Chris Harris on Cars | Goodwood 73rd Members Meeting Part 2

[@stephenmoore9642]

Tiff's cameo was the cherry on top of a brilliant video.

[@johanneswarn5488]

Tiff AND Chris harris in the same video = gold

[@BobMul]

Jonka Olofsson They would make a good top gear replacement combo. Some genuine car geeks.

[@burlatsdemontaigne6147]

Bob Mul Catchpole is a shoo-in.

[@taraf109]

Bob Mul Chris was a guest on one of the episodes of the latest series of Fifth Gear

[@psk1w1]

Mr Needle is more than a car geek, a professional race driver

[@MrManuel1329]

Thumbing loud V8s, Screaming i6 engines and Shouting i4 engine OMG this is just a treat to a gear-heads ears! I love it!

[@Jesskellya]

My goodness. Future generation are really going to miss out on something special when petroleum inevitably runs dry. I really enjoy this raw, hands-on footage. Props to your camera man on the sides, too.

[@zloychechen5150]

Jeston Aylen nah, there'll still be that for this. Neil is good, true) The only better option is a second Neil. There should probably be a kickstarter campaign to clone him, or maybe just find one more camera man.

[@J0lker]

Jeston Aylen I've heard it's one big scam about all that oil running out tho haha :D

[@zloychechen5150]

J0lker that's right, it's not gonna run out in foreseeable future, but the prices will steadily climb, unless a new saudi arabia is discovered every 10 years.

[@Samsgarden]

Jeston Aylen Petroleum ain't running dry. The U.S is having a renaissance in oil production.

[@AccAkut1987]

zloychechen5150 I guarantie you at the some point in the quiet near future we will establish ways of synthesizing "fossil" fuels. We can actually do it now, but prices are way to high (and the oil industry not really interested) Liquid fuels are just a great way of storing energy

[@SpacemanXC]

Nice job Chris! I loved the bit with Tiff at the end too. What a legend.

[@GranDaddo]

I think this was one of best videos in long time. Raw sound, enough of onboard videos, good comments and I really loved Tiff appearance. What a fantastic day it must have been and being 2nd with those people around you - priceless. Im more envy on your days like this than when you are testing.

[@tomasso911]

That was exactly what all motor racing should be about - roaring engines, lot of overtaking, poweslides and also a few crashes :) They should be showing this on the telly instead of Formula 1.

[@mr.hernandezdrives]

I was glued to this the entire race, marvelous piece of video. Motorsport is just what a man needs right??

[@pokinacha]

17:30 the way Chris looks out of shot you can just tell Tiff was being a nuisance in the way that only Tiff can. And then the way he wanders off muttering ‘I wish I had a miss fire’. Legend

[@Bumphuk]

Genuinely put a smile on my face! Especially the bit of banter with Tiffany at the end.

[@asthalis]

Lovely video and very clean driving... no time for drifting out there ! Well done for the final result, it was a pleasure to watch. Nice choice for music too.I love your "extraordinary human being" at the end of it ! Thanks for this !

[@johnT5]

More more more of these. Best vids you guys have put up. Love to watch these classics battle it out. Great driving...obviously.

[@MrPanohead]

Chris Ward has a beautiful, fluid driving style. The way he carries speed through the chicane is unbelievable (and the two wheels on the grass during overtaking quite ballsy.)

[@3storiesUp]

Looks like he's completely overdriving it to me ... making a huge deal out of overtaking back markers ... and driving onto the grass was idiotic.

[@supercharged5653]

@@3storiesUp bullshit. these older cars always tend to be at their fastest with a bit of slip, ward drove it beautifully

[@brendanayres7920]

Grass . . . . the OTHER track surface!

[@Kingsoupturbo]

Chris Ward is so good, such a relaxed style, like he was half asleep on that car, so fluid, great episode!

[@unotoli]

Just "wow".. First of all, what a relief - after so many "silly" tail drifts in reviews, watching a great drive! Second (to none) - these 20mins are worth of weekend of racing emotions! Brilliant work (as ever) by Neil Carey.. Thank you for sharing your love for cars!

[@TheArkDoc]

Goodwood is definitely a bucket-list event for me. The incredible mix of cars, the sounds, the legendary drivers, it's nirvana.

[@Miggy2j]

Trust Chris Harris to make a Rover V8 absolutely desirable. What an amazing piece of automotive journalistic art. I'm on an isolated Island in Northern Western Australia it took 2 hours to load this and it was completely worth it.

