I've been a stunt driver on 00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:28.559 Batman, Bond, Fast and Furious. 00:04:28.880 --> 00:04:30.759 I've also played the masked racing driver 00:04:30.840 --> 00:04:32.799 on a popular motoring programme called Top... 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:42.919 Hello, Ben. 00:04:44.200 --> 00:04:48.279 Thanks for joining me at such short notice. 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:50.959 Oh, it's, it's an absolute pleasure. 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:53.201 Uh, do you not think this would be easier on the phone? 00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:56.559 You will soon understand the need for precautions. 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.079 Yep, you're a known paranoid and, uh... 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.159 We've known each other for years, anyway. 00:05:01.320 --> 00:05:04.159 - And you're certain of this? - Your name's Bary. 00:05:04.280 --> 00:05:06.319 You're the psychotic stunt coordinator, 00:05:06.400 --> 00:05:09.959 uh, whose got, sort of this massively overblown sense of secrecy. 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.239 I brought you here because I need someone 00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:14.359 with a very specific set of skills. 00:05:14.840 --> 00:05:16.279 OK, go on. 00:05:16.400 --> 00:05:18.639 It's a high-profile feature film 00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:21.479 that requires a high-speed car chase. 00:05:22.320 --> 00:05:24.919 Well, you have cable-tied the right man for the job. 00:05:34.200 --> 00:05:37.639 The scene is set at a high-security weapons store, 00:05:37.880 --> 00:05:42.199 at a top secret location, manned by heavily-armed mercenaries. 00:05:43.200 --> 00:05:46.679 Some of the guards hear the sound of an engine roaring to life, 00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:50.279 and our hero car, with you driving, naturally, 00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:52.399 leaps up from an underground bay 00:05:52.760 --> 00:05:54.119 and the chase is on. 00:05:54.760 --> 00:05:57.119 The guards, realizing it's a rogue vehicle, 00:05:57.200 --> 00:06:00.159 open fire on the car that's racing through the weapons store, 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:02.359 avoiding other vehicles and gun fire. 00:06:02.440 --> 00:06:03.559 Armed with blanks? 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.159 In the main, yes. 00:06:05.320 --> 00:06:07.359 - In the main? - With the alarm raised... 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.279 A guard triggers the electric gate to seal the facility. 00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.079 You, in the hero car, must make it through 00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:14.599 before the gates close. 00:06:14.760 --> 00:06:17.319 Providing you get through, you'll begin to make your escape 00:06:17.400 --> 00:06:20.399 off-road around the outer perimeter of the store. 00:06:20.960 --> 00:06:25.439 After avoiding further gunfire, you will then be pursued by a 4x4. 00:06:25.520 --> 00:06:29.519 This means that the hero car must run well off-road. 00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:30.999 OK, I think I can handle that. 00:06:31.080 --> 00:06:33.239 Could you just rewind to the part about the blanks? 00:06:33.320 --> 00:06:35.719 Once you have made your way onto the main road, 00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:39.279 the car needs the speed to outrun the 4x4. 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.559 After this, you'll then be pursued by two further vehicles, 00:06:42.640 --> 00:06:44.719 yet to be decided by the director. 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.159 Any idea what they are, or... 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.159 The last attack will be from the air, 00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:52.039 either by plane, helicopter or by attack drones. 00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.679 Naturally, the aircraft will be armed. 00:06:54.760 --> 00:06:55.759 With blanks? 00:06:55.840 --> 00:06:57.879 The feature film is set in the present day, 00:06:57.960 --> 00:06:59.039 so no old stuff. 00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.959 You have 48 hours to get out there 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:05.079 and find me the perfect car for this stunt. 00:07:05.440 --> 00:07:07.679 Great. You've got yourself a stunt driver. 00:08:45.640 --> 00:08:48.919 Now, although Bary the stunt coordinator's recruitment techniques 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:52.679 are a bit unorthodox, to say the least, he does have an exciting mission. 00:08:52.760 --> 00:08:55.679 But it's quite a tough one because it's not that straightforward, 00:08:55.760 --> 00:08:59.519 picking a car that performs just as well off-road as it does on it. 00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:03.959 And, I'll tell you now, I'm not picking an SUV. 00:09:04.040 --> 00:09:06.119 They claim to be masters of everything, but really, 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.079 they don't do anything that well. 00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:09.799 And the other thing that is playing on my mind 00:09:09.880 --> 00:09:11.239 is this aerial attack, 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.919 because whether it's a plane, a heli or a drone, 00:09:14.040 --> 00:09:15.719 all of them have a massive top speed, 00:09:15.800 --> 00:09:17.559 and I need something that can outrun it. 00:09:17.880 --> 00:09:21.799 But I do know a place where top speed is almost unlimited. 00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:45.719 This is Rockingham Motor Speedway, 00:09:45.880 --> 00:09:48.399 a 1.5-mile piece of Americana 00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:51.919 that looks like it crash landed in the middle of the English countryside. 00:09:57.480 --> 00:09:59.799 This seven-degree banked super speedway 00:09:59.880 --> 00:10:01.679 is the fastest of its kind in Europe. 00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.839 But, it's not just the track that makes it feel like you're in the deep south. 00:10:07.640 --> 00:10:09.119 Because Rockingham has a fleet 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.639 of America's greatest gift to the motorsport world, 00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:13.999 NASCARs. 00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:16.559 Born out of the days of moonshiners, 00:10:16.640 --> 00:10:18.279 running illegal whisky at high speed 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.159 across the southern states. 00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:24.279 It's now a multibillion dollar global motorsport empire. 00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.999 Now, the secret of NASCAR's success is its sheer simplicity. 00:10:57.080 --> 00:11:00.959 Because, here I am, sitting inside a space frame cage, 00:11:01.040 --> 00:11:03.879 basically covered in steel sheeting. 00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:07.639 Up front is a bellowing V8 push rod engine 00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:10.119 that kicks out 600 horsepower, 00:11:10.520 --> 00:11:12.679 slaved to the rear axle 00:11:12.920 --> 00:11:15.239 by this gigantic prop shaft. 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:19.079 It sits on these great, big Goodyear bags of rubber 00:11:19.400 --> 00:11:22.479 that's gluing me to the track when I wind the engine up. 