Thanks for coming to the Cog Jimmy! You (and the Supra) are welcome back any time! - Mike
Both Drivetribe and Jimmy upload content that just makes you *feel* so good. What an awesome vid!
I think we need to see Richard have a go on Jimmy's sim rig...
@@roanoconnor98 I second that idea. Yes please
Jet car go vroom
@@roanoconnor98 He'd have to wear his lifted shoes!
May ✅
Hammond ✅
I think the next stop is Clarkson and then finally a cameo in grand tour. 👍👍 Jimbo let's go
@@SirPrizeMF The farm was actually hilarious. Changed my opinion of him.
Nah go down the farm with Clackson and watch them race combine harvester! See if Jimmy is as good in them as he is in sim :)
Don't forget spending time with The Stig.
Also: Stig ✅
@@CaptainPanick you mean racing with The Stig? Imagine how surreal it would be to be constantly beating Ben Collins in races
Man, that was a proper chat at the end of the video. Hammond's explanation of trying to connect with Jimmy's car preferences was solid. Really solid video, Jimmer! And refreshing to get to see Hammond's more intellectual side rather than just the silly side you see with TG/Grand Tour.
Stoked for you mate. Hammond is a pure legend. One more on the Top Gear podium for you to brush shoulders with.
I swore I saw stroked
@@Brainless_Memer Billy Squire fan? 😆
I loved how eager Hammond was to learn about it and your career. I think you did an proper job explaining & representing sim racing to him!
Meeting James May: ✅
Meeting Richard Hammond: ✅
Jeremy Clarkson: loading
How epic would it be if you could meet all three of the Top Gear legends on day!
Ben Collins (the Stig) ✅
He even met the Stig
@@andrijamitic3434 He beat the Stig!

And Raced Against Him and Won A Championship
And that is why Hammond is my favorite. He actually is a really amazing interviewer and is a natural at trying to make guests feel at home while getting them to open up about their lives and make a genuine connection.
To me, even if you have no connection with JDM history and that 90s culture, the Supra is still just a gorgeous, gorgeous car. I remember thinking that back when I was a kid and wasn't even interested in cars; when I saw it part of my unconscious mind noted down that it was a beautiful silhouette, which it is. It's just an almost perfect shape: smooth, sleek, elegant.
That a 'car guy' like Hammond doesn't see that obvious aesthetic quality puzzles me, because it seems to be the most obvious feature of the mk4: it's not a showy car, it's not striking, it doesn't drop your jaw...it's just extremely pleasing to look at.
Bro the supra is hella ugly and looks like a whale.
@@mrworldwide2722 you might have confused the supra with your mum there
It's the generational difference though really. As said in the video, all the 90s JDM cars are iconic primarily because of Gran Turismo, Initial D, and F&F, and consequently all the instagram/tiktok videos alluding the cars to those franchises. On a timeline where those franchises don't exist, the Supra really isn't anything special. Good? Absolutely no doubt, but it wouldn't otherwise be seen as anything different from say a Mercedes SL, Alfa Romeo Spyder, or Porsche 944 of the same vintage (inb4 weebs crying in 3, 2, 1).
To address the now raging weebs, yes, I'm not disparaging against what 90s JDM cars achieved in motorsports in the 90s, but motorsports is far more niche than the games/movies mentioned. Really it was only the R32 GTR, Subaru Impreza, and Mitsubishi Evo that really had an impact in the west at the time through rallying, Group A touring cars, and Le Mans. Yeah the JGTC was a thing, but westerner's wouldn't have been aware of it in the 90s, this is pre-social media, hence why Hammond doesn't really connect with the Supra. Hammond isn't a gamer at all, and I doubt he ever really gave a shit about F&F.
I should also mention that another reason 90s JDM cars are iconic is because in the mid 00s to early/mid 10s, they were dirt cheap performance cars that could perform far far beyond their price range; a working-man's sports car, but that era is long dead lol. I remember when you could get a mint R34 GTR for around £6k, and that was the most expensive of the JDMs in Banzai magazine classifieds lmao, EVERYTHING else would be £4.5k to as little as £1.5k.
