Epic! I was on the edge of my seat - felt like I was watching an action sequence of a blockbuster movie! I’m a longtime follower of @Rick Shiels Golf; DriveTribe has a new fan and subscriber! Well done, gents!
A female friend of mine was going to buy a Golf R because it ticked all the boxes she needed. Unfortunately, those boxes were all about practicality and nothing to do with performance, so when myself and other friends managed to pick our jaws back off the floor, and explain to her how incredibly fast the Golf R is, it came as a complete surprise to her. Even more unfortunately, Russia invaded the Ukraine and fuel prices went through the roof, so our friend changed her mind. It's a real pity because we'd been looking forward to a ride in that Gold R.
Still remember on top gear when he said 'Oh no, I'm gonna catch golf from you two'. To the grand tour when he tells May and Clarkson hes been taking lessons lol
Randomly I decided to work out how much power the ball "has", it works out as about 55hp. Golf ball mass = 0.04593 Kg (max), V = 340 kph, contact time with club is around 5 ms. Using E=0.5mv^2 and P=E/t gave about 55hp. Obviously it's very rough with a whole load of assumptions but I thought it was interesting and there might be 1 other person as sad as me who'd find this interesting. (Edited a typo)
@@Haval1998 fair point, that brings it down to 32hp, I based the speed on a basic google search which gave me a figure of slightly above the world record :) D'oh! (I know nothing about golf!)
@@Eren-da-Jaeger yep, with a power to weight ratio of about 700,000bhp per ton, but only for 0.005s then it's got the same power to weight ratio as a caravan :)
What a collab. Been watching boy R men for the many years, and with Rick coming up to his 10 year youtube anniversary it's amazing to this kind of recognition on the platform. I never knew he had that kind of pace in his legs.
Here from the podcast. As an original Top Gear watcher, now turned The Grand Tour and now a fairly new golfer, this is some dream content from a dream collaboration! Look forward to more guys
Great video! Got here because I listened to the Rick Shiels Golf Show podcast featuring special guest Richard Hammond. I used to watch Top Gear as a young man so it's very cool to see him again with my favorite golf pro!
Brilliant ❤ Thank you Drivetribe for getting the old boys out 😄 Joking aside, Misters Clarkson, Hammond & May have entertained us all for so many years 🎉 & I totally fail to apologise for enjoying Drivetribe so much 😂 Thanks to you all ❤

Would have loved to see a bit more about how the car behaves around the track (shots from outside of the car), other then that more fun to watch then expected :)
Thanks to Bridgestone for sponsoring this video. Check out the Potenza Sport tyre here: bit.ly/DT_Bridgestone
Maybe have Clarkson drive the car in the next round?
Would love to know the tune ID used as from 4:15 please, thank you so much...

Always a class video with Rick Shiels, legend of the UA-cam golf game!
Need to add in the car wasn’t turned upside down.
This was such a fun challenge! Looking forward to more collaborations in the future 🙌
🚗⛳️🏃♂️🧔🏻♂️
Looking forward to the interviews with people whose golf clubs are worth more than their cars.
You guys should switch places next time!!
Love the collab! Enjoy the heck out your channel Rick!
@@Riley_Mundt I'd like to see Rick land a golfball in the back of a Bentley, what do you recon
@@Nicolchu_ Only if he lands it in the cupholder.
I feel this was a missed opportunity to use a Golf R or GTI so it would be Golf V Golf.
Needed James May in there for that.
I really wish they had

hhhhh
They wanted it to be close 😏😎
Not the collab we wanted but the collab we needed. Unbelievable. Quality work.
Id love to see more of this. it has a vintage TG feel I've missed.
Looking forward to some more collaborations. Like Richard playing a round on Rick's channel!
Two of my favorite pastimes, and two of my favorite channels, coming together to entertain me. This is truly glorious.
This is probably one of my favorite car vs random thing challenges "Top Gear" has ever done
Love how Hammond keeps reminding himself not to crash! I can almost imagine a tiny Mindy on his shoulder, telling him not to.
How am I only seeing this video two of my favourite people Rick Shiels and Richard Hammond 🙌
Still remember on top gear when he said 'Oh no, I'm gonna catch golf from you two'. To the grand tour when he tells May and Clarkson hes been taking lessons lol
Watch Richard Hammond on Ricks recent podcast where he fully explains the story. Great stuff
This very much had the vibe of one of Hammond's old "car vs. something silly" challenges. Nice.

