1056HP VW Golf Mk1 Sleeper vs 182HP Yamaha R1 1

Don`t let the look of the first generation VW Golf fool you! There is a MASSIVE MACHINE hiding underneath the hood! It “eats” everything in front of it! Today, on its menu, there is a YAMAHA R1 -- a quality motorbike which didn`t stand a chance in this street race. You are about to see why. The VW Golf MK1 Turbo is a car made to be both on the street and on the track! It has 4 motion AWD and 02M 6 speed gearbox. The engine is 2.0 litter 16V Turbo delivering 1056 horses and 1001 Nm of torque. The battle between 1056HP VW Golf Mk1 Sleeper and 182HP Yamaha R1 is something you don’t want to miss.

With that, the top speed is around 186 mph. It is evident that these guys have put money and effort in building this car. Moreover, the turbo is Garrett GTX4202R giving 3.4 bar (49 psi) of boost. Also it has tires from the Japanese manufacturer Toyo and some fancy exhaust and fuel system.



On the other hand, the YAMAHA has only 182 HP, which is practically nothing compared to the GOLF. After the thorough introduction it is time to go on the street! One more thing, pay attention to the GOLF`s acceleration!