[@Dutub2000]

Chris Harris on Cars This and the previous Goodwood clip are hands down some of the best car-related material I've ever seen. Also really liked your Ford Falcon race at Spa and the Lister Jaguar video from the Revival, back when you worked for "that other channel".

[@szabiakanich]

Part 2 was even BETTER than the first part. What a fantastic video. Great stuff, Chris.

[@wortheffort]

brilliant editing

[@ytrabbithole6893]

wortheffort seriously though, neil is a mad man with video editing. so well covered, felt like I as there. Coupled with Chris harris' passion for cars, and driving abilities these guys are the best.

[@mariobianchi1909]

wortheffort Awesome vid. You can see the real racing spirit for the human side and for the mechanical one.

[@ThatMumboJumbo]

For the first time in my life, I want to buy a rover.

[@Kaktuskastl]

it's never too late...

[@danieldowd8205]

Mumbo Jumbo this is a very different kind of video compared to where I would expect to see you.

[@barryotoole6990]

Me too never thought id say that. But has to be V8 SDI

[@georgiamcdermott5140]

Rover made some utterly brilliant cars. Shame they're overshadowed by the rubbish they also pumped out every now and then.

[@TheTwilightBong]

My very first car was a 414 GSI Rover, and i absolutely loved it! Good looking car, confortable, lots of space to drive my friends in it, 101 BHP that were more than enough to go fast when i wanted to, and i never had any mechanical problem within the 5 years i had it.

[@DeBoswachter]

Holy cow, that was awesome!! Lovely shots that gave a great sense of the speed and skill, and what a sound! Incredible to watch, please more of this =D

[@akadanielmaia]

That Camaro sounds glorious.

[@Sturmovik1946]

Daniel Maia Sounds so raw, especially cool looking with the flames sputtering about the exhaust.

[@DocWolph]

***** I'll make an assumption you are talking about the Camaro... In the 70s at least a few Trans-Am teams wanted to swap the SLA with the IRS from the C2 Corvette. The C3 was too narrow I guess. But Cambered controlled Swing axles would be easily to parlay. But the Race judges disallowed it. Stupid move really. Anyway, I could see you doing that.

[@DocWolph]

***** You would not need to do that. Just look up C2 Corvette rear suspension. The Jaguar E-type looks roughly the same but is much less robust and has inboard brakes. When I said "swing axle" you might have pictures the VW Beetle (I don't know the year VW finally fixed that) or pre-1968 Chevy Corvair. Trust me when you actually look at this stuff you will understand , and a C2 rear end swap will be just fine.

[@DocWolph]

***** I would also be a matter of what actually fits. I can see a lot of rebuilding and modifications. and since you can built the C2 IRS from mod parts its not really a matter of what you can find. Also the moment you need to do any brake work you ware going to hate that Jaguar XJ rear end. Its the major reason why no one uses inboard brakes anymore. It's also not period or manufacture correct nor does it look at all as durable.. That said, its not MY money. You do what you want, just make sure you actually want to do it and want it done. Again do some searches and actually look first before going with the European thing because its European. The GM suspension is better for your GM. That's all. Anymore and it'll just get to be an ugly argument for nothing.

[@GODOFGUITAR2112]

***** Honestly there isn't really a difference in the actual car. I have a '79 and it is a wonderful car. The nice thing about the face-lifted ones is that they are much cheaper for basically the same car.

[@christianaugustin7047]

Awesome job as always. It'd be nice if Tiff returns to Top Gear. Better than anyone else imo.

[@allamericandude15]

Chris Harris and Tiff Needell. Same video. Same race. Internet broken. Automotive journalism complete. Go home everybody.

[@freakehh]

***** Tiff is awesome.

[@ethownzbh]

"I wish I had a misfire" tiff is the king of racing driver excuses haha the man is awesome

[@patpatterson2537]

Chris Harris appeared on a recent episode of fifth gear with tiff

[@PFNasz]

Pat Mccarron I missed that, must find it.

[@entrepreneur_journey7]

***** So true bro, lol

[@mhitchner]

This was amazing. Brilliant driving and videography. And having my two favorite automotive journalists in the frame at once was the icing on the cake. I hope to see more work with the two of you in the future.

[@DtotheAtotheNtotheI]

Feels like I watched a movie, just absolutely great! Thanks to the whole Team behind this channel!

[@BenBRogue]

This looks like a hell of a lot of fun! Was great to see Tiff show his cheeky mug at the end. Really enjoyed this, thanks Chris!

[@DavidKAnderson]

This is just so very good. Although I love the wonderful footage of so many legendary cars and (as always) Chris' commentary, the long, uninterrupted stretches of race footage were the standouts. Couldn't tear my eyes away.

