That rear engine traction👌🏼

[@googleuser6916]

All the cars struggling to go up the hill at redline. Meanwhile beetles glide up with no problem at 2000 rpm.

[@code_sculptor]

Paraphrasing IT support's words spoken about some of their customers, problem lies between the wheel and the seat.

[@EricLS]

@@code_sculptor straight up. It’s like when the snow flies and people spin wheels at full speed from stop signs. Is that how you walk on ice? Just a full out sprint from standing?

[@dimitrijekrstic7567]

@@EricLS funny analogy, +1

[@marquez1333]

Beetles are rear engine, which means the driving wheels always have weight on them to keep them grounded, AND they dont need to push opposing weight uphill.

[@pdtech4524]

I noticed the BMW's all struggled many taking shrubbery with them but the VW beetles weren't phased one bit and made it look like a stroll in the park! 😎👍😯

[@Bushwackerinpa]

Rear engine

[@Matt-dx3wo]

those bmws are quite annoying!

[@norbiesison9257]

Wonder if the ASC+T of the Bimmers (traction control) was required to be switched off? 🤔

[@bonkeydollocks1879]

@@norbiesison9257 must be yea

[@bonkeydollocks1879]

Beetles are perfect for this due to the weight of the engine and two spare wheels over the driven wheels

[@SKOMPAS]

I am so confused! The first BMW I saw supercharged and lifted 2 feet took me by surprise, then there where two more!

[@goclunker]

Only the z3 was sc

[@apancher]

I'm wondering if that's the sound of a bmw power steering pump on its last leg.

[@goclunker]

@@apancher the z3 (e36/7) was supercharged, probably a downing atlanta. The others, def not

[@goclunker]

@@apancher actually, rewatching, the burgundy e30 is sc as well. I had a supercharged 318i m42. That sound is distinct

[@SuperJerot]

Beemers be like: Speed and power! Beetles be like: Get out of the way!

[@renz1013]

I had the exact same thought. jezza up front cpatian slow at the back

[@JPAnor]

also JC: "speed and power doesn t work"

[@jackchristian9854]

It’s kinda interesting how all the rear engined cars made it quite easily, like the bugs.

[@thiefrules]

more weight in the back over the tires = more traction

[@hamdanfauzi552]

Sure does, the Torbay Trial has already been held this year, but there are plenty of other events, check out the ACTC website calendar

[@RandomDuude]

Not gonna lie, I love watching trials on youtube just to see the old Beetles schooling everyone 🤣

[@eviethekiwi7178]

I think i just found my new favourite motorsport

[@sixpest]

smoother is faster thats why that beetle embarrassed all of them, Pinging off the rev limiter and rotatin them tires that fast will get you no where.

[@mertlale6952]

that and the fact that beetles are rear engined. That gives them much better traction due to weight distribution.

[@res0zn4c]

Ok now I really want a Baja bug.

Don't miss that Devonshire mud, apart from driving in it of course. But now found out what true off roading is after moving out to Australia. But that was with a ton of spray rig on the back chasing invasive species around in the Snowie Mountains.