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:27.519 Given an open stretch, 00:11:27.640 --> 00:11:29.719 easily I can bust it past 200. 00:11:29.800 --> 00:11:32.759 And that's enough to keep a helicopter or a drone 00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:35.119 or pretty much whatever it is that is coming at me 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.399 from an aerial attack, on its toes. 00:11:39.560 --> 00:11:41.199 Gonna get the hammer down, baby! 00:11:41.280 --> 00:11:43.639 Shake and Bake! Shake and Bake! 00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:56.759 I just love this car. 00:11:57.680 --> 00:12:00.039 It reminds me of the good old days I had here 00:12:00.160 --> 00:12:02.079 racing in the ASCAR series, 00:12:02.160 --> 00:12:04.079 when I won the European championship, 00:12:04.520 --> 00:12:06.599 and set the lap record, which still stands. 00:12:12.760 --> 00:12:14.839 So, this NASCAR has super speed, 00:12:14.920 --> 00:12:16.399 so it gets a massive tick in the box, 00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:18.519 in terms of evading aerial attack. 00:12:19.040 --> 00:12:21.719 And it can maintain those speeds for extended periods, 00:12:21.800 --> 00:12:23.559 so, another important tick there. 00:12:24.400 --> 00:12:26.079 The only thing that is troubling me, 00:12:26.280 --> 00:12:28.479 when I'm traveling in a straight line, 00:12:28.560 --> 00:12:32.079 I have to turn the steering wheel quite a long way to the right. 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.479 That's because this car is built 00:12:34.560 --> 00:12:36.839 to turn left and kind of only left. 00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.959 So, what I'm gonna do is take it onto the infield 00:12:40.040 --> 00:12:42.399 and see how it fares when I turn right. 00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:48.039 It's so unstable and the brake pedal is so stiff. 00:12:53.560 --> 00:12:54.639 Jeez. 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.999 OK, that wasn't very good or dignified. 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:05.999 The brakes just aren't designed to be leant on that hard, 00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:08.119 because you hardly brake on the oval. 00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:11.199 Because the wheels are pointing the wrong way, 00:13:11.280 --> 00:13:12.639 when I turn right, 00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:14.719 you just get this massive understeer, 00:13:14.800 --> 00:13:17.039 touch the throttle and the back end lights up, 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:19.679 because the axle's pointing the wrong way as well. 00:13:19.760 --> 00:13:21.839 It's like driving, I don't know... 00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:23.519 A wheelie bin. 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:29.679 Here we go. There's another tight hairpin. 00:13:29.760 --> 00:13:30.759 I'm dreading this. 00:13:31.040 --> 00:13:33.479 Keep turning, keep turning, nothing's happening. 00:13:33.920 --> 00:13:35.319 Sh... 00:13:39.800 --> 00:13:41.879 I think I'll be doing that all day long. 00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:46.559 I love this baby, but I think I'll have to retire it and find something else. 00:13:53.400 --> 00:13:55.239 Something like that looks pretty nice. 00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:00.919 Now, I know Bary said no old cars, 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:02.879 but if it was good enough for Steve McQueen in Bullitt, 00:14:03.280 --> 00:14:04.479 it'd be rude not to. 00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.159 Now, this is a bit more like it! 00:14:14.280 --> 00:14:16.159 A proper American muscle car. 00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:22.199 The 1965 Ford Mustang was built to chew up road courses like this one. 00:14:26.160 --> 00:14:29.359 Now I should have no problem tackling a few lefts and rights. 00:14:31.680 --> 00:14:32.959 I love these old cars. 00:14:33.040 --> 00:14:36.759 You can feel the heritage of it. You can smell the leather. 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:41.319 You can smell some gasoline, actually, to be honest. 00:14:45.760 --> 00:14:47.719 You've got lots of movement in the tyre 00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:50.959 that, really, you can embrace it and drive the car to its limit. 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:01.559 I drove a car just like this one in Fast and Furious, 00:15:01.680 --> 00:15:03.519 chasing through the streets of London. 00:15:23.040 --> 00:15:25.879 Now, that high-pitched sound you're hearing 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:28.039 is the inside wheel spinning, 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:29.439 so there's obviously... 00:15:29.520 --> 00:15:32.039 There's no lock diff in the back putting traction 00:15:32.160 --> 00:15:36.639 through both rear tyres, which is not good for making forward progress. 00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:40.519 It's, uh, pretty spongy and not really that stable, 00:15:41.040 --> 00:15:42.799 and the jelly-like suspension... 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.159 Well, you can't exactly say it corners like it's on rails. 00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:49.839 Oh! 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:51.679 It's all right, granddad. 00:15:57.640 --> 00:16:00.119 The beauty of the '65 Mustang, though, 00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:02.439 is it does look the part, and I'll give it that. 00:16:02.560 --> 00:16:04.799 But I don't think I'll get many points for that 00:16:04.880 --> 00:16:06.999 when I'm under attack from live rounds, 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:09.599 from whatever it is that Bary's got in store for me. 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.599 And as much as I love this track and these machines, 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:19.679 my search is going to have to cary on elsewhere, 00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:23.039 because I think that when it really comes down to it, 00:16:23.640 --> 00:16:26.079 these old boys are going to let me down. 00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:41.799 You have one new message. 00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:48.359 Ben, don't think I'm not monitoring your every move. 00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:50.839 I told you, no old cars. 00:16:51.080 --> 00:16:54.399 Stop disobeying orders and carry out the mission. 00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:58.759 Otherwise, I will be forced to take extreme measures. 00:17:06.120 --> 00:17:09.519 Now, as much as I love old school American muscle cars, 00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:12.479 those ones just threw up far more questions than answers. 00:17:12.600 --> 00:17:16.559 They are totally impractical, fragile even by modern standards. 00:17:16.760 --> 00:17:20.159 But, what I do still need is something with the NASCAR top speed 00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:21.839 that corners like it's on rails. 00:17:22.120 --> 00:17:24.599 In short, what I think I need is a supercar. 00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:28.319 And there's none more capable or more loaded with technology 00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:30.039 than the one I'm driving next. 00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.359 Welcome to the future. 