**TROFEO R** THAT is a track tire. Are you kidding? The Pirelli Corsas are super basic tires, long lasting ones. Put the McLaren on Pirelli Trofeo R's and you laugh like there is no tomorrow. It will beat the Audi by 5 seconds. Lmao. Also: Fastest Audi vs Slowest McLaren on the market. McLaren wins hands down haha
Kondje Des Tell your dad to get you a 570 s at your birthday to go at your local tracks and run it...the Audi is made for comforf and wet climate conditins something that a light weight rear wheel drive cant do...
Not bad for car manufacturer that makes a handful of cars. The Audi needs all wheel drive because it doesn't have the chassis develpment born through F1
I don't think these guys know that these two aren't direct competitors if they're using the V10 plus R8. The better comparison is using the lower hp V10 against a 562 horsepower McLaren
The Tires on the Mclaren just made the race more fair. Bare in mind that the R8 has 4WD plus an extra 52BHP. I don't believe the tires would have gave the Mclaren any extra grip compared the the Quattro system on the R8. If the Trofeo tires were fitted to the R8 the race would not be fair due to excessive grip advantage the R8 would have.
Why do they race cars with different tires? Of course that makes a difference and helps the McLaren a lot. Make these tests real by having both cars wear the same tires. Period.
not a fair comaprison, you should let me drive and test out both cars. 1;20 just too short to test out both cars, the result should be very very close...
Seriously !! you work with cars and didn't expect the result !! or just saying that to make the show interesting. The only advantage the r8 would have had is on a straight line and it didn't. Hence the McLaren beats it on a circuit.
That was BS. On every other track comparison on youtube (Car and driver for example) the McLaren wins hands down. Dont forget: MotorTrend is heavilly sponsored to bias certain cars. (Dodge, Porsche, Mazda, the Corvettes).
Very much true. However, if the McLaren comes on top by almost 10 seconds on a 2m 47s lap time, which has all types of twists and turns off camber on camber low speed mid speed an high speed. It is safe to say the McLaren is a few nods up compared to the Audi.
It still amazes me that Audi won't throw in a turbo or two with that engine!?!?!?! They do it with the S8, why the hell not with the R8???? just weird ......
The car from a flying start can probably do a 17.9 and you guys stand starting are saying the car is only losing about “0.9” of a second compared to a 230kmh flying run. BS
90 percent of the world would still be faster in the audi...but yes a great driver in good conditions.....etc etc. impressive for both. mclaren makes more of a statement. if get the 570GT and be the happy middle ground guy
Of course the track tires on the McLaren made a difference... Should have had the same tires to make this a true test.
Not bad, Audi. For a non-turbo engine you're able to compete with McLaren. 2.4 seconds difference at less than 90k you've done really well.
Puff Of Smoke well it has 4 wheel drive, 2 more cylinders, and it costs $150k+ depending on which version you get.
h
2.4 seconds is like 18 car lengths on such a short track.
Seriously Audi you could have put better tires on the R8
ikr... If they had better tyres, then the Audi may have won both races... :P|
Jxs Gaming but Audi sells better tires for R8 plus but they are optional...
R 700,000 difference.... I can live with the Audi
I'd take the Audi any day.
me mclaren becouse my dream car is the mclaren P1 and 570s is very simular
Completely different cars, if you mean in terms of appearance then they do look somewhat similar.
roshaan rauf there both twin turbo v8 and share a lot of the same parts!
if the audi r8 use better tires maybe r8 will win....
nah on track weight, aero and stiffness is way more important.
dennis cheruiyot tires on the track gives you the most
Buce Yeef Comment is irrelevant since both cars were tested on the tires that the cars come with from the factory
i wanna see the audi with pull up doors
R8 the best!
Great video guys. R8 any day of the week for me.
And the winner is! Corsa tires...
"Audi or Mclaren?" is that a real question?
Yes, why not?
ostin rover with usa v8 motor vs pure racer
**TROFEO R** THAT is a track tire. Are you kidding? The Pirelli Corsas are super basic tires, long lasting ones. Put the McLaren on Pirelli Trofeo R's and you laugh like there is no tomorrow. It will beat the Audi by 5 seconds. Lmao.

