@yeaimthatguy24 ........no it wasnt a race was never intented to be, justa video that appeared online that the cal-looker new nothing about........still very cool thou.
Both VW and Honda are loud... But the beetle is the only one of the two that can bite as hard as it barks.. Moral of the story: Don't rice a honda because, it will either sound like a vaccum cleaner, or a weed wacker and either way they are going to be slow.
This has always been one of my fav vids. Great to see one of the bugs from the SASRennwagens guys in action. Is this footage along the A34 somewhere near Newcastle. I was trying to see if I recognised any of it.

i have a beetle bug with a 2180 cc fuel injected turbo engine running at 7 psi of boost and let me tell you that i used to race at street lights but not any more , and i enjoy taking for surprise diferent car brands because they cant never imagine what the bug will do every time i race and its a pleasure that no money on the world cant buy.

i do the same thing at a starting ligth. when a little honda pull over next to me n i smoke his ass, they always ask me how? i always get them by suprise.
Its a about Power to Weight, Plus people have been street and drag racing these bugs since the early 60's so have had a lot of time to develop the rite stuff, i.e perfromance mods, suspension set ups etc, plus Bug's just kick ass and thats the way it works =)
bugs are such little sleepers... you see one and think aww look at that rusty tin can.. then this happens to ya.. im more a mini fan as i own 2 of them but bugs are nice little cars..
@Xerxes371 I know this comment is like MAJOR late but, their horsepower is low because their designed redline is under the formula to calculate it.
Torque X RPM / 5252 = Horsepower.
For the most part, stock engines top out around 4500-5000RPM. The valve springs will start to float and will cause either loss of power or engine damage. So in order to get more horsepower you need to get more RPM's.
But like it's been said before, it's their power to weight ratio that makes them fly like that.
Our Club Member Didnt even know this video was being made and was totally suprised when he found out it was on here, He was on his way to a club meet, this has to be one of my all time Fav's.
I own a 1600tp beetle with twin dellorto 40's, engle cams and speedshop S/S exhaust. it will never make 100bhp, barely 70bhp. Dirtdevil stop talking bollox
im not talking any "bollox" webers are bigger then dellorto 40's and i dont mean the mini webers, and with the dual port heads which is on super beetels would bring about 100 hp i own a 1970
What do you mean by webers are bigger then dellorto 40's? 40 dells flow better then 40 webers. They are both awesome carbs, but the dells always flow better then equally sized webers. I also dont think 100 hp will be coming from a 1600 easily, especially with stock super beetle heads.
good on the beetle. The same thing happened to a poor subaru when it got up behind my Isetta. 0-60 4 secs the scooby didn't have a chance. Check out my vids.
lol. thats what you get for owning a honda. jk. actualy i hate hondas. anyway, bugs can be pretty quick if you drop the right motor in there. mine has a 2.0 porsche motor. vids will be up in a few days.
i used to drive '04 GLI with upgraded turbo and i never let a honda of any kind get pass my front bumper when launch at red light..hahaha, and yeah, i'm kidding too..:)
(exclude the NSX, S2000, and Acura RL because i've never race them before which i probably won't win anyway)
That was filmed on the A34 in Newcastle-Under-Lyme (Staffordshire) heading towards Trent Vale, The City General hospital is on the left (starting at the blue railings)
done dude thanks :-) very true looks like you had fun thou dude when did u realise he cud do that? you said you was messing about before a34? cheers dude
yeah the guys running a 2332cc motor, i can hardly believe your car is standard, unless you just put a loud exhaust on it, and generally serves you right for getting up his arse.

How come beetles are so fast with so little horsepower. And how come they can walk boosted civics like their baby toys?

i bet it the stock 1600 built up with weber carbs. that would be pushing around 100hp and will take little hondas all day

My car is a 100% bog standard 1.4 16v, what would be the point in putting a loud exhaust on a 1.4, just makes you look like a tit.
Can you tell me more about the motor the beetle has in it? Do you know the guy?
