World Record Breaking Scalextric Track

[MrIliff]

James May is the Man

[MrIliff]

That was a pretty Poor Video considering the effort taken to get the track and set it all up etc etc. The layout was a bit too random, and the people in the video acted like a bunch of dossers and didn't look as if they could really be bothered with it.

Hope you donated all that track to some people that could make better use of it!.

[Trolleymoose]

What a DICK!

[iamamiface]

i love this man

[ojamalio]

Didn't James May beat this?

[toommpm]

@ojamalio yes he did 

[ojamalio]

@toommpm Okay, thank you.

[MorkaGraven]

You actually got power around that whole track with little resistance?

[SubscribeToKiyo655]

3:25 loooks like a battle striker handle

[Barbados24601]

Is that the TopGear track?



[rctrucknut]

I'll take the blond girl in the red

[SimonTalksWHO]

fuck them cars. look at them girls! :O

[brainslks]

Checkout those giant slots. A really big

car track too. I'd like to see those girls marshal those cars more deliberately, from the back.

[MrDbrennen]

TL:DW

[GUBALUM]

i like this more than the new record

[urbancowboyfunk]

watching these guys it becomes evident why Zoo is so badly written

[Neo2906]

oh my gosh....i would like to have this track in my basement. :-)

[spiderboymax]

Still keep coming off the tracks though. Doh !

[BraveBoySnapper]

Awesome track! Shit video production and are the dopey bimbos really necessary?

[ryanster246]

not any more

[applecartX]

I notice a jumbo jet in the background like the one on Top Gear where James May is a presenter. Was it done at the top gear test track!! lol

[therndvidm8ker104]

@applecartX no cos top gear one doesent have the original engines this one does

[Bodebodango]

I'd like to give those two birds a proper rogering!

[ElleottHeene8]

huhjust cant seem to find a prince who knows his way around a womans body

[djcharlyc]

Whose the chic in the red?

[LouieVenny]

hehmy cam is running abd i am really bored with all that stuff

[garbzzzz]

james didnt have the chicks

[erasercool]

hot chics with these dork's.....?

[DuffBeer4545]

James May beat em lol James may 5 mile track!

[beansterman1998]

james mays track was 3 miles...not 5.

[sweetoblivion6]

James May's track was 2.7 miles

[beansterman1998]

Not a world record

[sprayframe]

how did they power this?

[ArcherBellGallagher]

The one in the blue dress can play Scalextric on me.

[epshifty]

Gutted dude lol May rocks !!

[xxxstitchxxx]

James Mays was a mile past it!

[jondcrompton]

OWNED, by Jimmy May.

[beansterman1998]

James...

[sgtadam9999]

shame james may beet it last week

[BigMat478]

i would put the car off the track all the time on purpose to see the girls bend down to pick them up lol

[DarkslideDemon]

tough shit but that is small as shit compaired to james mays last night beat the record by 1.89 miles

[rebelthedog9000]

this record was broken by james may ( tv presenter) who when around the 1st ever purpose built race track in the world that closed in 1939 with scalextric track - 2.9 miles around the whole thing- he had to go through housing estates, over rivers etc.

[JamonJanom]

Best thing about it was the 2 babes running around picking up those little cars. That could even make the sport popular.

[suly2309]

that is amazing

[ps3matty]

That was fun for an hour or so. But the speed them things can get up is unbeleveable. The fastest which if I remember was the model of the 70's Le Manns winning Porsche that on the James May thing. It was 300mph faster than Buggati Veron.

[JBofBrisbane]

So how did you deal with the voltage drop over a circuit that long? Jumper leads?

[JamonJanom]

Yeah, how did you power that thing?

[elvislives2]

I like the sound the cars make

[mdivinc]

2 gay fucks!

[Jorzef84]

what a bunch of tools

[TheNo1Pampy]

We smashed this record today. 2.95 Miles around the brooklands circuit.

[Dogman36]

@TheNo1Pampy i saw that on "James May's Toy Stories" last night!

it was incredible! it was the first time the full track was linked together since 1939!!

[nakedhippo4512]

@TheNo1Pampy 2.75 actually... but yer it was AWESOME!

