Prepped Track Drag Racing in the UK! V8-swapped Nash Metropolitan vs Vauxhall Nova Drag Car

[@KevinTalbotTV]

Love Santa pod, hope you enjoyed it!

[@BoostedMike2]

mr talbot i see you pop up everywhere

[@SVJ804]

Uk series saving hooligans maybe

[@Rev.Match.Reviews]

I have previously understood peoples complaints about vehicle intros when they spend 4 minutes/stock super car. These are super unique one-offs, so it makes sense. Yall got tiktok brain.

[@mastathrash5609]

💯 agreed

[@hybrid9mm]

Agreed tikrot is everywhere

[@omgness1234]

Exactly!

[@allthingsminifig9263]

Yea i agree. Also, I don’t think they realise they can skip the video if they think the intros a too long lol

[@uber_stuber]

Gary is LITERALLY keeping Hoonigan alive. Hoonigan's energy and personality would otherwise be dead (no offense, Micah, cuz you're very much appreciated as a seasoned member). and Gary, bless your heart, there's a full continent between England and the Mediterranean haha

[@PrydeWater901]

What about G-body Georjah?

[@samteks125]

​@@PrydeWater901 Nah

[@hamstermegametal]

yeah the others crew members are so boring

[@uber_stuber]

@@hamstermegametal I mean, the other members are basically gone lol

[@uber_stuber]

@@PrydeWater901 I mean, I'll definitely give you that. She's literally the only new member that fits the vibe of the channel. But unfortunately, now that this company has been sold off, it's dying.

[@officially_gassed]

YOO THANKS FOR HAVING ME GUYS!! 🏁 LEGENDARY CONTENT INCOMING 🏁🔥📈

[@darthcanadian]

I was half watching then heard them introduce you and 100% of my attention was sent straight to the vid! This collab was long overdue. Also did you convince them to bring the stats sheets? Thats one of my favourite parts of your vids! Glad to see hoonigan takin notes!

[@idunno2316]

Should get some OG battle guys on here 👀

[@Kits550]

Wheres the 'teg OG?

[@graiggeraldmapfumo3205]

Loved you at carwow that was amazing

[@isaacmccarty1564]

It was cool to see you on another one of my fav channels. You’re the reason I bought my fiesta st!

[@Redmist.65]

Santa Pod is an incredible venue that everyone in the UK should support to keep it around.

[@NerdgasmDesigns]

That Seto Kaiba coat is FIRE!!!!

[@Tacolord125]

As soon as I saw that I asked myself if it was Kaiba's coat. Straight pimpin.

[@ThatDudeinBlue]

This is so sick. I want to visit that drag strip one day!

[@josebatres524]

You should

[@andyguyuk1]

You should it's like the best place in Britain

[@szczurrat2402]

I'd love to see our boys host more automotive celebrities! I hear that blue guy has a couple fast cars...

[@SantaPodTV]

You're always welcome! 🙌🙌

[@gmain1977]

You should come to UK, bring a brolly with you

[@violinmiata]

What I adore about my Australian and British friends is that they will negotiate politely to make things as fair as possible. And they like to party

[@Youtubedotcomma]

Respect to the period correct air freshener in the nova LOL

[@elcasho]

Feu Orange!

[@5pr1nk57]

I clocked that too!

[@connormrozinski9959]

16:30 - "I think for all the FWD cars, as long as you make them all wheel drive you wouldn't have a problem"

[@samteks125]

Except, when they're AWD, you'll double the power and be in the same sort of mess, just worse 😂

[@jameswallace4794]

I noticed that too. Mind blown. I wonder if subaru knows about this?

[@davidtappe5337]

I know right.

[@owly_k]

You: V-A-U-X-H-A-L-L N-O-V-A. What does it read? Me: OPEL CORSA!!

[@cameronrobbins3521]

The vauxhall corsa came later (for us in the uk) as the nova replacement and went from square and boxy to round and bubbly 😂

[@mrtandemslidessbtt]

Opels are Corsa A’s are LHD, novas are RHD

[@owly_k]

@@cameronrobbins3521 The Nova was what we called Corsa A, Vauxhalls first Corsa was our Corsa B and so on. We later had a similar story when Opel renamed the Kadett to Astra but kept the letters, so we had Kadett E followed by Astra F.

[@owly_k]

@@mrtandemslidessbtt Vauxhall Nova is a RHD Opel Corsa

[@tomibby]

Corsa starts at B

[@ktmkevin]

Can you imagine Vin Diesel "Dude, you still owe me a 10 second car" and then you show up with a bloody Nova/Corsa? Hell yeah 😂

[@SwordManiac84]

Whhhhaaat jamieeeeeee “OFFICIALLY GASSED” let’s get it boys!!!!!!!!!

