Episode Title :
"Motown Funk"
3
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,000
Hello, everybody!
Thank you.
4
00:01:04,235 --> 00:01:06,047
Thank you very much.
5
00:01:06,764 --> 00:01:09,797
Greetings, everybody.
Thank you so much.
6
00:01:13,708 --> 00:01:15,860
Thanks, everybody.
Thank you.
7
00:01:16,766 --> 00:01:19,399
Thank you so much.
And, yes!
8
00:01:20,274 --> 00:01:22,688
We're back!
9
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,200
We are!
10
00:01:24,415 --> 00:01:26,720
Now, a lot of people
have been saying,
11
00:01:26,798 --> 00:01:30,016
"Why has it taken so long?
What have you been doing?"
12
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,352
Well, hopefully we can answer
that with this short montage
13
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:39,774
of what you can expect over
the next... ahem... 13 weeks.
14

Aargh!
40
00:02:54,285 --> 00:02:57,645
There must've been 30 or 40 people
in the room when the police arrived.
41
00:02:58,184 --> 00:02:59,770
Whoa!
42
00:02:59,863 --> 00:03:01,973
Clarkson!
43
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,489
Jesus Christ,
I'm too close to the edge.
44
00:03:04,630 --> 00:03:05,790
Oh!
45
00:03:09,963 --> 00:03:11,895
- Let's sing a song.
- No.
46
00:03:13,843 --> 00:03:17,215
I am sitting
where Jim Clark sat!
47
00:03:18,372 --> 00:03:20,677

00:03:23,652 --> 00:03:25,757

- OK, flee.
49
00:03:27,212 --> 00:03:29,637
Well, he'll be using
a pistol, won't he?

00:03:32,012 --> 00:03:34,437
♪ Do the Strand ♪
51
00:03:40,033 --> 00:03:41,215
I think...
52
00:03:42,549 --> 00:03:44,084
I think you're gonna
like this series.
53
00:03:44,162 --> 00:03:47,520
And I particularly think you're
going to like how it begins.
54
00:03:47,598 --> 00:03:50,307
Because even over here,
on this side of the pond,
55
00:03:50,389 --> 00:03:55,083
we recognise that Detroit
is the spiritual home
56
00:03:55,161 --> 00:03:57,762
to anyone whose
communion wine is petrol
57
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,231
and whose heart beats
like a big, lumpy, wet V8.
58
00:04:02,379 --> 00:04:05,911
Which is why this week,
and it's long overdue,
59
00:04:05,989 --> 00:04:09,227
The Grand Tour
is off to the Motor City...
60
00:04:09,403 --> 00:04:11,557
with an idea.
61
00:04:39,563 --> 00:04:42,879
Of course, the whole
world knows that Detroit
62
00:04:43,036 --> 00:04:46,037
is now a shadow
of its former self.
63
00:04:47,012 --> 00:04:49,947
But we also know
that efforts are being made
64
00:04:50,029 --> 00:04:52,668
to bring life
back to the ruins...
65
00:04:53,175 --> 00:04:55,600
with urban farms.
66
00:04:57,472 --> 00:05:00,614
Local people are being
encouraged to grow...
67
00:05:00,700 --> 00:05:04,895
kale and beans and seeds,
68
00:05:05,050 --> 00:05:09,981
in plots like this where houses
and businesses once stood.
69
00:05:12,331 --> 00:05:14,066
It breaks your heart.
70
00:05:14,433 --> 00:05:16,528
I mean, this is Detroit.
71
00:05:16,606 --> 00:05:21,051
It shouldn't be a help-yourself,
pop-up street allotment
72
00:05:21,129 --> 00:05:24,059
for organic
vegan peace hippies,
73
00:05:24,137 --> 00:05:29,903
when it could be a pulsating
playground for the petrolhead.
74
00:05:31,590 --> 00:05:35,148
It has the roads,
it has the space,
75
00:05:35,419 --> 00:05:37,801
it was built by
the rumble of a V8
76
00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:41,661
and it should rumble
to that sound once more.
77
00:05:44,575 --> 00:05:46,640
So that's what
we've come here to do...
78
00:05:48,387 --> 00:05:49,661
make some noise.
79
00:06:23,707 --> 00:06:26,575
These are the toys
we'll be using.
80
00:06:26,833 --> 00:06:28,934
Three American muscle cars,
81
00:06:29,012 --> 00:06:34,489
all of which have been tuned to
a tyre-shredding DEFCON one.
82
00:06:38,735 --> 00:06:43,372
I have the Ford Mustang
RTR Spec 3.
83
00:06:45,855 --> 00:06:50,320
Mr Slowly has
what's called The Exorcist.
84
00:06:53,422 --> 00:06:56,699
And in his whining Dodge
Challenger Demon...
85
00:06:59,604 --> 00:07:02,254
Hammond has an erection.
86
00:07:05,535 --> 00:07:07,778
Ah-ha-ha!
87
00:07:11,806 --> 00:07:13,880
To make this,
they took a Hellcat -
88
00:07:13,958 --> 00:07:15,559
I drove one before
on the show -
89
00:07:15,668 --> 00:07:17,497
and just made it "more".
90
00:07:17,575 --> 00:07:19,514
More of everything.
91
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:22,747
I have 840 horsepower,
92
00:07:22,855 --> 00:07:24,840
a massive supercharger...
93
00:07:27,215 --> 00:07:29,317
and on the bonnet there,
or hood,
94
00:07:29,395 --> 00:07:32,528
that's the biggest hood scoop
ever fitted to a production car.
95
00:07:32,606 --> 00:07:33,613
Ever.
96
00:07:37,615 --> 00:07:39,830
Yeah!
97
00:07:39,912 --> 00:07:41,175
Noise!
98
00:07:42,735 --> 00:07:44,074
Noise in the city!
99
00:07:58,872 --> 00:08:01,254
Bloody hellfire!
100
00:08:01,989 --> 00:08:04,004
This car is tuned
by Hennessey.
101
00:08:04,082 --> 00:08:06,184
They've taken
a standard Camaro
102
00:08:06,262 --> 00:08:08,154
and they've given it
1,000 horsepower.
103
00:08:13,949 --> 00:08:16,348
Jesus Christ!
104
00:08:18,055 --> 00:08:20,785
They haven't touched anything
else, only the engine.
105
00:08:20,863 --> 00:08:22,621
Wheels are standard,
brakes are standard,
106
00:08:22,699 --> 00:08:24,731
suspension is standard,
bodywork is standard.
107
00:08:24,809 --> 00:08:26,697
It's all standard.
108
00:08:26,962 --> 00:08:29,559
Except the power.
109
00:08:34,634 --> 00:08:37,520
Jeez,
I can't even steer it.
110
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,277
It's-It's idiotic, honestly.
111
00:08:43,755 --> 00:08:46,246
And yea, though
I walk in the shadow
112
00:08:46,324 --> 00:08:49,449
of the valley of death,
I will fear no evil.
113
00:08:50,028 --> 00:08:52,809
Because I am The Exorcist!
114
00:09:07,012 --> 00:09:10,465
This may look
small and delicate
115
00:09:10,543 --> 00:09:13,413
compared to the other two,
but be in no doubt,
116
00:09:13,592 --> 00:09:16,270
it has the muscle car
credentials.
117
00:09:16,700 --> 00:09:17,931
Oh, yeah.
118
00:09:21,095 --> 00:09:25,262
The fact is that the engine
in Hammond's car...
119
00:09:25,434 --> 00:09:29,902
is a push rod, two valve,
iron museum piece.
120
00:09:30,051 --> 00:09:33,660
And May's car, yes,
it has 1,000 horsepower,
121
00:09:33,738 --> 00:09:37,426
but it's running
on standard brakes.
122
00:09:38,015 --> 00:09:41,066
This... This is just
a little bit cleverer.
123
00:09:41,215 --> 00:09:45,699
They haven't just put a supercharger
on it and left it at that.
124
00:09:45,934 --> 00:09:48,488
They've stiffened up the
suspension and lowered it
125
00:09:48,566 --> 00:09:50,840
and stiffened
the anti-roll bars.
126
00:09:51,135 --> 00:09:54,426
So it can do this.
127
00:09:57,074 --> 00:09:59,419
Jesus H Christ!
128
00:10:01,535 --> 00:10:03,600
And it can do this.
129
00:10:04,415 --> 00:10:07,333
Yes!
130
00:10:07,415 --> 00:10:12,730
This, then, is the Anthony
Joshua of muscle cars.
131
00:10:12,941 --> 00:10:16,510
Big and brawny,
but it has brains as well.
132
00:10:18,806 --> 00:10:21,103
Then there's its name.
133
00:10:21,236 --> 00:10:23,494
It's the RTR,
which stands for,
134
00:10:23,572 --> 00:10:26,384
and I'm not making this up,
Ready to Rock!
135
00:10:31,655 --> 00:10:33,853
These three cars, then,
136
00:10:33,931 --> 00:10:36,470
they're the perfect
fairground rides
137
00:10:36,650 --> 00:10:40,267
in our perfect
petrolhead theme park.
138
00:10:41,242 --> 00:10:43,275
I mean, people
travel all the way to Florida
139
00:10:43,353 --> 00:10:44,861
to look at a man
in a mouse suit
140
00:10:44,939 --> 00:10:48,350
and watch an implausible train
have an unrealistic crash.
141
00:10:48,494 --> 00:10:51,600
Why not come here in your car
and do this?
142
00:10:57,175 --> 00:10:58,994
Whoo!
143
00:10:59,411 --> 00:11:01,916
What a day!
144
00:11:10,175 --> 00:11:14,767
I just can't get over James
May is The Ex-cre-cist
145
00:11:16,735 --> 00:11:20,670
I am surprised to see you two
so upbeat about this trip.
146
00:11:21,041 --> 00:11:22,773
Why do you say that?
147
00:11:22,855 --> 00:11:25,612
Well, you're always saying how
much you don't like muscle cars.
148
00:11:26,049 --> 00:11:28,189
Yeah, I just say that
to annoy you.
149
00:11:28,529 --> 00:11:29,992
Oh, right.
150
00:11:31,695 --> 00:11:35,345
Nobody intelligent admits
that they like muscle cars,
151
00:11:35,463 --> 00:11:39,617
but secretly, deep down,
everybody does.
152
00:11:39,783 --> 00:11:41,994
They're like
power rock ballads.
153
00:11:42,072 --> 00:11:44,377
I mean, if you're driving
along with friends
154
00:11:44,463 --> 00:11:47,736
and Don't Stop Believing by
Journey comes on the radio,
155
00:11:47,814 --> 00:11:50,728
you say, "This is rubbish," and you
huff and puff and turn it off.
156
00:11:50,900 --> 00:11:55,306
If you're on your own and it comes on,
you turn it up and you sing along.
157
00:11:55,791 --> 00:11:57,497
You do.
158
00:11:57,681 --> 00:12:02,783
Chaps, did you know mine only
comes with one seat as standard?
159
00:12:03,095 --> 00:12:04,853
- Really?
- What?
160
00:12:05,299 --> 00:12:07,877
As standard,
you get one seat in a Demon.
161
00:12:07,955 --> 00:12:10,119
You can opt to have
the others put back in
162
00:12:10,197 --> 00:12:11,869
and it costs you a dollar.
163
00:12:12,111 --> 00:12:14,316
Which seat do they put in
as standard?
164
00:12:25,499 --> 00:12:29,244
Eventually, we decided to
pull over in our motoring theme park
165
00:12:29,470 --> 00:12:32,430
to see which of our
fairground muscle rides
166
00:12:32,605 --> 00:12:34,653
would be the fastest...
167
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:38,306
in a street drag race.
168
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,918
So what I'm thinking is here,
when the lights go green...
169
00:12:48,055 --> 00:12:50,307
What's a quarter of a mile,
just beyond the church?
170
00:12:50,385 --> 00:12:51,893
Yeah, something like that.
Perfect.
171
00:12:51,975 --> 00:12:54,689
- What if the police come?
- Well, he won't. He's in Beverly Hills.
172
00:12:54,767 --> 00:12:57,439
- I've seen the movie.
- Why can't we just do this
173
00:12:57,517 --> 00:12:59,720
on a racetrack or a runway
like we usually do?
