“On the floor, a Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo and a Monster Jam truck appear to not have an amazing deal in frequent.” More true phrases have been by no means strung collectively, and that was how Porsche opened the second paragraph of the announcement accompanying this, ahem, unconventional video spectacle. However hey, it is four-wheel-drive automobiles taking part in within the filth, proper? It might not make sense, however that does not imply it is boring.
There is not any race right here, neither is there any kind of battle. It is simply two proficient drivers having a little bit of enjoyable on the Monster Jam course at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. On the wheel of the Monster Jam rig is veteran driver Linsey Learn; piloting the Taycan is veteran Porsche hotshoe Leh Eager. Predictably, neither spends a lot time going through ahead as the 2 proceed to tear up the course of their respective chariots.
It is foolish to check the 2, however so is all the pieces else about this, so why not? The Taycan’s electrical motors produce 750 horsepower and 774 pound-feet of torque; the Monster Truck’s supercharged 9.2-liter V8 makes a whopping 1,500 horses and 1,200 lb-ft. However for those who assume the Porsche’s a porker at just below 5,200 kilos, it is a featherweight by comparability; the truck checks in at 12,000 kilos. Monster Jam boasts that its vans can catch 60 ft of air, however we’re assured the Porsche might pull that off. As soon as.
Benefit from the antics. Joyful Monday.