[@mk1kieran]

Yesss! So excited for the videos from this series 👀👀

[@MrDreddZz]

Ohhhh Jamieeee let's goooo! I expect to see an integra on this soon 👀👀

[@MrMadmeads]

Props to mica and Gary for keeping this channel alive

[@leguile1]

People whining about skipping the intros out of boredom. How are you going to complain about content youre not watching? Just skip and shut it. Watching the car intros is the sauce.

[@spottedmotors]

1:10 sure that was our Twin Turbo Cortina

[@dustynias]

Nice to see jaimie! recall seeing him on carwow, been enjoying his channel ever since. Sick episode as well! I love small car, big motor setups. Most improtantly, nice to see the race times FINALLLLLLY!!!!

[@kafakay]

that nash lookin so goofy i love it

[@mr.pritchard67]

I already like this international setup! Let's go!!!

[@brainlessfish]

Absolutely loved this, a complete shake up for This-vs-That... More please

[@cameronrobbins3521]

Was at santa pod for the top fuel dragsters last month, wicked weekend

[@kfunky209]

"Just Don't Die" is definitely the mantra for this episode

[@glennnikkelson3082]

omfg BBE im so usein that from now on what a aussie legend !!!!

[@luisacuna3078]

I always watch the races on OG's channel. Jamie presents all the best cars in the UK from 4 bangers up to v10 with twin turbos haha love the content from Hoonigan too

[@bryanwarren2578]

That Nash is mental😮😅

[@filgeorge1]

Appreciate the time and money people put into these cars. Show support.

[@tdwl4373]

This was good. Scotto insert was appreciated.

[@KHALABEEB]

Na, just reminds us how good Hoonigan used to be

[@loelhenry1055]

Jamie got some sweet rides

[@moonhowler_OG]

Gary and Micah keeping the channel alive!!!

[@aaronliddell4280]

One of more interesting matches in awhile with the contrast of the builds, cheers 👍

[@raymondjack]

Pro that rotiform add! That what commercial should be! Slick yo. They got wheels for a junk box ford fusion I’m in!

[@syberracer2984]

How are you all enjoying Blighty? Lovely to see This vs That coming to Santa Pod.

[@themuffinman25]

Gary bringing up Ricky from Boyz n the Hood lmao.

[@pinecone80470]

Love that the Kado "tchk tchk" on the taps has survived. Miss the old daily transmission vids

[@AH-lw2bj]

Wow from the back 12:11 it looked like the white car was getting gaped but it was the other way around!!

[@0o-0o694]

Ever since I discovered carwow. I haven't seen a reason to watch this channel. they do drag races better, than they have more interesting things.They have longer races, multiple races. And the commentaries actually interest

[@stephbarbershop2518]

Good. no more 3rd rate drag races with 4th rate finishes. Ima hold ya to that Gary.

[@cheesysteaks9377]

damn, finally we got an exact time for a quarter mile

[@colinhawley8050]

Damn. Even limping that Nash is nasty. What a set of races. Looking forward to the next one from across the pond

[@Taino871]

So proud to hear Freddy say “ Texas “ with pride. MERICA!

[@King1Street]

Metropolitan already wins for fitting a big block chevy in that thing

[@lonetrader1]

THIS! THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE!! One of the best races I've seen from yall in a WHILE!!

[@omgness1234]

These are crazy interesting builds, insane people are fast forwarding through it, what do y’all even want to see then?!?

[@TediI47]

Haven't watched in a while but loved this matchup. Great cars.

[@andrew86fl]

As the front man, Gary is single handedly carrying Hoonigan.

[@atrevi19]

Finally showing times ! Awesome 🎉

[@ZiNGeR1843]

"just don't die" is a phrase with a double meaning, like the death of Ken Block and the death of Hoonigan

[@Number1HeadlightRestoration]

Wicked to see you guys at Santa Pod here in the UK 😁

[@JuanRivera-cj9wq]

The “just don’t die” merch is sick

[@pgmurray76]

Mid to late 80's Nova in the US was a Toyota Corolla. They lasted forever, like 300-400,000 miles. The beginnings of Geo sub-brand.

[@pgmurray76]

Poor Jay and Hemi Under Glass that day. That Barracuda was pristine before that rollover.

[@jakesmith7503]

Yo!!! Mr king junior, need the deets on that cloak you rocking!

[@levimaxwell7745]

UK all day good to see some different cars

[@kentbeitel9966]

1650lbs…. Holy that’s soooo light. What a wicked car 🤘🔥 thing sounds incredible.

