To me the coolest part of this is that the GR held up incredibly well in a drag race... for a car that isn't known for going fast in a straight line. Throw all three of these cars onto a curvy road and see who can fly into/out of corners the best
Yeah those 400 kilograms more on the Mustang is going to hurt its cornering. But since its made for the American market that doesn't really matter, its mostly straight roads.
I don't know where these guys got the 3900 pound number for this mustang. The auto s197 gt weight around 3600 so it's only about 300 or so pounds heavier than the Corolla. Or about 136 kg more. I don't think that's enough to make a huge difference in the corners.
The Corolla is impressive because with less than half the number of cylinders, smaller, and consuming less than half the fuel, it achieves the same or more performance. It's impressive, not everything is muscle, you have to be efficient.

Hey, did you guys know that cars can go around corners too? Well, probably not the Mustang or an old Corvette, but the newer Corvettes can. How would the Mustang do against the Corolla on a track? A track with both right AND left turns, that is.
That generation of mustang would kick its rear out a lot but the weight might help it hold the corners, the vette would also probably lose because it's 20 years old. Let's compare a 40k mustang to a 40k corala and see who's faster. Matter fact the s197 generation could still be used, the gt500 is around 30-40k
Really confused about the slow 1/4 mile times here? I was running low 15's in a stock 89 Formula 350 firebird??? Very minor things like underdrive pullies, K&N filter, screens out of mass airflow sensor and relocated MAT sensor and I was running 14.7 1/4 mile times... I thought an LS Vette was good for 13's?
Considering how old the Vette is, and how new the Corolla is, that's damn impressive for the Vette. The GR isn't a drag car so I wont shit on it too much, but that Vette is OP for it's age
And being a mile above sea level, that Corvette has 18 percent less power. The Toyota being turbo is hardly affected by altitude. If this test was at the coast, I think the Vette would have pulled it off. I live a mile high in Africa, and believe me, go to the coast with a naturally aspirated car and you can feel the gain.
@@patrickcannell2258 Exactly. Different outcome for sure if at sea level for those two cars. I lived in Denver for 10 years and the run times at Bandimere Speedway were always slower for NA cars.
@@patrickcannell2258 are you kidding me the 300hp Corolla would run high 12sec 1/4 mi at sea level. They were running 15.7 in the Corolla. That looks like it was effected about 130hp
I love that you guys brought in the 14 mustang gt!! I have one and i love it! Not many people use them in comparisons like these anymore. Thank you for using it in this video!
A 3 cylinder boosted at 26psi to 300hp? 😬 Wonder what the reliability would be in the long run? Would it make it as long as that Corvette? Scary to think if that'll grenade that little thing. But yet again, it's a Toyota. 🤷🏽♂️
If you ever see the thickness of the GRs cylinder walls. It's very thick. Plus there's a group in Australia with a Yaris GR that make 513hp with that 3 cylinder. But like anything. Theres no replacement for displacement
I got a 10y warranty on my GR Yaris, I guess Toyota is confident in their engine. Also, the engine is homologated for Rally2 class of WRC. People run 500+ whp 24/7 for more than a year now (with proper mods of course) and the engine seems quite solid. Check Motive video, they pushed it hard.
Also not to forget, these c5's can frequently get up to 30+mpg (depending on tune and transmission) on highways. In fact, the 1.6l gr corolla and 5.7l corvette both get the same highway mpg rating at 28mpg!
Wish you guys would switch drivers after each race and run it back. To make it more even. Also, I believe you can “manually” (1,2,3,D) shift the automatic corvette instead of waiting 5 minutes for the trans to figure out gear to be in.
Not when you consider that the Mustang driver is incompetent and didn't put it in the right gear. Put the mustang in second and run it again, that Corolla doesn't have a chance.
@@MachineGunSquirrel yea they always like to run these little commuter forces induction cars vs naturally aspirated v8s.but when I bring my Procharged gt with drag radials now they got nothing to say but excuses.mine was manual also .
3:16 "15.75 in the quarter" seems pretty rough, that elevation must be rough! I used to race a stock '95 Ford Probe GT with a rated 164hp at the track on all season tires and my best et was 15.3@89mph.
Boy, you said what I was thinking; I must be missing something also? In 1994, my stock '89 Ford Probe GT clocked 15.11@92.35mph on a cool night at the strip with an alleged "145 hp", which was essentially within published stock times.
It’s a surprisingly slow car, people are having a tough time breaking 5 seconds to 60 and 13.7 in the 1/4. It’s about on par with an EcoBoost mustang, just 20K more😬
Have to remember too that they are racing at a very high elevation. That actually is an advantage for a turbocharged vehicle. The turbo has to work harder to provide the same boost it would at a lower elevation but it still does even at higher elevation. Meaning still closer to the same power as it would make closer to sea level. Even though the Mustang pulled away it would've been even more at lower elevations where the naturally aspirated engine has more oxygen to work with.
I'm not too sure about that when comparing it to the corolla engine the mustang has an extra 3.4 litres of displacement for roughly 4% added acceleration.
@@markgallagher5908sure, but you're doing the same thing. You're taking away from the fact that the coyote motor is an amazing engine. The only reason the gr was keeping up was because of the launch. The awd kept it in the race. Not the power output. Despite being behind from the launch. The coyote still steamrolled past the GR once they were going past 40. And kept going. Toyota did a good job with the gr, but for also did a good job with the coyote.