[@seanxu8483]

much more fun than F1 nowadays.

[@charlestrauscht3587]

A noble pursuit of ones time. Well done Chris. Well done.

[@TheKizzyfish]

How is it that Chris's videos just keep getting better & more entertaining? CH + Tiff + Alex Goy = new TG gold!

[@cdogg86]

What an absolutely smash hit of an episode. You guys did such a great job to capturing the sounds and tense moments of live racing. Just spot on.

[@Zombiestig]

You guys make some of the best car videos. Great photography, just the right amount of voice over.

[@Bottspeed]

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant driving of both drivers. Fantastic video, one more time... need more of Goodwood now! Congratulations.

[@sjt959]

Excellent film as always, thank you. Just the best era of touring/saloon cars, mix of more power than grip - wonderful synchronised sliding at 5:15. The engine noise is all the commentary needed. Wish I still had any of my old SD1’s, especially the VDP EFi with its manual conversion.

[@wedge_one]

I clicked on the video before going to sleep, then marked to watch later but started to watch and couldn't stop. Amazing footage, visceral. Great driving of both Chris,

[@charliewolf7500]

Top fun and very impressive. Remember that many of these drivers and vehicles were the very pinnacle in their day, have mad skills, making the result even more impressive. Thank you for sharing.

[@Termz1988]

Just think we should should all say a big thanks to Chris, Neil, all the people involved...watt a great bit of entertainment. That v8 rover wow !! My grandad use to be a police driving instructor using those if my memory serves me. Keep bringing the awesome work big fan.

[@jonnyspeed]

I don't know what is more impressive... Your 2nd place in a Rover, that little Mini, or the fact that the fastest car out there was a 70's Camaro! LOL. It looked like a blast. Congrats.

[@theeoddments960]

Second gen camaros especially later ones had amazing suspensions it was really an opposite to the cars 15-20 years before it. Shitty engine good handling. In contrast to the monsters of the 60’s all motor no suspension. You can bet your ass he isn’t running a single oem part in that engine though.

[@AttilaSzabadkai]

one of the most enchanting racing videos i have ever seen - and i have probably watched far too many - this is beautiful on so many levels

[@lambosforusal]

This has to be one of the most enjoyable video's mister Harris has ever made! it's pure joy seeing all these old cars sliding and their drivers fighting at the wheel. it shows how clinical racing has become over the years, even touring cars. nevertheless an absolute terrific job and huge thumbs up to everyone who made this video possible, keep up the good work! greets from Holland

[@AriagaII]

Well done Chris(s). From memory you've always come close here, hopefully one year we can see you on the top step!

[@Baj64]

Pure sound, no music, just the comments needed, a great video again Mr. Harris !

[@MrMillenium67]

What a FANTATSTIC video! Epic racing by some amazing cars, by some amazing drivers. Loved every second of it. A very well done on a well earned and deserved 2nd place. Thanks you Chris, Chris and Neil!

[@themask706]

It looks easy enough watching from out side the car, but boy seeing the work from the inside and its wow! You guys are great.

[@crossphaded]

Superb work! On the track and filming this! You're killin it Chris Harris on Cars!

[@hdmk213]

Brilliant video guys - so many great camera angles and really well stitched together. Great racing too. Thank you! Great to see Needles at the end too, what a legend.

[@sunilsolanki]

Brilliant drives from the two Chris's. Loved all the movement of the cars into and out of the corners. Excellent work as always chaps.

[@einsikallin]

That was magnificent, whatever you do please don't stop making these wonderful videos !

[@corinful]

One of the best video's I've seen in ages! Awesome. I miss those days terribly.

[@christopherpennington2466]

Oh crap, this video made me realize that I am now old enough to say "Reminded me of being a young lad in the early 80's spending every weekend possible hanging out on the banks of Thruxton dreaming of one day being a racing driver. Racing today just isn't as good as it was in my day." And the path to old age is almost complete. Great video, thanks Chris and your team.

[@GT-gt4bf]

My God this was great! That beautiful black and green Camaro, the sound of that Rover, and the great Tiff! Like Chris would say, this was Mega!

[@sinimini]

A really fantastic video. Loved watching Chris Wards relaxed style. Thanks for the upload!

[@Skakhti]

God dammit Neil, what a magnificent operator you are...!

[@125AXer]

My lips are dry after nineteen minutes of nonstop grinning. THIS is what motor racing is truly about. Well done everyone!

