**Specialist Timing Gear Reveals Blowing Results**

The specialist timing gear has revealed some astonishing results that are sure to blow your mind. With the timing data, it's clear that the Volkswagen Golf won the standing quarter mile with an incredible 12.3 seconds, leaving all other cars in its dust. The Audi ID was a close second with 12.8 seconds, while the BMW was third with a time of 12.9 seconds. Meanwhile, the Mercedes-AMG was last with a disappointing 13.7 seconds.

**The NG's Disappointing Performance**

Despite having a great start, the Nissan GT-R (NG) would still have come in last even with its best performance. The timing data shows that the NG took 13.4 seconds to complete the quarter mile, which is a far cry from the other cars on the track.

**Rolling Race from 50 Miles per Hour**

The next test was a rolling race from 50 miles per hour, with all cars in their comfiest settings and automatic gearboxes in normal drive mode. The cars were released at the same time, and it quickly became apparent that they were not exactly racing for the ages. In fact, the BMW said that the start was "forever" slow, while Mercedes noted that it took what felt like a week to kick down into gear.

**Manual Mode Test**

The next test was held in manual mode, with all cars locked into third gear. The Audi started strong, but its pickup was almost non-existent until it reached full throttle. Meanwhile, the BMW kicked down quickly and easily, allowing it to catch up to the Mercedes-AMG. In the end, it was a close call between the two, but the Audi emerged victorious.

**Full Emergency Stop Test**

The final test was held from 70 miles per hour, with all cars taking full emergency stops as soon as they reached the line. The Mercedes-AMG won this test hands down, with its brakes coming in strong and confident. Meanwhile, the BMW struggled to slow down quickly enough, while the Audi took a slightly more cautious approach.

**The Verdict**

In the end, it was clear that the Mercedes-AMG had emerged victorious from each of the tests. Despite its heavier curb weight, the car's braking performance and handling made all the difference. The BMW was a close second in several tests, while the Audi took the win in the manual mode test. Meanwhile, the Nissan GT-R (NG) struggled to keep up with the rest of the pack.

converter mercedes were you in the race it wasn't the best it launches okay but it's just not as fast as the other certainly not as fast as golf this is like otherworldly in fact you know what i have specialist timing gear here i've got the results on it they're going to blow you away so then what exactly happened well the volkswagen won completing the standing quarter mile in an incredible 12.3 seconds the id was second with 12.8 seconds the bmw was third with a time of 12.9 seconds and the amg was last taking 13.7 seconds to do the quarter mile due to a bad start to be fair though the ng would still have come last anyway even with a great start as the best time we've ever had out of an a35 it's 13.4 seconds okay now we're gonna have a rolling race from 50 miles an hour with the cars in their comfiest settings and their automatic gearboxes in normal drive just chilling right i'll call this in three two one go come on kick down that took forever to kick down the bmw was off that mercedes is napping again here comes the vw golf though can i compass the audi bye-bye everybody definitely more than 320 horsepower gearbox on this was a little bit coming all right i'll change down now i don't need to hurry because i'm quicker than the others and then the others took off then this just caught up i went by hmm i bet you're feeling a bit smug at first bmw i really was i felt great and i was even beating the s3 but i was so taken aback by how well i was doing i forgot that you were in the race you absolutely destroyed me and it was quite close between me and us three wasn't it but in the end uh my superior driving skills which is what it was down to you know i held the wheel very straight and i kept my right foot firmly on the floor that saw me through yeah it looked like we all had a really slow kick down and then it looked like mine was just a little bit ahead of yours and i thought this is good and i started pulling past the beam i thought i'm gonna get a win here and then again just your little happy face pulling down the road away from us devastating and what happened in the mark yeah it just took what felt like a week to kick down and by the time it had you guys were just gone oh dear paul mercedes now we're going to do the same thing again this time though we're in our sporty settings and we're going to be in manual mode locked in third gear and i call it in three two one go oh the pick up on this is pretty intense i don't even have to change up it does it automatically that odd he really picked up come on is there enough runway to catch him is there enough runway come on come on yeah i've come past holding the brakes now blimey i'm really enjoying today for some reason i i can't think why howdy that was so close but i came past in the end