Great fun guys. While performance will be continue to evolve into different packages, we still have good options. Nothing beats the sound of a small block V-8.
@@fishii8237 Toyota has nothing for the enthusiast just 4 cylinders some 6 Nothing budget wise for a normal person. That's why everybody puts GM engines into toyotas
I love these old vettes. I remember seeing the first LS vette at a dealer in STL w my Dad in 1996. Was shocked to see the brochure stating a 4-something, 0-60, and a advertised. 1/4 at 13.2. A year later, I went to the mailbox and grabbed my CnD magazine in late 97, to read that they tested the 98 LS1 TA 4a, and it ran a 13.2 at 108. Check the archives. That was rather generous though. I've never driven that gen corvette, but I use to smoke them on the reg, in my old TFS, e-cam, bot on na Fox, though. Can't tell you how many t5 3rd gear inout shafts I blew through. During the rev, at the 3:50 race, it has sunk in, how heavy those flywheels must have been. All cars use to be that way though. veroooooooooooom opposed to vroom vroom. Would like to own a affordable, clean, 100k mile LS1 vette in the future, and nows the time, as clean examples are still cheap, but are increasing in price atm w no signs of slowing down. I'll bite next recession, hope I'm not in my 70s when that happens. If so, I'll still bite. Fun vid, keep it up guys!
I'm surprised at the 1/4 mile times. Last year while I vacationed in Denver, I took my '18 v6 Camaro(335 hp and about 3400 lbs) to Bandimere and went a 15:07 @ 95 mph
@kychristell1779 A hot Hatch and a performance car are 2 things. How many 1.6L motors are considered a performance motor? Motive Video in Australia tuned the Yaris with the same motor to 500hp unopened.
That Mustang is probably 1/3 the price of that lawnmower. I'm still astounded by anyone who'll be willing to shell out $67 large for this thing. Wonders never cease
Kelly Blue Book fair purchase price on a ‘99 Vette is $15k. $67k - $15k = $52k left over to mod the Corvette. Can you imagine the MONSTER Vette that can be built with $52,000 in modifications?
It's not really a fair race when you have a 'vette with a 4 speed auto. We used to call the 4 speeds the "Auto-tragic". 6 speed vette would be a different story. It's really amazing how far auto transmissions have come in the last 20 years.
GM really screwed the automatic Vette with the stock 2.73 gearing. The optional 3.15 turns it into a completely different car off the line, damn near a second quicker 0-60.
I've always preferred Chevy and the LS when it comes to domestic. When it comes to mods, durability, reliability and after market support but when it comes to sound the 5.0 always sounded way better for me and if you throw the GT350 voodoo engine in to the equation then that thing is absolute musical symphony
I've been wondering about the potential on it too. They're already squeezing 300hp out of it, so I'm curious if the aftermarket will be able to get much more out of that little three cylinder without killing the engine's lifespan. 300hp might be pretty close to its limit.
@@tizodd6 The Yaris GR has been out for a a while and proven that the 3cyl is a stout unit. They are making 500hp with simple mods reliably, very overbuilt engines.
@@norwegianblue2017the point is the pinnacle from decades past vs a modern hot hatch. It’s a show of how far technology has come, the hottest Corolla from the c5s era wouldn’t have held a candle to it, same with the 5.0.
40k will land a low mileage GT performance pack, which would absolutely slaughter the GR on a paved track and on the street. For what they’re actually selling for a mach1 is in the mix which is an even bigger beat down.
Silly that they raced 10 and 20 year old muscle cars against a brand new GR. The new mustang gt is still cheaper than a GR corolla and substantially faster than the 10+ year old one.
One of the best tools these guys could use is a draggy for actual braking data. When you're going off cones its not 100% accurate as reaction time can play a role and where exactly you start braking is a factor. Also it would be great to swap drivers in these cars to get a better sample size for drivers that aren't as fast. Cool to see how aged cars still hold up to new stuff tho. You just don't have the best data as to how old the brake fluid is, pad/rotor, or tire condition. Also having manual vs auto isn't a perfect sample.
That C5 sounded great! The S197 was the all around best performance car there. And the Corolla was the one that I’d probably want as my daily, out of those 3.
In Europe 5.0 litres is a "massive engine". We never had the low gasoline prices of the USA, so 5.0 litres was the preserve of very high end luxury cars, or high end performance cars.
It isn't a big block, but it's still a big V8 in modern times. A 5.0L DOHC Coyote is roughly the same size physically as 6.2L LT pushrod engine, because the heads are huge comparatively.
Via displacement though, as engines are measured... It isn't a massive engine, one of the smallest really... Now a 632... You can call that massive lol, 10.8 liters, but 5.0 is about as low as the spectrum goes on V8s. But physically... Yeah coyotes are huge haha
manual transmissions are well known to be slower in drag races than automatics. That's why there's an actual stick shift class in most drag race events.
@@KrayZieTyler maybe in built drag cars, but for this Corvette specifically the manual was significantly faster. The 4 speed auto in that Vette is garbage dude
@@KrayZieTylerthe guy above, @fox488, is correct. A drag specific transmission or a modern DCT would be faster in a straight line than a manual… But the C5 vette had neither, because it had a slush box who not only shifted significantly slower than a manual, but the gear ratios were also way worse
