Tiff's cameo was the cherry on top of a brilliant video.
Tiff AND Chris harris in the same video = gold
Jonka Olofsson They would make a good top gear replacement combo. Some genuine car geeks.
Bob Mul Catchpole is a shoo-in.
Bob Mul Chris was a guest on one of the episodes of the latest series of Fifth Gear
Mr Needle is more than a car geek, a professional race driver
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.
Thumbing loud V8s, Screaming i6 engines and Shouting i4 engine OMG this is just a treat to a gear-heads ears! I love it!
Nice job Chris! I loved the bit with Tiff at the end too. What a legend.
Chris Harris and Tiff Needell. Same video. Same race.
Internet broken. Automotive journalism complete. Go home everybody.
***** Tiff is awesome.
"I wish I had a misfire" tiff is the king of racing driver excuses haha the man is awesome
Chris Harris appeared on a recent episode of fifth gear with tiff
Pat Mccarron I missed that, must find it.
***** So true bro, lol
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.
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.
Jeston Aylen I've heard it's one big scam about all that oil running out tho haha :D
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.
Jeston Aylen
Petroleum ain't running dry. The U.S is having a renaissance in oil production.
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
Awesome job as always. It'd be nice if Tiff returns to Top Gear. Better than anyone else imo.
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.
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 !
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.
much more fun than F1 nowadays.
brilliant editing
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.
wortheffort Awesome vid. You can see the real racing spirit for the human side and for the mechanical one.
Genuinely put a smile on my face! Especially the bit of banter with Tiffany at the end.
Chris Ward is so good, such a relaxed style, like he was half asleep on that car, so fluid, great episode!
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.
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.
More more more of these. Best vids you guys have put up. Love to watch these classics battle it out. Great driving...obviously.
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.)
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.
@@3storiesUp bullshit. these older cars always tend to be at their fastest with a bit of slip, ward drove it beautifully
Grass . . . . the OTHER track surface!
Goodwood is definitely a bucket-list event for me. The incredible mix of cars, the sounds, the legendary drivers, it's nirvana.
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!
I lost it at "Tiffs special nudge technique at the fastest corner" XD
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".
Part 2 was even BETTER than the first part. What a fantastic video. Great stuff, Chris.
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!
A noble pursuit of ones time. Well done Chris. Well done.
God dammit Neil, what a magnificent operator you are...!
That Camaro sounds glorious.
Daniel Maia Sounds so raw, especially cool looking with the flames sputtering about the exhaust.
Daniel Maia I REALLY want a pre-facelift first-gen Camaro in a dark colour now (i.e. like the Faberge one). Don't like the facelift (e.g. Bastos car) so much.
***** Sorry, yes, that's what I meant - don't know why I wrote first-gen!
***** I really just prefer the second-gen, I think it's better-looking and has a much nicer interior. A modernised engine and IRS conversion could make it a very nice, usable Pro-Touring type road car with enough performance to deal with a lot of modern cars.
***** There are some IRS swaps around. It probably wouldn't be too hard to swap in the rear end from a rusted-out old Jag, for example. I've seen people work wonders with live axles, but you can't get rid of that unsprung weight unless you go IRS. That said, the SD1 did well enough on its live axle, even though it replaced the far more sophisticated P6, which had a semi-trailing-arm IRS with a split De Dion tube, leading arms and a Watt's linkage, or something like it... www.curbsideclassic.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/rear-suspension.jpg
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
My lips are dry after nineteen minutes of nonstop grinning. THIS is what motor racing is truly about. Well done everyone!
How is it that Chris's videos just keep getting better & more entertaining?
CH + Tiff + Alex Goy = new TG gold!
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,
That was magnificent, whatever you do please don't stop making these wonderful videos !
For the first time in my life, I want to buy a rover.
it's never too late...
Mumbo Jumbo this is a very different kind of video compared to where I would expect to see you.
Me too never thought id say that. But has to be V8 SDI
Rover made some utterly brilliant cars.
Shame they're overshadowed by the rubbish they also pumped out every now and then.
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.
I wish modern cars sounded this good. Modern cars sound artificial compared to these classics. Great video Chris and great camerawork Neil!
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.
I have to say that looked insanely fun! Great video as always!
What a fabulous drive by Chris Ward, respect
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.
‘Are you replacing Jeremy on the show?’
Ohhhhh, this has aged well.
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!
Pure sound, no music, just the comments needed, a great video again Mr. Harris !
Feels like I watched a movie, just absolutely great! Thanks to the whole Team behind this channel!
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!
You guys make some of the best car videos. Great photography, just the right amount of voice over.
Well done Chris(s). From memory you've always come close here, hopefully one year we can see you on the top step!
Great film, Chris Harris makes great car films, shame they can't have this sort of stuff on the TV. Brilliant thank you.
Superb work! On the track and filming this! You're killin it Chris Harris on Cars!
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
I was glued to this the entire race, marvelous piece of video. Motorsport is just what a man needs right??
Looked like fun - and the Rover sounded glorious! Love Tiff at the end, too "I wish /I'd/ had a misfire.." !
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant driving of both drivers.
Fantastic video, one more time... need more of Goodwood now!
Congratulations.
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
Had more fun watching this then an entire season of F1. Chris, love your style mate.
One of the best video's I've seen in ages!
Awesome. I miss those days terribly.
Great job, lads! Thoroughly enjoyed the Goodwood videos!
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
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.
Damn you Chris. Everything you provide is gold.Thank you
You and Neal are an amazing team, another brilliant video.
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.
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.
What a race!! This is all about driving! Thanks Chris for share it!
A really fantastic video. Loved watching Chris Wards relaxed style. Thanks for the upload!
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.
The driving right after the safety car returns the race back to normal is complete MADNESS. IT'S SO GOOD! 11:40
So immersive ! So awesome ! Congrats Chris.
Goosebumps and a big fat grin on my face. Thanks for sharing m8.
thank you for sharing and I mean literally sharing your experience with us. thanks a lot.
Aaaaaawesome real racing
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 ;)"
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.
@@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.
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
The sound when he shifts up! Fantastic!
I enjoyed watching this even more than Evo's McLaren comparison video. Thanks for the excellent entertainment Mr. Harris!
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."
Absolutely epic! That just looked like the most fun possible on four wheels
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!!
That was a joy to watch and listen to ! Just brilliant !
This was a fantastic video. The shots, the sounds, the racing. Well done sir.
That is the best racing I have seen all year period.
Bastos Capri being a little bugger
stoppsi Yeah that guy was blocking like a mofo!
stoppsi Yeah, what a bastos.
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!
I agree. What a dick, to be completely frank. You don't cut someone off like that, not even when it's a competition.
as the name implies he is bastos
that was a great episode , more please , raw and humble - brilliant result
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....
These Goodwood videos are the best thing in the world
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
Just utterly marvelous video, keep up the good work old chap! You outrun everbody else on YT with this type of material.
Loved this! Awesome racing, fantastic SD1!
Thanks for sharing 👍
Beautifully shot little film and proper racing too; a golden era recreated. :-)
Thank you CH and crew - the best vid I've seen all year.
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
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.
God, love the sound of the engines
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!
A great race, great car and beautiful photography as always.
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!
Thin tyres too!
Congrats on 2nd place!!!!!!!
this was just as good as last years episode
Fantastic job all around, Chris. Great race and great video.