[@07rugbyplayer]

Quality content guys! Looking forward to the rest of the line up! - Hoping to to see Andy Forrest's crazy 4wd Westfield on here!?

[@headsetlucky13]

I don't know what gear Gary's sporting but he's definitely pulling it off

[@Bularistan4o]

I remembered Mikah doing the man-line at the OG Hoonigan HQ and I miss these times... Drag racing is cool as every other car race, but can we have something different at some point? The Opel was sick btw.

[@jefe_mas_grande]

No

[@JukeboxAlley]

I love that nash metro, very cool ride, i remember racing those in a game called racing rivals and it looks basically identical to the one in the game, and it was crazy fast as well!

[@mybloodtypeKRYLON]

Gary drippin to hard

[@Lee.gRC27]

Santa Pod is a must for everyone, even if you not a petrol head

[@young3nsinglej]

Saw Jamie and went, oh, OH, THIS is the up coming race! Can not wait, LET'S GO!

[@pauliewalnuts240]

This nova owner right here is one of the few people to actually purchase a Nova with money.

[@scotty197878]

Funny how the Uk scene is finally being US recognised by loads of KZbinrs! We don’t have all the motoring restrictions that the US has either.

[@debbiewright2171]

What's the bet that the Hoonigan guy never understood 1 word that the nova owner said ! 😂😂

[@thenamestevewastaken]

Dropped off Hoonigan, fully back in for the UK content, especially with Players Jay, Jamie and AF! ❤

[@kyleswag7ghs]

Tha accents alone are making the channel slightly better

[@ElMuzhighz]

Was just about to go to bed then saw a fresh upload!!!!

[@marvelfanalliance7725]

Someone needs to get ahold of the guy that owns Red Victor 1 and get him on his show.

[@Alllineedisonemic]

Dudes it's wild how original that Nash Metro is I've seen two in my life one at a Goodguys show and one at the Harold LeMay car show the man has 60,000 cars or something God Blass

[@jedimindz1502]

Wern't expecting to see Jamie on here! Go on son

[@JacobGreen-rr7ue]

Jay looks n sounds like he could be Greg Davies cool brother, gng.

[@phlashtheband4939]

Love those little Metro's, drove a "stock" one in high school. Funny rare little cars with the three-speed shifter coming right out of the dashboard.

[@spindachula]

1:08 the Kaiba fit goes crazy!🤣🤣 I love it!!

[@RandomGuyWithaMazda]

HOLY SHIT IS THAT *THE* SETO KAIBA, the CEO of the multi-national gaming company, KAIBA CORPORATION?!

[@usmcus]

make those guys dreams come true- hire them both for Hoonigan, bring them back state side ( both those cars can fit into one shipping container)

[@DREADPILL]

Not even seen them race yet and its a big thumbs up....these cars are wild!😊

[@crustaceoelcaveza3645]

I see you all in London, looking forward to see the video of the car meet !!!! I was thinking it was thinking I was wrong but now I know you were here !!!!!

[@Jonathan-rt7vh]

Rotiform gets it! Best commercial I've ever seen

[@h276wah7]

Nice guys! Iconic track, iconic people ❤

[@goodtimes714]

Its nice to get the back story on the car and then seeing what it can do.

[@benteggy7646]

There will be a rematch once both cars are 100% it has already been agreed

[@poindextertunes]

The “Dylon, you sonova bxtch!” edit was 🔥😂😭

[@ItzRichPm]

First time I had to put subtitles on your guys videos

[@Syntech_864]

Thank gosh no air head in this episode yapping

[@blueonblueracingnova]

Very good video lads

[@BigCP13]

The fact that they thought four-cylinder nova was going to take out a big block go kart is baffling…

[@cpftank09]

Awesome to see you guys over there!! It’s too bad Barney the MR2 is down because I’d love to see that one go.

[@pgmurray76]

This was quite a matchup. BB V8 RWD vs turbo FWD. Tiny cars. Good showing.

[@polardaking]

Jamie from officially gassed 🔥🔥 didn't expect to see that here

[@Hugh.Gilbert]

We need Red Victor in this series!

[@spindachula]

6:20 nooooo i wanted him to keep the fit on the whole show🤣🤣🤣

[@itsisaac3874]

That Nash Metropolitan is sick 😂

[@sportquattro86]

That Nova is crazy!!!

[@ivanz2709]

Texas series should’ve been longer

[@TheHoonigans]

Texas Season 2 coming soon!

[@samteks125]

UK series should've been longer

[@ChowdyBoi]