Interesting times for the vette 😆. I remember my old 1998 trans-am ls1 was pulling 1/4 mile times in the 13 sec area with a heavier body and SLOWER manual gearbox *auto is easier to launch!, so how a lighter vette was about 16 seconds is hilarious, they were never that slow. From a roll, if you are using manual transmission then you should also downshift too to be fair, autos usually have a sport mode for that (that should have been utilized. )
Corvettes also came with better Servo's which is why we usually use them on other applications. One could have speculations as to what happened but all it matters is that in THIS situation it took an L regardless of why
100 mph trap should be a 13.8 second. So the elevation makes a huge difference for the NA cars. That mustang should be knocking 12s at sea level. (also tires and good gas Yada Yada I'm couch racing here) I'd like to see a last gen VA sti and evo x vs the corolla. Should be closer.
All wheel drive is just wicked from the launch. Don't make it a habit though, because if you're not spinning the tires, youre spining the clutch. 😊 Good tires on a rear wheel drive car vastly improves launch times as well. I enjoyed the video though. Driving those small, light, turbo cars are so much fun!! I had a supercharged coyote that was ridiculously fast. Never had enough traction. 😂
The fiesta and the focus was Fords answer to the hot hatch arena but that dual clutch trans pos took both models out there were good looking cars and the st and rs versions fierce especially European models. My dad had a 2012 fiesta se auto not fast but it was fun to drive but in the end the trans went for a second time out of warranty and unfortunately just not worth it. I wondered if they were sold with a manual non st that would be a reliable set up perhaps but I think most sadly were autos and when ford stuck the 3 cy in the fiesta vs the 1.6 the party was over 🎉
Lord the elevation must really be killing power. With good tires and driver that corvette was perfectly capable of 13 flat off the showroom. Not to take anything away from the GR.... pretty cool
The auto was a bit slower but yeah something is off with that car. I thought I noticed a slight miss when they revved it. The slow time on the Mustang can be explained by the wheel spin. Both cars should have absolutely slaughtered the GR from a roll.
8:45 Explanation for what you're seeing here: The Mustang had spotted, in the very far distance, some 'Cars & Coffee' people standing on a sidewalk, in the next county.
Awesome video, that's incredible a 3 cylinder is doing all that work. I'd like to see how they compare on the back roads on some curves, I'd say that would favor the GR by a good bit.
It does, small turboed engines can be quite powerfull. The question is usual - for how long? Will they last, say, 15 years? They aren't even made with that in mind. As for cornering, don't forget that it's japanese city compact vs american muscle car. As cornering goes, muscle cars weren't ever good at it and as I don't really know about the Mustang, I'm pretty sure that Corvette wouldn't go too fast. But I might be wrong, very much depends on the driver.
Yes. What you say is true but with Tesla you support a moronic dude with a God complex just to get the worse built car in the world. If you had said one of the good electric cars good on you but Tesla will lose out to the others because they've stopped innovating and can't get anything new to market. Look at Hyundai coming up in the rear view mirror.
Don't let the fun idea of the video carry you away, GR is decent off the line but its going to destroy any Tesla doing what its designed to do, rally racing, dirt/sand/mud type of driving. Of course the electric motor is unfair in drag races dollar for dollar.
It's really not. People make a big deal out of it and act like it's a good thing or a cool thing. Why? You can generally do anything when you add a turbocharger and turn up the boost. I'd rather have a bigger engine that's less strained making just as much or more power, is smoother and has more potential than a toy-like go-kart engine all boosted up. And than look at the price they want for these souped up puddle jumpers, lol. No thanks. You can get a new Mustang GT for the same price and it will blow this things doors off. It can't even come close to keeping up with an almost 10 year old mustang from 2 gens past. I fail to see what's impressive about it.
As a former 3x Mustang owner and current STI owner, I gotta say I knew the corolla was gonna beat them. They didn’t mention if it was the LSD model or not, but if he had done a proper boosted launch he would have rolled the mustang too. And at a racetrack it would have been bloody. And in any sort of weather. Dudes are super mad. That corolla handles like crazy too. And they sound better with an exhaust than I-4’s. The important thing is that too many “car guys” aren’t driving enthusiasts, they’re fanboys who try to insult every other platform Me? I love driving all different types of platforms. As long as they’re manual and analog as possible. Stop bashing. Start driving things before you judge them. Fun fact. Won’t hear many Mustang owners say this: but I had more fun in 1 afternoon rallying a stock fiesta st than I ever had with my muscle cars. Burnouts are fun too, but nowhere near as fun as liftoff oversteering that little crapbox fiesta st around on a rally type dirt road lol. Once you really start to get some car control stuff under your belt you start to see just how fun driving great handling cars is, especially if they’re analog and not having computers make them handle
The Coyote engine in that GT was a real gem! Just so far removed from the archaic pushrod 302 they used for so many years. Still the best bang for the buck car money can buy.

