Volkswagen in the Middle East has pitted the Golf GTI Clubsport against a falcon in a race taking place in the desert. No, we’re not sure exactly why, either.
Still, the resulting video (fittingly called The Chase) makes for fairly entertaining viewing, with the bird screeching after the hot hatch thanks to the bait tied to the vehicle’s prominent rear spoiler.
For the record, the Clubsport makes 195 kW, with an overboost function adding nearly 10% (up to 213 kW). During this ten-second overboost period, peak torque rises from 350 N.m to 380 N.m. And the falcon? Well, it’s pretty quick, too…