@@solitaryclusterofneurons598 No, I think the Supra is simply a lovely looking car. Its silhouette is just very pretty. I've personally always found Porsche 911s, especially the older ones, rather ugly to look at, with their duck bill front ends, although the 944 was nice-ish in some variants. Still looks strangely lop-ended when viewed from the side, with the bonnet much lower than it should be for the purposes of a kind of symmetry.
I've never watched a single F&F movie, I dislike JDM 'culture' and I missed out completely on Gran Turismo since I only played arcade racers until fairly recently. So its 'iconicness' is neither here nor there for me. Like I said I remember liking the way it looked back when I was nine or ten and didn't know anything about cars.
Supra is shit
im 15 and do sim drifting, only experience really i've had with that kind of car would be my uncles r33 skyline. Hoping one day to drift in real life with my own car, watching you talk about how you moved up to racing from sim has genuinely inspired me to do the same.
It’s crazy how much translates from sim to real life. The feel of the car moving and peripheral vision are pretty much the only limitations. And you can knock out the latter with a VR setup
@@meh6897 idk i just use head fx seems to work for me, but yeah only thing i’ve done irl is slide a pickup truck around a field 😂
Get into shifter kart racing. There is tracks everywhere
I’m 55 years old and a mid 80’s 911 gives me the same feeling as Hammond and I’m sure what Jimmy thinks of his JDM cars. Most of you guys will be to old to remember the iconic posters of the Lamborghinis and the wine bottles and the women. 😂
How insane is it to see Richard Hammond interview Jimmy... Two different worlds and generations meeting...
Jimmy I've been watching you from the early days and it feels like how a mother would feel watching her son growing up and now he's ready to leave the house and become the man he was meant to be! The whole community is proud of you mate! 👍
This is simply amazing. All the feels!
Jimmy got me into sim racing and you got me to dig deeper into Formula 1. Thank you for being awesome!
I love how down to earth that conversation was. Really just 2 car enthusiasts talking about cars
Always fantastic to see a new Jimmy broadband video pop up❤️
its broadbent
@@rayyanhussain6805 NO
Richard Hammond is such a great interviewer, really engaging and charming. Should make a career out of it. Good thing he now has street credit interviewing our one and only Jimmer.
18:56 - I would love to see a good long session with Hammond in Jimmy's simrig with VR goggles.
never forget Jimmy, the reason you've come so far is literally because you're a fucking amazing driver.
This is why William Byron is slowly but surely becoming a ringer in the NASCAR cup series. He has had almost the exact path that Jimmy took, except in America and with NASCAR. Don’t be surprised to see Byron become a cup champion soon, and also don’t be surprised to see more and more racers make their way to the top by way of sim racing.
Really nice interview and well handled. Really enjoyed watching this.
Now that's what I call a collaboration
I absolutely love Richard's obvious genuine respect and reverence for you and all you've acheived.
I never comment but this was such a good coming of age, feel good video! I've been following Jimmy in the shadows for the past 5 years or so and have seen his recent 'real world' growth. This video was a combination of a childhood idol in RH and a youtuber I have huge respect for. Really chuffed all round! Great stuff Bimmer!
So amazing seeing how far Jimmy has come. From a shed in his mum's backyard playing Playstation sims, to meeting (now multiple) Top Gear legends, creating a stellar Sim racing channel, and then being signed to race IRL for Praga. Watching Hammond pass a torch is also touching. Great blokes.
Great interview! Reaction to 26:10 :
From my experience sim drivers that are able to adapt to a new car or track fast in the sim, have a lot of potential in real life. What they will struggle with is racecraft though. Real life drivers have much better racecraft when they go into the sim but they often struggle to get up to speed when just starting out. Most new and upcoming drivers have grown up with it which makes it much easier for them to adapt fast and beat sim drivers without a sweat
While that may be true, in Sim racing real life drivers will tend to go for more dangerous and risky moves that they would almost never try in real life, you saw it during lockdown with Verstappen (he probably would try some of those moves in real life tbh) Norris, Albon, Russell and LeClerc. When there's no monetary or health risk to crashing they go for it far more aggressively than they would in real life.
People talking about how hes met may and hammond, but nobody's talking about how hes not only met, but TAUGHT the legendary Stig
26:30 I think that question was answered nicely when the pandemic started, how younger F1 drivers started streaming (Lando, George, Charles, Albon...) more frequently and people which were already F1 sim racers beat them fairly easily. I remember that Ben Daly AKA Tiametmarduk raced Lando Norris on F1 game and he was actually faster than him. And as a guy who did both sort of real racing and sim racing, it was definitely harder to predict the car in sim racing than it was real racing therefore making the entire experience harder.