I'd rather see it race with a modern 6 speed or more auto. You can't manually change as fast as say a ZF.
I'd like to see the corvette at wide open throttle.
The 5.0 pulls great up top.

This was a really fun one to watch. The corvette has lost some ponies over the years. This Corolla is impressive, it’ll be interesting to see what the gear heads come up with for the aftermarket.
Don't even bother with aftermarket, all cars will be all electric by 2035 😆
The corvettes problem is its a 4 speed. they put stupid high gears in the 4 speed auto cars. It's basically a cruiser with those gears.

Hey, did you guys know that cars can go around corners too? Well, probably not the Mustang or an old Corvette, but the newer Corvettes can. How would the Mustang do against the Corolla on a track? A track with both right AND left turns, that is.
That generation of mustang would kick its rear out a lot but the weight might help it hold the corners, the vette would also probably lose because it's 20 years old. Let's compare a 40k mustang to a 40k corala and see who's faster. Matter fact the s197 generation could still be used, the gt500 is around 30-40k
Really confused about the slow 1/4 mile times here? I was running low 15's in a stock 89 Formula 350 firebird??? Very minor things like underdrive pullies, K&N filter, screens out of mass airflow sensor and relocated MAT sensor and I was running 14.7 1/4 mile times... I thought an LS Vette was good for 13's?
Considering how old the Vette is, and how new the Corolla is, that's damn impressive for the Vette. The GR isn't a drag car so I wont shit on it too much, but that Vette is OP for it's age
And being a mile above sea level, that Corvette has 18 percent less power. The Toyota being turbo is hardly affected by altitude. If this test was at the coast, I think the Vette would have pulled it off. I live a mile high in Africa, and believe me, go to the coast with a naturally aspirated car and you can feel the gain.
Lmao really can’t shit on it, most owned old vettes are automatic which is a loss within itself🤣
@@patrickcannell2258 Exactly. Different outcome for sure if at sea level for those two cars. I lived in Denver for 10 years and the run times at Bandimere Speedway were always slower for NA cars.
15.9 is pathetic even at that altitude

