Any idea what he’s just pulled together?
Literally no idea. It looks like some probably quite nice cars and a lot of dull talk about tyres… and reference to an internet forum about cars… and going to get the tyres fitted… in a garage… and isn’t it SO amazing..?! That we are… actually… fitting these tyres..! That we ACTUALLY got from… Pirelli! No… don’t look at ME! Look at the cars…! THESE cars…! Aren’t they amazing… Aren’t WE amazing..!
I quite like cars, I watch a fair amount of youtubery about them occasionally. I went to Goodwood Festival once and quite enjoyed it.
That really was dull and very self-satisfied. A total turn-off.
Sorry.
It’s an internet forum. I’m allowed to disagree. And you, or others, are allowed to call me a twunt if you like, which you probably will.
Cos I disagree with your view..
I’ve no objection to you criticising it on its artistic merits – that’s fine, I was trying to gauge whether you appreciated the politics involved in organising a group ‘c0cks on the block’ track test between THE 3 Hyper cars. Especially when one considers that only 12 months or so ago CH couldn’t even get a test car from Ferrari his stock with them was so low after questioning their practice of providing ‘good examples’ for tests.
This is a test that pretty much every car journo has been trying to do, it’s the one that Top Gear didn’t even manage before they blew up. It might not be The Godfather but but its a hell of an achievement and for that alone he should be applauded.