[@ImLeuff]

Thank you for bringing us this amazing atmosphere and congratulations on the 2nd place! I've been following your work since the evo magazine days and man, you'll become a full-fledged race car driver if you carry on like this

[@ScottyCameron1231]

I wish modern cars sounded this good. Modern cars sound artificial compared to these classics. Great video Chris and great camerawork Neil!

[@JamesYoung61]

Another brilliant video Chris, Goodwood is such a good venue for making these type of videos and your ability to get a drive in a competitive car has to be the icing on the cake. Your drive in the Lister is still my favorite, but this one is right up there with it and I hope that Chris Ward gets a few more fans from his epic drive on your channel. Hopefully we will see some more racing from Goodwood now you are part of their team. As ever none of this happens without Neil so as usual "I take my hat off to you sir."

[@markrs2000]

Great film, Chris Harris makes great car films, shame they can't have this sort of stuff on the TV. Brilliant thank you.

[@warboyrb]

Had more fun watching this then an entire season of F1. Chris, love your style mate.

[@jamesross2373]

Absolutely epic! That just looked like the most fun possible on four wheels

[@promotedemocracy]

thank you for sharing and I mean literally sharing your experience with us. thanks a lot.

[@Deyquil_]

Brilliant Chris. Wonderfully shot by Neil! Had me at the edge of my seat rooting for you and Chris Ward. Thanks for the video. Keep it up!

[@PeakTorque]

Bastos Capri being a little bugger

[@camryt]

stoppsi Yeah that guy was blocking like a mofo!

[@Dethmeister]

stoppsi Yeah, what a bastos.

[@burlatsdemontaigne6147]

stoppsi Yeah, that number 10! I hope Chris had "words" with the driver afterwards. If there is one thing that really improves a race, it is a bit of a scuffle in the pit lane!

[@Dutub2000]

I agree. What a dick, to be completely frank. You don't cut someone off like that, not even when it's a competition.

[@manulucky027]

as the name implies he is bastos

[@tomfox747]

I lost it at "Tiffs special nudge technique at the fastest corner" XD

[@Dnaiss]

Wicked Chris and Neil, totally wicked..! Thanks a lot, this is great stuff, proper car culture thing. We thank you for the quality you're offering us, and we envy you a bit that kind of live experience ;) Cheers

[@cosmicspanner]

Looked like fun - and the Rover sounded glorious! Love Tiff at the end, too "I wish /I'd/ had a misfire.." !

[@Froseization]

So immersive ! So awesome ! Congrats Chris.

[@veretos7]

Absolutely brilliant stuff Neil and Chris. A part of my soul yearns to have lived in this era just to be at these types of races

[@PullerzCoD]

I have to say that looked insanely fun! Great video as always!

[@ChampionHero]

I absolutely loved this Chris! Huge grin for the entire race and that Rover V8 sounded beautiful. Such a shame Rover went to crap. A fantastic effort from you both - especially considering you were up against Matt Neal and Tiff! As for the TopGear Question... I think that should have been "When are WE replacing Jeremey ;)"

[@theeoddments960]

Rover went to crap after dumping out that Buick motor. The 215 is a rare thing here in the USA because it’s dwarfed by other v8s of the time and cars got bigger after it was made but I love how Britain took and expanded on the engine. They really made it breathe as soon as they had their hands on it. Good breathing is a thing all Buick motors struggle with. I should know.

[@applejuice5272]

​@@theeoddments960 In the early 90s Rover were developing a KV8 to replace it but it just didn't produce enough torque. They lopped off two cylinders though - hence why the KV6 had a 90-degree vee.

[@ChrisDorgan]

Brilliant video once again, thank you Chris & Neil and the rest of the people involved. The last Goodwood video you did a couple of years ago is up there as one of my favourites on youtube. The noise off that grid was immense!!

[@pd4165]

Thank you CH and crew - the best vid I've seen all year.

[@oliharding]

Great job, lads! Thoroughly enjoyed the Goodwood videos!

[@fritzonvespa]

Great viewing...got the heart pumping. Nearly as good as doing it. Really interesting watching both driving styles/lines......nearly fell off the sofa 3 times going for the apex!!

[@shredandspin]

I enjoyed watching this even more than Evo's McLaren comparison video. Thanks for the excellent entertainment Mr. Harris!

[@JohnCharter]

This was a fantastic video. The shots, the sounds, the racing. Well done sir.

[@unsilence]

Beautiful video, what a great way to film heartracing moments. Great vid as always Chris and Neil!

[@ant0n13l]

I don't ever comment on youtube videos but this one woke somethign in me. Something visceral.. The sound of that camaro. Oh gosh! This video was sweet. Great work Chris

[@MarkMash17]

Chris' videos really come alive with his 'journeys'. The car reviews are ok but it's the journeys and adventures that he does that really help bring the viewer along....