174
00:12:59,822 --> 00:13:01,790
Because we're here to prove
that this is a racetrack.
175
00:13:01,908 --> 00:13:05,228
Detroit is empty now and should just
be used for this sort of thing.
176
00:13:05,306 --> 00:13:07,682
Yes, yes, but it isn't a real
race, an actual racetrack.
177
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:08,760
- No, it is!
- It is!
178
00:13:08,838 --> 00:13:10,213
This is where
the muscle car was born.
179
00:13:10,291 --> 00:13:12,275
- I can't do it.
- Why can't you do it?
180
00:13:12,353 --> 00:13:13,900
Because Dodge
only lent me that car
181
00:13:13,978 --> 00:13:16,590
if I promised not to do any drag
racing on the road with it.
182
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,541
What? That's what it's for!
183
00:13:18,695 --> 00:13:21,166
- I know.
- That's literally what it's for.
184
00:13:21,244 --> 00:13:23,338
Yes, I know, but
that's the way it is. Sorry..
185
00:13:23,536 --> 00:13:24,767
D'you think
it's an insurance...?
186
00:13:24,845 --> 00:13:26,682
- It is, because it's him.
- No. It's not.
187
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,064
- Don't want it on the roof.
- "Who's driving it?" Richard Hammond.
188
00:13:29,142 --> 00:13:30,150
You can't drive it.
189
00:13:30,228 --> 00:13:32,603
It's just what they said
and I'm really sorry.
190
00:13:32,681 --> 00:13:35,228
- So, we can't do it, I'm sorry.
- We can.
191
00:13:35,502 --> 00:13:37,064
You're not gonna do it
without that...
192
00:13:37,142 --> 00:13:39,236
Uh... let me think.
Yeah, we are.
193
00:13:39,314 --> 00:13:42,273
Just right... Just right
the way, right the way off.
194
00:13:42,892 --> 00:13:46,030
One for all and all for yourselves,
that's how it goes, isn't it?
195
00:13:46,112 --> 00:13:51,247
Having decided to make the doorway
of a barber shop the finishing line,
196
00:13:51,632 --> 00:13:54,247
James and I
prepared for the race.
197
00:13:56,434 --> 00:13:59,864
I'm only doing this to annoy Hammond.
I mean, I can't possibly win.
198
00:14:00,044 --> 00:14:01,817
Yes,
I've got a supercharged V8,
199
00:14:01,966 --> 00:14:05,817
but it only produces
720 horsepower.
200
00:14:06,575 --> 00:14:10,493
That's 280 less
than The Exorcist.
201
00:14:10,598 --> 00:14:14,192
I don't wanna sound like you, but
the launch control in this car
202
00:14:14,270 --> 00:14:16,864
is so complicated there's
a YouTube video about it.
203
00:14:16,942 --> 00:14:18,950
And I have watched it,
but I've forgotten.
204
00:14:19,114 --> 00:14:22,301
Why don't we have a gentleman's
agreement to not use launch control?
205
00:14:22,481 --> 00:14:25,731
Well, that might save
my clutch, so...
206
00:14:26,295 --> 00:14:28,879
Yes, right.
We won't use launch control.
207
00:14:28,957 --> 00:14:30,800
- I've got a manual gearbox.
- You can both do it
208
00:14:30,878 --> 00:14:32,073
naked for all I care.
209
00:14:32,151 --> 00:14:33,533
Just get on with it.
210
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:37,442
Oo-ooh, look at Captain
Cheerful over there!
211
00:14:45,175 --> 00:14:47,200
Air con is off.
212
00:15:09,932 --> 00:15:11,917
May got a good start.
213
00:15:17,455 --> 00:15:19,528
Come on, come on,
come on, come on,
214
00:15:19,606 --> 00:15:22,014
there's only
a one-car length in it!
215
00:15:22,335 --> 00:15:23,733
Easy!
216
00:15:24,778 --> 00:15:26,348
Bloody Nora,
that was close!
217
00:15:26,426 --> 00:15:28,870
But I got a terrible start,
so we gotta do it again, May.
218
00:15:33,036 --> 00:15:35,061
Put it in first gear.
219
00:15:40,490 --> 00:15:41,809
Whoa!
220
00:15:45,810 --> 00:15:48,315
I can't do it.
It's spinning its wheels.
221
00:15:50,836 --> 00:15:52,871
Woo-hoo, hoo-hoo!
222
00:15:54,255 --> 00:15:57,199
You do know you're both
too old for this, don't you?
223
00:15:57,449 --> 00:16:01,692
What, for driving muscle cars up
and down the public roads of Detroit?
224
00:16:01,770 --> 00:16:03,778
Because nobody else
is using them.
225
00:16:03,980 --> 00:16:05,722
Well, Richard Hammond
certainly isn't using them.
226
00:16:08,975 --> 00:16:13,519
Since it was one-all and we were
having enormous fun annoying Hammond,
227
00:16:13,815 --> 00:16:16,261
we decided to go again.
228
00:16:16,655 --> 00:16:18,995
What is this,
best of 30 now?
229
00:16:19,124 --> 00:16:21,386
What else are we gonna do?
230
00:16:21,535 --> 00:16:23,769
Keep going till
one of you wets yourselves.
231
00:16:25,895 --> 00:16:28,394
For the next 17 runs,
232
00:16:28,472 --> 00:16:31,160
the result was always
the same.
233
00:16:31,535 --> 00:16:33,831
Thank you very much.
234
00:16:35,532 --> 00:16:37,277
Come on! Come on!
235
00:16:38,878 --> 00:16:40,777
Give up, buddy.
236
00:16:43,683 --> 00:16:44,839
I'm angry.
237
00:16:45,042 --> 00:16:46,604
I'm not giving in, James.
One more.
238
00:16:46,682 --> 00:16:48,813
Oh, for God's sake!
239
00:16:49,050 --> 00:16:52,917
I gave him my word I wouldn't
use launch control.
240
00:16:53,207 --> 00:16:56,644
I'm simply going to go back
on that and not tell him.
241
00:17:02,499 --> 00:17:04,954
That was a good gear change.
So was that.
242
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:11,191
But there's just nothing I can do to get
up with that 1,000 horsepower monster.
243
00:17:13,628 --> 00:17:16,373
Finally,
I waved the white flag.
244
00:17:16,589 --> 00:17:18,511
And then we took
a closer look
245
00:17:18,589 --> 00:17:22,570
at the savage beating
heart of The Exorcist.
246
00:17:22,815 --> 00:17:25,581
And that's the standard
Corvette engine, basically.
247
00:17:25,667 --> 00:17:29,558
- Z06, yeah.
- With a supercharger plonked on the top.
248
00:17:29,636 --> 00:17:32,847
- That's there, yes?
- Yes, 2.9 litre supercharger.
249
00:17:33,050 --> 00:17:35,738
So the bit they've bolted
to your engine
250
00:17:35,816 --> 00:17:38,464
is bigger than most
European engines?
251
00:17:38,542 --> 00:17:40,996
- Yes.
- So is the one on mine. It's 2.7 litres.
252
00:17:41,074 --> 00:17:44,543
Yeah, not as big. The point is,
Hammond, this is The Exorcist.
253
00:17:44,621 --> 00:17:47,236
The job of The Exorcist
is to vanquish the Demon.
254
00:17:47,314 --> 00:17:49,775
It's like, you remember
in the '60s, I think,
255
00:17:49,857 --> 00:17:51,992
De Tomaso made a car
called the Mangusta,
256
00:17:52,074 --> 00:17:54,295
which is Italian
for mongoose.
257
00:17:54,377 --> 00:17:56,392
Yes, and a mongoose
can kill a cobra, can't it?
258
00:17:56,474 --> 00:17:57,685
That's why they did it.
259
00:17:57,763 --> 00:18:00,075
Yes, but this hasn't
vanquished the Demon.
260
00:18:00,153 --> 00:18:02,535
- It hasn't beaten it.
- Tell you what.
261
00:18:02,617 --> 00:18:05,992
Why don't you find a racetrack
or a runway somewhere, OK?
262
00:18:06,074 --> 00:18:07,592
I'll gracefully bow out.
263
00:18:07,674 --> 00:18:12,802
And we can have a race
between good... and evil.
264
00:18:19,277 --> 00:18:25,282
First, though, we decided to find out which
of our cars makes the loudest noise.
265
00:18:26,137 --> 00:18:28,872
There were, of course,
many possible locations
266
00:18:28,954 --> 00:18:31,089
for this important test.
267
00:18:31,324 --> 00:18:36,962
But eventually, we found one
that was absolutely ideal.
268
00:18:50,175 --> 00:18:52,112
What is this place?
269
00:18:52,194 --> 00:18:55,269
Well, it obviously
was a theatre.
270
00:18:55,378 --> 00:18:56,912
They built it on the site
271
00:18:56,994 --> 00:19:01,282
of Henry Ford's
first ever workshop.
272
00:19:01,977 --> 00:19:04,975
- And when I say theatre...
- Oh, wow!
273
00:19:05,057 --> 00:19:06,935
So it was in 1925
they built it,
274
00:19:07,017 --> 00:19:09,895
when Detroit was just about the
richest city in the world.
275
00:19:09,977 --> 00:19:12,112
- You can see that.
- They can just build that.
276
00:19:12,194 --> 00:19:15,912
And then in the '70s, it was
converted into a rock venue.
277
00:19:15,994 --> 00:19:19,232
So, I mean, look at these
tickets I've got for it.
278
00:19:19,314 --> 00:19:22,215
- ZZ Top.
- ZZ Top and T Rex.
279
00:19:22,297 --> 00:19:24,712
- What a gig that would've been!
- It would've been fantastic.
280
00:19:24,794 --> 00:19:27,375
Sly And The Family Stone,
Spencer Davis.
281
00:19:27,457 --> 00:19:29,232
Steve Winwood
has performed in here.
282
00:19:29,314 --> 00:19:30,975
David Bowie
performed in here.
283
00:19:31,057 --> 00:19:33,432
- Blue Oyster Cult, Bob Seger.
- This was a serious venue.
284
00:19:33,514 --> 00:19:35,095
Oh, serious venue.
285
00:19:35,177 --> 00:19:37,615
And then, there were some
credit card companies
286
00:19:37,697 --> 00:19:39,672
in the offices
which are behind that wall.
287
00:19:39,754 --> 00:19:42,375
And they said,
"We need some parking."
288
00:19:42,457 --> 00:19:45,135
And just bought it and turned it
into a multi-storey car park.
289
00:19:45,217 --> 00:19:47,192
- That's amazing.
- Takes the romance out of it.
290
00:19:47,274 --> 00:19:49,072
It's sort of staggering.
291
00:19:49,154 --> 00:19:52,455
It's the birthplace of
Henry Ford's business.
292
00:19:52,537 --> 00:19:54,472
- Yeah.
- Then a theatre.
293
00:19:54,554 --> 00:19:56,277
It's a car park.
294
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,819
We can bring some theatre
back with our noise test.
295
00:19:58,897 --> 00:20:00,712
Actually, there's a kind of
poetry to it, it's beautiful.
296
00:20:00,794 --> 00:20:02,712
- Precisely.
- Not just bringing the poetry,
297
00:20:02,794 --> 00:20:04,775
also bringing
the decibel-o-meter.
298
00:20:04,857 --> 00:20:08,419
Oh, perfect. So you
can go and uh... go first.
299
00:20:08,691 --> 00:20:10,455
Why am I going first?
300
00:20:10,537 --> 00:20:13,995
- I just said you can go first.
- He did. I heard him say it.
301
00:20:15,074 --> 00:20:17,632
Since the
owners feared the noise
302
00:20:17,714 --> 00:20:20,992
from our engines would bring
down the crumbling roof,
303
00:20:21,074 --> 00:20:24,095
we were given
protective clothing.
304
00:20:24,177 --> 00:20:26,480
We have to put this on
because there may be dust.
305
00:20:26,699 --> 00:20:28,547
There will be dust.
306
00:20:30,929 --> 00:20:32,887
Traction off.
307
00:20:32,969 --> 00:20:34,887
I'll just make wheel spin.
308
00:20:35,386 --> 00:20:38,192
Wheel spin, that just makes
a huge amount of noise.
309
00:20:38,367 --> 00:20:40,935
- Are you ready?