I love Richard's calm, sympathetic, way of talking. His enthusiasm for talking any old shit about cars comes out. I bought his book, the first one after his first big accident, years ago and the only thing I remember from it was a time he was in Canada and made the mistake of flushing the chain on the lav after having a pee. His hosts glared at him and said: "If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down." Wonder why that's the only thing I remember?
Absolutely loved this video. To see you going from sim racing in a shed to where you are now is truly inspiring. You have proven to everyone that if you have a passion for something and you are willing to put in all the hard work to get it that it’s achievable. Great interview with the legend himself Richard Hamster Hammond. Jezza next hey 😉
Another stellar video from Broadbent and glad to see the Supra still going strong! Proper, down to earth interview from you both, this is what I look forward to when I finish work! Two blokes living their best life! Can't wait for more 💯
I got the "see more lemons" expedia ad on this video. I hate that ad but a link to see more lemons feels strangely fitting here. great work jimmer keep it up. The penguins believe in you.
I’m 3 months older than Richard, and he seems old, even tome. At least slightly. I adore him.
I started watching Jimmy after Mark Priestly visited him. I don’t watch Mark much, anymore, but I’m still him for Jimmer.
Loving the drivetribe collabs Jimmer. I think they get more clout from you than them, which is odd! Godspeed
Richard actually sounds incredibly engaged in this conversation, it's kinda great to see.
Supra is to Jimmy's generation what something like the Charger out of Dukes of Hazzard would've been to Hammond's. Yeah, neither are super car top end or have incredible perfomance, but that makes them more relatable and the people who drove them. Man I love original TFATF.
hammond is incredibly eloquent. i know it goes without saying it, but im always in awe at how consistently fluid and enticing what he says is. i really cant tell if its mainly his vocabulary or his tone but for me the most interesting part of this video was easily just the interview where he picks your brain.
This was so dope! Congrats dude! Really enjoyed this episode and getting to see a little one-on-one with you and Hammond. How fucking cool!
Two legends having a chatt.
For me Initial D and a specific tofu delievering guy was my way into japanese cars.
i like how jimmy blocked the license plate and did a little filter but literally directly below it is drivetribes video in my feed with the license unblurred and no filter, its like a before and after
even got the exact same angle as if jimmy just hopped out of frame for their thumbnail LMAO
Honestly really happy that Hammond interviewed Jimmer here. Gave the interview a different and interesting perspective
Fuck Yeah man! So happy you’re getting these opportunities, hard work def paying off
Have you pinched yourself yet? You have Richard Hammond ON YOUR UA-cam CHANNEL!!!!
Also genuine props to how calm and relaxed you have become with this interview. I remember the time you went to May.
Love you Jimmer. Really enjoy seeing you do these things.
Love it when my 2 favourite UA-cam channels come together. I think The Smallest Cog needs a sim rig for customers waiting and Jimmy needs to join the DT team.
It seems like he is an unofficial member after all those years making collab content with them but for Jimmy I think doing freelance work is the best for him.
I'm here since 10k subscribers and i never was happier for Jimmer and where is he now.
Not just meeting these giants of the motor world, but being interviewed by them. Congratulations Jimmer.
It's only watching this that has made me realise how early I was watching Jimmy's channel, there is so so much more to his story than was touched on here and I would highly recommend his channel.
so unreal.out there living the best life you can and keep pushin
The Supra is all about the 2JZ. I mean the whole design is iconic because of the movies and video games. The 2JZ is one of the few god motors ever produced in Japan.
Im not sure why, but this is one of those videos that i smile all the way through
Jimmy and Hammond is the best duo. Congrats jimmer, super proud of you, been here since afew 1000 subs 👍
Great interview Jimmy. Glad you can share your passions and make a career out of it. Keep it up man
"I dont get how you manage do be Jimmy Broadbent"
-"Constant Pain"
Yeup. I felt that xDD
Feel. It is so true that in sim racing that's the magic sauce its missing. Sometimes I get zoned in enough to get that feel out of the controls and sounds but yeah nailed it.