00:17:57.600 --> 00:18:01.679 This is the 650S, the latest creation from McLaren 00:18:01.760 --> 00:18:04.359 and a quantum leap in terms of car design. 00:18:06.120 --> 00:18:07.839 Every inch of this technical marvel 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.359 has been engineered to make it go faster than its rivals. 00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:16.919 From the integrated front splitter that creates downforce, 00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:18.959 to these unique door blades 00:18:19.040 --> 00:18:21.799 that help generate incredible grip and balance. 00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.919 And then, there's the engine, 00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:28.319 a twin-turbo V8 warp drive 00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:33.319 that propels the 650S to a top speed of 207 miles per hour. 00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:36.639 Now, that really is flying machine speed. 00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.079 Now, I'm fortunate enough to have driven 00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:58.799 well, nearly evey supercar in the modern era, 00:18:59.080 --> 00:19:00.879 from Bugatti to Ferrari, 00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:03.479 Aston Martin to Lamborghini, all of them. 00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:06.559 And they all have one thing very much in common, 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:08.559 which is that they're different to this McLaren, 00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:10.959 because this car is truly unique, 00:19:11.120 --> 00:19:14.359 in that it has liquid suspension, and I'm not joking. 00:19:18.040 --> 00:19:22.719 It's got hydraulic fluid that rushes across the suspension very, very quickly, 00:19:22.800 --> 00:19:26.439 and responds when you need to shore up some support in a corner. 00:19:26.600 --> 00:19:30.879 And it's absolutely incredible to drive, because it's so responsive. 00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:40.559 And if you're wondering where this mythical technology comes from, 00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:42.639 well, of course, it comes from Formula 1. 00:19:43.080 --> 00:19:46.199 McLaren have been involved at the sharp end since the '60s, 00:19:47.040 --> 00:19:49.639 and a lot of the active technology on this car 00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:52.759 was banned from Formula 1, because it was an unfair advantage. 00:19:52.840 --> 00:19:57.159 But all is fair in love, war, supercars and stunt sequences. 00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:59.119 So their loss is my gain. 00:20:02.560 --> 00:20:06.039 And the other good thing about Formula 1 technology is that it's tough. 00:20:06.120 --> 00:20:09.439 This car is made from a carbon fibre mono cell body 00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:11.679 that sits around the driver like a cocoon. 00:20:11.760 --> 00:20:14.439 So it's fantastically protective in a crash, 00:20:14.520 --> 00:20:17.199 as well as giving you the support in the corners. 00:20:17.280 --> 00:20:20.039 Now, that should be good for taking a bullet or five, 00:20:20.120 --> 00:20:21.359 if it comes to that. 00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:24.801 With this kind of technology, 00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:29.759 the 650S can accelerate to 60 miles per hour in 2.9 seconds, 00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:33.679 and come to a dead stop in just under 29 meters. 00:20:36.360 --> 00:20:39.039 Now, some of those figures are a little bit hard to comprehend, 00:20:39.120 --> 00:20:41.319 so what I need to do is a practical experiment 00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:44.319 to show you just how mind-blowing the McLaren really is. 00:20:44.560 --> 00:20:46.919 This is an Audi A4 S Line, 00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:49.159 the kind of car that typically flashes you to get out of the way 00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:50.799 of the fast lane on a motorway. 00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:52.279 It's a tidy little car. 00:20:52.360 --> 00:20:54.719 What I'm gonna do is accelerate from 0 to 60, 00:20:54.800 --> 00:20:56.959 and back to 0 as fast as I can, 00:20:57.120 --> 00:21:00.439 and I'll jump in the 650S and we'll compare the difference. 00:21:00.760 --> 00:21:02.519 So, into sport mode. 00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:04.399 Off we go. 00:21:08.360 --> 00:21:10.839 Here we go it's 40, 50... 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:13.599 And 60! 00:21:15.760 --> 00:21:18.359 Ah, pretty good for German engineering. 00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:19.999 Very impressive braking. 00:21:20.360 --> 00:21:23.399 Now, it's time to hop in the McLaren and see the difference. 00:21:31.360 --> 00:21:32.639 Now, in the Audi, that launch 00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:35.799 was similar to a sort of fast getaway from the traffic lights. 00:21:35.880 --> 00:21:39.119 But in the McLaren, when this launches, its gonna be like a space shuttle. 00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:42.319 Apollo 13. No, Interstellar is a better example. 00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:46.639 So, get it into D, set the launch control on. 00:21:46.800 --> 00:21:49.759 OK, so it's ready. All I have to do is floor it. 00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:51.839 And the turbo spools up, it's ready, 00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:54.119 and I just dump the brake and we're off! 00:21:56.760 --> 00:21:57.759 60. 00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:00.119 Oh, the braking, blimey. 00:22:00.560 --> 00:22:03.119 Literally, you're peeling the back of your head off the chair, 00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:06.199 and the next thing is you're tying to keep your nose off the dashboard. 00:22:06.360 --> 00:22:09.519 And the distance compared to the Audi, this is half the space. 00:22:09.600 --> 00:22:12.479 0 to 60, back to naught in hardly any space at all. 00:22:15.040 --> 00:22:17.439 The McLaren certainly has the straight line speed 00:22:17.560 --> 00:22:19.279 to escape an aerial threat. 00:22:19.600 --> 00:22:22.359 But, does it have the maneuverability I need as well? 00:22:25.800 --> 00:22:28.359 A striking feature of this car is the aerodynamics. 00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:31.719 Of course, McLaren calls it the Active Aero. 00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:35.759 Get on the brakes, it pops up like a barn door, 00:22:35.920 --> 00:22:40.559 acting as an air brake and stabilizing the car with extra downforce 00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:44.559 to push the rear into the deck and give you maximum braking force. 00:22:45.280 --> 00:22:50.039 It's like having an R2-D2 on your shoulder, setting X Foils into attack position. 00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:51.639 Really incredible. 00:22:51.840 --> 00:22:54.719 And it gives you the confidence to attack these corners. 00:23:07.320 --> 00:23:11.039 At the heart of this ship is an ultra lightweight V8 engine, 00:23:11.120 --> 00:23:13.959 powered with two turbochargers. 00:23:14.120 --> 00:23:16.239 You just hear those spooling up behind you, 00:23:16.320 --> 00:23:19.359 there's this beautiful whistling sound when you lay down the power. 