4 wheels versus two: The everlasting competitors.
Properly, possibly it is extra of a contest for us bikers than it’s for automotive homeowners, as a result of beating supercars on a superbike, whether or not it is in a straight line or round some curves with one thing that prices a thirtieth of the value, is so bloody satisfying. Solely, swap “supercar” for a Toyota GR DKR Hilux T1+ rally truck and “superbike” for a KTM 300XC-W, and also you get what this video is about.
The competitors between these two off-road monsters passed off at Erzberg, with the truck pushed by Dakar driver, Seth Quintero, and the bike piloted by all-around 2-wheel legend Carson Brown.
Earlier than we get into the main points of the competitors, please word the price of the equipment. A brand new or evenly used T1+ car might run you wherever from $500,000 to $800,000, whereas Brown’s KTM has a retail value of $11,599. Now, positive, Brown has some further trick elements for competing on the Erzbergrodeo, but it surely will not be an entire lot, and that is significantly true for the engine.
Realistically, you possibly can simply have 50 of Brown’s KTM for the price of Quintero’s Toyota GR DKR Hilux T1+.
The competitors consisted of three elements: a drag race, a braking take a look at, and a time assault. Now, please, earlier than watching the video, inform us within the feedback what car you suppose received what half, and benefit from the video under.
All proper, by now you understand the bike took the drag race however I will maintain my fingers up and say I didn’t count on it to take the time assault. Hats off to Brown as a result of, though he is an authorized ripper, this is not his pure racing atmosphere. But when there’s one factor Brown does not need to show to anybody ever once more, is he’ll race anybody, on something, wherever.
