@Xelathercdriver yeah, only real with a driver that actually has skill and a car that actually is fast. But besides that, its just like Fast and Furious. ;-)
@Finq08 It seems to me like your knowledge on motorsports in general is very limited, and only limited to American motorsports. You should watch the speed channel and indulge in more sophisticated (and yes, faster) forms of racing. One good example on just how much faster 4wd is - is the Escudo Pikes Peak run. Yeah, its the unlimited class, but it does prove the point that 4wd is the faster form of racing.
@Einhander49 I dont get the Speed Channel where I live.
I dont doubt at all that 4WD is WAY faster in rally. But it simply isnt if you're driving on an asphalt race track.
Or, if you think it is, why's every touring car for example RWD? Only because they dont have 1200bhp , because that much power would be faster? That makes no sense.
@Finq08 AWD can be faster or slower, it all depends on the class of racing and what the rules permit. Time Attack for example is filled with road going AWD vehicles. Look up the Cyber Evo which holds the top record at many famous racetracks; it is AWD. Really it all comes down to how much tuning has been done to the vehicle. There are many fast RWD Time Attack cars as well, it just depends on how the vehicle is set up and what it will be used for. There are even competitive FWD cars out there.
What an absolutely epic film! This is one of the best driving vids on youtube I've seen (secretly, it made me pop over to Hyundai's website to check the price on a Genesis).
Forgot to mention Rhys's time is faster than the Motorcycle 1205 CC Division. Haha...in modern terms that's clownin'...old folks sorry I don't know what you would say...cool?
What can you say? That's freaking amazing. Time of 12:09.397!!! The next runner up was 13:32.445. That's a huge difference. Go Rhys and Hyundai. Very impressive.
Oh yeah, sure. Hyundai must suck since these guys bothered to use this car for one of the hardest races on earth. Not to mention it set a record at the Peak. The Genesis Coupe has a ton of sport potencial. The majority of car manufactures are of equal quality these days. Its what you do with the car once you get it home that makes a difference.
haha yeah i never thought id see the day hyundai impressed me but here it is ;) good to see more companies make better performance cars, especially for such little cost!
talkin' chalk are you shitin' me, you mentioned FORD and DURABILITY (not to mention BEST, but that's a different story) in the same paragraph, if you want durability you have to go over to the jap market, Honda's Vtec has had zero insurgence claims. that's out of 15 million engines
great achievement! To me, the credit goes to the team behind the conception of this monster, and to the pilot for beeing able to handle that monster (even though i'm still on my race appettite... too much footage, not enough racing)... But no credit for the brand on the car... take any production car as a base, and put about a million dollars in engineering, considering you have specs that rules you, and in the end, you will pretty much have the same car, whether it's an Audi, a Toyota or a Kia.
yes, its a production Ford SVT F-150 Raptor. a pre-runner truck made for the street. comes with the stock 5.4L V8 you find in a regular F-150 which only has 320hp and 380ft. lbs. or torque. later in 2010, the truck will recieve the new 6.2L Boss V8 which is supposed to have over 400hp.
Yeah fuck thumb downers! Unless its a really stupid post, which yours wasnt, you were simply stating facts. Some people are just haters. And im sure i just earned some thumb downs myself, probably from your thumb downer haha. fuck it, its youtube, it doesnt control my life!
Mikelaren101: You're an idiot. Wake up and smell the coffee. WTF? Hyundai is one of the Worlds top 5. Have you even driven one? It'll kill any piece of American Crap car. Get out of the bushes. Wake the F up.
I rather buy a mitshubitshi, subaru, honda, hell even a toyota, I think kia and Hyundai in my thought dont have those decades of motor history. If you were to choose from a Honda or a Hyundai what would you pick?
