Drag times is here everybody.
Drag times is here.
Where's he at?
Let's go.
This is going to be the Bugatti race
versus Brooks and the Speedtail.
Hey!
What is he nervous?
Oh my, I think the Speedtail's got it.
I don't think he knew.
He didn't know.
I was trying to tap your leg.
You had no idea.
I didn't even realize.
I didn't say that.
I want to go for the win.
I was doing an Instagram story.
Dude, I love that he was doing an Instagram story.
We gonna have fun racing today?
Yeah.
These two, everybody's been asking
about the Speedtail and the Chiron.
Do you think this is the most requested race?
Second most.
I know what you're going to say,
but we can't do the first most.
I know.
But we haven't told the audience why either.
We haven't, but first is obviously
Koenigsegg versus Bugatti.
Everybody wants to see that.
But unfortunately, the Koenigsegg can't.
Well, you know what?
Wait for the Jesko versus the Supersport.
That'll be really good.
So we're excited to get this out, to test these today.
I think we're going to be able
to actually get some real solid races.
Let's go.
I'm super excited to drive this.
Can I drive this first?
No.
Bryce is going to take you guys along in the Bugatti.
So, and I, you know, I get, I get the job today.
I get to drive the van.
You chose, you chose.
Bryce said, can I please drive the Bugatti?
And look, I'm not going to take that away from Bryce.
Liar, liar, liar.
Okay, in all honesty,
I love watching the cars go down the road
as much as I like driving them.
Like being around the cars on a road
and just seeing these two together
is almost as satisfying to me as driving them.
It's a car guy thing.
It is.
It's just like, I just love watching them
like go down the road.
So I'm perfectly happy in the van.
The match up between these two, so nice.
Well, on paper, this is faster.
It's just how good can you get the launch?
That's right.
On paper to reality.
Can we make that realization
or is that thing just going to launch out of the hole
and you just can't catch it?
I think if we were to do half mile,
I think that would win easily.
For sure.
50% is launch when you're talking quarter mile.
I think that's going to win.
That's my personal guess for today.
I think it's going to be close
once we can get that launch down really good.
It just depends on how well this launches.
We've never launched this.
Correct.
So I'm excited to figure it out and try it.
Go.
How did it feel, sir?
It felt really good.
Forgot how fun that car is to drive.
I'm excited to see what it does on the track.
So did Jordan tell you that SF90 was coming?
Well, in the chat, I buzzed Frank.
I'm like, hey, if you're up here, why don't you come out?
He's like, uh, okay.
What's going on?
I missed you.
I'm excited to have you guys here.
I'm excited to be here.
Yeah, this is going to be so cool.
Yeah, we were learning yesterday.
We had trouble getting good launches at the same time.
That was the hardest part.
Were you doing arm drops?
Yes.
Okay.
Now, but like-
That's easier than timing a light.
Is it?
You want to time a light against Jimmy and I,
it's going to be a disaster.
So usually what we do is we point at one person, right?
They get their launch ready,
point at the other person, and right away, bam.
And then whoever's doing it,
give it like some cars need a little-
Right.
A little bit more boost.
We've never launched it, no.
I mean, like on the road, this thing,
like I was afraid this thing was on a regular street,
launching it with a new type of-
Oh, this thing will kick out like nothing.
You have it in race mode right now.
Well, so it's not in race mode.
This is actually normal.
That's normal?
Drop it like that?
Okay.
With a wing up like that?
So it's race mode two with the wing up.
Oh, you got race mode two.
That's what it is.
So what kind of format and thing
are you thinking you want to do today?
Honestly, whatever you want to do.
We're here, I mean, you guys wanted to come,
so whatever format you guys want.
We're inexperienced with all this,
so we're hoping you could help us set this up right.
So have a little bit of patience with us.
No!
Yeah, you got to show us the ropes.
Oh, it's all Nicky.
You had to come show us up, didn't you?
Get the f*** out of here
so we can see that sexy body of yours.
Hey, did you bring the screens?
Yeah, they're actually, you know, they're behind me.
Are they in the back?
They're modular.
You coming to install the screens today?
I am right now, actually.
They're modular.
Is that ladder still up here?
I may have lost it 140.
That's a nice beetle.
Yeah, that carbon roof is sweet.
Is this the new one?
This is the new one.
The new GT3 RS?
This is the GT3 RS.
This is the new GT3 RS?
We will.
Rock one.
Yay!
Finally, finally.
Now that I see his face,
I want to beat the s*** out of somebody.
You guys look cute in there, right?
This is so cute.
It's lovely.
It's weird, right?
It's so weird.
Dude, if you go put the arm over here,
like, where do I put this arm?
There's no great place to put it.
Yeah, like that.
That's about the only thing you can do.
Did they say do it in velocity mode or no?
Not the first time.
I'm just going to take it easy.
Okay.
Just drive it down.
I just want to see the length of it.
Yeah, get a good feel for it?
Yeah.
I'm just going to drive down there with Jimmy
and just look at it.
Let's do this, baby!
World's first Speedtail versus Bugatti Chiron.
Quarter mile.
Run number one.
The Speedtail technically should do better,
but it's having a lot of trouble hooking up.
We're going to go active.
I'm not going to go in velocity mode right now
because that turns off all traction control.
And I don't want to,
I don't feel like putting a $4 million car
off the road today.
Okay.
So he's cleaning off his tires now.
All right.
I got to do a little bit of a burnout here.
I'm going to wait a sec.
Keep as much heat,
even though this doesn't really spin that much.
Oh, he's doing two?
God, it's hot in here with no air conditioning.
I'm doing two then.
Launch control, sport.
Okay.
Launch control again.
Didn't launch very well.
I don't know what happened.
Sometimes it doesn't launch.