00:23:22.040 --> 00:23:27.079 This car only takes 5.7 seconds to reach 100 miles an hour. 00:23:27.320 --> 00:23:29.159 It's ridiculously fast. 00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:33.559 The supercars of yesteryear took that long to get from 0 to 60. 00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:42.959 That engine just keeps on pushing this car all the way up to 207 miles an hour. 00:23:43.040 --> 00:23:44.799 So I love it. 00:23:49.360 --> 00:23:51.199 It seems to be almost unbreakable. 00:23:51.320 --> 00:23:54.279 Of course the question is, will it be good enough for Bary? 00:23:54.360 --> 00:23:58.054 Well, stopping power is, well, unbelievable, 00:23:58.080 --> 00:24:00.624 acceleration, yep, phenomenal. 00:24:01.280 --> 00:24:03.679 Handling-wise, it's totally out of this world. 00:24:07.520 --> 00:24:10.159 I think the other thing to think about is, uh, off road. 00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:11.999 Hmm, that could be interesting. 00:24:20.360 --> 00:24:23.559 Right, now, there's an off-road course around here somewhere. 00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:27.999 Here we go. Bit of a ski jump. Let's give this a ty. 00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:29.879 Whoa, there's some nasty gravel. 00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:31.719 Don't want to chip the paint on this baby. 00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:34.799 And I don't want the dust going in the air intake either. 00:24:35.360 --> 00:24:38.599 The ride height on the McLaren is not exactly high. 00:24:39.520 --> 00:24:41.959 There's a bit of a dip, let's have a... Whoa! 00:24:42.320 --> 00:24:44.639 Oh, oh... 00:24:44.800 --> 00:24:45.879 Well, that's enough. 00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:49.319 That's going to rip the splitter off. Right, I can't get over that. 00:24:51.320 --> 00:24:52.799 As painful as it is to admit, 00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:57.119 the McLaren 650S may not be the ideal tool for off-roading. 00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:00.279 So, I think this is going to have to come off the menu. 00:25:04.560 --> 00:25:07.719 Sorry, baby, let's get you back off here. 00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:17.599 What an amazing car. 00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:20.839 The McLaren is just a feat of engineering and design. 00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:24.599 It's as good as anything I've ever driven in terms of balance and performance. 00:25:24.760 --> 00:25:27.119 And if this chase sequence was purely on the road, 00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:30.239 with no evasive maneuveres or hand brake turns, 00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:32.239 the 650S would be my choice. 00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.959 But I think I need something with just a bit more all-round capability. 00:25:37.080 --> 00:25:39.199 In fact, I think if I drove it up on to the set, 00:25:39.280 --> 00:25:42.119 Bary would probably kill me, and then he'd steal the keys. 00:25:45.080 --> 00:25:49.119 The thing that is starting to nag me a bit, though, is this aerial attack business. 00:25:49.280 --> 00:25:53.079 I really haven't got a clue what I'm up against or how to evade it. 00:25:53.360 --> 00:25:56.199 I think I'm gonna have to do some serious research. 00:26:15.600 --> 00:26:19.159 This is the Extra 300 aerobatic stunt plane. 00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:25.559 Powered by a 300 brake horsepower engine, 00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:29.639 it has a top speed in excess of 250 miles per hour. 00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:35.359 But it's the sheer maneuverability 00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:39.959 and handling of this thing that makes it the F1 car of air race planes. 00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:51.919 And this one has been fitted with two seats. 00:26:52.520 --> 00:26:55.039 I think you can probably see where this is going. 00:26:59.120 --> 00:27:00.439 My wingman for the day 00:27:00.520 --> 00:27:03.679 is former RAF fast jet pilot Mark Greenfield. 00:27:04.800 --> 00:27:07.679 With over 20 years of aerobatics coaching under his belt, 00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:12.159 including a stint running the world-famous Empire Test Pilot school, 00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:14.039 he's a real-life top gun. 00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:21.799 - Are you ready? - I'm ready. Let's do it. 00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:23.119 OK, power's coming on. 00:27:32.120 --> 00:27:33.199 So, that's us airborne. 00:27:34.080 --> 00:27:35.519 That did not take long, did it? 00:27:35.640 --> 00:27:36.919 No, not at all. 00:27:39.480 --> 00:27:43.519 Once airborne, Mark doesn't hesitate to show me what the plane can do. 00:27:47.520 --> 00:27:48.559 Ah... 00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:51.239 I hate you already. 00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:58.279 Well, I admit I was, uh... 00:27:58.400 --> 00:28:01.959 Obviously the whole reason of coming up here is to ty and gauge 00:28:02.080 --> 00:28:05.239 how I'm going to fare in a car against something in the air. 00:28:05.640 --> 00:28:08.919 And, uh, I'm not sure if I'm feeling as confident after that. 00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:14.479 And things generally got worse from there. 00:28:17.840 --> 00:28:18.839 Oh, my God. 00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:21.679 I don't know what just happened, but I'm glad that it's over. 00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:27.959 I was starting to realise I could be in serious trouble. 00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:32.319 But, the whole thing with a car is that I can stop, whereas you can't. 00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:34.879 Well, it depends what you mean by stopping. 00:28:35.160 --> 00:28:38.399 If you can brace yourself and I'll show you how we'll stop 00:28:38.480 --> 00:28:40.439 relative to the ground in three seconds. 00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:42.439 I don't know if I'm gonna like this. 00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:49.759 OK, so that's effectively a right angle turn there. 00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:51.799 - Yeah. - And so, the movement 00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:55.879 over the ground was... uh, pretty much 0. 00:28:58.240 --> 00:29:00.719 I just feel like you've got a whole range of tools 00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:03.119 with which to punish me while we're up here, and... 00:29:03.280 --> 00:29:06.559 I don't think that I did anything to you in a former life to justify that. 00:29:08.920 --> 00:29:13.439 As it turned out, though, Mark had been saving the best until last. 00:29:16.480 --> 00:29:19.679 The Cravat, a highly-dangerous aerobatic maneuvere 00:29:19.760 --> 00:29:21.999 which sends the plane into a wild spin, 00:29:22.080 --> 00:29:26.439 twisting around and around in the vertical whilst tumbling at the same time. 00:29:29.560 --> 00:29:32.999 OK, so, we're gonna pull up gently into the vertical, 00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:35.159 and we're about to go direct... 00:29:47.520 --> 00:29:48.759 How was that? 00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:51.239 I think, what you've done there is, 00:29:52.040 --> 00:29:54.999 you've taken a boy's dream and you've turned that into a nightmare. 