Top Gear - The Stig - Marcos - BBC

[TruthinessDotCom]

Chuck Norris thought he was simply a hairy women, until he met THE STIG! Right about then he realised the pubic hair he was peeing out of was, infact, his penis.

[maxthehulk]

top gear is fake this is truth dodge viper is one of the fastest cars and should be one of the fastest lap time maybe second or third viper can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds and top speed 202 mph

[UnleashTehNoob]

@maxthehulk The truth is, this is the British Top Gear. They've always hated on American cars. the only American car that got a favorable response (as far as I know) from the show is the Ford GT...

[envieboef]

@UnleashTehNoob problem is it's handling really, same with that chevy corvette stig drove against the R8 V10, and if you watch the second american road trip they like the 3 cars they test there so it's ok really. Sure they like to have a laugh at the americans but honestly, they laugh at everyone, that's what makes this show so great ^^

[maxthehulk]

@UnleashTehNoob yes you are right

[rudeydudey05]

@untouchabledriver87

Are you sure about that? i think Dodge Viper ACR has been pushed down the pecking order in the last few years. The Radical SR8 LM holds that record now, Radical SR8 is 2nd, Gumpert Apollo 3rd, Donkervoort D8 RS 4th & 5th with the Dodge Viper ACR coming in 6th.

[reddsun1]

Pretty dog-gone good--especially considering the car's apparent tendency towards push/understeer. Oh sure, the Stig was able to counter brilliantly & get the tail out with the throttle; but would the less-than-average hotshoe be able to as well?

As homely as they were, I think I still like the Mantis GT better. They were definitely crowd-draws in the paddocks, back when they were raced in Grand Am here in the 'States.

[untouchabledriver87]

Yeah, that's why the Dodge Viper ACR holds the record at the Nurburgh ring for fastest stock production car...

[foxolita]

looks fun

[NLR884evr]

The UK is the worst place on earth to own any car let alone a sports car.

[kiekeskiller]

I love English sportcars !

[NLR884evr]

@kiekeskiller What English sports cars? They're all made in Germany.

[kiekeskiller]

@NLR884evr i have 6 triumph's in my garage en 2 of tem are made in belgium and it still english so made in germany has nothing t do with it ;)

[theGameMakingReject]

@NLR884evr lotus lister aston martin...need i say more?

[NLR884evr]

@theGameMakingReject  Please, Lotus is owned by a Malaysian company named Proton and their engines are from Honda. And your precious Aston Martin v8 or v12 was engineered and constructed in Pagnell? Sorry, it is engineered and constructed in Germany buy some bratwurst eating kraut. And Aston Martin makes some great cars so I'm not knocking them.

[theGameMakingReject]

@NLR884evr yea. Honestly, I'd want a Vantage. Thats something I can take across a continent. But thats what it's built for!!

[NLR884evr]

@theGameMakingReject The Vantage is just an absolutely stunning car and possesses a gravitas that other cars just don't have.

[theGameMakingReject]

@NLR884evr Very true. But it''s either the Vantage or R8... The R8 looks more demonic than the Vantage. So it's a beautiful machine...

[yomama629]

@NLR884evr whatever you say, the Reventon will remain the most stunning thing the human eye has ever seen... even the Stig hasn't seen a better car on his home planet

[MirZZi]

Haha, I like when he says that marcos can do better job with american engines than americans themselves

[LOLcatmaster7]

:46 the stig talked?

[itsnotbutter13]

Wait a sec! Hammond just said that the STIG SAID that it could use better brake balance! THE STIG DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING!

[silviasr20det]

@itsnotbutter13 Of course he doesn't say anything. He wrote it in rubber on the tarmac.

[MrMadHatters]

good

[validfor1hour]

i have to say the most ENGLISH car ever made and i mean better than an aston

[93sx]

better than what the americans can do with an american engine rofl

[PSNBOB580]

lol, most wayward car I've seen on the show so far.

[anka6666]

of course its top gear you pillock

but what series of top gear?

[zephyrod]

@anka6666 why insult LucidDreamTricks for answering correctly??? The question was not aked correclty its what SEASON not what Series....duh

[darkstar286]

@zephyrod in Britain, they call it series.

[kirbienstien]

the dodge viper was tested under VERY WET conditions....

[iamjoseph951]

that's true

[MrTombox]

What Series was this??

[LucidDreamTricks]

Top Gear

[dudertron1]

i has a stig keyring XD

[Spanky00Cheeks]

I wonder how a normal car, like a Fusion or an Accord, would do around that track.

[TheCarlsonsRaiders]

Well an old DB5 does it in 1:46, so I'd hope faster then a car with wood suspension.

[boo66]

They do that every weekl Spanky00Cheeks.  (With a celebrity at the wheel)

[Hijlou]

i guess a lap time of 2.59 sec =)

[anfobomb]

fusion maybe 8,3 min and accord in 7,8 or something :)

[xhikomarux]

i haven't ever heard hammond do that thing where he introduces the stig. and its not as good as jeramey

[divine101]

he has better ones.

[mossessian]

it has lots of acceloration lift.