Failure to launch.
All right.
So launch control on the Speedtail.
Brake in just like any other one.
Accelerator down.
Okay.
I'm rolling out the launch.
Let's go.
Reminder, race number one,
Speedtail versus Bugatti.
I'm having trouble with the launch.
I got to try it again.
I don't think I have to rev it longer.
It's in sport.
Launch control says launch ready.
John's over at his Mustang.
I still haven't gotten a good launch on this,
but I'm going to just try it in here.
I can't launch.
Are you in sport?
Yep, sport.
And it says launch ready,
but it's just not doing it.
I thought I just needed to rev it like longer.
Speedtail versus Bugatti.
Let's do it.
Race number two.
Passing the Bugatti.
He's had a little bit of problems
with his launch control.
All right, Jay.
Yeah.
Try to get some more launches here.
The most in the beginning,
squirreling around a little bit.
Weird with this launch versus Speedtail.
You wait too long, it doesn't launch at all.
Was that a bad launch for you?
Oh yeah, it cut power.
It bogged down at the very beginning.
10.39 at 142.
So I was 10 miles per hour down,
which is gigantic.
God, it's hot in here, fellas.
Get that smoke rolling.
Nope, not much there.
Let's see, try it again.
Nope, it's not doing it again.
You having trouble?
It's kind of acting funny in here.
You want me to hop in there?
I'm going to try to shut it down real quick.
What's the deal, Jay?
I can't get it to launch at all.
I'm going to be mad if he does it on the first time.
I had it launching great before.
All right, so,
so if you look at your stuff here,
everything's flashing at me.
Yeah, it was.
So in starting in second gear, that's the problem.
It's not letting you go in first.
See, it would after I turned it off
and it went back to first.
Did it?
Yeah, turn it off right now.
All right.
Even park was flashing.
Yeah, everything's flashing.
I bet you it's too hot.
It just doesn't want to do it.
I don't think we should push it.
I'm smelling some weird too.
It smells like something's burning.
You think it's possible it's had too much?
It was acting weird though.
It was like when I put it in parking,
it was blinking the P and it never blinks like that.
Let's just be sick of it.
It's tired of launching.
Well, today was really good for testing purposes.
Jason got a lot more comfortable.
I learned a lot.
That was the second day I've ever done it.
I was a little bit nervous about the Bugatti.
It's got so much power, but gosh, it was so easy.
So we're really excited.
We're getting ready for Brooks and drag times to come.
Oh wait, hold on one second.
I got to make a call.
You're fine.
Who is that calling?
Answer it and see who it is.
Hello?
Jordan?
Hey, yeah, it's me.
Hey, it's me, Jason.
Hey, what are you doing?
I'm calling you from the new triple F phone.
We have a triple F phone?
We do.
I figured it's a good way for a little interaction.
People can text us, give us a little advice.
I love that.
So yeah, so instead of maybe some DMs on Instagram,
when we run some contests,
we can give them this phone number
and this will go directly to us.
You can text, you can call, you can leave voicemails.
You can really do anything you want
as disgusting or nice as possible.
We might just not look at everything.
Well, if you want to tell us you hate us,
at least tell us why you hate us.
Yeah.
Right?
Yep.
So dial that number to get ahold of us.
Text, give us a phone call,
give us anything you want, really.
It's free.
It's open for you guys to use.
Don't send nudes.
The megaphone.
Drag times is here, everybody.
Drag times is here.
He's gonna.
In a good way.
You ready for this, baby?
Mm-hmm.
Hey, I'm gonna kick this guy's ass.
Where's he at?
Let's go.
This is gonna be the Bugatti race
versus Brooks and the Speedtail.
Hey!
What, is he nervous?
Oh my, I think the Speedtail's got it!
Oh, Bryce.
All right, he passed by me.
I don't think I jumped too much.
She-Ra got it.
Wait, wait, wait, don't roll down the window.
You gotta tell me this stuff.
That's how many we have on order, or total.
That's true, I love it.
Bugatti, Bugatti, Bugatti.
You might have to add another Bugatti there so that's it.
Maybe.
Maybe about a full car length.
Wow.
What do you want, G?
Dang.
That's impressive from down here,
it doesn't seem that way.
We're gonna do one more.
You know what?
I would like to switch and see.
Well, he wants to do one more right now.
Try to launch?
Wanna try it?
Yeah, let me know when you're ready.
Hold on.
You ready?
I'll honk three.
All right, hold on.
Okay.
I ate that thing up from a launch.
Did you actually spin a little bit
when you launched this time?
A little bit, man, I killed it.
Excellent, go sniff your clutch,
make sure it's not smoking.
Dude, I launched it, dude,
I ate that thing up though from a launch,
like, I ate it.
The launch was okay back there, though.
Yeah, it launched fine.
I mean, I thought it was pretty even.
You thought it was pretty good?
On this last one, though,
it put me in the second right before I could launch it.
So you got the small,
because that second one that I did was perfect.
I had you, I was in front of you the whole way
on the second one.
I drove that car and I dropped in this.
That thing makes you go, hmm.
It does.
And you're going like one,
you got to be going 175
when you let off down there, right?
I was high 160s.
High 160s?
Because I let off at like 168.
Here, I have a little challenge, though, for you.
Okay.
Let's switch cars.
Yeah?
And let's see who wins.
Okay.
Can we do that?
Sure.
Okay.
All right, guys, we changed cars.
I'm going in the Speedtail.
This car is just insane.
This thing's slower, too.
It only has 10% battery power.
And for this, it's weird.
It's supposed to be over 90% battery
to get maximum performance.
Okay.
What are you doing, man?
All right, did you turn off traction control?
Traction control off.
Okay, cool.
You're rocking.