- Yes.
310
00:20:54,457 --> 00:20:56,962
Oh, yeah, check it out!
311
00:20:59,796 --> 00:21:03,550
I can see jack shit.
312
00:21:06,339 --> 00:21:09,282
- God, that's pretty horrible.
- How loud?
313
00:21:09,777 --> 00:21:11,912
- Well, at its peak...
- Yeah?
314
00:21:11,994 --> 00:21:15,121
125.2.
315
00:21:15,199 --> 00:21:16,916
Well, wait a minute, you
don't know, you haven't...
316
00:21:16,994 --> 00:21:19,160
- You're the first to go.
- 125?
317
00:21:19,316 --> 00:21:20,737
Yes.
318
00:21:22,066 --> 00:21:23,975
The Who.
319
00:21:24,214 --> 00:21:27,605
Widely regarded to be the
loudest rock band of all time.
320
00:21:27,683 --> 00:21:31,089
- Yes.
- 126 decibels.
321
00:21:31,497 --> 00:21:35,055
Deep Purple,
a mere 117 decibels.
322
00:21:35,137 --> 00:21:38,455
That car is louder
than Deep Purple.
323
00:21:38,537 --> 00:21:41,722
But probably a lot quieter
than my Demon.
324
00:21:49,737 --> 00:21:52,352
Any minute now, a paramedic will
be cutting his trousers off.
325
00:21:52,434 --> 00:21:54,552
He should've taken
them off before he got in.
326
00:21:54,634 --> 00:21:56,592
I don't know why
he wears trousers.
327
00:21:56,674 --> 00:21:58,632
Here we go.
Ready in three, two...
328
00:22:01,270 --> 00:22:02,965
Oh, wait a minute,
it hasn't done it.
329
00:22:07,457 --> 00:22:09,605
Easy mistake.
330
00:22:09,734 --> 00:22:12,076
We've all done it - forgotten the
key when you're doughnutting
331
00:22:12,154 --> 00:22:15,272
in a Detroit theatre that's been
turned into a multi-storey car park.
332
00:22:15,354 --> 00:22:17,282
Everybody's been there.
333
00:22:17,558 --> 00:22:20,824
OK. In three, two...
334
00:22:44,472 --> 00:22:46,897
- 125.2 to beat.
- Yeah.
335
00:22:48,628 --> 00:22:50,163
Doesn't make a lot of noise.
336
00:22:50,394 --> 00:22:52,335
118.8, tiptoe boy.
337
00:22:52,417 --> 00:22:56,214
It's got a 2.7 litre capacity
supercharger on it!
338
00:22:56,292 --> 00:22:57,636
Yeah, but,
it doesn't make any noise.
339
00:22:57,714 --> 00:22:59,652
They didn't build it for this,
they built it for drag racing.
340
00:22:59,730 --> 00:23:01,956
- And they wouldn't let me do that, so...
- Oh, did they?
341
00:23:02,034 --> 00:23:05,215
- How do we know?
- Well, they did.
342
00:23:05,297 --> 00:23:08,632
Before this sore
point became even sorer,
343
00:23:08,714 --> 00:23:11,122
I sent James off
to have a go.
344
00:23:12,571 --> 00:23:14,626
Don't think
he's ever done a doughnut.
345
00:23:14,704 --> 00:23:16,645
- No. No.
- In his life.
346
00:23:16,740 --> 00:23:21,075
We are about to witness James
D May losing his virginity.
347
00:23:21,274 --> 00:23:23,672
Popping his doughnut cherry.
348
00:23:27,325 --> 00:23:29,300
James May,
are you ready?
349
00:23:29,796 --> 00:23:32,204
Fire it up in three...
350
00:23:38,257 --> 00:23:40,902
Cock.
351
00:23:47,761 --> 00:23:49,512
Bollocks.
352
00:23:53,097 --> 00:23:57,730
It took him a little while,
but eventually he got the hang of it.
353
00:24:11,257 --> 00:24:13,215
What's my score?
354
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,464
Why don't we just go?
355
00:24:15,617 --> 00:24:17,992
- Come on, James, gotta go.
- Yep, moving on.
356
00:24:18,074 --> 00:24:19,777
- What was it?
- Oh, I've wiped it.
357
00:24:19,855 --> 00:24:22,036
- No, you haven't.
- It was 12.
358
00:24:22,314 --> 00:24:24,729
Come on... Why've I got this on my face?
What was it?
359
00:24:24,807 --> 00:24:27,753
It was 128,
so just 2.8 more than me.
360
00:24:27,831 --> 00:24:29,464
- So more?
- Yes.
361
00:24:29,617 --> 00:24:30,855
- Hold that.
- Why?
362
00:24:30,937 --> 00:24:32,152
Please just hold that.
363
00:24:32,230 --> 00:24:34,707
Oh, I hate the victory dance!
364
00:24:34,785 --> 00:24:36,792
- I hate the victory dance.
- Good, right, let's move on.
365
00:24:36,894 --> 00:24:38,535
How much is your car?
How much?
366
00:24:38,613 --> 00:24:40,964
- 98, something like that?
- £98,000.
367
00:24:41,042 --> 00:24:42,499
- Yes.
- £40,000.
368
00:24:42,577 --> 00:24:44,432
Yeah, but mine's better,
so it's more expensive.
369
00:24:44,514 --> 00:24:46,472
- £40,000.
- It's faster and louder.
370
00:24:46,554 --> 00:24:49,878
720 horsepower, £40,000.
371
00:24:50,167 --> 00:24:53,282
Am I the only person here
who understands muscle cars?
372
00:24:54,987 --> 00:24:57,412
That's a ridiculous thing
to say!
373
00:25:00,777 --> 00:25:02,910
Having had
a very busy morning,
374
00:25:02,988 --> 00:25:04,895
we were now hungry.
375
00:25:04,977 --> 00:25:08,402
Which, in this part of town,
was a problem.
376
00:25:09,617 --> 00:25:12,682
Not an abundance of restaurants
around here, is there?
377
00:25:13,379 --> 00:25:16,257
I haven't seen any.
378
00:25:16,335 --> 00:25:18,030
I just noticed
a Coney Island Restaurant
379
00:25:18,108 --> 00:25:21,628
but I'm afraid it's
been shut for 30 years.
380
00:25:22,666 --> 00:25:25,214
Having failed
to find even a takeout,
381
00:25:25,292 --> 00:25:28,415
we started to look
for a hotel.
382
00:25:28,593 --> 00:25:30,831
But there wasn't
one of those either.
383
00:25:31,154 --> 00:25:34,347
So we decided to buy a house.
384
00:25:38,217 --> 00:25:39,952
Let me show you
what we've got.
385
00:25:40,034 --> 00:25:43,415
Handsome vestibule, feature
tiled floor, front room here,
386
00:25:43,497 --> 00:25:46,312
feature fireplace, loads of
light from all these windows.
387
00:25:46,394 --> 00:25:50,312
This, I would say, use as a dining room
because it's adjacent to the kitchen.
388
00:25:50,394 --> 00:25:52,792
Needs the appliances
refitting, not a big job.
389
00:25:52,874 --> 00:25:56,495
In there, I would say that's
a really handy games room,
390
00:25:56,577 --> 00:25:59,032
TV room, overlooking the
garden and the double garage.
391
00:25:59,114 --> 00:26:02,455
Here, perfect for a home
office, maybe a snug.
392
00:26:02,537 --> 00:26:05,752
Upstairs four bedrooms,
and here's the kicker.
393
00:26:05,834 --> 00:26:09,495
An independent granny flat
with its own kitchen,
394
00:26:09,577 --> 00:26:13,392
so Jeremy can live up there semi-independently
for as long as he can manage.
395
00:26:13,474 --> 00:26:16,482
And the price?
$2,200.
396
00:26:18,417 --> 00:26:21,535
Is that really only...
What was it, $2,200?
397
00:26:21,617 --> 00:26:22,935
- Yeah.
- 1800 quid.
398
00:26:23,017 --> 00:26:24,135
Amazing, isn't it?
399
00:26:24,217 --> 00:26:26,112
Shall I show you
something else amazing?
400
00:26:26,194 --> 00:26:31,215
Captain Slow has fallen for
this eco-allotment claptrap.
401
00:26:31,297 --> 00:26:34,792
I haven't fallen for it, and it's not
claptrap, it's just a vegetable plot.
402
00:26:34,874 --> 00:26:36,992
- It's only a bit.
- Buy food, don't grow it.
403
00:26:37,074 --> 00:26:39,295
- Why not?
- That's a farmer's job.
404
00:26:39,377 --> 00:26:42,735
Turning a city into a vegetable
garden is ridiculous.
405
00:26:42,817 --> 00:26:45,015
No, who's turned a city
into a vegetable garden?
406
00:26:45,097 --> 00:26:46,992
That's what they want to do
and you're encouraging them.
407
00:26:47,074 --> 00:26:49,032
Detroit should be
for petrolheads.
408
00:26:49,114 --> 00:26:51,655
It should be for massive V8s
like our cars.
409
00:26:51,737 --> 00:26:54,375
It's a great idea by a
city that's having a bad time
410
00:26:54,457 --> 00:26:56,655
and trying to use its initiative.
What's wrong with it?
411
00:26:56,737 --> 00:26:58,272
It's not as if there's any
vegetables in the shops.
412
00:26:58,354 --> 00:27:00,992
- New is better.
- I am not listening to any more of this.
413
00:27:01,074 --> 00:27:03,095
I am going to go off.
I'm gonna find a shop.
414
00:27:03,177 --> 00:27:04,672
I'm gonna come back
with burgers.
415
00:27:04,754 --> 00:27:06,872
Well, you can have
some curly kale in them.
416
00:27:06,954 --> 00:27:08,392
Bloody allotment!
417
00:27:10,417 --> 00:27:12,432
Just because
he's become a vegetarian
418
00:27:12,514 --> 00:27:15,815
doesn't mean that absolutely
everybody has to be one.
419
00:27:15,897 --> 00:27:18,952
- Don't be a moron!
- Well, I can't get out, he's parked in the way.
420
00:27:27,937 --> 00:27:30,872
Well, on that terrible
disappointment, back to the tent.
421
00:27:34,417 --> 00:27:36,655
You asked for it.
You asked for it.
422
00:27:36,737 --> 00:27:38,232
We never got
the burgers either.
423
00:27:38,314 --> 00:27:39,552
No, we didn't.
424
00:27:39,634 --> 00:27:41,177
We uh...
425
00:27:44,297 --> 00:27:46,432
We shall pick that up
later on.
426
00:27:46,514 --> 00:27:50,192
But now it is time to drop
the car keys of chat
427
00:27:50,274 --> 00:27:53,295
down the drain of debate...
428
00:27:53,377 --> 00:27:55,632
on Conversation Street.
429
00:28:02,737 --> 00:28:04,135
That's a little weird.
430
00:28:04,217 --> 00:28:06,792
- How'd you do that?
- Don't know. Can't remember.
431
00:28:06,874 --> 00:28:11,592
Can I just begin by saying that I
think the very concept of incongruity
432
00:28:11,674 --> 00:28:15,152
was defined in that film
in Detroit by James May,
433
00:28:15,234 --> 00:28:17,615
the slowest moving man
in history,
434
00:28:17,697 --> 00:28:20,495
driving around in
a car called The Exorcist.
435
00:28:20,577 --> 00:28:23,352
Yeah, it just doesn't work.
"James May is The Exorcist."
436
00:28:23,434 --> 00:28:26,992
No, I mean, if he's gonna have a car,
it should be called The Florist.
437
00:28:27,074 --> 00:28:29,482
Or The Organist.
438
00:28:30,937 --> 00:28:32,832
- Simple change to that, The Onanist.
- Nice.
439
00:28:32,914 --> 00:28:35,614
- I think The Onanist would work well.
- Have you quite finished?
440
00:28:35,692 --> 00:28:36,544
Uh... yeah.
441
00:28:36,622 --> 00:28:38,958
Good, actually I'd like
to talk about Motor City.
442
00:28:39,036 --> 00:28:40,939
More specifically,
what's happening to it.
443
00:28:41,017 --> 00:28:42,472
I'll tell you
what's happening to it.
444
00:28:42,554 --> 00:28:44,632
It is being slowly ruined
by vegetable-ists.