I feel ya on that one. Though Hyundai is making its name, i.e. Millen's World Record Run at Pikes Peak in a Genesis, a car that has only been out for a few month's. They are coming up, just like Mitsubishi, Subaru, Honda and Toyota did at one point. And as for the Honda or Hyundai question, I WOULD pick a Honda just as I'm sure you would. No particular reason for it, just more favorable to me.
well if he's serious about MOTORSPORT he should go with the hyundai, rwd is always better than some econobox fwd turned racer like the si's they are good, but there's so much a platform can do, especially when you add turns and power to the equation. now if it were an s200 that's another strory...
if i took a toyota prius ad slapped a porsche badge over it would you pick it over a supra/ nsx/etc.?
The brand just doesn't have a reputation for racing, but time can fix that. I was impressed they didn't invent a new brand (like toyota/lexus honda/acura, etc. those new brands are just marketing strategy)
now a rwd sports coupe, with a decent suspension and reasonable price to boot is a pretty impresive offering these days when honda doesn't even carry a rwd sportscar....
ITs like, history repeating itself, remeber when toyota did come out with their lexus brand, people took them as a joke? But mercede's, bmw, and a few others didnt laugh once they realized that lexus built a better car then anticipated...benz had to go back to the drawing board, now a few years later, everyone wants a lexus....so why is it so different if hyundai does it? Should they have made a whole new brand to gain acceptance? This, is a great car...and the hyundai brand is on a rise..
O.o that's what i said. Actually i would've preferred that they made a new brand....but then again it doesn't bother me. It all just goes down to the following question "what are you buying? a car to show off at the boulevard or a car to really drive in...?....posers can't show off in a hyundai so they complain about the brand, but drivers should enjoy a good car regardless of make.
I mean, thats a serious issue, lots of cars arent taken serious, because of the company that build or built them, some people still consider the ferrari killing Ford GT a joke, why? because its a ford. But they werent saying that when ford owned Aston martin, Jaguar, and Land rover. I love this car, im just hoping sooner or later, people will accept the car for what it is, its a great car, and i want one. People act like companies cant get better, and build better product. ITs not really fair.
Heh it always has and always will be like that, not just with cars. People are superficial,they buy brands primarily (most do at least). They buy the "best" purebred sportscars but don't know what engineering went into it or how to use the technology, but they can brag about it.Take feraris for example,most will never see a race track or be driven much,just a thing you show off at the local starbucks.
Hehehe check the story behind the first gt40 and le mans, they weren't a joke to mr. ferrari
Btw the it's pretty damn sweet seeing automakers re entering the rwd coupe segment, hopefully nissan will revive the s series and toyota will make a fun car after so long.
About ferrari, during the 60's ford tried to buy ferrari, enzo declined and mr. ford got angry, so he told the engineers to build him a supercar, so the gt40 was born and won le mans multiple times over the ferraris, i love telling that to ferrari fans they stop arguing after that.
Hyundai and Kia are the same company. In Korea, Hyundai is known as the luxury/upscale division while Kia is known more for their affordable high volume cars. I believe they're trying to change their image in the US to make that distinction more clear.
Hyundai and Kia are NOT the same company. Kia was created by the founder of Hyundai's younger brother. The vehicles Hyundai is pumping out nowadays are actually very impressive.
Yes, Hyundai & Kia are the same company. Hyundai bought a 51% majority share of Kia in 1998 and since then they have developed vehicles that share the same platform for both brands. The official name of the corporation is "현대-기아 자동차 그룹" or "Hyundai Kia Automotive Group". My girl friend and I lived in Seoul for 4 years, believe me, we know.
You are the idiot my friend. He didn't say anything about American Cars and he didn't say Hyundai were crap cars. He simply stated that he would opt for a Japanese car that had more MOTORSPORTS history, which until more recently Hyundai had very little to none of. You need to stop acting like a fucking prick, you fucking prick. And I highly doubt the Genesis would "kill any American Crap car." Examples: Viper, GT 500, Corvette, Camaro, CTS-V, Charger, GTO. Be open minded asshole, not ignorant.
Incredible driving, incredibly well set up vehicle, incredible shots, incredible composition... Overall, I dare say I'm proud of Hyundai. They've done a great job designing/building/promoting their newest creation.
Expect big things from the Genesis going forward. It WILL be the next big tuner car.