[RaceKing62]

@nakedhippo4512 it was 2.95 miles, largely because they had to take some long ways around parts of the old Brooklands Circuit, because half the track was developed up after the track closed during World War 2. they had to go through office buildings, over fences, through residential neigborhoods, etc, etc. great effort by these guys, awesome track, and great race. :D

[johnnybumbum]

@TheNo1Pampy whta with james may cause i just saw it on tv last night plus i live just round the corner from brooklands

[julianlee2]

is this the track made by james may?

[brooklands99]

No, JM makes his track this Sunday 16th Aug at Brooklands

[riru69]

That looks like alot of fun ! scalextric looks like fun too ! that blond would get it !

[M14A4BulldogTank]

I am part of the team of 100 who are going to break this record, we are going to build a 2.75 mile track

[smitty909]

Same here

[kiddafatboy]

researching then ey ??

[kiddafatboy]

actually there are 280 people on sunday 16th at brooklands,14 large sections of track and 20 people working on each. it isnt a ticketed event like the lego house so if anyone is planing to come knowing your name has not been put on the list by midday thursay 13th then the chances of being able to join in are very slim. so see you there! (if your name is on the list)

[M14A4BulldogTank]

My name has been on the list since the scalextric newsletter with it advertised in came out!

[kiddafatboy]

NERD !! , im involved with local buisness so i will be on the residence team! and we will win. saw some filming of James May at Brooklands Museum with a tiny track playing with 10 of the few hundred who are helping. its not going to be very formal. just three or for runners, a sond guy, a camera guy and the director, and of course james! please don't take offence to what i had said, lets not have a bad day! good luck !!

[MJallen88]

That would have been amazing fun for an hour or so :P.

When I was a kid, i always wanted to just go full throttle/pull on the trigger thing but I never had a big enough track... Would have been perfect on that about mile long straight haha.

Its one of those things, you might all be insulting them for acting like 10year olds but that would be every man's deep-set dream to do that I think :P

[nevison007]

10k for that you got mugged

[elvedin555]

discusting track would be so borring

[Andyisnotmyname]

Disgusting. People should learn to spell before they try to voice their opinions.

[AGTW31]

what would you do with the girls?arent you about 10 years old?

[sinimo7]

lol i love that track but i would whant them girls lol

[sinimo7]

you could ov made it 2 times bigger if u broght the traks from ebay lol but brill vid vrry funy 5/5

[Mongoose1358]

[alekesam]

Dude, if I had that track, I'd never leave home.

[Mongoose1358]

yes you would cos it wouldn't fit in your home

[alekesam]

Good point. Well, I'd never go home...=)

[GLove39]

wow, i would love to have that track!

[SilageGordon]

[thebearer]

haha i live in near margate! what a shit hole

[driftspaz]

[jetslayer]

o.O My goodness, on the straights my SKYLINE would FLY XD

[Taeko89]

[fillemin23]

[superavrillavignefan]

[BTPossum]

[Patrickakustisk]

[Apuril]

[Tmyers009]

[Rikster90]

Its the topgear test track isnt it?

[richl]

Campest thing I've ever seen !

Those gals and their heels ... lmao ...

[muzzy221]

UK ROCKS

UK ARE THE BEST COUNTRY'S

[eljaco88]

i think USA and UK get along just fine!

man that track is big! im making one HAHAHAHA na i haven't got £10,000, cool though, must have took ages!

[filthyfunker]

Its a bit too big I think, you wouldnt be able to see where the fucking car is,and going to pick it up every time it came off would be a pain in the balls ! Like having a 15 inch knob,yea its cool to brag about it with your mates, but at the end off the day no bitch can handle it. So whats the fucking point? Thats my point Lol.

[TheMarlonC]

Don't hate yo fam?

[StueyBaby]

lololololololololololololololo­lolol etc

[gkhelsinki]

hey, I wanna try that track!!!! fucking awesome mate.

[Sdryden555]

Brilliant track btw even though there is rubbish comments on the whole usa vs uk stuff I live in USA btw and i think we get along very well thank u very much ;-)

[tonyblairsnare]

FAG!...oj :P

[itginternet]

what a pack of bloody idiots !! i would be stacking the cars more to get a better view of the chicks cracks !! Fuck the track !!

