIVER COULD KILL IT LOL. GOOD LUCK M3!

[@MrTroytroy]

Agree not a fair fight. The BMW demonstrated that being 100kw and 200nm short still required a handicap be given to the HSV. They should have pulled a coil plug to make the greater than half-sized smaller engined M3, slower to keep up with the LSA 😂.