A 3 cylinder boosted at 26psi to 300hp? 😬 Wonder what the reliability would be in the long run? Would it make it as long as that Corvette? Scary to think if that'll grenade that little thing. But yet again, it's a Toyota. 🤷🏽♂️
@Gchang54because Japanese turbo cars totally aren't known for exploding lol
If you ever see the thickness of the GRs cylinder walls. It's very thick. Plus there's a group in Australia with a Yaris GR that make 513hp with that 3 cylinder. But like anything. Theres no replacement for displacement
Its a toyota and not a ford so it will last forever like most toyotas out there
I got a 10y warranty on my GR Yaris, I guess Toyota is confident in their engine. Also, the engine is homologated for Rally2 class of WRC. People run 500+ whp 24/7 for more than a year now (with proper mods of course) and the engine seems quite solid. Check Motive video, they pushed it hard.
It extremely reliable. They are getting 500+ hp out of these cars with no issues.
The corvette and mustang should had a stick to be a to get better results to compare. In my opinion.
Shouldn’t the 3 cars be at least from the same year?
Also not to forget, these c5's can frequently get up to 30+mpg (depending on tune and transmission) on highways. In fact, the 1.6l gr corolla and 5.7l corvette both get the same highway mpg rating at 28mpg!
I just sold my 11 grand sport with a btr stage 3 cam, catless longtubes and other supporting mods. It easily got 26-28 mpg cruising at 80 mph
No Corvette gets 30+ mpg, regardless of tune, so let’s forget about that. Even my Miata doesn’t get quite 30.

Wish you guys would switch drivers after each race and run it back. To make it more even. Also, I believe you can “manually” (1,2,3,D) shift the automatic corvette instead of waiting 5 minutes for the trans to figure out gear to be in.

All you have to do with the Corvette is pre gear it, meaning put it in the gear that it is most advantageous to take off at 30 miles.
For the gr corrolla price....jeez you can get a decent scatpack or even a alfa romero for that price and have 2x the power
The GR3 is the little engine that could. The 30mph roll test against the Mustang GT was impressive.
Not when you consider that the Mustang driver is incompetent and didn't put it in the right gear. Put the mustang in second and run it again, that Corolla doesn't have a chance.

@@DS22723 I love the rear quarter panels on that car. It reminds me of the 1968 model Mustang. Absolutely beautiful lines.
3:16 "15.75 in the quarter" seems pretty rough, that elevation must be rough! I used to race a stock '95 Ford Probe GT with a rated 164hp at the track on all season tires and my best et was 15.3@89mph.
Boy, you said what I was thinking; I must be missing something also? In 1994, my stock '89 Ford Probe GT clocked 15.11@92.35mph on a cool night at the strip with an alleged "145 hp", which was essentially within published stock times.
It’s a surprisingly slow car, people are having a tough time breaking 5 seconds to 60 and 13.7 in the 1/4. It’s about on par with an EcoBoost mustang, just 20K more😬
Sounds like the Vette is misfiring at 7:51.

I really liked how you guys didn't force in lots of mean "banter" and made it cringe, you mostly just explained the cars.
Have to remember too that they are racing at a very high elevation. That actually is an advantage for a turbocharged vehicle. The turbo has to work harder to provide the same boost it would at a lower elevation but it still does even at higher elevation. Meaning still closer to the same power as it would make closer to sea level. Even though the Mustang pulled away it would've been even more at lower elevations where the naturally aspirated engine has more oxygen to work with.
I live at that very high elevation. That Yote should have ripped the doors off of that GR.
These guys can’t drive.
... and the turbo car engine will be shot in the x number of years from now compared to the age of that Mustang up to now

This was a fun idea. The Mustang and the Coyote engine are incredible.
I'm not too sure about that when comparing it to the corolla engine the mustang has an extra 3.4 litres of displacement for roughly 4% added acceleration.
@@markgallagher5908 I just think a lighter car with decent horsepower and an all wheel launch is a formula that can beat pure muscle.

@@markgallagher5908sure, but you're doing the same thing. You're taking away from the fact that the coyote motor is an amazing engine. The only reason the gr was keeping up was because of the launch. The awd kept it in the race. Not the power output. Despite being behind from the launch. The coyote still steamrolled past the GR once they were going past 40. And kept going. Toyota did a good job with the gr, but for also did a good job with the coyote.

