Off-Road Truck vs Dirt Bike: Who wins?
The competition kicks off with a classic drag race. Both competitors banter about their machines’ strengths and weaknesses—Seth’s Dakar car weighs in at two and a half tons, while Carson’s bike is feather-light by comparison. Despite the weight difference, the car’s raw power is undeniable. The first run is close, but the bike edges out a win. Not to be outdone, Seth asks for a rematch, and the car claws back a victory. It all comes down to a third and final showdown, with both pushing their machines to the limit.
Next up is a braking challenge, where both vehicles accelerate to 100 km/h before slamming on the brakes. The car’s four wheels and bigger brakes give it an advantage in stopping power, but the bike’s lightness keeps things interesting. The friendly rivalry continues, with both riders trading jabs and celebrating each other’s skills.
The final test is a hot lap around a custom Erzbergrodeo course. The route includes tight turns, a giant Red Bull can, dirt piles, a steep climb, and a fast terrace section. After a quick game of rock-paper-scissors, Carson takes the first run on the bike, showing off his ability to leap up hills and carve through technical sections. Seth follows in the Dakar car, powering through the course with impressive speed and control.
In the end, it’s a close contest. The bike posts a lap time of 1:39.80, while the car finishes just behind at 1:41.5. Both competitors reflect on the strengths and challenges of their machines—where the bike excels in agility and jumping, the car dominates in straight-line speed and braking.
The video is packed with good-natured competition, plenty of laughs, and a genuine appreciation for the unique capabilities of both vehicles. It’s a celebration of motorsport in its purest form—pushing boundaries, having fun, and finding out just how far you can go, whether on two wheels or four.
