Engine noises come through the Honda's speakers, but the argument over traffic cones is entirely real: should clipping one cost a second?
Marty and Moog have brought the Honda Super-One and BYD Atto 1 Premium to Sydney Dragway for a Mighty Car Mods comparison that mixes cabin inspections with acceleration, braking and some closely contested maneuvering. The upload reached roughly 125,000 views in ten hours, an unusually fast start for the channel's regular videos.
Small Japanese cars are familiar territory for this pair. Here, though, the Honda's character comes partly from simulated engine sounds and paddle shifters rather than an engine under the hood. They inspect the seats, controls and wide body kit before finding out how the little electric hatch handles a course.
The BYD makes a stronger case once the racing starts. A disputed standing-start result leads to a rerun on a longer stretch, while the slalom produces a gap small enough to make that cone-penalty discussion matter. The final motorkhana asks the cars to do rather more than accelerate in a straight line.
These are borrowed cars, not paid endorsements: Honda supplied the Super-One, and owners Ryan and Liesl lent the BYD. Moog explicitly says nobody paid them to say anything.
Meanwhile, viewers have found another Honda to discuss. Several comments point to an NSX passing in the background near the end, with some wishing the camera had followed it instead.

Love the non-chalant NSX driving behind them at the end
@stephenmaggard1280See it on YouTubeIn autocross they circle the cone with chalk and if you knock the cone out of the chalk circle you add time to the run. So you can touch a cone as long as it doesn't move much.
