For your convenience, the answer is "yes", and this is the timestamp where you can see them race: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAO1i9Z9GpQ&t=162s

As always, the good stuff starts 1/3 of the way through any given video (:

I remember someone stating that "rule" at one point, but not sure if there's an official name for it.



As others have said, the Wadworth Constant. You used to be able to add &wadsworth=1 to any youtube url and it would automatically skip ahead. They got rid of it at some point though.


If you find yourself constantly searching for highlights, I highly recommend the SponsorBlock extension (https://sponsor.ajay.app/), which crowdsources this job effectively (as well as targeting sponsored regions, credits, etc.)

Using the extension I could hit "return" to jump to results at 5:28.


You can press 3 on the keyboard to skip 30% of the way in, it's a reasonable approximation.


That's a pretty slow bullet (I'm assuming it's a spicy 9mm). It should be possible to load rifle cartridges that are fast enough to make the race interesting.


I'd try the Weatherby .220 Swift but I think it'd still lose to the glass. The 120mm smoothbore main gun on the M-1 Abrams tank fires a depleted-uranium penetrator rod that can get near 6000 ft/sec. That'd win.


There's a link in the video to one where they compare different projectile speeds - up to, iirc, a 50cal


Wadsworth Constant, I believe.


i know what you mean about "good stuff", but i did really enjoy the full commentary on this one. you have to give the narrative a chance and you can choose to skip right ahead if you want to without so much of an effort.


The Wadsworth Constant.