I love these old vettes. I remember seeing the first LS vette at a dealer in STL w my Dad in 1996. Was shocked to see the brochure stating a 4-something, 0-60, and a advertised. 1/4 at 13.2. A year later, I went to the mailbox and grabbed my CnD magazine in late 97, to read that they tested the 98 LS1 TA 4a, and it ran a 13.2 at 108. Check the archives. That was rather generous though. I've never driven that gen corvette, but I use to smoke them on the reg, in my old TFS, e-cam, bot on na Fox, though. Can't tell you how many t5 3rd gear inout shafts I blew through. During the rev, at the 3:50 race, it has sunk in, how heavy those flywheels must have been. All cars use to be that way though. veroooooooooooom opposed to vroom vroom. Would like to own a affordable, clean, 100k mile LS1 vette in the future, and nows the time, as clean examples are still cheap, but are increasing in price atm w no signs of slowing down. I'll bite next recession, hope I'm not in my 70s when that happens. If so, I'll still bite. Fun vid, keep it up guys!
I'm surprised at the 1/4 mile times. Last year while I vacationed in Denver, I took my '18 v6 Camaro(335 hp and about 3400 lbs) to Bandimere and went a 15:07 @ 95 mph
@kychristell1779 Not @ a mile above sea level though.
@kychristell1779 A hot Hatch and a performance car are 2 things. How many 1.6L motors are considered a performance motor? Motive Video in Australia tuned the Yaris with the same motor to 500hp unopened.

Kelly Blue Book fair purchase price on a ‘99 Vette is $15k. $67k - $15k = $52k left over to mod the Corvette. Can you imagine the MONSTER Vette that can be built with $52,000 in modifications?
You guys having so much fun racing makes this video great.
It's not really a fair race when you have a 'vette with a 4 speed auto. We used to call the 4 speeds the "Auto-tragic". 6 speed vette would be a different story. It's really amazing how far auto transmissions have come in the last 20 years.
GM really screwed the automatic Vette with the stock 2.73 gearing. The optional 3.15 turns it into a completely different car off the line, damn near a second quicker 0-60.

I've always preferred Chevy and the LS when it comes to domestic. When it comes to mods, durability, reliability and after market support but when it comes to sound the 5.0 always sounded way better for me and if you throw the GT350 voodoo engine in to the equation then that thing is absolute musical symphony
As a die hard camaro guy, I currently have the GT350 and you are so right!
That Corolla is impressive for sure. I wonder about longevity though.
I've been wondering about the potential on it too. They're already squeezing 300hp out of it, so I'm curious if the aftermarket will be able to get much more out of that little three cylinder without killing the engine's lifespan.
300hp might be pretty close to its limit.
Questioning Toyotas 300hp reliability out of that 3 banger? There is nothing to question here.
@@tizodd6 The Yaris GR has been out for a a while and proven that the 3cyl is a stout unit. They are making 500hp with simple mods reliably, very overbuilt engines.

Good to see you back Kase missed ya!

That 5.0 stang kills either... even with the worst gears and tires
It's over a mile above sea level so it's being robbed of like 15 or 20% of sea level power so that's why it's slower than expected
Plus it’s the slush box transmission
4 speed auto corvettes come with ridiculously high gearing in the rear end take off is abysmal.