00:29:56.800 --> 00:29:58.279 I have your best interests at heart, 00:29:58.360 --> 00:30:02.599 but I do want to make sure you understand the capabilities of an aeroplane. 00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:11.039 Mark's demonstration has proven to me 00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:13.799 just how formidable this aerial attack might be. 00:30:14.120 --> 00:30:17.159 If we reverse the roles, and you had to choose a car 00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:19.359 to get away from an aeroplane, what would you choose? 00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:22.559 Well, I'd want something that is very maneuverable 00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:25.479 and very agile and tight turning circle would be good. 00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:30.479 Lots of power and something that's camouflaged to match its surroundings. 00:30:31.760 --> 00:30:33.759 Next, Mark decided to show me 00:30:33.840 --> 00:30:37.559 how devastating a strafing run would be at 250 miles per hour. 00:30:38.080 --> 00:30:40.319 Here we go, rolling in. 00:30:41.520 --> 00:30:44.559 Wow, that's amazing, when you see the ground open up like that. 00:30:49.600 --> 00:30:50.599 This is quite low! 00:31:00.840 --> 00:31:04.799 There's just no denying it. A plane is faster, more agile 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:07.599 and more lethal than I could ever have imagined. 00:31:10.560 --> 00:31:14.599 If Mark had been hunting me in the plane, I would have had nowhere to hide. 00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:19.440 Well, thank you very much. 00:31:19.520 --> 00:31:22.319 I think I've learned all I need to know about... 00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:25.679 An acrobatic, aerobatic wizard like yourself. 00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:27.919 So, I hope I never meet you again. 00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:30.879 Cos if you're working for the other side, I'm in deep trouble. 00:31:31.120 --> 00:31:32.119 Oh... 00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:36.879 The ground is still moving under my feet. 00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:39.359 - You're a horrible, horrible man. - Lt might do that for a little while. 00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:42.839 Yeah, I'm not doing that again. 00:31:46.880 --> 00:31:49.319 You have one new message. 00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:56.319 Ben, I hired you to find me a car, not a damn plane. 00:31:56.800 --> 00:32:01.199 Stop trying to second-guess me. That just makes me angry. 00:32:01.280 --> 00:32:04.799 And trust me, you do not want that. 00:32:13.800 --> 00:32:15.799 As unpleasant as that experience was, 00:32:16.120 --> 00:32:19.519 it has given me some idea of what I might be facing out there. 00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:22.000 But I need to get on with this because the clock is ticking. 00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:25.159 And it's not helping me with Bary's anger management issues. 00:32:26.360 --> 00:32:30.479 Now, the stunt plane has given me an idea about the type of car I might want to choose. 00:32:30.560 --> 00:32:33.159 I've got one in mind now for the underground scene 00:32:33.240 --> 00:32:36.599 that could fit the bill and just about give my attackers the slip. 00:32:53.520 --> 00:32:56.262 It's 6:30 in the morning and, as instructed, 00:32:56.288 --> 00:32:58.664 I've arrived on foot at this dockside, 00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:02.519 where, apparently, I'll be met by someone, hopefully. 00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:19.599 And that someone is Michelle Westby, 00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:23.039 a Drift Cup Competitor, and my guide into the world of drifting, 00:33:23.120 --> 00:33:25.679 the motorsport that's taking the world by storm. 00:33:28.040 --> 00:33:29.479 - Hi, Michelle. That's mega. - Hi. 00:33:29.560 --> 00:33:30.919 - Thank you. - It's a great location... 00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:33.999 And great big space.

Brilliant. 00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:46.719 Shane. Looks like a biter. So... 00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:49.159 But we will tangle later, me and you. 00:34:49.240 --> 00:34:51.599 Teach you some manners, boy. Oh, yeah. 00:35:02.200 --> 00:35:04.919 Although my day job involves quite a lot of drifting, 00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:06.439 I've never done it competitively. 00:35:06.520 --> 00:35:08.839 So I need to know what the judges are looking for. 00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:13.839 That's mega. And what kind of things are you doing 00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:17.119 to sort of, like, unseat the other driver, cos you're in attack mode. 00:35:17.200 --> 00:35:20.319 You're both in a tandem drift and it's judged by a pair of judges. 00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:21.479 So what are they looking for? 00:35:21.560 --> 00:35:24.519 Well, they are looking for general speed around the course. 00:35:24.600 --> 00:35:25.600 - It's not a race. - Yeah. 00:35:25.680 --> 00:35:29.519 But they do like to see you going through the course as fast as you possibly can. 00:35:34.200 --> 00:35:36.359 So speed is important, so it's not all about sliding. 00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:37.759 It's not all about sliding. 00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:41.679 It's controlling the power and getting that power to the ground... 00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:45.199 Yes, you're spinning the wheels, but you want to be constantly moving forward. 00:35:48.280 --> 00:35:51.401 And what about Shane, then? Do you know any tricks to making him uncomfortable? 00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:55.199 - If you go in and you're on his door... - Yeah. 00:35:55.280 --> 00:35:59.279 He'll know you mean business. And I think that could take the win. 00:36:05.160 --> 00:36:07.119 - That's mega. Very cool. - Yeah. 00:36:07.200 --> 00:36:11.159 Now, when I do this with Shane, can I tap him out the way, knock him off? 00:36:11.240 --> 00:36:13.679 Don't crash into him, judges don't like that... 00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:15.159 - But you can rub him... - Ls it against the rules? 00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:16.839 - Against the rules. - It's not against my rules. 00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:18.399 I do it all the time on the track. 00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:19.559 - Really? - Yeah. 00:36:19.640 --> 00:36:21.319 All right, all right. So, I have to do it fair and square, 00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:23.639 loads of grip, loads of speed and ty and intimidate him. 00:36:23.720 --> 00:36:26.439 Yeah, get as close as you can, but don't hit him. 00:36:26.520 --> 00:36:27.799 All right. 00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:32.159 With the demonstration over, it's time to take the wheel. 00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:49.839 Well, I don't know how many points I'm going to get for style, 00:36:50.200 --> 00:36:52.439 but I'm just about making it around this course. 00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:56.679 But I don't feel I'm doing it quite as neatly as Smokey. 00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:02.199 Quayside, loads of toys. 00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:14.559 This car is just so drivable, it's unreal. 