445
00:28:44,714 --> 00:28:47,215
- Oh, God.
- It is!
446
00:28:47,297 --> 00:28:50,215
There are two million acres
of land in Detroit, OK?
447
00:28:50,297 --> 00:28:54,082
Would anybody like to guess how many acres
have been given over to allotments?
448
00:28:55,017 --> 00:28:57,552
Six.
449
00:28:57,634 --> 00:28:59,752
- 1,000.
- No, it's three.
450
00:28:59,834 --> 00:29:01,295
Three acres.
451
00:29:01,377 --> 00:29:03,552
- And he's driven over two of them.
- Exactly.
452
00:29:03,634 --> 00:29:06,015
Yes, and rightly so.
It's like cancer.
453
00:29:06,097 --> 00:29:08,055
- It's not like cancer!
- It is!
454
00:29:08,137 --> 00:29:11,175
If you said, "I've got
two billion cells in my body"
455
00:29:11,257 --> 00:29:12,952
and only three are cancerous
so I shall do nothing..."
456
00:29:13,034 --> 00:29:14,695
You don't, you cut them out.
457
00:29:14,777 --> 00:29:17,312
Yeah, but cancer is a serious
threat to your health.
458
00:29:17,394 --> 00:29:19,352
Well, so are vegetables.
They are.
459
00:29:19,434 --> 00:29:21,480
You do know you're mad?
460
00:29:21,644 --> 00:29:23,272
No, I'll tell you
what I'm mad about.
461
00:29:23,354 --> 00:29:25,152
I'm mad as hell
about Detroit.
462
00:29:25,234 --> 00:29:29,792
Because in 1960, that was
the richest city in America.
463
00:29:29,874 --> 00:29:33,335
The richest.
And now it is the poorest.
464
00:29:33,417 --> 00:29:37,352
And no other city anywhere in the
world has collapsed that quickly.
465
00:29:37,434 --> 00:29:39,792
What about Hiroshima?
466
00:29:41,377 --> 00:29:42,712
Apart from Hiroshima.
467
00:29:42,794 --> 00:29:44,495
Pompeii.
468
00:29:44,577 --> 00:29:47,575
Yes, apart from
Hiroshima and Pompeii,
469
00:29:47,657 --> 00:29:49,735
no city has collapsed
as fast as Detroit has.
470
00:29:49,817 --> 00:29:51,792
- It's unbelievable.
- Incredible the scale of it.
471
00:29:51,874 --> 00:29:55,527
There used to be
43 car factories in Detroit.
472
00:29:55,605 --> 00:29:56,775
43.
473
00:29:56,857 --> 00:29:59,316
Now two. Just two.
474
00:29:59,425 --> 00:30:02,752
I actually think it's because
America won the war, weirdly.
475
00:30:02,834 --> 00:30:04,655
- Vietnam.
- Really?
476
00:30:04,737 --> 00:30:06,975
No, I was lying.
They lost that one.
477
00:30:07,057 --> 00:30:08,652
Not in all the films,
they didn't.
478
00:30:08,738 --> 00:30:11,512
They won in the films but when you
add up all the battles they won,
479
00:30:11,594 --> 00:30:13,824
- weirdly they lost the war.
- Did they?
480
00:30:13,902 --> 00:30:15,672
No, I'm actually talking
about World War II.
481
00:30:15,754 --> 00:30:19,552
At the end of that, Japan had lost its
empire, so it lost all its resources.
482
00:30:19,634 --> 00:30:23,232
So they were forced to make compact,
economical, efficient cars.
483
00:30:23,314 --> 00:30:25,455
And then the oil crisis
hit in 1973,
484
00:30:25,537 --> 00:30:27,232
and the Americans,
with their big V8s,
485
00:30:27,314 --> 00:30:30,232
were forced to buy small, compact,
economical cars from Japan.
486
00:30:30,314 --> 00:30:32,552
And then realised
they were better.
487
00:30:32,634 --> 00:30:36,805
No, I think it's because
American cars are too cheap.
488
00:30:36,883 --> 00:30:37,797
Too cheap?
489
00:30:37,875 --> 00:30:39,563
It's a business thing.
That's the problem.
490
00:30:39,641 --> 00:30:43,633
Sorry, everyone, I fear we are about
to get an economic lecture from...
491
00:30:44,290 --> 00:30:46,385
Chancellor Hammond here.
492
00:30:46,463 --> 00:30:48,984
- Well, no.
- The other Chancellor Hammond.
493
00:30:49,062 --> 00:30:52,619
No, you are... Now concentrate, let
me put this into context for you.
494
00:30:52,697 --> 00:30:55,414
A lot of supercars have arrived
on the scene recently.
495
00:30:55,516 --> 00:30:58,232
I've got pictures of them.
This is the McLaren Speedtail,
496
00:30:58,314 --> 00:31:00,272
that's 1,000 horsepower.
497
00:31:00,354 --> 00:31:02,095
Costs £2.1 million.
498
00:31:02,177 --> 00:31:03,912
- And its wheels are odd.
- They are. They don't match.
499
00:31:03,994 --> 00:31:07,359
This is the Aston Martin Valkyrie,
that's 1,000 horsepower again.
500
00:31:07,437 --> 00:31:09,687
£2.5 million.
501
00:31:09,774 --> 00:31:13,672
This one, that's
the Ferrari FXX-K Evo,
502
00:31:13,797 --> 00:31:16,655
1,000 horsepower,
£3.5 million.
503
00:31:16,737 --> 00:31:18,695
Best looking Ferrari
of all time, that.
504
00:31:18,777 --> 00:31:21,592
- It does look amazing, yeah,
- It is absolutely staggering.
505
00:31:21,674 --> 00:31:24,032
However, they've all got
1,000 horsepower,
506
00:31:24,114 --> 00:31:27,415
which means
they will all be undriveable.
507
00:31:27,497 --> 00:31:30,072
Yeah, whereas my Exorcist
has 1,000 horsepower
508
00:31:30,154 --> 00:31:33,295
and is undriveable
for under £100,000.
509
00:31:33,377 --> 00:31:37,055
Yes, and that's... that's
exactly my economic point.
510
00:31:37,219 --> 00:31:38,712
They're selling them
too cheap.
511
00:31:38,794 --> 00:31:40,180
They're just giving it away.
512
00:31:40,258 --> 00:31:44,000
If American carmakers doubled the
price of the cars that they sell,
513
00:31:44,114 --> 00:31:47,855
bear with me, they would double
the money that they make.
514
00:31:47,937 --> 00:31:49,832
It's not that complicated
when you think about it.
515
00:31:49,914 --> 00:31:51,250
If you follow the logic.
516
00:31:51,328 --> 00:31:54,223
I've said before, the wrong Hammond
is in charge of Britain's...
517
00:31:54,414 --> 00:31:56,355
Yeah. It is incredible.
518
00:31:56,433 --> 00:31:57,968
You've got a supply
and demand graph.
519
00:31:58,186 --> 00:31:59,887
If you take away
the demand axis,
520
00:32:00,017 --> 00:32:02,632
life becomes much easier
when it's all just supply.
521
00:32:02,714 --> 00:32:05,192
Precisely. The Hellcat
that I was driving
522
00:32:05,274 --> 00:32:07,135
was priced at £67,000.
523
00:32:07,217 --> 00:32:09,352
- Yeah.
- People are now selling them,
524
00:32:09,434 --> 00:32:12,375
that same car,
second-hand for £120,000.
525
00:32:12,457 --> 00:32:15,592
And one bloke has advertised
one for half a million.
526
00:32:15,674 --> 00:32:19,242
So that means they were
too cheap and I'm right.
527
00:32:20,817 --> 00:32:22,992
- It is hard to argue with that.
- Unassailable.
528
00:32:23,074 --> 00:32:25,563
And we don't have time,
so let's move it on.
529
00:32:25,641 --> 00:32:28,775
Because you may remember
in the very first show
530
00:32:28,857 --> 00:32:30,632
of The Grand Tour
in the first season...
531
00:32:30,714 --> 00:32:33,775
I was blown
away by a McLaren P1.
532
00:32:33,857 --> 00:32:36,272
Yeah, I do remember.
You said it would be faster
533
00:32:36,354 --> 00:32:38,984
than the Porsche 918
and the Ferrari LaFerrari.
534
00:32:39,062 --> 00:32:39,619
Mm-hm.
535
00:32:39,697 --> 00:32:41,735
And, no, wait a minute,
it wasn't, was it?
536
00:32:41,817 --> 00:32:45,032
And as a result, the only thing
that got blown away was your house.
537
00:32:45,114 --> 00:32:47,535
- That's undoubtedly true.
- Yeah.
538
00:32:47,617 --> 00:32:50,472
But the thing is, it remains
to this day the most exciting,
539
00:32:50,554 --> 00:32:53,295
most brutal, most visceral
car I've ever driven.
540
00:32:53,377 --> 00:32:55,632
And I didn't think
it could ever be topped,
541
00:32:55,714 --> 00:32:57,432
but McLaren
have given it a bash.
542
00:32:57,514 --> 00:33:02,711
And I thought, "Well, if they've
built a car that can out-P1 a P1",
543
00:33:02,789 --> 00:33:05,344
I'd better test it
somewhere a bit less...
544
00:33:05,422 --> 00:33:07,615
narrow
and a bit less tree-lined
545
00:33:07,697 --> 00:33:10,552
and a bit less covered in deers
and badgers than the Eboladrome.
546
00:33:11,817 --> 00:33:15,015
So I took it to the fastest
racetrack in Europe,
547
00:33:15,097 --> 00:33:17,642
which is... Actually, anyone
wanna guess which it is?
548
00:33:18,257 --> 00:33:20,112
- Monza?
- No, not Monza.
549
00:33:20,194 --> 00:33:21,655
- Spa.
- Not Spa.
550
00:33:21,737 --> 00:33:22,872
- Do you know?
- What?
551
00:33:22,954 --> 00:33:24,895
Do you know?
552
00:33:24,977 --> 00:33:26,112
Of course I know!
553
00:33:26,194 --> 00:33:29,615
- You know? That's unusual.
- Why is it unusual?
554
00:33:29,697 --> 00:33:33,512
You didn't know any of the answers on
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, did you?
555
00:33:33,594 --> 00:33:35,415
I mean...
556
00:33:35,497 --> 00:33:37,472
I'm just saying.
557
00:33:37,554 --> 00:33:39,615
You didn't.
558
00:33:39,697 --> 00:33:41,192
No. But, no.
559
00:33:41,274 --> 00:33:42,695
No.
560
00:33:42,777 --> 00:33:45,775
They didn't ask me any of the
questions I knew the answers to.
561
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:48,032
- That's what it was.
- No, but it's not called.
562
00:33:48,114 --> 00:33:50,632
Who Wants To Know Things
Jeremy Happens To Know, is it?
563
00:33:50,714 --> 00:33:52,775
- It's Thruxton.
- What is?
564
00:33:52,857 --> 00:33:55,125
Thruxton is the fastest
racetrack in Europe.
565
00:33:55,203 --> 00:33:58,070
So that's where I took
the new McLaren.
566
00:33:59,177 --> 00:34:00,952
Engine's
beginning throttling down now.
567
00:34:02,514 --> 00:34:04,922
And lift-off.
568
00:34:06,457 --> 00:34:07,792
Clear of the tower.
569
00:34:07,874 --> 00:34:09,722
Go with throttle up.
570
00:34:16,817 --> 00:34:19,522
This is the car in question.
571
00:34:21,057 --> 00:34:24,912
And let's begin by giving
you some of the headlines.
572
00:34:24,994 --> 00:34:29,592
There's no hybrid drive,
like there was in the P1.
573
00:34:29,674 --> 00:34:34,482
But even so, the 4 litre,
twin turbocharged V8...
574
00:34:35,337 --> 00:34:39,322
produces 789 horsepower.
575
00:34:41,657 --> 00:34:45,562
And that means
it's still pretty fast.
576
00:34:47,337 --> 00:34:48,897
OK, right.
577
00:34:50,337 --> 00:34:52,002
Left foot on brake.
578
00:34:55,314 --> 00:34:56,962
Push launch.
579
00:34:58,897 --> 00:35:00,215
Full throttle.