[@robertrishel3685]

You and Neal are an amazing team, another brilliant video.

[@stecky2010]

Damn you Chris. Everything you provide is gold.Thank you

[@slatanek]

congratulations on your P2 - great drive from both of you! Very nice to see those different car's dicing, not to mention racing with cars that actually slide and go fast at the same time is soooo much more fun towatch than it is now with the super grippy tires and super stiff suspensions. Good stuff!

[@the1mdriver]

Another truly Epic film guys!!! Also really enjoyed the top quality comments, its such a refreshing departure from the typical youtube idiom. Such a knowledgeable, well spoken and mature viewership, it speaks volumes to the quality of your channel. So I just have to say, much love for the hours of first rate entertainment you two have given us all, I'm sure you hear this sort of thing a lot, but I doubt our collective appreciation could be overstated and when I get to watch something as great as this, I just have to gush on you a little.(LOL) So thank you Chris and thank you Neil, you two really have something here.

[@philipmcdonald168]

Hahaha fantastic! Rovers not very common here in Australia, but I loved my SD1! Had the 4.4 block from the Aussie leyland P76 with the 3.5 heads, 3" exhaust running LPG only with gas research throttle body. Sounded bloody great, went like the clappers and surprised the hell out of (beat) a lot of commodores and falcons! Love Harris's work!

[@V8bgt]

Just utterly marvelous video, keep up the good work old chap! You outrun everbody else on YT with this type of material.

[@muzman777]

Great racing, watching that SD1 slide through the corners i quite a sight. My old man and 3 or 4 of those Rover V8's through the years, so great nostalgia for myself. All good.

[@NickNakorn]

Beautifully shot little film and proper racing too; a golden era recreated. :-)

[@saileshpillay]

Awesome racing, brilliant cars and what a beautiful music score!

[@HaloRemorse]

Loved it. Both of the Goodwood videos were prime examples of some excellent filmography. The music was just right not to much, not to little set the mood well. Congrats to you and the other Chris, on the podium finish. Keep it up man, devoted fan of your videos (and your Jalopnik articles).

[@87tubechrisd]

A great race, great car and beautiful photography as always.

[@victorlgcarvalho]

Awesome racing, awesome video.... Chris, your KZbin channel is a must for anyone who trully likes cars.

[@christopherlloyd1725]

Superb video,love the SD1 incar stuff,must have watched this 10 times + please do more.

[@Gavin756]

Great driving and video Chris. The SD1 has to be one of the coolest cars of the period! The Camaro/Mini battle is probably some of the best racing I've seen in a while.

[@psk1w1]

The Camaro and Mini are two cars at the opposite extremes of sports car motoring. It's truly astonishing how fast that Mini is. I didn't catch the final placing of the Mini. I would like to know what has been done to it to make it SO fast

[@xRoboRedx]

Fantastic job all around, Chris. Great race and great video.

[@DocWolph]

Everything racing should be. Street cars stripped and equipped for racing. No crazy aero (Chin spoiler and deck spoiler or small wing), no monstrous engine upgrades, rather permissive as to what cars are allowed (Mini coopers Vs Camaros vs FB RX-7s Vs Ford Capris vs et al), drifting as natural and necessary technique to get around faster... This is what I picture as real Trans-Am being, with more American cars and newer cars naturally. But still. THIS IS WHAT AMERICA NEEDS. Not a mildly tweaked NASCAR, or Indycars that look like insane collections of shaving razors. Car people can buy from the local dealer, that you or you friend/neighbor/rival may be driving, out actually racing. Oh! BTW, Subscribed!

[@onebadmouse]

Thin tyres too!

[@Ravidshaw]

Thank you for these high quality productions. Sound (and music) is lovely. One can hear and feel the mechanical history (and sense the patient and clever hand of the mechanics) while watching these cars. Chris on Cars follows in tradition of Victory by Design, beautiful cars driven by a passionate, knowledgible and adept driver filmed in a way that the viewer may, for a few moments, share part of the experiance. I'm hoping Jays Garage watches this and figures out how to capture machine sound. Jays great but his vids fall apart when he hits the road. Thanks Chris on Cars. More Please.

[@BurnDuration]

Awesome stuff! It looks like at the end of the day, lightness and agility certainly helps, but horsepower is the easiest advantage to exploit.

[@joehollindrake]

I'm sold! This was incredible. I'll definitely be visiting next year

[@WHELDON74]

Great photography and fantastic driving. It was almost as good as being there.