00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:19.599 It feels like you can just kick this thing anywhere. 00:37:23.240 --> 00:37:26.959 550 horsepower, it's just so precise. 00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:34.999 You can see why they tune these cars so specifically for drifting. 00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:37.559 Everything is just perfectly tuned, 00:37:39.440 --> 00:37:40.999 but I can't stop sliding. 00:37:43.520 --> 00:37:47.119 This doesn't feel very fast, but it does feel spectacular. 00:37:47.600 --> 00:37:49.399 Does feel like I could take it anywhere, 00:37:49.600 --> 00:37:51.919 maybe even under that truck, give it a go. 00:37:56.280 --> 00:37:57.319 Impressive. 00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:01.039 This could be the baby. 00:38:02.120 --> 00:38:05.719 It's definitely the most fun car I have ever driven, without a doubt. 00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:09.999 Loads of power, super precise, I'm sold. 00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:15.799 - Is that all right? - That'll do. 00:38:16.000 --> 00:38:19.039 Let's take him on, man. I'm gonna take Shane down the town. 00:38:19.120 --> 00:38:20.319 - I think you can do it. - You reckon? 00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:21.799 - Yeah. - Really? 00:38:22.720 --> 00:38:24.559 I think it's different with one than with two, isn't it? 00:38:24.640 --> 00:38:26.279 - Yeah, it's a little bit different. - All right. 00:38:26.360 --> 00:38:27.719 - We'll see how you get on. - Fair enough. 00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:29.999 - Where is he? That way? - Over there. 00:38:30.080 --> 00:38:31.399 Mystery man. 00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:48.439 Guys. Shane, you're to lead. 00:38:48.520 --> 00:38:51.879 Ben, you must follow as close to Shane's rear quarter as possible. 00:38:52.520 --> 00:38:54.759 Shane, you ready? Ben, you ready? 00:38:55.880 --> 00:38:57.439 Go! 00:39:19.560 --> 00:39:23.519 Just when our epic battle was heating up, disaster struck. 00:39:24.080 --> 00:39:28.879 Shane's super charger on his modified Nissan 370Z disintegrated, 00:39:29.400 --> 00:39:34.079 resulting in catastrophic engine failure, bringing our competition to an end. 00:39:39.720 --> 00:39:44.559 It was just as well, really, because my Silvia wasn't sounding too clever either. 00:39:53.360 --> 00:39:57.639 Broken the diff. Mind you, my pain is not as bad as Shane's. 00:39:58.560 --> 00:40:02.519 This looks like a super charger belt, another piece here. 00:40:02.640 --> 00:40:04.639 We could ty and knit this together, mate. 00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:07.399 That would make a lovely paperweight. 00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:10.519 Technically... What about that? 00:40:10.600 --> 00:40:11.760 That's default win, isn't it? 00:40:11.880 --> 00:40:13.759 - No. - His breakage is worse than mine. 00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:15.319 - No. - What do you mean "no"? 00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:16.961 Do these things really break this often? 00:40:17.120 --> 00:40:19.119 They do, unfortunately. That's why we cary spares. 00:40:19.200 --> 00:40:20.959 Spares... What do you mean "spares"? 00:40:21.040 --> 00:40:22.919 Spares? 00:40:24.840 --> 00:40:27.879 Bary hasn't got time for spares. Where's he going? 00:40:29.240 --> 00:40:33.839 These things are very unreliable, clearly. And that's not gonna work well. 00:40:33.920 --> 00:40:36.279 They're also quite slow, because... 00:40:36.360 --> 00:40:38.439 It's great, their drifting, they're amazing, they're spectacular 00:40:38.520 --> 00:40:40.719 but you're going sideways, you're not going forwards that quickly. 00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:42.319 Top speed, 80 miles an hour... 00:40:42.640 --> 00:40:47.599 Where is he... Where am I supposed to go? Broken car. I'll follow him. 00:40:55.240 --> 00:40:57.799 That came close, but no cigar. 00:40:57.880 --> 00:40:59.879 The drift car made all the right noises, 00:41:00.040 --> 00:41:02.519 but with that lack of top speed and dodgy reliability, 00:41:02.880 --> 00:41:04.199 I'd just be dead meat. 00:41:07.200 --> 00:41:09.039 Adding some heat to the situation 00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:11.479 is the abusive messages I'm getting on my phone 00:41:11.560 --> 00:41:13.639 from Bary, and the elephant in the room 00:41:13.720 --> 00:41:19.279 is the small matter of finding a car that actually can go fast off-road. 00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:21.639 It's time to head west. 00:41:37.320 --> 00:41:40.159 Hidden deep within a rural valley in mid-Wales 00:41:40.240 --> 00:41:43.679 lies over 10 miles of demanding off-road track, 00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:46.559 a network of punishing gravel roads, 00:41:46.640 --> 00:41:49.719 which makes the perfect testing ground for this... 00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:55.159 The Ariel Nomad, 00:41:55.360 --> 00:41:57.999 an insane creation that wouldn't look out of place 00:41:58.080 --> 00:42:00.039 on the set of a Mad Max movie. 00:42:00.520 --> 00:42:03.519 Ten years in the making, this is the latest offering 00:42:03.600 --> 00:42:05.719 from track day heroes, Ariel, 00:42:05.800 --> 00:42:09.279 famous for their road-based rocket ship, the Atom. 00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:13.159 This machine is their idea of what an off-road vehicle should be, 00:42:13.240 --> 00:42:15.319 and it might just fit the bill. 00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:21.239 Ariel will say that this car will accelerate from 0 to 60 miles an hour 00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:23.439 in just 3.4 seconds. 00:42:23.560 --> 00:42:25.799 Now, that's Ferrari Enzo territory, 00:42:25.880 --> 00:42:30.759 and if that's the case, these baddy soldier people are in for some serious trouble. 00:42:38.720 --> 00:42:39.719 That's first. 00:42:41.560 --> 00:42:45.079 And that's second, and that's straight to 62 miles an hour. 00:42:47.040 --> 00:42:49.719 Like me, you're probably wondering how the hell it does that. 00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:51.639 Well, it's not doing it with brute force, 00:42:51.720 --> 00:42:55.719 because this engine only pops out 235 horsepower, 00:42:55.800 --> 00:42:57.679 which is practically a lawnmower. 00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:03.559 Powered by a 2.4 litre Honda engine, 00:43:04.120 --> 00:43:06.439 and it doesn't have a supercharger or a turbo. 00:43:06.520 --> 00:43:09.159 It's just good, old-fashioned torque. 00:43:12.080 --> 00:43:15.799 The beauty of it is in the power-to-weight ratio, 00:43:15.920 --> 00:43:19.279 because the car only weighs 570 kilograms, 00:43:20.000 --> 00:43:22.639 which is about half a Ford Focus. 00:43:26.640 --> 00:43:30.159 65% of that weight is over the rear axle, 00:43:30.240 --> 00:43:33.759 where you need it for traction because this is rear-wheel-drive only. 00:43:34.280 --> 00:43:36.999 I really thought that would kill the steering, 00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:38.639 but it doesn't. 00:43:38.720 --> 00:43:40.159 This thing is so agile, 00:43:40.240 --> 00:43:43.279 and just fires you out of these corners, it's ridiculous. 