580
00:35:00,297 --> 00:35:03,042
Boost building, boost ready,
we're gone.
581
00:35:07,897 --> 00:35:11,162
0-60 in 2.7 seconds.
582
00:35:13,057 --> 00:35:15,922
That's 120... 150.
583
00:35:16,537 --> 00:35:18,282
Jesus H Christ!
584
00:35:22,297 --> 00:35:25,832
It'll actually do 186
in 18 seconds,
585
00:35:25,914 --> 00:35:28,895
and flat out is 208.
586
00:35:28,977 --> 00:35:31,682
And that's really
alarming.
587
00:35:32,457 --> 00:35:34,432
I'm gonna be sick. Ohh!
588
00:35:34,514 --> 00:35:35,977
Whoa!
589
00:35:39,097 --> 00:35:44,162
The thing is, though, that lots of supercars
are as fast as the McLaren these days.
590
00:35:45,777 --> 00:35:48,312
Some are even more powerful,
591
00:35:48,394 --> 00:35:51,562
and even more dramatic
to behold.
592
00:35:52,977 --> 00:35:55,402
But this is called the Senna.
593
00:35:55,977 --> 00:35:57,695
It's named after
Ayrton Senna,
594
00:35:57,777 --> 00:36:00,352
and Ayrton was not a man
who spent his evenings
595
00:36:00,434 --> 00:36:04,095
cruising around Harrods
at nine miles an hour.
596
00:36:04,177 --> 00:36:07,272
And nor was he a man who spent
much time at drag strips,
597
00:36:07,354 --> 00:36:09,312
doing the standing quarter.
598
00:36:09,394 --> 00:36:10,655
No.
599
00:36:10,737 --> 00:36:14,842
Ayrton was a man who made
his name at places like this.
600
00:36:16,257 --> 00:36:18,042
Racetracks.
601
00:36:22,737 --> 00:36:26,002
This is what
the Senna was built to do:
602
00:36:27,137 --> 00:36:29,072
get round any track,
anywhere,
603
00:36:29,154 --> 00:36:33,762
faster than any other
road car ever made.
604
00:36:37,257 --> 00:36:39,392
To do this,
they had to make it light.
605
00:36:39,474 --> 00:36:42,335
And they have.
The doors, for example.
606
00:36:42,417 --> 00:36:44,832
Even though they have
windows in them here,
607
00:36:44,914 --> 00:36:49,935
so passers-by can see
the driver's trousers,
608
00:36:50,017 --> 00:36:52,095
they only weigh
nine kilograms
609
00:36:52,177 --> 00:36:55,055
and that's less than
one of Kate Moss's arms.
610
00:36:55,137 --> 00:36:56,792
And then there's the seats.
611
00:36:56,874 --> 00:36:59,815
They only weigh
eight kilograms.
612
00:36:59,897 --> 00:37:02,322
I've eaten puddings
that weigh more than that!
613
00:37:03,017 --> 00:37:04,712
Go with throttle up.
614
00:37:04,794 --> 00:37:07,375
Having got the weight out,
615
00:37:07,457 --> 00:37:11,162
the Senna's nearly a quarter
of a ton lighter than the P1.
616
00:37:11,817 --> 00:37:14,242
They had to think about grip.
617
00:37:15,737 --> 00:37:18,272
They started with
a new type of Pirelli tyre
618
00:37:18,354 --> 00:37:22,512
that clings on like a panicky
child on a fairground ride.
619
00:37:22,594 --> 00:37:26,215
And then there's
this moving rear wing,
620
00:37:26,297 --> 00:37:28,592
which is somehow road legal.
621
00:37:28,674 --> 00:37:31,775
It actually hangs
from these pylons,
622
00:37:31,857 --> 00:37:33,832
rather than sits
on top of them,
623
00:37:33,914 --> 00:37:36,312
because that
improves downforce.
624
00:37:36,394 --> 00:37:39,215
I asked James May
to explain why,
625
00:37:39,297 --> 00:37:43,442
but I'm afraid, after three
hours, I went into a deep sleep.
626
00:37:45,457 --> 00:37:48,472
The next most import thing
when it comes to lap times
627
00:37:48,554 --> 00:37:51,482
is how well it slows down.
628
00:37:52,777 --> 00:37:56,792
I was once in a 24-hour race
at Silverstone,
629
00:37:56,874 --> 00:38:00,495
driving a terrible
old diesel BMW
630
00:38:00,577 --> 00:38:05,592
and yet I could keep up with
a supercharged Jaguar XKR
631
00:38:05,674 --> 00:38:09,375
because I had better brakes.
632
00:38:09,457 --> 00:38:11,912
I'd look at him getting to the
end of the Hangar Straight,
633
00:38:11,994 --> 00:38:15,602
thinking, "Why are you braking now,
you idiot? You don't need to."
634
00:38:16,937 --> 00:38:21,095
And that is
this car's party piece.
635
00:38:21,177 --> 00:38:23,312
To show you
how well this car stops,
636
00:38:23,394 --> 00:38:25,802
I've organised a little test.
637
00:38:28,577 --> 00:38:33,162
Right, I'm currently driving
alongside a Jaguar F Type...
638
00:38:34,057 --> 00:38:35,392
at 100 miles an hour.
639
00:38:35,474 --> 00:38:38,482
When we get to that
cone down there...
640
00:38:40,337 --> 00:38:42,562
we're both going to brake.
641
00:38:44,657 --> 00:38:46,577
Ready?
642
00:39:02,497 --> 00:39:06,282
How can you stop from 100 miles an
hour to nothing in that distance?
643
00:39:09,777 --> 00:39:13,975
So, it stops like
it's run into a wall...
644
00:39:14,057 --> 00:39:17,442
it's pressed into
the road by witchcraft...
645
00:39:18,497 --> 00:39:21,282
it weighs the same
as a bag of whippets...
646
00:39:22,417 --> 00:39:26,815
and it has nearly
800 horsepower on tap.
647
00:39:26,897 --> 00:39:30,842
Put all that together
and... um, well...
648
00:39:35,737 --> 00:39:38,162
Oh, my giddy aunt!
649
00:39:45,297 --> 00:39:49,842
It doesn't have
the savagery of the P1.
650
00:39:50,417 --> 00:39:52,935
The P1 was so scary,
651
00:39:53,017 --> 00:39:57,095
it took me two months
to get used to it,
652
00:39:57,177 --> 00:40:00,055
to discover
its little foibles.
653
00:40:00,137 --> 00:40:04,855
This, though, even though
I'm now in hunkered-down,
654
00:40:04,937 --> 00:40:07,032
tightened-up,
vicious race mode,
655
00:40:07,114 --> 00:40:10,522
with the traction control
wound right back,
656
00:40:11,337 --> 00:40:13,295
I'm not frightened at all.
657
00:40:13,377 --> 00:40:16,432
I'm starting to push the
envelope after 20 minutes.
658
00:40:23,517 --> 00:40:27,629
But you see, through there, the
P1 would have understeered.
659
00:40:27,711 --> 00:40:29,955
This just doesn't because
660
00:40:30,037 --> 00:40:33,349
there's no weight
to push it out of line.
661
00:40:33,431 --> 00:40:38,107
It's like you're driving
using nothing but telepathy.
662
00:40:46,637 --> 00:40:49,387
And I'm loving it!
663
00:40:52,757 --> 00:40:54,989
In the past, I've
described various Ferraris
664
00:40:55,079 --> 00:40:58,136
as feeling
beautifully delicate.
665
00:40:58,285 --> 00:41:02,306
But compared to this,
they're like elephants!
666
00:41:06,902 --> 00:41:07,980
Criticisms?
667
00:41:08,113 --> 00:41:11,281
Not many, I mean,
the usual McLaren stuff.
668
00:41:11,359 --> 00:41:14,671
When you try to change it from
comfort to track to sport to race,
669
00:41:14,753 --> 00:41:17,157
it's all far too complicated.
670
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:22,191
And I know they saved 15 kilograms
not fitting air conditioning,
671
00:41:22,273 --> 00:41:26,789
but on a hot day like today,
it's quite sweaty.
672
00:41:29,079 --> 00:41:31,829
But who cares?
673
00:41:39,479 --> 00:41:45,309
Honestly, this thing is rewriting
the supercar rule book, in my mind.
674
00:42:02,279 --> 00:42:04,277
Unbelievable car, that.
675
00:42:04,359 --> 00:42:06,551
I'm actually proud
to be British with that.
676
00:42:06,633 --> 00:42:07,959
What?
677
00:42:09,359 --> 00:42:11,317
- Yes, definitely.
- What?
678
00:42:11,399 --> 00:42:15,511
Well, just... while the film was on
we've just been online and checked.
679
00:42:15,593 --> 00:42:18,311
Thruxton is not
the fastest track in Europe.
680
00:42:18,393 --> 00:42:20,157
- What?
- It's not.
681
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,037
- Why isn't it?
- Well, it isn't the fastest track.
682
00:42:23,119 --> 00:42:24,911
Well, it's the fastest
racetrack in Wiltshire.
683
00:42:24,993 --> 00:42:25,701
It's in Hampshire.
684
00:42:25,779 --> 00:42:27,319
- You don't even know...
- It's in Hampshire.
685
00:42:27,397 --> 00:42:29,473
- You don't know where it is.
- You don't even know that!
686
00:42:29,551 --> 00:42:33,961
They described themselves as the
fastest track in the South of England.
687
00:42:34,039 --> 00:42:35,452
- Not Europe.
- After Brexit
688
00:42:35,530 --> 00:42:37,312
- it'll be the fastest in Europe.
- Right.
689
00:42:37,437 --> 00:42:39,277
Anyway, whatever,
back to your film.
690
00:42:39,359 --> 00:42:41,791
You said "rewriting
the supercar rule book".
691
00:42:41,873 --> 00:42:43,637
Those are big words.
692
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,077
Yeah, and they're correct.
693
00:42:45,159 --> 00:42:46,416
- Are they?
- No, they are.
694
00:42:46,494 --> 00:42:48,025
No, for once,
I am actually...
695
00:42:48,103 --> 00:42:49,831
First time this show
I'm right.
696
00:42:49,917 --> 00:42:54,361
Because that car... You remember the
Lamborghini Huracán Performante?
697
00:42:54,439 --> 00:42:56,917
- I loved that car.
- OK, that blitzed our track.
698
00:42:56,999 --> 00:42:59,711
Absolutely blitzed it, fastest
road car ever round there.
699
00:42:59,793 --> 00:43:02,917
I can guarantee
the Senna will be quicker.
700
00:43:02,999 --> 00:43:05,511
- Guaran...
- Here we go again. Good.
701
00:43:05,593 --> 00:43:07,191
I promise it will be.
702
00:43:07,273 --> 00:43:08,437
I promise.
703
00:43:08,519 --> 00:43:10,671
If it isn't, can we blow up
your house?
704
00:43:12,119 --> 00:43:13,837
I haven't finished
building it yet.
705
00:43:13,919 --> 00:43:16,151
Well, when you've finished
building it, can we blow it up?
706
00:43:16,233 --> 00:43:18,077
Yes.
707
00:43:18,159 --> 00:43:21,773
No, I am so confident
the Senna will be faster,
708
00:43:21,952 --> 00:43:23,898
that if it isn't,
when I've finished
709
00:43:23,976 --> 00:43:25,335
building my house, you
can blow it up again.
710
00:43:25,413 --> 00:43:27,997
You do know that we will?
We will do that.
711
00:43:28,079 --> 00:43:29,231
- We will do that.
- We will.
712
00:43:29,313 --> 00:43:31,749
We'll wait till you're in.
713
00:43:33,359 --> 00:43:36,191
Let's play the tape, come on.
Let's have a look.
714
00:43:36,273 --> 00:43:38,637
There's Abby, and she's off,
715
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,317
flying away from the line
like a stabbed rat.
716
00:43:41,399 --> 00:43:43,391
And coming onto
the Isn't Straight.
717
00:43:43,473 --> 00:43:47,757
Already carrying
some serious speed.
718
00:43:47,839 --> 00:43:50,637
Looking busy at the wheel on the
bumpy surface of our track,
719
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,751
but those hydraulically interconnected
dampers are doing their job
720
00:43:53,833 --> 00:43:56,149
of keeping it all tied down.