These guys are idiots. Bunch of wanna be's
Kondje Des, are these cars both wearing stock tyres or not?
Trevor Bennett yes, both are on stock(factory new) tires. Therefore, the comparison is as accurate as can be.
Kondje Des ..p

Dankie dat jul weer dit in KW en NM sê
I love your videos ciro
The McLaren's M838T Engine is from the P1...wicked engine!
love this video and Host.keep it up Cars.co.za team
Audi r8
this race was rigged
Why do you guys never use a rolling hot lap?
Audi please, that sound and as a daily driver..... thank you sir
Buy the Audi and you'll have fitters with laptops & training manuals to support it. Buy the McLaren and you'll have race engineers to support it.
Nah i'd take the AUDI any day
The huracan vs 570s is a better comparison. The R8 v10 plus is a fair bit slower on track than the huracan.
James Lovett Huracan vs 720s same price point. Huracan gets murdered.
Porsche destroys them all around a track.
Not bad for car manufacturer that makes a handful of cars. The Audi needs all wheel drive because it doesn't have the chassis develpment born through F1
I don't think these guys know that these two aren't direct competitors if they're using the V10 plus R8. The better comparison is using the lower hp V10 against a 562 horsepower McLaren
The real question is porsche gt3rs or 570s ??
Lovely Noises
I will never understand why they don't use the same tires when comparing cars in this nature...
The Tires on the Mclaren just made the race more fair. Bare in mind that the R8 has 4WD plus an extra 52BHP. I don't believe the tires would have gave the Mclaren any extra grip compared the the Quattro system on the R8. If the Trofeo tires were fitted to the R8 the race would not be fair due to excessive grip advantage the R8 would have.
2:23
Audi leads the way...audi...audi...audi
buy the Audi save R511000 go and buy rims and track tires and buy a turbo too while you at it ,call the McLaren for a race and then be happy shhew
Why do they race cars with different tires? Of course that makes a difference and helps the McLaren a lot. Make these tests real by having both cars wear the same tires. Period.
1:18:8 wow 570S
not a fair comaprison, you should let me drive and test out both cars. 1;20 just too short to test out both cars, the result should be very very close...

The only advantage the r8 would have had is on a straight line and it didn't. Hence the McLaren beats it on a circuit.
Didn't the R8 beat the 570's on leguna sega in the 2016 Motor Trend competition?
That was BS. On every other track comparison on youtube (Car and driver for example) the McLaren wins hands down. Dont forget: MotorTrend is heavilly sponsored to bias certain cars. (Dodge, Porsche, Mazda, the Corvettes).
Or different tracks suit cars differently then others.
Very much true. However, if the McLaren comes on top by almost 10 seconds on a 2m 47s lap time, which has all types of twists and turns off camber on camber low speed mid speed an high speed. It is safe to say the McLaren is a few nods up compared to the Audi.
I support the McLaren
audi has been doing this everywhere in the world,
why do they refuse to give out track tires?
I this my Audi is more better. Forever
Maybe altitude had an effect too? I guess that might penalise an NA engine more than a turbo one.
higurro it's Cape Town....sea-level
akingturtle
Right, that's a no then :)
It still amazes me that Audi won't throw in a turbo or two with that engine!?!?!?! They do it with the S8, why the hell not with the R8???? just weird ......
S8 is a 4.0L twin turbo V8 and the R8 is 5.2L V10. completely different engines.
michaelgking87 So? That's not a problem... is it? That's even better, more grunt....
It would never meet emissions requirements and fuel comsumption reduction targets that's why
michaelgking87 Ahaaa.... never thought of that.... those damn emissions.... it's Obama's fault .... :)
mikealanzo even though Audi isn't an American manufacturer. :) :)
sorry guys op comment
@FazeRain

18.8 from standing start my ass
The car from a flying start can probably do a 17.9 and you guys stand starting are saying the car is only losing about “0.9” of a second compared to a 230kmh flying run. BS
☆GREAT CARS☆
kp
Pointless
90 percent of the world would still be faster in the audi...but yes a great driver in good conditions.....etc etc.

mclaren makes more of a statement.

British cars better than the Germans again!
DO you want me to bring a Porsche for you little British car? :)
but you dont own one.....
Fluffy Jerome lol a Porsche of the same price would lose
TheOfficialWizard umm... id think so. remember the new 911? :P
I love British cars!
Thats the difference between an VW AND Mclaren
It's more realistic to say thats the difference between a lambagini and a mclarren, the r8 is basically the same car as the lambagini Huracan!
I love your videos ciro
