He even invited us to skip the queue to keep chatting with him. We didn't want to intrude on his night but I couldn't believe his offer. Thank you Moog for making the night even more special.

Love the fact you got someone from the TCR series to test the cars, that's awesome and his commentary during the laps was a nice addition also. Keep it up.

Dudes this series has been as entertaining as it gets. I've been a fan and love your channels but this has been a blast.. totally on par with anything that I've seen done by the big ballers like Top Gear. Congrats bros

I know Marty taking the piss, a few episodes ago but I love my golfs/ VW's. been away for the last year travelling around the world. got back to the UK just before Christmas, had a scirocco R in storage and just a few days ago bought a MK 8 golf R ( having owned the MK7.5 before). My dad owned a GTI years ago and had many happy memories with him whilst driving it, now I want to make new memories with my daughter (11yo) when I get the chance to see her ( very stressful personal life reason why I don't see her every day as you can imagine). will be ordering new chopped finger decals soon for it and cannot wait to go on late night drives through the city in my new MK8. followed you guys for years and I love you both, honestly you keep me sane, if it wasn't for the love of cars I would be in a terrible place today so thank you.

I feel like you guys have been having more fun with the vids lately, and the quality and creativity is the best it's ever been... really happy to see it for y'all.

As a GTI owner i felt that ending, but thanks for proving the point with fwd cars 👍

Ending was just 10 outta 10! Busted a gut for sure!

That ending was exactly the results I was expecting and was pretty much perfection.

Awesome episode boys. Luke explained things so well 👏

Class content as always, been watching for many years from the UK, was not expecting that result in the end and what a crazy dream

That was a surprise, I expected the GTI to be a decent bit quicker on track where the awd is more of a weight penalty than grip advantage. Good news for me as a mk8 R owner.

@Ferretsnarf

Жыл бұрын

It's definitely a track that will help the GTI more than the R with a driver more inclined to FWD in a single hot lap on a new track where the R was lapped first and the GTI was modified. And still the R came out faster. Driver even said he felt like there was more in the R and didn't say the same of the GTI. This was best case scenario for the GTI. For what it's worth I did once own a Mk7 GTI and a 7.5 Golf R. The GTI definitely feel more responsive and lighter, due to the lighter drivetrain and smaller turbo, but I find the R much nicer to drive and much more powerful.

Y'all are the best 👌... Truly had me on the edge of my seat with that race... AWD prevails!!! thanks guys

What a class act Luke is. Love to see what he could do around there with my GTI. It’s done a 52 with my ham fists at the wheel.

I'm sure Luke has better stuff to do, but I would love a series of him taking all of the MCM cars round the track and reviewing them from a professional race driver perspective.

I would love to see that same driver drive a car of equal capacity, but rear wheel drive. I’m very curious what the time would be

Top notch motoring, impressive on having Luke do the business 👏 Thanks for sharing

Nicely done on the ending, and the foreshadowing was perfect! Also, didn’t realize the R was FWD biased unless there was need for power to the rear. I just had figured it was 50/50 around town, with the ability to send 90% to either end... not sure where I got that idea!

@timwilliams2343

according to the interballs, "in the past, VW used a Haldex AWD system that could send up to (but no more than) half of the engine's torque to the rear wheels, but for the mk8, VW opted for a torque-vectoring rear differential that can send 100 percent of the engine's torque to an individual wheel (via a multiplate clutch)"; maybe Luke should have had the R in drift mode?

Props getting the pro driver in for this, he's great on the commentary! The sting at the end had me rolling, g'day Uncle Barry!

Thanks for finally paying off the two previous episodes' winding up. That was.. a lot of fun. :D

@mightycarmods Brilliant. Sometimes y'all sell the schtick really well, sometimes it just gets an eye roll. I was expecting the Marty-in-a-VW bit was gonna earn an eye roll. I was wrong. Moog calling out the snarky eyes was pretty good, but the the bit was cemented as legendary by: "it was front wheel yyyyeeaeaaarrgg" And @KingTeamRacing was epic. Great commentary while flogging the VAGs, and didn't lock up bantering with you legends. Thanks guys!