00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:59.759 Part of the grip story is from these three-way adjustable dampers, 00:43:59.840 --> 00:44:01.839 and these amazing all-terrain tyres, 00:44:01.920 --> 00:44:05.079 that just eat the landscape and spit it out the back. 00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:06.919 Whoo! 00:44:28.240 --> 00:44:30.999 It's almost easy to forget why I came here in the first place, 00:44:31.080 --> 00:44:33.399 which is to assess whether this baby 00:44:33.480 --> 00:44:37.199 has got what it takes to escape an aerial assault. 00:44:37.640 --> 00:44:41.959 In terms of sheer straight line speed, 136 miles an hour... 00:44:42.040 --> 00:44:44.119 OK, it's not the fastest thing in the world, 00:44:44.200 --> 00:44:48.319 but you could pretty much drive over anything at 80 miles an hour. 00:44:49.520 --> 00:44:51.039 The thing that lets it down though, 00:44:51.120 --> 00:44:53.599 there's just nothing protecting the car's vital parts. 00:44:53.680 --> 00:44:56.559 The engine is just covered in the same plastic they use 00:44:56.640 --> 00:45:00.039 to build traffic cones. It's hardly bulletproof. 00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:03.519 And I'm expecting some serious flak from the sky. 00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:08.439 It's with a very heavy heart, 00:45:08.520 --> 00:45:10.359 but I'm gonna have to say no to the Nomad. 00:45:10.440 --> 00:45:14.159 However, I've got one more supercar from the off-road world 00:45:14.240 --> 00:45:16.159 that might just do the job. 00:45:17.560 --> 00:45:19.879 This, as you can probably tell, is a Mini, 00:45:20.040 --> 00:45:23.719 but it couldn't be further away from the run-of-mill estate agent chariot 00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:25.559 you see every day in the High Street. 00:45:27.280 --> 00:45:30.519 This one competes in the World Rally Cross Championship, 00:45:30.600 --> 00:45:33.799 one of the roughest and toughest race series on the planet. 00:45:38.920 --> 00:45:41.679 OK, it's time to unleash the fury of this baby. 00:45:41.760 --> 00:45:43.759 There's quite a complicated launch procedure. 00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:46.399 I've got to hold of my finger over the launch button. 00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:49.879 OK, I've got first gear, gonna turn the anti-lag on. 00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:52.479 There we go, I can already feel the power surge. 00:45:52.560 --> 00:45:54.199 Here we go. 00:45:56.240 --> 00:45:59.159 Oh, my God, it's unbelievable power. 00:46:02.080 --> 00:46:04.879 The kick in the back you get is like from a Formula 1 car, 00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:07.799 that does 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds, 00:46:07.880 --> 00:46:11.119 up to 100 in five. Absolutely ridiculous. 00:46:12.720 --> 00:46:16.559 This model was originally designed for the World Rally Championship, 00:46:16.640 --> 00:46:21.239 but then they added an enormous turbo so big... 00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:22.879 Whoa! 00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:24.439 They had to give it a name. 00:46:24.520 --> 00:46:28.439 Its name is Gerrard, and when Gerrard gets angry, 00:46:28.520 --> 00:46:30.119 you go very, very fast. 00:46:39.560 --> 00:46:42.279 It kicks out 500 horsepower, 00:46:42.360 --> 00:46:44.039 which is twice the Nomad had, 00:46:44.120 --> 00:46:46.679 lancing itself very neatly 00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:50.079 through this four-wheel-drive system, 00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:52.639 just hammering me down this road. 00:46:56.320 --> 00:46:57.319 Whoo! 00:46:59.960 --> 00:47:02.079 It's also got this wonderful handbrake, 00:47:02.160 --> 00:47:03.799 which has rear diff release, 00:47:03.880 --> 00:47:07.359 which I admit, sounds like some kind of bowel control problem. 00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:10.159 What it allows me to do is 00:47:10.240 --> 00:47:12.639 lock up the rear wheels whilst applying the power 00:47:12.720 --> 00:47:16.079 and just trim the nose of the car into the corner 00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:19.439 whilst accelerating, and it's just incredible. 00:47:22.640 --> 00:47:27.319 I'm very reassured by the fact that this car is covered in Kevlar, 00:47:27.400 --> 00:47:29.879 the stuff they make bulletproof jackets from. 00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:32.119 There's a whole shield in front of the engine bay 00:47:33.000 --> 00:47:34.200 and in the rear quarter panels, 00:47:34.240 --> 00:47:38.279 so if I do come under fire, I've got some pretty good protection there. 00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:44.359 I've got a good feeling about this Mini. I think this is the one. 00:47:44.440 --> 00:47:48.439 Oh, hang on a minute. Team are calling me in. 00:47:59.840 --> 00:48:02.159 That was awesome. Thank you so much. 00:48:02.240 --> 00:48:04.159 - Is everything ok? - No, we need to refuel. 00:48:05.600 --> 00:48:07.759 What, did you half fill it or something, or was that a full tank? 00:48:07.880 --> 00:48:09.559 - That is a full tank. - You serious? 00:48:09.640 --> 00:48:10.639 I'm serious. 00:48:11.800 --> 00:48:14.400 Well, five minutes isn't going to cut a car chase. There's no way. 00:48:14.560 --> 00:48:16.039 This car had everything I wanted, 00:48:16.120 --> 00:48:18.679 and now I've got to start completely from scratch. 00:48:19.240 --> 00:48:20.239 Ugh! 00:48:31.160 --> 00:48:32.159 Hi, Bary. 00:48:32.240 --> 00:48:35.119 Ben, don't mention names over a cellular phone! 00:48:35.680 --> 00:48:38.479 And you know why I'm calling. Have you found me a car? 00:48:38.800 --> 00:48:40.239 Uh, no, not quite. 00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:42.879 What do you mean, "Not quite"? 00:48:43.240 --> 00:48:47.079 Well, I've tested some amazing stuff but nothing that's quite right for the job. 00:48:47.160 --> 00:48:52.319 You really need to sort this. Fourteen hours, find me that car! 00:48:52.400 --> 00:48:54.359 I will, I promise. I've got a plan. 00:48:55.600 --> 00:48:57.759 Bary... Hello? 00:48:58.560 --> 00:49:00.439 Bye... Bye, Bary. 00:49:00.520 --> 00:49:02.039 Thanks for calling. 00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:25.719 Here are the final four cars I'm assessing for this mission. 00:49:25.800 --> 00:49:27.919 And to help me make the big decision, 00:49:29.200 --> 00:49:33.039 I've brought in stunt driving heavyweight, Martin Ivanov, 00:49:34.080 --> 00:49:36.119 known as "the Russian." 00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:41.559 A multiple-award-winning stunt performer and driver, 00:49:41.680 --> 00:49:43.679 we met on the set of Quantum of Solace, 00:49:43.760 --> 00:49:46.839 and he's the one man I trust when it comes to a car chase. 00:49:49.240 --> 00:49:51.759 Martin, thanks for coming all the way from Moscow to test these cars out. 00:49:51.840 --> 00:49:52.839 You know the brief. 00:49:52.920 --> 00:49:55.119 The first one we've got is the Audi S8, 00:49:55.440 --> 00:49:57.200 and it should be good because it's, you know, 00:49:57.280 --> 00:49:58.919 a true action movie favourite. 00:49:59.000 --> 00:50:01.759 Yeah, perfect, this is the car. No more searching needed. 00:50:01.840 --> 00:50:04.159 OK, great, that's good confidence 00:50:04.240 --> 00:50:07.399 but we have got more in the car park, so, this is just one of the four. 00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:09.319 No, no, no, no. This is the car. 00:50:11.080 --> 00:50:15.559 Now, to settle this argument, we need to get out on the track. 00:50:23.680 --> 00:50:25.599 The amazing thing with this car is when you get into it, 00:50:25.680 --> 00:50:29.999 it feels really big, it's like being in a tank but it's so fast with it. 00:50:33.840 --> 00:50:37.159 It's got twin-turbocharged, V8 engine, 520 horsepower. 