Oooh. Yep, this is interesting. Cheers Tom.
Looks about right, except for the velocity. Rick Shiels has about 161mph ball speed which is 259km/h.
@@Haval1998 fair point, that brings it down to 32hp, I based the speed on a basic google search which gave me a figure of slightly above the world record :) D'oh! (I know nothing about golf!)
@@tom314 But still with 32hp, the power to weight ratio is off the chart in comparison to any hypercars.
@@Eren-da-Jaeger yep, with a power to weight ratio of about 700,000bhp per ton, but only for 0.005s then it's got the same power to weight ratio as a caravan :)
I thought that video would have been a waste of time but I was on the edge of my seat, brilliant, exciting fun. Thanks Guys
I’ve been a fan of both Rick Shiels and Richard Hammond for years now, so great to see them together and Rick can really run lol 😂 congrats Rick!
Saw the thumbnail and was like.. oh its rick sheils!! Two of my favorite things come together. Golf and cars!
Can't wait to see the other ideas from Rick's podcast featuring Hammond 😂
It's over to you Bentley 😉
You guys are so smooth you make sponser spots actually interesting ;). Glad Hammond and May are regular spots, too! Well done all 'round, guys.
What a collab. Been watching boy R men for the many years, and with Rick coming up to his 10 year youtube anniversary it's amazing to this kind of recognition on the platform. I never knew he had that kind of pace in his legs.
Great fun theme video. Thank you Bridgestone. Thanks Rick, Richard, Mike and DriveTribe.

What the heck? Just started watching Rick a few weeks ago and now he's on one of my other fav channels??! Nice!!
Loved this. Felt like the old Top Gear races.
Drivers was a paid actor. We all know Hammond is secretly a wanna be golfer
He’s gone on record of the grand tour, to admit that he’s picked up golf despite his previous qualms with it.
Yet he admitted to taking Lessons.
What is "payed?" Paid yes, payed, no
@@milodemoray he was also given a lesson by Rick
No. We know the driver was a paid actor because Richard didn't finish the race upside down.
Brilliant ❤ Thank you Drivetribe for getting the old boys out 😄 Joking aside, Misters Clarkson, Hammond & May have entertained us all for so many years 🎉 & I totally fail to apologise for enjoying Drivetribe so much 😂 Thanks to you all ❤

Rick Shiels and Richard Hammond! Wow, I did not know how much I needed this collab until today
Absolutely awesome. Thanks guys!
finally! this is the sort of content you should post on this channel.
I was on the edge of my seat watching this one, very exciting!!! Looking forward to more videos like this!
That was a lot of fun, actually. I loved Rick just tossing clubs and bags along the course as he went.
Rick smashed it to victory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely loved the challenge. Please do more of these!
Awesome to see Lucy as Grid Girl!
Two of my favorite channels! Worlds colliding!
I love these kind of videos, I would love more of these in the future! 👍🏻
Love Rick! so happy to see a collab like this!
This was way more fun to watch than I thought. Now toerase my memory and watch again
As a golfer and a driver, this was a lot of fun. Rick nailed it.
Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -more Hammond driving please 👍👍
Great collab - next up, Hammond on the golf course!!!
2 of my absolute favorite things combined cars and golf! Nice vid!
Those drone shot! Stunning
Here because of Rick ... that Hammond guy is alight too. Great collaboration. I hope you continue to enjoy your new hobby Richard.
Finally someone made Golf a little bit more interesting. And it was also nice to see Hammond get around a track without crashing.
That was genuinely fun to watch! But of course knowing Hammonds track record against non cars, this was almost a foregone conclusion 😂
Please, more of these races...
...Please
seriously, the product placement couldn't have felt any more comfortable. Just a great idea and a great video.
Love this collab so much.
This might be one of the best sponsor integrations... in the world.
The collab we never thought could could happen turns into some we live for 😍😍😍😍
I used to enjoy Top Gear's challenges a lot! This was the closer I've seen in a while, awesome 🙌🏼
Rick really went for it. No hesitation whatsoever the man was full on. Props to him
BRILLIANT again. Team really enjoyable episode. 5 stars. TOM HAS TIDIED HIS BEDROOM, THANK YOU.
Your welcome in Liverpool anytime

Not in a million years did I expect this! Sweet!

Great Video, well done Rick
My two favorite UA-cam channels in one.
THIS WAS SO FUN TO WATCH!!!!
This might be my favorite Drivetribe bit to date.
An absolutely classic challenge!
Great stuff. Someone should do a TV show where cars race unusual things. 🤔
Old school TG style challenge. Sweet!
RICK!!!!!!. WHAT LEGENDS YOU GUYS ARE
Such an awesome collaboration
Found out about this from the Rick Sheils podcast...great video

Two of my favourite things in one place! Loved it!
Came here from the Rick Sheils podcast. Amazing video!
Loved this, was like an old top gear stunt
Love you guys!! More please!
Excellent! Now you need to convince Jeremy to make a vidy about how Hamster left a golfer beat him!
Would have loved to see a bit more about how the car behaves around the track (shots from outside of the car), other then that more fun to watch then expected :)
the one time shiels makes the putt on the first try 🤣🤣
this was incredible it was so close
Rick Shields and Richard Hammond in the same video. My worlds are colliding. 😆
we need more random object races like this, gives old top gear vibes like the city car vs bmx or parkour runners episodes
Rick Shiels in the house get Hammond on the channel Rick 👍
Enjoyed Richard on Rick’s podcast
Basically Top Gear meets Top Golf. I LOVE it.
This is awesome. Great work guys
3…2…1…GO