721
00:43:57,559 --> 00:43:59,117
Oh, that is flying!
722
00:43:59,199 --> 00:44:01,911
She's already dropping down
into Your Name Here.
723
00:44:03,119 --> 00:44:05,877
Some squeal from
the Pirelli P Zero Trofeos
724
00:44:05,959 --> 00:44:08,551
as she carves round there
and then it's back on the gas
725
00:44:08,633 --> 00:44:11,677
to unleash
that mighty twin turbo V8
726
00:44:11,759 --> 00:44:13,631
for the return run
down to the Isn't.
727
00:44:13,713 --> 00:44:17,077
I am feeling confident here!
728
00:44:17,159 --> 00:44:19,911
Right, now hard on those
incredible carbon ceramic brakes
729
00:44:19,993 --> 00:44:24,391
for the tight, and technical,
Old Lady's House.
730
00:44:24,473 --> 00:44:28,357
No excess weight
to drag the nose wide.
731
00:44:28,439 --> 00:44:31,237
And now, on the fast run
to Substation,
732
00:44:31,319 --> 00:44:33,751
riding the ruts
and lumps with ease.
733
00:44:33,833 --> 00:44:35,757
Two corners left.
734
00:44:35,839 --> 00:44:38,151
More tyre squeal
through there,
735
00:44:38,233 --> 00:44:40,157
rear wing
doing its thing.
736
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,951
And now a bit of oversteer
and across the line.
737
00:44:44,753 --> 00:44:47,391
Looks good,
it does look good.
738
00:44:47,473 --> 00:44:48,559
But...
739
00:44:50,999 --> 00:44:52,374
Got everything we need
to blow it up?
740
00:44:52,456 --> 00:44:54,191
There it is, there's the
Huracán Performante.
741
00:44:54,273 --> 00:44:56,077
1.16.8.
742
00:44:56,159 --> 00:44:58,197
And I have guaranteed
it'll be faster
743
00:44:58,279 --> 00:44:59,597
or you'll blow
my house up.
744
00:44:59,679 --> 00:45:02,271
And you're doing well on facts
this week, so far, aren't you?
745
00:45:02,353 --> 00:45:04,077
How are you feeling?
746
00:45:04,159 --> 00:45:06,877
- Totally relaxed.
- Are you really?
747
00:45:08,599 --> 00:45:11,197
Thing is, we haven't got far
to go to blow it up, have we?
748
00:45:11,279 --> 00:45:12,511
It's just gonna be
over there.
749
00:45:12,593 --> 00:45:15,189
Come on, let's see
how fast it was.
750
00:45:15,799 --> 00:45:17,791
Oh, oh...
751
00:45:19,913 --> 00:45:23,109
- Damn!
- 1:12!
752
00:45:23,559 --> 00:45:25,469
That is serious.
753
00:45:26,119 --> 00:45:29,917
That's four
seconds quicker.
754
00:45:29,999 --> 00:45:32,711
That's quicker than the Vulcan, and
the Vulcan isn't even road legal.
755
00:45:32,793 --> 00:45:34,957
That's absolutely amazing.
756
00:45:35,039 --> 00:45:38,071
That is astonishing and we can add it
to the list of things that you know.
757
00:45:40,359 --> 00:45:43,997
- Anyway, we must now get back to our film.
- Yes.
758
00:45:44,079 --> 00:45:47,151
Earlier on, we decided
that Detroit should be
759
00:45:47,233 --> 00:45:49,877
a big sort of
petrolhead theme park,
760
00:45:49,959 --> 00:45:53,351
so we went over there with
three tuned muscle cars.
761
00:45:53,433 --> 00:45:57,277
So far we've staged a drag
race, done some doughnuts
762
00:45:57,359 --> 00:45:59,831
and Jeremy has driven over
some vegetables.
763
00:45:59,913 --> 00:46:05,014
And then the next day, we decided that
what Detroit really needs is a racetrack.
764
00:46:05,096 --> 00:46:07,397
Yeah, even though
it already has two.
765
00:46:07,479 --> 00:46:09,471
Yes, but we wanted
something more earthy.
766
00:46:09,553 --> 00:46:12,749
So we headed
for the city centre.
767
00:46:31,439 --> 00:46:34,397
As we headed
for the downtown area,
768
00:46:34,479 --> 00:46:38,509
I decided to do a bit of
muscle car housekeeping.
769
00:46:39,559 --> 00:46:42,751
Can I just ask everybody what
your average fuel consumption
770
00:46:42,833 --> 00:46:45,751
has been
since we got to Detroit?
771
00:46:45,833 --> 00:46:49,654
Overall, over the whole trip,
eight mpg.
772
00:46:49,736 --> 00:46:54,109
Yeah, mine is a healthy
3.9 miles per gallon.
773
00:46:54,679 --> 00:46:56,711
You're joking? 3.9?
774
00:46:56,793 --> 00:46:59,029
Yes, siree Bob.
775
00:46:59,319 --> 00:47:02,871
13 mpg from the Mustang.
776
00:47:02,953 --> 00:47:05,311
Is it a hybrid?
777
00:47:08,599 --> 00:47:11,551
If it had been a hybrid, it
would have fitted in very well
778
00:47:11,633 --> 00:47:15,989
with what the centre of Detroit
has become these days.
779
00:47:18,639 --> 00:47:21,477
Florist... cafés...
780
00:47:21,559 --> 00:47:25,111
Oh, for heaven's sake,
Urban Ramen!
781
00:47:25,193 --> 00:47:27,909
No, no, no, no!
782
00:47:29,359 --> 00:47:33,757
In 1997,
in downtown Detroit,
783
00:47:33,839 --> 00:47:36,991
someone put a gun
against my head.
784
00:47:37,073 --> 00:47:42,677
Now it's just all hipsters
with dogs and bicycles.
785
00:47:42,759 --> 00:47:46,629
If you want to start a tech business,
bugger off to San Francisco.
786
00:47:48,319 --> 00:47:51,871
Oh, for God's sake, have you
seen this little urban garden?
787
00:47:51,953 --> 00:47:54,397
Oh, no.
788
00:47:54,479 --> 00:47:56,877
Why has he got such
a problem with gardens?
789
00:47:56,959 --> 00:47:59,151
Look down there,
it's just all greenhouses
790
00:47:59,233 --> 00:48:02,669
full of little
artisan... soaps.
791
00:48:02,747 --> 00:48:04,065
There's a Tesla!
792
00:48:04,143 --> 00:48:07,040
There's a bloody Tesla
in Detroit!
793
00:48:07,157 --> 00:48:09,511
If only the world were full of
people like Jeremy Clarkson.
794
00:48:09,593 --> 00:48:12,277
Then we could have
slavery and witch burning.
795
00:48:12,359 --> 00:48:14,671
Right, well, we've
established one thing.
796
00:48:14,753 --> 00:48:17,951
The centre of Detroit...
that ain't a racetrack,
797
00:48:18,033 --> 00:48:19,974
that's a wholefood market.
798
00:48:20,056 --> 00:48:23,429
We need to get out of here,
this is the enemy.
799
00:48:26,919 --> 00:48:29,471
Having returned to
the rundown suburbs,
800
00:48:29,553 --> 00:48:34,349
we eventually found the perfect
place to build a racetrack:
801
00:48:36,959 --> 00:48:40,709
Cadillac's old
Conner Avenue Factory.
802
00:48:42,679 --> 00:48:46,551
For over 60 years, they stamped
out the body panels here
803
00:48:46,633 --> 00:48:50,671
for icons, like
the Eldorado, the Fleetwood,
804
00:48:50,753 --> 00:48:53,469
and the Coupe de Ville.
805
00:48:56,399 --> 00:48:59,311
If it were up to James,
this creaking monument
806
00:48:59,393 --> 00:49:04,269
to the Motor City's decline would
be turned into a shrubbery.
807
00:49:06,159 --> 00:49:08,117
But it wasn't up to James.
808
00:49:08,199 --> 00:49:11,911
So it would become a Monte
Carlo-style tunnel feature
809
00:49:11,993 --> 00:49:15,389
on our Detroit-themed
racetrack.
810
00:49:18,159 --> 00:49:19,831
Right, so what I
thought we'd do is
811
00:49:19,913 --> 00:49:22,511
we'd name all of the corners
and all of the straights
812
00:49:22,593 --> 00:49:25,877
after various musicians
who are from Detroit.
813
00:49:25,959 --> 00:49:30,997
So, for example, put that there, and
then this would be Alice Cooper Corner.
814
00:49:31,079 --> 00:49:33,231
- Yeah, nice touch.
- And I've got all the faces.
815
00:49:33,313 --> 00:49:36,277
I've got Glenn Frey from the
Eagles, Jack White, Madonna,
816
00:49:36,359 --> 00:49:38,111
Aretha Franklin, Bob Seger,
Ted Nugent.
817
00:49:38,193 --> 00:49:39,631
What's that stick for?
818
00:49:39,713 --> 00:49:42,757
Oh, that's um...
that's Iggy pop.
819
00:49:42,839 --> 00:49:45,111
- Oh, yeah, it's like he's here.
- Yeah, exactly.
820
00:49:45,193 --> 00:49:48,117
Then as we go into
the back section over there,
821
00:49:48,199 --> 00:49:51,671
you've got Marvin Gaye, Stevie
Wonder, Eminem, Diana Ross,
822
00:49:51,753 --> 00:49:54,357
Sonny Bono, Martha Reeves,
823
00:49:54,439 --> 00:49:56,525
Anthony Kiedis,
Smokey Robinson.
824
00:49:56,626 --> 00:49:58,337
You look in the book
and you just go...
825
00:49:58,415 --> 00:50:00,618
"They can't all be
from Detroit!"
826
00:50:01,142 --> 00:50:03,134
Did you know Madonna
was from Detroit?
827
00:50:03,212 --> 00:50:04,698
No.
828
00:50:07,411 --> 00:50:10,564
Because building the track
involved heavy machinery
829
00:50:10,642 --> 00:50:12,118
and manual labour,
830
00:50:12,267 --> 00:50:16,389
Hammond insisted on
doing everything himself.
831
00:50:18,369 --> 00:50:21,561
That is gonna be
a fast corner.
832
00:50:23,759 --> 00:50:27,869
Despite this, though,
he soon had everything ready.
833
00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:39,951
Sadly, though, he had got
a bit confused about
834
00:50:40,033 --> 00:50:43,189
naming the corners
after local musicians.
835
00:50:46,085 --> 00:50:47,530
- What?
- Why have you...
836
00:50:47,608 --> 00:50:48,641
Why have you got The Edge?
837
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,920
Well, you said there was
Sonny Bono.
838
00:50:51,020 --> 00:50:52,944
Yes, Hammond, Sonny Bono
839
00:50:53,022 --> 00:50:56,423
and The Edge from the famous
Detroit rock band U2.
840
00:50:56,553 --> 00:50:58,159
Exactly.
841
00:51:00,505 --> 00:51:05,134
Because the track had been built by the
world's most accident-prone driver,
842
00:51:05,415 --> 00:51:08,911
we thought it best that
the God-fearing Exorcist
843
00:51:08,993 --> 00:51:10,591
should christen it.
844
00:51:20,039 --> 00:51:21,439
So bumpy!
845
00:51:24,603 --> 00:51:26,913
What the hell is this?
846
00:51:34,034 --> 00:51:37,224
What's that, some sort of
chicane he's put in there?
847
00:51:38,999 --> 00:51:42,671
Whoa, slippery,
that's slippery as hell!
848
00:51:42,753 --> 00:51:46,631
What? That...
That's unbelievably narrow!
849
00:51:46,713 --> 00:51:49,429
What's he thinking of?
850
00:51:53,839 --> 00:51:55,150
Oh, hello.
851
00:51:56,399 --> 00:51:59,149
Here he comes.
852
00:52:01,255 --> 00:52:06,653
After his run, James couldn't wait to
give Hammond some constructive feedback.
853
00:52:06,824 --> 00:52:10,077
I just wanna say, Hammond,
you witless dishcloth!
854
00:52:10,159 --> 00:52:12,637
That is the worst racetrack
I've ever been round.
855
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:16,668
It's slippery, it's full of holes, it's
full of obstacles for you to crash into.