00:50:39.680 --> 00:50:40.759 And because it's Quattro, 00:50:40.840 --> 00:50:42.759 I thinks it's gonna be almost as good off-road 00:50:42.840 --> 00:50:44.479 as putting its power down on the tarmac. 00:50:44.560 --> 00:50:47.799 So I think you've got a point. This could be a fantastic car. 00:50:51.800 --> 00:50:53.399 But we are gonna test some more cars 00:50:53.480 --> 00:50:56.359 because I still think one of those ones in the garage 00:50:56.440 --> 00:50:57.759 could be better than this one. 00:50:57.840 --> 00:50:58.919 Yeah. Let's see. 00:51:09.400 --> 00:51:11.639 And here's the next contender. 00:51:13.360 --> 00:51:16.079 From super saloon to super car, 00:51:16.160 --> 00:51:18.679 this is the Noble M600. 00:51:20.760 --> 00:51:24.679 This could be a hero or a villain's car with its mean looks. 00:51:26.520 --> 00:51:29.919 But this beast is all about killer performance. 00:51:43.160 --> 00:51:46.959 Now, the reason I've chosen this Noble is because it delivers true performance 00:51:47.040 --> 00:51:49.359 in a very, very simple old-fashioned way 00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:51.879 and I'm talking as basic as horse and cart. 00:51:58.680 --> 00:52:02.759 It goes from 0 to 60 in three seconds, and just keeps going 00:52:02.840 --> 00:52:05.519 until you get to 225 miles per hour, 00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:09.399 which surely is enough to defeat anything by land, sea or air. 00:52:13.400 --> 00:52:17.599 I have to admit, aerodynamics are a little bit light on the Noble, 00:52:17.680 --> 00:52:19.679 which does make it quite skittish at high speed 00:52:19.760 --> 00:52:22.519 but it's also what makes it so fast. 00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:27.319 Just look what it's like in the corners. 00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:28.919 It's just balletic. 00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:33.319 And the harder you drive it, the more you get out of it. 00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:36.599 I love this car. I think this could be a winner. 00:52:40.600 --> 00:52:41.999 Release the Russian. 00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:47.279 I am coming. 00:52:57.040 --> 00:52:58.759 I almost feel sorry for Martin, 00:52:58.840 --> 00:53:01.239 in that I'm going to break his spirit right at the beginning 00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:05.119 because the advantage this car is pulling on the Audi is sizeable. 00:53:05.200 --> 00:53:06.239 It's killing it. 00:53:11.600 --> 00:53:15.199 The poise in these chicanes is where I really seem to break away from him. 00:53:15.720 --> 00:53:20.959 Martin's car is leaning heavily, blistering its front tyres no doubt, 00:53:21.040 --> 00:53:22.799 as it tries to keep up with the Noble. 00:53:25.960 --> 00:53:28.479 I'm sure he'll get over it on his flight home. 00:53:29.440 --> 00:53:30.439 Bye-bye, Martin. 00:53:40.720 --> 00:53:43.359 Ugh! So much for catching me, Martin. Where were you? 00:53:43.880 --> 00:53:44.879 This car is a joke. 00:53:45.280 --> 00:53:47.439 - What do you mean? - Look at the ground clearance. 00:53:48.360 --> 00:53:49.360 It's not that low, is it? 00:53:49.440 --> 00:53:51.599 Your chase will end at first speed bump. 00:53:52.240 --> 00:53:53.839 Well let's go ty another one then. Come on. 00:53:53.920 --> 00:53:55.399 - Yeah, let's do it. - Grumpy. 00:54:03.720 --> 00:54:06.039 Next is the Jaguar F-Type. 00:54:09.240 --> 00:54:13.119 A stunning GT, which is giving Aston Martin a run for its money. 00:54:15.480 --> 00:54:19.239 It certainly looks the part, but does it have it where it counts? 00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:36.159 This is the Jaguar F-Type S, a supercharged version of the V6 engine, 00:54:36.240 --> 00:54:39.999 knocking out 374 brake horsepower. 00:54:42.160 --> 00:54:44.879 It's got a shorter wheelbase than that massive Audi, 00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:48.599 which should give this the advantage in the off-road part of the chase, 00:54:48.680 --> 00:54:52.399 and it's got some ground clearance, which was the Achilles heel for the Noble. 00:54:52.480 --> 00:54:54.759 So, this has got to be a strong candidate. 00:55:03.560 --> 00:55:05.559 Now, unbelievably, in terms of acceleration, 00:55:05.640 --> 00:55:08.559 the Audi actually has the edge over this Jag, 00:55:08.720 --> 00:55:10.679 but this has longer legs, 00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:13.399 and it can stretch them to 171 miles an hour. 00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:17.759 And it's great at drifting. 00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:22.759 Which means I can throw loads of smoke in the face of my would-be pursuers. 00:55:25.320 --> 00:55:28.119 It's just so much fun, this car. Ahhh! 00:55:31.680 --> 00:55:33.039 Release the Russian. 00:55:41.680 --> 00:55:42.959 Come to papa. 00:55:46.760 --> 00:55:49.599 It's much, much more evenly-matched this time. 00:55:52.200 --> 00:55:56.359 I've got a little bit more pick-up and traction, just coming out of the corners 00:55:56.440 --> 00:56:00.199 but as soon as we get on these straights, he is closing right up on me. 00:56:00.640 --> 00:56:02.079 This does not bode well. 00:56:04.520 --> 00:56:08.759 Let's ty the old smoking-tyre maneuvere and see if I can push him back a little bit. 00:56:10.960 --> 00:56:12.359 Come on, Jag! 00:56:12.440 --> 00:56:15.679 I've got my foot to the floor. I can't stop him. 00:56:15.760 --> 00:56:17.679 Ahhh, Martin! 00:56:24.800 --> 00:56:26.079 Oh, I thought you'd be smug. 00:56:26.160 --> 00:56:27.959 - Victory! - I know what you're gonna say. 00:56:28.080 --> 00:56:30.519 I mean, you kind of won, but only in the straight bit. 00:56:30.640 --> 00:56:33.759 - This is still a good car. - But I won. 00:56:34.480 --> 00:56:37.719 - All right, well, I've got one more, yeah? - Yeah, your last chance. 00:56:38.120 --> 00:56:39.279 Yeah, you're so tough. 00:56:42.440 --> 00:56:44.559 I've saved the best till last. 00:56:44.640 --> 00:56:48.479 The BMW M3 is a legend of Teutonic performance. 00:56:48.720 --> 00:56:50.999 The M3 has been trouncing its rivals, 00:56:51.080 --> 00:56:54.519 on and off the race track, for nearly four decades, 00:56:54.600 --> 00:56:57.119 but is it the all-rounder I need? 00:57:08.160 --> 00:57:13.559 Now this is BMW's brand new M3, the pinnacle of German engineering, 00:57:13.640 --> 00:57:15.679 a car that even Martin would approve of. 00:57:18.920 --> 00:57:21.599 BMW have given this M3 a brand new engine. 00:57:21.680 --> 00:57:26.239 They ditched the V8 for a lighter straight 6 turbocharged unit, 00:57:26.680 --> 00:57:29.879 firing out 425 horsepower. 00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:31.359 It's an incredible car to drive. 00:57:31.440 --> 00:57:33.599 You've got so much control under your right foot. 00:57:36.480 --> 00:57:38.039 Fantastic cornering. 00:57:41.000 --> 00:57:45.719 And you can still drive it like an absolute hooligan when you want to. 00:57:48.120 --> 00:57:49.679 This car is great. 00:57:54.200 --> 00:57:55.519 Deploy the Russian. 00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:03.439 You don't know the power of dark side. 00:58:06.320 --> 00:58:09.559 Now, instantly, I get the feeling that we're much more closely-matched. 00:58:10.160 --> 00:58:13.599 Both these cars have got incredible poise through the corners. 00:58:14.800 --> 00:58:18.519 He's hanging on, but it's nothing like as deadly as it was with the Jag. 00:58:24.600 --> 00:58:28.839 Even in this big straight, the Audi, I can just see him closing in. 00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:30.519 Argh!