[die996]

How long was this track??

[prankman6]

go britain usa suck

[jetslayer]

USA are just pure shit

[tacotastic]

...and as far as the video goes...AWESOME. I loved Scalextric as a kid and this would have been incredible. As for peepeevagi...what a great place to pick an arguement for a UK vs. USA "brawl". Good choice of video. Wish I could post more on the subject but pip pip, bout bluddy time i went to put the tea on and heat the scones - but first where's that damned son of mine...it's well past his evening beating what?

[peepeevagi]

Gah, i just love ya.

[soldout99]

:L fucking tell him im going hunting and going there by horse and cart...

[Mrgyn]

Quite surprised they didn't make it inside a building. Amazing track though.

[eiswurf]

Das ist die wohl langweiligste Slotbahn der Welt!Gratuliere!

[samshirley001]

that track had some length problems, with not enough power in places

[pjsmoulder]

if i were a big scalextric fan/collector/enthusiast, i think i would be quite offended by this bunch of idiots.

[AJSpeed07]

its great reading comments on youtube Americans seem to love causing a fight and it makes some very funny reading. they come out with the strangest things. why do Americans think English people 1.) talk posh, 2.) eat scones and drink tea, and 3.) have bad teeth (example of this in the simpsons 'The Big Book of British Smiles'

[MaiL0MaN5]

exactly

[cta10000]

They only know what they see on tv. (simpsons)

[Xscorpion4]

I am American and one of my friends is from  Great Britain and he has great theeth

[flybikesbmx]

fuck the uk vs usa argument, we win instantly.. no planes parked in our skycrapers...

[patty070070]

mary me

[flybikesbmx]

that just wins it right away innit lol

[Sdryden555]

ah well no bombs in our undergrounds either so i think we are square. And no cameras on every bloody pole and sign in America either m8 so u stick with Big Brother ill stick with my privacy

[flybikesbmx]

not quite, the big brother aproach isnt what you think, better than police bruitality over in america, every cop has a gun and thinks hes rambo, bollocks,

fair enough, alot of children over here carry knives and go round stabing people cause they think there gangsta, due to stupid fucking rappers, altho weve never had a school masacre featuring a couple of handguns, i count serveral other there

still id agree we get on alright

[filthyfunker]

Not that I want to get involved in the debate because its fucking stupid Sdryden. But no bombs in your under ground? No. Your right. Just jumbo fuking jets in your sky scrapers LMFAO.

Also, not condoning it. But while your safely tukced away the other side of the atlantic, terrorist fundalists find it easy to sneak there ,way in to our counrty, and launch attacks on us (and you,remeber 9/11?)so big brother is in some ways nesasary.

[peepeevagi]

If there's one thing the english win at, it's this.

However, the english dont win at much else.

[MaiL0MaN5]

we win at loads of things

[peepeevagi]

No. No they dont.

Cars, toys relating to them, airplanes, that's about it.

[MaiL0MaN5]

WTF? we are just as good as you are

[peepeevagi]

Well.... no.

You all "Were" though.

[MaiL0MaN5]

you aren't perfect. please don't be a prejudice bitch.

[peepeevagi]

You arent either. So one could say the same.

Now back to your scones and tea.

And poor sense of continental principality.

[MaiL0MaN5]

ppl are all the same. but your different because all you do is just criticize everything. Why?

[peepeevagi]

I visited Europe twice.

The english are mean to Foreigners.

They make fun of things that if i laugh, i'm instantly made to look as if i'm evil to them.

The english are bad people.

They made me cry.

[MaiL0MaN5]

well maybe you just went to a bad area in the UK. Just because maybe a group of certain people or just a gang made fun of you doesn't mean Everyone in England is mean to foreigners. i'm not being mean to you am I? England is perfect all over. All countries have their ups and downs here and there. I know loads of foreigners and i'm not mean to them. some of the british are definately bad but also some are definately good. I have seen americans just as bad as here and also just as good as here.

[peepeevagi]

I did'nt know the areas around the Queen's 'palace' or parliament were bad places.

England is a very Xenophobic country.

Seriously, every person gives the "outsider" a nasty sneer, and some places refuse to serve anybody other than the english!

