In the heart of the United Kingdom, the Hoonigan crew embarked on an epic showdown known as Versus That UK, featuring a fierce battle between a mighty BMW and a formidable Honda Integra at Santa Pod Raceway. Both cars boasting a staggering 1,000 horsepower and all-wheel drive capabilities, the stage was set for a clash of automotive titans. The Honda, a turbocharged DC5 Type R with a sequential gearbox and a swapped AWD system, showcased its power, pushing over 1,000 horsepower at the crank from its K20 engine running on E112 fuel.

On the other hand, the BMW M3, a daily driver turned high-performance beast, revealed its 1,000 horsepower capabilities, thanks to a built motor and hybrid turbos tuned by the skilled hands of Tom Wrigley. With EBC discs, pads, and Michelin tires ensuring optimal performance, the BMW was a force to be reckoned with on the track. The race unfolded with intense competition, showcasing the raw power and precision engineering of both vehicles.

As the races progressed, the Honda faced challenges with coolant pressure issues, threatening to derail its performance. However, after some adjustments and a display of true sportsmanship, the final showdown between the BMW and Honda culminated in a thrilling and closely contested race. Despite the Honda's faster time, the BMW emerged victorious, showcasing superior reaction time and securing a hard-fought win. The Hoonigan team celebrated the spirit of competition and camaraderie, highlighting the adrenaline-fueled excitement of high-stakes drag racing.