[sootyferrari65]

@mossessian I love it when cars lift like that

[DualofChaos]

does marcos still exist?

[INUMIMI28]

no.

[jamma016er]

looks like a 350c

[booster111]

"Stig did said that car needs better brakes balance" miracle! The Stig can talk actually :D

Nice car tho.

[Lennholm89]

He can perhaps write yaknow :P

[booster111]

Maybe ;]

[XXXwolf134XXX]

that viper was only an older model, the newer version would be slightly faster because of McClaren's technical support with the v10, new headers and newer exhaust note and a new hood design

[triumphdollysprint]

not to be pain in the arse, but is there a reason why a new bonnet would make it faster?

[XXXwolf134XXX]

increased horsepower and torque, ya know, ther's always the SRT-10 ACR model that top gear hasn't tested yet, and I as sure as hell know that it going THE fastest viper to have gone 'round the top gear test track other than the upcoming devon motorworks viper gtx

[triumphdollysprint]

yeh i get that mroe torque and hp would mean a faster car, but you mentioned a new hood design (called a bonnet in aus)

i just wanted to know if that gave the new viper some sort of aerodynamic advantage over the old viper?

[XXXwolf134XXX]

why yes, in terms of lap times and driver skill

[dec8ry19con7]

hammond just dont ever say jeremy's line again its just not funny with u. in fact ur not funny t all

[hossamm3]

no he's funny...it's just u who's lame

[goseberries]

This car's a montser!!

[rigojones]

they always make fun of Americans.

[Andrewt1001]

it's true... because the brits are jealous that we don't leak oil

[dominiccook12]

" not a great start OH NO!"

[enthusia492]

does anyone know which episode is the one where Jeremy says that "the show needs more green cars" so he shows you a green Lambo?

[banjoye]

Very nice driving

[mopardude426]

i've never heard of this car before, it looks and sounds stunning. stig is an amazing...thing. long live the stig!...do stigs die? the first one just fell in the water... no one has seen him since.. but do they need air?

[fullmetalmc]

no they dont their immortal

[owowowlego]

yes they are everywhere important like he was hitlers side man

[fullmetalmc]

he or it also killed JFK

[owowowlego]

i think i heard a whisper that he also was in the who...

[jamie06101]

yeah he tore his own face off because they wanted him to show it lol :)

[LILARAB19921312]

speaking of that....watch that clip of stig flying into da water wid the jag....its fake...they used a launcher

[noosaslayer]

Great driving

[suraki939]

it would have been funny in 0:12 if he said he is known as clarkson

[CrazyDave650]

beutiful car

[dominiccook12]

no 0:28 oh no!

[cojackmanbarian]

LOL

[dominiccook12]

0:29 oh no!

[batrama310]

The design reminds me of tim burtons batmobile....maybe for that reason alone, I love this car.

[JayVanDeLay]

The Viper was a soaking wet lap. If you apply the 4-second rule, the Viper is faster than a Gallardo Spyder.

[PHILIP019]

wa!! faster than dodge viper gts.... and it can 'DRFIT'

[proscriptus]

Too bad Marcos has just gone tits up...AGAIN.

[nokolicious]

HAhahahahahahahaha!!! That's y I love britain, even the way you express yourselves is incredibly entertaining.... "TITS UP"!!! HAhaha Boy am I glad our part of africa was atleast colonised by a sensible nation.. Imagine where we'd be if we were under *hypothetically* american rule... Or God forbid, French.... That's a sad picture

[jammydodgerman]

If only USA was more like Canada, then the world would be a better place :) Canada is amazing would like to visit there again.

Keeping on topic  the Marcos is a beautiful car

[nokolicious]

HAhaha Now why would you wanna do that? I'm tryin to get the hell outta here n you wanna come in..? LOL Visiting is better, believe me... Especially Quebec, just visit, don't move here man... I beg you!!! LOL

[jammydodgerman]

its just so different from the uk. I went to Alberta and British Columbia. Visited calgary, vancouver and the rockies. You're so friendly as well :D

[OriginAndAbsolution]

lol everywhere is compared to the uk

[anthonyT01]

hmm that sound from the engine is actually pretty nice. ^_^

[Beyondthegrave1386]

That's American muscle for you.

[anthonyT01]

this car is american?

[Beyondthegrave1386]

No, but the engine is.

[anthonyT01]

oh so what car is the engine from? or was it a whole new engine?

[Beyondthegrave1386]

It's the Corvette engine.

[anthonyT01]

which corvette model is it from?

[PHILIP019]

chevrolet... from american car....

[Hai2uHorst]

Z06 I think.

[phatpun954]

probably the z06 which i believe is the ls9?

[flatpikinguitar]

ls7

[LukeXgamer]

No it's British.

[BarneyEire0900]

Its such an animal...Needs to be locked up!!Are these hard to come by?im sure they dont hold there value,like tvrs

[omegagtr]

there was under 50 of that model made before they went bump

[lukekobilan]

BS! Dude! Don't judge by race! thecolorunknown, You are as gay as a picknicking basket with "Ho" written on the side!

Get the@$#% out of here!

[112namrepus]

Yep, he is Gay.