Mr Broadbent now looks the consummate professional on camera. Well done, Jimmer. Very smooth.
When Jimmy and Hammond were in the same shot it looked like an aged mirror image lol 😆 same hair cut and all
You can tell Jimmy loves the Bupra with how much he rags on it
Jimmy is so under rated, even now.
a sim racer who decided to make videos then ends up with a next level job
and then actually races a real race car
now you just need to go to the ape's farm and you have met the whole trio
2:32 that’s called push to pass, Jimmer. It’s an F1 homologation feature.
02:50 - "I'm always reminded of how slow this is" dude I drive a 1.25 Fiesta, I'll bloody swap you lmao
Great video Jimmy. You looked so confident speaking with Hammond, I would have been a nervous wreck!
Loved to see my favorite sim racing driver and one of my favorite 3 blokes from Top Gear in the same video.
Speaking of good Supras, there's a '95 2JZ GTE with a quarter million KM on the clock, and they want €90,000 for it. That's fucking insane.
Congratulations, Jimmer. What an amazing video - two of my favourite car people talking. Brilliant.
Having grown up on the best trio of top gear hosts, so refreshing to see Richard Hammond sit down and just talk cars.
You did well Jimmy. That man was clearly humbled.
I understand Jimmy! He helped us through the lockdown.
What I understand less is how Mr. Hammond got that job, kept that job me is now super famous and rich.
You’re the anomaly Richard!
Kidding.
So Hammond ask if it's easier to go to sim to real or real to sim. Jimmy is right and that's its harder for a real racer to switch over to sim. I'm similar to Jimmy and grew up in the GT sim life Era. I started out in sim and took what I learned to real driving. My driving is all self taught over sim driving and applied to real life.
That felt like a genuine chat. Enjoyed that!
Great sit down with Hammond.
Damn 60mph with the light on. Cant wait to see what happens when you use the windshield whipers
I'm such a pleb for the Supra. The fact you have the Hamster himself and his garage having a look is absolutely amazing. Give me more Supra please!
Love this! Followed for so long, and it's awesome to see!
I think it is 'real' racing, in the sense that there's a 'real' danger you could get seriously hurt doing it, I guess
11:58 ...stuff to go over there, but... :( bless you jimmy, been there. hope you're happy now
40 grand is cheap, back in 2021, a 1995 Toyota Supra Turbo sold on July 30 for an astonishing $201,000 making plenty of people do a double take. MK4 Supras have been rising in value lately, including the hero car from the original The Fast and the Furious fetching $550,000 at auction.
That was a fantastic interview with the hamster. Really enjoyed it! 👍
more collaboration work with Drivetribe would be great
What a lovely thing to have happened, love it. I am four years older than Richard and I am fully embroiled within the world of sim racing, not all of us oldies don't understand it 😂
Like deployed 👍
😎🎙🏎✅
an amazing meeting between two of england's smallest men
Amazing dude! Congratulations!
Hammond and Jimmy's voices are so smooth, they should start a podcast
What a candid interview. The Supra is Jimmy has is evolving.
I can’t believe I watched this guy trying to gold Gran Turismo 1 licences a handful of years ago celebrating his first 10k subs and now this. Good lord.
Wow Hammond is a good listener and an incredible speaker. Never really watched Top Gear, but this video made me like the guy.
Richard: It's because Jimmy is nice.
Okay but this... Is a dream to just meet the man, the myth the legend Hammond
This was unexpected Absolute pleasure having you talk with Hammond and him chatting shit
Sheeeeeeeeesh!!!!!!!
That was awesome Jimmer!!!
Really nice coffee chat! Just two blokes having a nice chat, but two legends in their own right.
Jimmer I'm so happy for the way things are turning out for you mate. Couldn't happen to a nicer bloke.
This might be one of the most fucking surreal videos I've ever watched. Congrats Jimmer.
Richard Hammond is a national treasure.
Apparently the science was wrong, the speed of light is 60mph...
Great video, Jimmer, lots of love from Germany
2 people i didnt know i needed to see meet... i need more!
The world needs more of this. Thank you
How in the fuck did you pull that off. Peak content!
2024 Still waiting to see Jimmy Back
My first car was a 1977 Toyota Corolla Liftback SR5! We're practically twins!

Now I want this show to be ported to America.
Most awesome collaboration!