And i thought what we do here to outsiders is bad.

[MaiL0MaN5]

Thats bullshit. England doesn't do that to outsiders. I've never met anyone who sees england the same way you do. Sure this sort of thing went on in Fawlty towers but that was a sitcom. maybe you just did something to them first because england just don't sneer at everyone

[peepeevagi]

The only thing wrong i might have done was beating that guy's kid...

Seriously, you say Texas around there and they just go >.>

[MaiL0MaN5]

beating up a child? no wonder they all hate you! Beating a child is wrong. you could've gone to jail!

you go and thump someone, nobody just walks past you as if nothing happend.

[peepeevagi]

But an English person beats their kid in public, and its "Quite alright".

You put the two side by side, and they'll all call the American bad, whilst Completely ignoring the Englishman doing the exact same thing.

[MaiL0MaN5]

no-one would beat a child in public. why would you thump a child where everyone can see you doing it and why did you thump a child anyway. Why is in english person thumping a child quite alright? thats not true, someone must have done something. maybe it was a hooligan and the police came to sort him out.

[peepeevagi]

I've come to agreement. I went there the year the bus bombings happened.

It's only natural to be shifty eyed at foreigners after such a thing.

Besides, you're English. It's Y'all are supposed to do. Be uppity and snippy.

Drinking your tea, eating your scones, and sodomizing your children.

[MaiL0MaN5]

the english are good people just like americans. i'm a child and i'm not all posh and stuff. i'm not being all "oh the americans are sooo stupid haw haw haw" I just think your stupid now for hating the english because bombs went off in london. we like cultral diverseties if you think we don't.

[peepeevagi]

If you like Cultural Diversities, Next time i'm there, I wont wear pants.

There's your Cultural Diversity.

[MaiL0MaN5]

i don't get it. if that was supposed to be an insult it was rubbish

[patty070070]

lol i hate scones

a tad stereotypical

tbh stereo typing is the orst type of insult, it just poves you about a smart as a block of wood

[peepeevagi]

How can you not like them?

That's just inhuman.

[tacotastic]

I seem to remember us Brits winning the Battle of Britain. Without your help I hasten to add.

[JaxxBunny]

I want one...

I WANT ONE!!!

I want it!!!

Cool as hell man.. Gotta start savin'! :P

[marq74]

So that's how those girls stay so fit. They chase slot car's all day long! :)

[loluntilmypie]

I laughed at the part with the pit crew doing IT. But bloody hell how much did that all cost?

[FaiIedAssassin]

good fun this

[poz81]

Geekishly funny.......lovin' every minute of it though!!! Hellooo pit ladies!!!

[yamabushi170]

Simultaneously lame and cool. A+

[coxyrst]

lol i knw them ppl woop

[xEGC92x]

this is one of those real sad things that oyu have to do

[superquadman80]

dude next they should make the largest carerra track or the longest scalextric sport track cuz that was scalextric classic

[bcenturion]

GOOD job to all of you,the girls looked great,and the cars did good to.best regards on this adventure.

[mrpickels75]

lol littel camara on th cars or not so we cant c the girls

[MAYBERRY1010]

[tayete01]

Yeah!

[chonch9]

[goweb172]

How hot were the pit girls!!

[sgk76]

hell yeah, that's a massive track, the grid girls looked the most excited

[cemtex1]

try useing a digtal camera mate!

[cemtex1]

they should have put a small cam on the cars to make this vid good!

[simargl]

A little cam, yeah. I've wanted to do that since I was 10 years old! Still do lol

[slowgsxr1]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

[funkgetreadytoride]

thats pretty cool!

[samus51]

WHERE DO PEOPLE GET THIS

[buenacossa]

The aircraft is the private yet of the guy...

[paktype]

WHY IS THERE A 747 PARKED NEARBY?

[MutantHippie]

i can only assume they needed alot of room so they used an air port, also nice vid lol

[paktype]

Um, maybe...but since when can a couple of kids use an entire runway just to set up their racing track? Isn't that airport busy? And I thought 747s are kept in hangars when they are not in use? Weird.

[CanGuldas]

Hehehehe, cool xD

[ryanfenton382]

that wa r8 funni