856
00:52:16,793 --> 00:52:18,691
- It's narrow.
- It's challenging, isn't it? Technical.
857
00:52:18,769 --> 00:52:21,351
It's not challenging. It's only
about that much bigger than the car
858
00:52:21,433 --> 00:52:22,911
and it's made of butter.
859
00:52:22,993 --> 00:52:26,677
And... it appears to be
full of asbestos waste.
860
00:52:26,759 --> 00:52:28,397
Oh, it is full
of asbestos.
861
00:52:28,479 --> 00:52:30,271
- Sorry about that.
- Well, thank you!
862
00:52:30,353 --> 00:52:32,509
Close your window.
863
00:52:38,359 --> 00:52:40,751
All of us then
set about our practice laps,
864
00:52:40,833 --> 00:52:43,597
on Hammond's death trap.
865
00:52:43,679 --> 00:52:45,511
Thin bit! Oh, God!
866
00:52:47,599 --> 00:52:49,909
I can't see a bloody thing.
867
00:52:52,959 --> 00:52:55,431
My own car doesn't fit
round my own racetrack!
868
00:52:55,513 --> 00:52:58,509
What have I done?
869
00:52:59,759 --> 00:53:01,431
Despite the peril, though,
870
00:53:01,513 --> 00:53:03,669
we gave it everything.
871
00:53:06,999 --> 00:53:08,751
And by the end
of the session,
872
00:53:08,833 --> 00:53:13,709
there was nothing in it between
The Demon and the Exorcist.
873
00:53:14,959 --> 00:53:19,069
The Mustang, though, that
was in a league of its own.
874
00:53:25,879 --> 00:53:28,789
♪ I'm not gonna take it
any more ♪
875
00:53:30,905 --> 00:53:32,345
56.4.
876
00:53:35,489 --> 00:53:36,767
Yes, you're fastest.
877
00:53:36,959 --> 00:53:38,031
Well, of course
it's the fastest,
878
00:53:38,113 --> 00:53:40,589
it's a muscle car
that handles.
879
00:53:41,547 --> 00:53:45,705
However, these were just
unofficial practice laps.
880
00:53:45,783 --> 00:53:48,095
Now it was time
for the one-shot,
881
00:53:48,173 --> 00:53:51,369
winner-takes-all real thing.
882
00:53:52,433 --> 00:53:55,437
In three, two, one...
883
00:53:55,519 --> 00:53:58,509
Begin!
884
00:54:03,399 --> 00:54:07,109
Brakes for that bit.
Bit of downshift.
885
00:54:19,879 --> 00:54:21,031
Massive bump.
886
00:54:21,113 --> 00:54:22,759
Oh, God!
887
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:28,999
Hammond.
888
00:54:31,359 --> 00:54:32,839
Slippery.
889
00:54:35,959 --> 00:54:39,469
And here he is.
Here he comes.
890
00:54:43,279 --> 00:54:46,029
- I've pooed myself.
- Funny noise.
891
00:54:47,399 --> 00:54:51,549
However, the trouser
accident had clearly been worth it.
892
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,071
You've just broken
your own record.
893
00:54:54,153 --> 00:54:57,151
- That's remarkable cos...
- 59.66.
894
00:54:57,233 --> 00:54:58,717
- Really?
- Yeah.
895
00:54:58,799 --> 00:55:00,791
I'm happy with that and I haven't
hit any famous musicians
896
00:55:00,873 --> 00:55:03,429
or bits of old car factory.
897
00:55:05,119 --> 00:55:08,469
Next it was
the turn of Corporal Crash.
898
00:55:10,439 --> 00:55:11,871
Where's the
fire engine gone?
899
00:55:11,953 --> 00:55:14,191
Fire engine's over there,
ambulance is...
900
00:55:14,273 --> 00:55:16,151
Oh, we're all comedians
today.
901
00:55:16,233 --> 00:55:19,797
Remember,
if you lose to James May...
902
00:55:19,879 --> 00:55:22,989
It's more humiliating,
It's worse than death.
903
00:55:23,279 --> 00:55:26,589
In three, two, one, go.
904
00:55:30,439 --> 00:55:32,397
Looking for grip.
905
00:55:32,479 --> 00:55:34,391
Turn in neat, crisp
by The Edge. Whoa!
906
00:55:36,479 --> 00:55:38,111
Oh, he's gone
over The Edge!
907
00:55:38,193 --> 00:55:41,189
Again.
908
00:55:42,159 --> 00:55:44,757
Oh-oh.
909
00:55:44,839 --> 00:55:46,871
- Hammond's lap's going well.
- Yeah, isn't it?
910
00:55:48,353 --> 00:55:51,149
So which corner is that
he's gone off on?
911
00:55:51,519 --> 00:55:54,349
I mean, obviously it is him.
912
00:55:54,639 --> 00:55:57,229
Amazingly, it wasn't.
913
00:56:03,919 --> 00:56:07,429
Is that Madonna?
That's Madonna. I dunno.
914
00:56:08,079 --> 00:56:10,229
Now we're in the open.
915
00:56:11,759 --> 00:56:14,149
Oh, Christ!
916
00:56:15,839 --> 00:56:18,749
Yes, no, Beelzebub's got
a bit of understeer there.
917
00:56:21,679 --> 00:56:25,309
That felt good.
It felt like a quick one.
918
00:56:26,919 --> 00:56:29,551
Ah, I don't know
how to put this to you but...
919
00:56:33,159 --> 00:56:36,511
- No, no, no, no, no.
- Yeah, yeah.
920
00:56:36,593 --> 00:56:41,229
Point four of a second
slower than James May!
921
00:56:41,599 --> 00:56:43,031
This is what death
feels like.
922
00:56:43,113 --> 00:56:44,597
OK, get out of the Demon,
923
00:56:44,679 --> 00:56:46,391
we've done the Demon
and The Exorcist.
924
00:56:46,473 --> 00:56:49,189
It's time for the Blue Nun.
925
00:56:49,439 --> 00:56:50,951
- Blue Nun?
- Yeah.
926
00:56:54,999 --> 00:56:57,271
Totally pointless
waste of time this.
927
00:56:57,353 --> 00:57:03,254
We've established the Mustang is
the fastest by an enormous margin.
928
00:57:03,336 --> 00:57:07,229
Um... I'd better go and do it,
I suppose.
929
00:57:09,159 --> 00:57:12,351
Jeremy smug in My
Little Pony. Are you ready?
930
00:57:12,433 --> 00:57:16,629
In three, two, one, begin!
931
00:57:23,039 --> 00:57:24,159
Ohh, yes!
932
00:57:25,319 --> 00:57:27,271
This is a properly
sorted track car.
933
00:57:27,353 --> 00:57:30,389
That's what
we're looking at here.
934
00:57:31,079 --> 00:57:32,631
Properly sorted it may be.
935
00:57:32,713 --> 00:57:36,909
But I had a plan that
would spoil its afternoon.
936
00:57:37,679 --> 00:57:39,671
- You're running!
- I know, but you'll see.
937
00:57:39,753 --> 00:57:42,469
Gotta get down to this corner
before he gets back.
938
00:57:42,719 --> 00:57:44,197
Help me tip this over.
939
00:57:44,279 --> 00:57:46,271
- What is it?
- It's organic palm oil.
940
00:57:46,353 --> 00:57:47,757
Very slippery.
941
00:57:47,839 --> 00:57:50,469
It's the revenge
of the urban farmer.
942
00:57:53,239 --> 00:57:57,109
Into the blind bend.
There is Stevie Wonder.
943
00:57:58,639 --> 00:58:01,431
You do know it's palm oil that's ruining
life for the world's orangutans?
944
00:58:01,513 --> 00:58:03,197
Only this one.
945
00:58:03,279 --> 00:58:05,757
Come on, come on.
946
00:58:05,839 --> 00:58:08,109
Short shifting into third.
947
00:58:11,799 --> 00:58:14,549
Ohhh!
948
00:58:14,959 --> 00:58:16,671
And on that terrible
disappointment...
949
00:58:16,753 --> 00:58:19,469
- For him.
- It's back to the tent.
950
00:58:25,119 --> 00:58:26,797
- You!
- What?
951
00:58:26,879 --> 00:58:29,871
- I thought it had been you.
- Oh, no.
952
00:58:29,953 --> 00:58:31,557
You ruined my lap.
953
00:58:31,639 --> 00:58:34,757
You said Detroit
had to be a playground
954
00:58:34,839 --> 00:58:36,591
and that's what I was doing,
I was playing.
955
00:58:36,673 --> 00:58:39,237
Listen,
can my practice time stand?
956
00:58:39,319 --> 00:58:40,951
Cos that was still
the quickest.
957
00:58:41,033 --> 00:58:43,077
That's not how it works.
958
00:58:43,159 --> 00:58:45,391
You can't just say that because you
were the quickest in qualifying,
959
00:58:45,473 --> 00:58:47,671
you would have won the race
if you hadn't crashed.
960
00:58:47,753 --> 00:58:49,797
- Well, I can say it.
- You can say it.
961
00:58:49,879 --> 00:58:51,231
I could say I'm the captain
of the English cricket team.
962
00:58:51,313 --> 00:58:53,551
I wouldn't be any good at it.
963
00:58:56,959 --> 00:58:58,877
Ah, well, moving on.
964
00:58:58,959 --> 00:59:00,991
I know where
he was going with that.
965
00:59:01,073 --> 00:59:03,997
Anyway, look,
in part one of that film,
966
00:59:04,079 --> 00:59:07,951
we said that we would have a race
between the Demon and The Exorcist,
967
00:59:08,033 --> 00:59:09,517
a drag race, yeah?
968
00:59:09,599 --> 00:59:11,591
And then it never happened.
969
00:59:11,673 --> 00:59:13,477
Except it did.
970
00:59:13,559 --> 00:59:18,117
Yeah. You see, Dodge said we
couldn't drag race it on the street.
971
00:59:18,199 --> 00:59:20,911
But they didn't say
anything about airfields.
972
00:59:20,993 --> 00:59:24,717
So after we'd finished at our
track, we found one of those.
973
00:59:24,799 --> 00:59:27,031
I bowed out of this,
like I said, cos the Mustang
974
00:59:27,113 --> 00:59:29,597
in a drag racing environment's
never gonna win.
975
00:59:29,679 --> 00:59:33,351
It became a two-horse race between
Sir Crashalot and the Onanist, OK?
976
00:59:33,433 --> 00:59:36,277
But we have a problem.
977
00:59:36,359 --> 00:59:39,711
See, we only have time left in the show,
realistically, for one more thing.
978
00:59:39,793 --> 00:59:42,591
We've got the guest segment.
This week I should tell you,
979
00:59:42,673 --> 00:59:46,709
it's between Howard
from the Halifax adverts...
980
00:59:48,119 --> 00:59:50,157
and Adrian Chiles,
981
00:59:50,239 --> 00:59:54,709
to find the fastest person you don't
really hear from much any more.
982
00:59:57,079 --> 00:59:59,071
We'll have a vote, I think.
983
00:59:59,153 --> 01:00:03,069
Who here would like to see
the celebrity segment?
984
01:00:06,719 --> 01:00:08,677
There's one over there.
985
01:00:08,759 --> 01:00:10,391
And who'd like to see
the drag race?
986
01:00:12,239 --> 01:00:15,871
- Does that mean they're not coming on?
- Very much so, James.
987
01:00:15,953 --> 01:00:19,989
So here it is, then, the race
between good and evil.
988
01:00:33,559 --> 01:00:35,471
Right, here we go, viewers.
989
01:00:35,553 --> 01:00:40,349
It's either salvation or a world
plunged into eternal darkness.
990
01:00:45,799 --> 01:00:49,717
OK, this is it: the race
between good and evil.
991
01:00:49,799 --> 01:00:51,511
Are we ready, gentlemen?
992
01:00:51,593 --> 01:00:54,309
- We ready?
- No.
993
01:00:55,919 --> 01:00:57,477
What's happening?
994
01:00:57,559 --> 01:00:59,671
I've got a couple of things
to do before we start.
995
01:00:59,753 --> 01:01:02,534
Are you saying you can't
just drag race this now?
996
01:01:02,616 --> 01:01:06,549
Well, you've gotta do it properly,
this is a proper drag racing car!
