Top Gear - Some Unseen Outtakes Part 4

[@csaunderson]

The exchange between Jeremy and James about the GTR is why I loved the show so much: I knew that the animus was scripted, but this shows that they genuinely get on.

[@Vinxvx]

Exactly... 1 of my fav clips too. that’s why you cant replace the 3... it just works perfectly...

[@patrickbourke2385]

I was just about to type the same thing before I saw your comment. Look at the way Jeremy is leant on the car and listen to the tone of his voice

[@sugarnads]

Its not animus. Its how mates talk in UK, Australia and New Zealand. When theyre being reeeally polite is when you know theyre boiling.

[@justforever96]

I mean they worked together for decades, I doubt they would have if they actually disliked each other. The other two left top Gear with Clarkson. The hate is just part of the act, if I thought they were actually sincere about it I would not enjoy watching it. I take is as buddies who like to banter with each other and give each other crap all the time, but actually do it as a sign of affection, not hatred.

[@Generalscorpio]

They wrote large parts of the script and I think it may have been semi-scripted in parts so they had to come up with some of it themselves.

[@g1sunstreaker584]

These between-shots moments are really my absolute favorite. No music, no cuts, no scripting, just watching some of my favorite people exist in their world that I will never be a part of. I could watch behind the scenes clips like this all day.

I feel like Top Gear would have been just as good if it was just Jeremy and James. Hammond feels like an awkward third wheel more often than not. He's only ten years younger than them, but acts young enough to be their son.

[@ThunderTHR]

Clarkson WANTED May on Top Gear when the show first returned in 2002, he knew from May's previous work just how good he would be as a presenter and entertainer. May initially turned down the offer because he didn't think the show would succeed initially (and had already been burnt out from presenting three other car shows, including a brief run in 1999 on the original Top Gear), but after Jason Dawe was let go by the BBC producers, Clarkson tried again (for Series 2) as he really wanted to make sure it WOULD succeed with May presentt, and the rest from there is history. The three just all had that chemistry when together, something that's very rare in a trio act, and something that the current Top Gear presenters (with all due respect) can't repeat.

I had one back in 2012/2013. Had it built with a custom colored frame. Blu Cepheus, to match the gallardo I had at the time. It also had the full carbon big front and rear wings and the supercharged engine. Took around 6 months to get it titled so I could drive it on the street. It really was an incredible experience owning one. But I have to say, driving it around town sucked. The brakes were the strangest thing to me. Felt like pushing against a wall. Like it literally felt like the pedal never moved....just sensed the pressure you were applying...which was like doing a leg press, every time you wanted to stop lol. Car was quick as hell, and handled amazingly. It's a memory I will always treasure.

Well it makes sense. Bodies are the had part to build. The driveline components bolt right in and can be mix and matched, but forming your own sheet metal is art. that is why offroaders build tube buggies when they aren't using ready-built trucks. Although I don't think either of the machines Hammond was featuring would look at all right in a Mad Max movie of any sort, especially not the X-Bow.

Isn't that an early GT-R that the transmission would blow up if you used the launch control too much?

It’s a 2012 GT-R, they adjusted the launch control for the 2010 model year to alleviate the issues, then again in 2011, and the 2012 version pretty much solved it entirely as far as I know. The transmission (DBA) is significantly more reliable and can handle multiple launches over a long period of time, provided you’re not launching it at every green light, but that’ll give almost any car problems eventually.
