what kind of a starting signal was that?
the time difference at the end looked about the same as human reaction time from a lame starting signal.

how do we know the guy was driving the ferrari flat out?

well... we know this WASN'T a test because this is a damn commercial, with shit typography, and i am in no mood to hold back my downvote fury.

Commercial, eh? I'll smack it into the viral channel then. The multiple camera angles and the suspicious start signal did make me go "hmmm"... but it was sufficiently amusing to sift.

well the enormous web address advertising turbo karts was a bit of a giveaway, no?

I've clearly become too jaded by URLs to notice them for what they may be. Thanks for the heads-up though.

Yeah, they don't really even show how long the "race" was. I'd expect the kart to have better acceleration since it's pushing (I'm guessing) like 1/5 the weight that the Ferrari has to push. Guessing again, the Ferrari could have something like 3x the horsepower of the kart. I've no doubt that the Ferrari has a higher top speed, though.

it's all about power:weight. I've actually never seen the performance and weight specs of a 360 before. I'm actually really not all that impressed.

Isn't this more about the gearbox. I assume the kart has no gearbox, while the Ferrari is held back by the one it has.

This would be similar in a race like a Ferrari vs. a Tesla Roadster.