Silly that they raced 10 and 20 year old muscle cars against a brand new GR. The new mustang gt is still cheaper than a GR corolla and substantially faster than the 10+ year old one.
lol they knew what they were doing...im taking a GT or R/T over that Corolla anyday.
That poor corvette is about clapped out!😂
that old ass corvette held its own tho
One of the best tools these guys could use is a draggy for actual braking data. When you're going off cones its not 100% accurate as reaction time can play a role and where exactly you start braking is a factor. Also it would be great to swap drivers in these cars to get a better sample size for drivers that aren't as fast. Cool to see how aged cars still hold up to new stuff tho. You just don't have the best data as to how old the brake fluid is, pad/rotor, or tire condition. Also having manual vs auto isn't a perfect sample.
I agree on that....those numbers they got are Not making sense, wayyy too low a distance..
@@skip741x3 Yeah a non-PP Mustang beating a 458 in braking is impossible.
That C5 sounded great! The S197 was the all around best performance car there. And the Corolla was the one that I’d probably want as my daily, out of those 3.
The Corolla is very impressive given the small displacement. Just one correction, however, a Corvette is not a "muscle car", it is a sports car.
Which rear-end gears are in the C5? If they are the 2.73s and not the optional 3.23s then non wonder it's so slow.
lol at the title calling a 5.0 a "MASSIVE V8" 😂
In Europe 5.0 litres is a "massive engine". We never had the low gasoline prices of the USA, so 5.0 litres was the preserve of very high end luxury cars, or high end performance cars.
and the award for "most ametican comment" goes to.......
It isn't a big block, but it's still a big V8 in modern times. A 5.0L DOHC Coyote is roughly the same size physically as 6.2L LT pushrod engine, because the heads are huge comparatively.
@@chrism.728yep gotta fit 2 cams on each side, 16 valves on each side and the 2 timing chains.
Via displacement though, as engines are measured... It isn't a massive engine, one of the smallest really... Now a 632... You can call that massive lol, 10.8 liters, but 5.0 is about as low as the spectrum goes on V8s. But physically... Yeah coyotes are huge haha
Great race, would be also interesting to see how much of a difference would it make if the Vette had a manual transmission
manual transmissions are well known to be slower in drag races than automatics. That's why there's an actual stick shift class in most drag race events.
@@KrayZieTyler maybe in built drag cars, but for this Corvette specifically the manual was significantly faster. The 4 speed auto in that Vette is garbage dude
@@KrayZieTylerthe guy above, @fox488, is correct. A drag specific transmission or a modern DCT would be faster in a straight line than a manual…
But the C5 vette had neither, because it had a slush box who not only shifted significantly slower than a manual, but the gear ratios were also way worse
Interesting times for the vette 😆. I remember my old 1998 trans-am ls1 was pulling 1/4 mile times in the 13 sec area with a heavier body and SLOWER manual gearbox *auto is easier to launch!, so how a lighter vette was about 16 seconds is hilarious, they were never that slow.
From a roll, if you are using manual transmission then you should also downshift too to be fair, autos usually have a sport mode for that (that should have been utilized. )
Corvettes also came with better Servo's which is why we usually use them on other applications. One could have speculations as to what happened but all it matters is that in THIS situation it took an L regardless of why
They are testing from a mile high. That C5 should be mid 13s or faster at sea level. However, it's also old, so who knows the condition of the engine.
Try one of the new mustang 5.0s they come with 10 speeds that’s all I gotta say
100 mph trap should be a 13.8 second. So the elevation makes a huge difference for the NA cars. That mustang should be knocking 12s at sea level. (also tires and good gas Yada Yada I'm couch racing here) I'd like to see a last gen VA sti and evo x vs the corolla. Should be closer.
Turbos wear out engines quick. Like to see how it holds up over time
VERY VALID POINT. I am not crazy about turbo gasoline engines for this reason. Diesel must be turbo on the other hand.
They've lasted fine for years in the yaris just fine. It's a toyota. They've been doing turbo engines reliably for over 40 years. It will be fine
Toyota engineers VERY well vehicles however that's a lot of boost so time will tell.
That Mustang is not 3900 lbs.
with them in it it is, lol
@ryanj116 😳
Yeah, I agree. Definitely not.
Yep i thought that too that year mustang is right around 3600 lbs
Correct, it's more like 3600 lbs.
Why do you compere 5.0 monsters vs 1.5 tines??
All wheel drive is just wicked from the launch. Don't make it a habit though, because if you're not spinning the tires, youre spining the clutch. 😊 Good tires on a rear wheel drive car vastly improves launch times as well. I enjoyed the video though. Driving those small, light, turbo cars are so much fun!!
I had a supercharged coyote that was ridiculously fast. Never had enough traction. 😂
Great video again guys! The corvette isn't slow at all!
Thank you for watching.
When stats are displayed or discussed, you guys should also throw in what you paid for each car in the tests.
I wonder how my modified Ford Fiesta ST would do against these 2 muscle cars...my 2019 Fiesta ST has got some torque.
