New Golf 8.5 GTI vs GR Corolla Drag Race! Standing + Rolling Race

In this video, Ciro de Siena and David Taylor race the latest iteration of the Volkswagen Golf GTI and the brand-new Toyota GR Corolla down the main straight at Killarney Raceway in the Western Cape. With its power advantage and all-wheel drive, the GR Corolla should dispatch the Golf GTI quite easily, but history has shown Wolfsburg knows a thing or two about straight-line sprints. Because the weather caused the track to be wet, the Golf struggled. To ensure fairness, there is also an in-gear rolling race starting from 30 kph.