997
01:01:06,839 --> 01:01:08,317
What is he doing?
998
01:01:08,399 --> 01:01:10,471
This is what you get
when you buy a Demon.
999
01:01:10,553 --> 01:01:13,829
Costs you an extra dollar
and you get this crate.
1000
01:01:14,839 --> 01:01:16,237
Oh-ho-ho!
1001
01:01:16,319 --> 01:01:17,951
It's like a picnic hamper
for men.
1002
01:01:18,033 --> 01:01:20,957
Then, underneath,
and to either side,
1003
01:01:21,039 --> 01:01:23,671
I've got boxes with the new
EC - I've everything I need.
1004
01:01:23,753 --> 01:01:25,351
- ECU?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1005
01:01:25,433 --> 01:01:28,149
Look at that!
1006
01:01:33,153 --> 01:01:36,951
He's got this enormous crate
and some bags
1007
01:01:37,033 --> 01:01:40,357
and tins... full of tools,
1008
01:01:40,439 --> 01:01:43,037
with two space savers and...
1009
01:01:43,119 --> 01:01:44,551
Space saver wheels?
1010
01:01:44,633 --> 01:01:45,957
Hang on.
1011
01:01:46,039 --> 01:01:48,437
Why are you putting
space savers on it?
1012
01:01:48,519 --> 01:01:50,511
They're drag racing
tyres, they're lighter.
1013
01:01:50,593 --> 01:01:53,797
I don't need grip at
the front, just got to steer.
1014
01:01:53,879 --> 01:01:56,431
What else does he have to
do, apart from change the wheels?
1015
01:01:56,513 --> 01:01:59,949
Um... he's got
a new ECU to fit.
1016
01:02:00,279 --> 01:02:01,551
- Are you serious?
- Yes.
1017
01:02:01,633 --> 01:02:03,991
So it's not really
a drag racing car at all?
1018
01:02:04,073 --> 01:02:08,189
It will be once he's
completely rebuilt it.
1019
01:02:12,879 --> 01:02:15,751
This is an old-fashioned view of television
but I think we've lost the moment.
1020
01:02:15,833 --> 01:02:19,151
I think I agree with you. This was
gonna be the big end of the show,
1021
01:02:19,233 --> 01:02:20,551
good versus evil.
1022
01:02:20,633 --> 01:02:23,517
I could have walked
to the end by now.
1023
01:02:23,599 --> 01:02:27,511
I've gotta take back tyre
pressures down to 20 psi.
1024
01:02:27,593 --> 01:02:30,991
Nice fat,
squishy contact patch.
1025
01:02:36,799 --> 01:02:41,469
Exactly 25 minutes so far it's taken
him to do his quarter-mile run.
1026
01:02:42,159 --> 01:02:44,551
Oh, so, this is where it
breathes through its eye.
1027
01:02:44,633 --> 01:02:47,909
Look at that! That goes
at the back of its eye.
1028
01:02:48,919 --> 01:02:50,757
So...
1029
01:02:50,839 --> 01:02:52,991
Hammond, that is a significant component.
What is it?
1030
01:02:53,073 --> 01:02:55,957
- Air filter.
- Does it not have an air filter?
1031
01:02:56,039 --> 01:02:59,909
Yeah, but this is a performance one.
It's gonna gulp through air.
1032
01:03:05,319 --> 01:03:07,711
- Right, so that's it, good.
- Now I've gotta do the ECU.
1033
01:03:07,793 --> 01:03:11,277
Which goes in here, I believe.
I'll have to take that out.
1034
01:03:11,359 --> 01:03:15,654
So he's now got a different ECU just
telling the engine to be powerful.
1035
01:03:15,736 --> 01:03:19,109
Right, why didn't they just
put that in from the start?
1036
01:03:19,999 --> 01:03:21,511
That's good to go.
1037
01:03:21,593 --> 01:03:24,797
Sadly, though, it wasn't.
1038
01:03:24,879 --> 01:03:28,511
He's now refuelling his car with
a special... How many octane?
1039
01:03:28,593 --> 01:03:32,669
It's ethanol and gasoline
mixture... um... 104.
1040
01:03:33,439 --> 01:03:36,349
After the refuelling,
we hoped he was done.
1041
01:03:37,319 --> 01:03:38,517
But, no.
1042
01:03:38,599 --> 01:03:39,991
Right, hang on a minute.
I've got to put it
1043
01:03:40,073 --> 01:03:41,957
in neutral to get
that in the middle.
1044
01:03:42,039 --> 01:03:44,071
Hammond, you're taking
the whole dashboard off.
1045
01:03:44,153 --> 01:03:47,431
This has to come out because I'm gonna
put in a new control panel here.
1046
01:03:47,513 --> 01:03:48,957
I get a new button on it.
1047
01:03:49,039 --> 01:03:52,431
He's taking the whole centre
console out, the whole of that.
1048
01:03:52,513 --> 01:03:55,351
He's had to put it in
neutral to lift it all off.
1049
01:03:55,433 --> 01:03:56,717
What for?
1050
01:03:56,799 --> 01:03:59,031
Because you can then fit
a button, that enables him
1051
01:03:59,113 --> 01:04:02,717
to select what sort of fuel
he's running on.
1052
01:04:02,799 --> 01:04:05,431
Why don't they just put
that in from the start?
1053
01:04:05,513 --> 01:04:09,997
This all goes back in here,
with my new switch gear in.
1054
01:04:10,079 --> 01:04:12,157
It's an hour
and seven minutes.
1055
01:04:12,239 --> 01:04:14,631
Actually, you're right,
it is. It's over an hour now.
1056
01:04:14,713 --> 01:04:16,277
God!
1057
01:04:16,359 --> 01:04:19,109
There we go.
1058
01:04:21,399 --> 01:04:25,454
Finally, the rebuild
of the Demon was complete.
1059
01:04:25,536 --> 01:04:29,349
It was time for the drivers
to warm their tyres.
1060
01:04:29,639 --> 01:04:32,991
In three, two, one, burn out!
1061
01:04:47,319 --> 01:04:50,357
Right, your tyres are warm.
Are you now ready?
1062
01:04:50,439 --> 01:04:53,551
- What?
- Are you ready to come to the start line?
1063
01:04:53,633 --> 01:04:55,557
- No!
- What do you mean, no?
1064
01:04:55,639 --> 01:04:58,351
- No, that was just a celebratory burnout.
- Oh, jeez, he's got out.
1065
01:04:58,433 --> 01:05:00,951
I've done all the building work,
now I've gotta set the car up.
1066
01:05:01,033 --> 01:05:03,477
I've gotta get in the right
modes, there's stuff to do, mate.
1067
01:05:03,559 --> 01:05:05,191
Oh, I've had enough.
I'm sorry, I've had enough.
1068
01:05:05,273 --> 01:05:06,997
Bye.
1069
01:05:07,079 --> 01:05:09,789
We're never gonna do this.
1070
01:05:10,679 --> 01:05:13,917
So, I need to go into Drag.
Drag Mode Activating.
1071
01:05:13,999 --> 01:05:16,311
Excellent. Drag Transmission,
Drag Traction, Power.
1072
01:05:16,393 --> 01:05:20,437
So Power
needs to go up to 840.
1073
01:05:20,519 --> 01:05:22,311
We are now in High Octane.
1074
01:05:22,393 --> 01:05:23,757
Ho-ho!
1075
01:05:23,839 --> 01:05:25,637
I've never known
anything like it.
1076
01:05:25,719 --> 01:05:27,957
With our starter
on his way back to London,
1077
01:05:28,039 --> 01:05:29,471
the traffic lights
were brought in,
1078
01:05:29,553 --> 01:05:33,349
and finally
we were ready to go.
1079
01:05:36,679 --> 01:05:39,469
I'm gonna bust your ass,
evil boy!
1080
01:05:39,719 --> 01:05:41,077
Oh, yes.
1081
01:05:41,159 --> 01:05:42,671
What are you gonna
do with it now?
1082
01:05:42,753 --> 01:05:45,309
Cos I've seen the film
and I wouldn't do it.
1083
01:06:05,599 --> 01:06:07,991
I'm getting ahead!
I think I'm getting ahead!
1084
01:06:08,073 --> 01:06:10,469
Come on, Demon!
1085
01:06:17,159 --> 01:06:19,909
Argh, so annoying!
1086
01:06:23,199 --> 01:06:24,317
Urghh!
1087
01:06:24,399 --> 01:06:27,237
Aha! Evil wins!
1088
01:06:27,319 --> 01:06:29,949
Evil wins! Woo-hoo!
1089
01:06:34,839 --> 01:06:37,311
Ye-e-e-s!
1090
01:06:37,393 --> 01:06:38,917
Yes!
1091
01:06:38,999 --> 01:06:40,783
Victory for the Demon.
1092
01:06:40,861 --> 01:06:42,541
Thank you. Ha-ha!
1093
01:06:42,759 --> 01:06:44,799
- Cos I won.
- Yes, you won.
1094
01:06:44,924 --> 01:06:47,077
- You did win. Well done.
- You noticed, then?
1095
01:06:47,159 --> 01:06:48,182
- Yes, I noticed it.
- That I won?
1096
01:06:48,260 --> 01:06:49,942
At the end of
the race, my car
1097
01:06:50,073 --> 01:06:52,237
was in front of your car,
which means I won.
1098
01:06:52,319 --> 01:06:54,831
Can I just point out, first
you had to spend half a day
1099
01:06:54,913 --> 01:06:57,991
rebuilding half your car, and
then you had to run it on fuel
1100
01:06:58,073 --> 01:07:00,831
that you can't buy from
a normal petrol station.
1101
01:07:00,913 --> 01:07:06,200
Wait a minute, your Excrement runs
on that clever fuel all the time.
1102
01:07:06,911 --> 01:07:08,774
I was sort of banking on
you not knowing that.
1103
01:07:08,856 --> 01:07:11,364
- Yes, well, I do know.
- Gentlemen, gentlemen.
1104
01:07:11,450 --> 01:07:14,997
I think we have to agree,
the Mustang is the only car
1105
01:07:15,079 --> 01:07:17,597
here that ticks
all the muscle car boxes.
1106
01:07:17,679 --> 01:07:20,877
It's cheap, it's powerful,
it runs on fuel you can buy,
1107
01:07:20,959 --> 01:07:23,911
and you can have it with the
steering wheel on the correct side.
1108
01:07:23,993 --> 01:07:26,395
You don't get it, do you?
You just don't get it.
1109
01:07:26,473 --> 01:07:28,755
A muscle car is supposed to
have 1,000 horsepower,
1110
01:07:28,953 --> 01:07:31,477
be undriveable
and have a stupid name.
1111
01:07:31,559 --> 01:07:33,917
It's called Ready To Rock!
That is a stupid name!
1112
01:07:33,999 --> 01:07:37,114
Listen, Hammond, not only are you the
fiscal brain of this operation...
1113
01:07:37,192 --> 01:07:38,208
I am.
1114
01:07:38,286 --> 01:07:41,646
- You're also the resident
muscle car enthusiast. - yes?
1115
01:07:41,724 --> 01:07:45,138
So, and I know the answer to this, cos you
told me on the plane on the way home.
1116
01:07:45,216 --> 01:07:46,968
Of the three cars, which
would you actually buy?
1117
01:07:47,148 --> 01:07:48,352
- Buy?
- Buy.
1118
01:07:48,430 --> 01:07:49,662
- With my own money?
- Yes.
1119
01:07:49,740 --> 01:07:51,664
- Buy? Myself?
- Yes. Yes.
1120
01:07:51,879 --> 01:07:54,551
- It's the Mustang.
- There you go, the Mustang.
1121
01:07:54,633 --> 01:07:57,471
And so on that terrible
disappointment for you...
1122
01:07:57,553 --> 01:08:01,052
Snowflakes. -...it's time...
it's time to end.
1123
01:08:01,130 --> 01:08:04,145
Now, next week it
is a Grand Tour Special,
1124
01:08:04,278 --> 01:08:08,317
where we attempt to become the
first ever television show
1125
01:08:08,399 --> 01:08:09,991
in the history of television
1126
01:08:10,073 --> 01:08:13,311
to go to Colombia
and not use the C-word.
1127
01:08:13,653 --> 01:08:16,109
See you then. Goodbye.