And their fun as hell to drive. I have a 2015 Focus ST that's a blast to drive. Too bad ford discontinued both those cars in the US.😢
The fiesta and the focus was Fords answer to the hot hatch arena but that dual clutch trans pos took both models out there were good looking cars and the st and rs versions fierce especially European models. My dad had a 2012 fiesta se auto not fast but it was fun to drive but in the end the trans went for a second time out of warranty and unfortunately just not worth it. I wondered if they were sold with a manual non st that would be a reliable set up perhaps but I think most sadly were autos and when ford stuck the 3 cy in the fiesta vs the 1.6 the party was over 🎉
@lincolnman78markv they did make a 5 speed manual option for the Fiesta and the Focus and if you get the ST or RS Focus they come with a 6 speed
@lincolnman78markv I bought my daughter a 2015 Fiesta with a 1.6 litre and it came with a 5 speed manual. She loves her Fiesta.
They proved that it can hang with 20 year old v8s? My passat is comparable to my stock 94 mustang gt, by no means does that make my passat fast🤦♂️
I can't take anything they do seriously.
Lord the elevation must really be killing power. With good tires and driver that corvette was perfectly capable of 13 flat off the showroom.
Not to take anything away from the GR.... pretty cool
Same with the GT it does a 12.7
The auto was a bit slower but yeah something is off with that car. I thought I noticed a slight miss when they revved it. The slow time on the Mustang can be explained by the wheel spin. Both cars should have absolutely slaughtered the GR from a roll.
This was great! Loved the enthusiasm here from y’all! No hardcore stats just damn fun!
The corvette and mustang should have been manuals they would have been way faster and the Corolla wouldn’t have stood a chance
8:45 Explanation for what you're seeing here: The Mustang had spotted, in the very far distance, some 'Cars & Coffee' people standing on a sidewalk, in the next county.
“Exciting Performance Car” and “Corolla” should never be said in the same sentence, ever…
Awesome video, that's incredible a 3 cylinder is doing all that work. I'd like to see how they compare on the back roads on some curves, I'd say that would favor the GR by a good bit.
It does, small turboed engines can be quite powerfull. The question is usual - for how long? Will they last, say, 15 years? They aren't even made with that in mind.
As for cornering, don't forget that it's japanese city compact vs american muscle car. As cornering goes, muscle cars weren't ever good at it and as I don't really know about the Mustang, I'm pretty sure that Corvette wouldn't go too fast. But I might be wrong, very much depends on the driver.
Corvette would be superior by a mile
For the record... Corvette, since '84, has been a sports car with muscle, not a muscle car
@@davidquarells8474 whatever the name changes...
The price Toyota is asking for the GR is ridiculous. You could get a Tesla Model 3 for the same price or less and blow its doors off.
Yes. What you say is true but with Tesla you support a moronic dude with a God complex just to get the worse built car in the world. If you had said one of the good electric cars good on you but Tesla will lose out to the others because they've stopped innovating and can't get anything new to market. Look at Hyundai coming up in the rear view mirror.
There are manual Tesla's? That's amazing!
Don't let the fun idea of the video carry you away, GR is decent off the line but its going to destroy any Tesla doing what its designed to do, rally racing, dirt/sand/mud type of driving. Of course the electric motor is unfair in drag races dollar for dollar.
But the toyota keeps its price.
But he wants a EV piece of crap Tesla💩....
🤔 would be nice to see a video comparing the GR to other high hp awd sport hatchbacks as far as price, reliability, performance,etc...
No substitute for CC's.......... Swap drivers for the first race and the result would be reversed. The drivers are way apart in weight..🤣🤣
Very impressive from a3 cylinder.
It's really not. People make a big deal out of it and act like it's a good thing or a cool thing. Why? You can generally do anything when you add a turbocharger and turn up the boost. I'd rather have a bigger engine that's less strained making just as much or more power, is smoother and has more potential than a toy-like go-kart engine all boosted up. And than look at the price they want for these souped up puddle jumpers, lol. No thanks. You can get a new Mustang GT for the same price and it will blow this things doors off. It can't even come close to keeping up with an almost 10 year old mustang from 2 gens past. I fail to see what's impressive about it.

As a former 3x Mustang owner and current STI owner, I gotta say I knew the corolla was gonna beat them. They didn’t mention if it was the LSD model or not, but if he had done a proper boosted launch he would have rolled the mustang too.
And at a racetrack it would have been bloody.
And in any sort of weather.

Fun fact. Won’t hear many Mustang owners say this: but I had more fun in 1 afternoon rallying a stock fiesta st than I ever had with my muscle cars. Burnouts are fun too, but nowhere near as fun as liftoff oversteering that little crapbox fiesta st around on a rally type dirt road lol.

@@newfie-dean5803they can build it all they want, the cooling system WILL fail. The cooling holes are tiny and will get plugged, and huge boost in a 3 cylinder will blow a gasket. Toyota are pretty unreliable already, can't imaging this thing.