[tanknumber22]

hammond mentioned that the stig said the braking needs some work...that completely ruins the fact that top gear knows nothing about him and hes a 'thing' lol

[flamov]

colour*

[Daishikaze]

Lovely Machine, I hope we see more from Marcos in the future

[ferrariModenas]

I like British people :))))

From USA!!

[lukekobilan]

Me too.

[LWRCftw]

@ferrariModenas that's ironic, because Jeremy Clarkson absolutely hates us Americans

[treefingers30]

@LWRCftw Doesn't everyone

[LWRCftw]

@treefingers30 oh yeah, real funny douchebag.

[treefingers30]

@LWRCftw It's true. Don't get all homo-erotic on me

[LWRCftw]

@treefingers30 yeah, you wish I would.

[NLR884evr]

@treefingers30 The US has done more for the people of the earth than the UK has and that's not even up for debate. Just one example: After WW2 the Uk was a sinking ship and completely broke. The US supplied food stamps to your country and massive amounts of economic aid so you limeys wouldn't starve to death. Also with protection of the US your country was able to withdraw it's colonial hegemony without being invaded. You're welcome!

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr just to point out, we did bring your country into existance

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus Who's "we"? The United States was brought into existence with our Declaration of Independence. By declaring that the 13 colonies were independent states free from British tyranny. And from 1775-1783 the States fought the U.K. and ultimately sent the limes back across the pond with their tales between their legs. So no, the U.K. did not bring anything into existence. Now if you'd like to discuss how the U.K. survived off U.S. food stamps after ww2 we can do that.

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr may i remind you, who agreed to signing that document? ah yes, the british and who led the planet into global depression twice? ah yes, America you elected bush twice you started a war with Iraq the majority of you are fat, ignorant and stupid (except Miami) and half of you don't even know that theres something outside your own state you enslaved millions you have the same iq as the french (98) whilst we have an average of 100 you have the death sentence and you like justin bieber!!

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus First off, who said I like Justin Bieber? Secondly, the British didn't sign shit on the our Declaration of Independence are your daft? Furthermore, If you want to compare American athletes vs British athletes then let's have that debate because it's one you're not going to win. Enslaved? You've enslaved the Irish for 800 years you idiot and are solely responsible for the half million who died from their potato crop disaster of 1874 because your country didn't lift a finger.

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr Well we don't have that many good athletes but we did invent most of the good sports, that went world wide. i.e Football, tennis, skiing(Scottish, close enough), Rugby, cricket, squash, field hockey, fives, rounders, netball, Badminton, clay pigeon shooting, polo, water polo. We did sign it other wise we would still be at war and we didn't enslave the irish we where just enemies where the famine occurred. Most of your sports are just copies of english made sports.

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus  "Well we don't have that many good athletes." Exactly.

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr you like bieber, hannah montana, jonas brothers and the insane clown posse

enough said

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus And please limey, spare your amateur critique of music because your worthless, non-superpower nation has produced the spice girls so go fuck yourself. Enough said. By the way how's that fat, drunken coke head Ricky Hatton doing these days? Didn't look to good when the American Floyd Mayweather knocked his lilly white ass out. And after that tiny Filipino bludgeoned that wanker in two no wonder he's snorting coke. The UK are losers.

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr Then if you hate the British why do you speak our Language. ENGLISH! lol

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus Now let's talk about how that fat prick Winston Churchill bankrupted your country and was solely responsible for taking the U.K. from a super power to just another bumpkin island filled with inbreds with bad teeth. Thank the Russians and the U.S. for their blood and treasure because it it weren't for them you queers would be speaking German right now. And if you want to talk about American steel and how the U.S. bailed your ass out in WW1 we can discuss that as well.

[StegoOnVenus]

@NLR884evr Britain, France and Russia where the main forces in ww1 the only reason you where ok after ww1 is because you only lost 100,000 me then when we lost 1 million. Plus you were sitting on your arses before you bothered to help defend the free world and save the jews. We spent the money for freedom. Plus, we asked for the input not just for ourselves, but to allow other countries to rebuild themselves.

[NLR884evr]

@StegoOnVenus Free trade destroyed your steel industry in WW1 and the U.S. graciously supplied steel and money to you idiots. German U-Boats were kicking your ass and needed it to build your own subs. You're welcome. Secondly, it was our policy not to get involved in Europe's petty squabbles.

[theGameMakingReject]

@NLR884evr they still have better racing. oh, btw, i'm an american. I hate nascar. I love LeMans. Call me a traitor if you will, idc...you're the one that searched for a british show...

[cheguevarra]

this cars looks like a cross between porsche,lotus elise and z4 coupe backend lol

[skatingsnotacrime]

wtf are u talking about mate... british people are the best, and arent you watching a british tv programme? well u cant think there that bad then.

[FrontLinePictures]

Why?

[penneyduk]

whey george horne? or maybe tim... what a coincidence.

[LittleMike84]

Very nice car, wouldn't want to wrestle with such a simple traction control system at those speeds though.

[mattmaloneypresents]

You don't have to, because it doesn't have any traction control system.

[John56765]

nice car
