The Porsche 911 Turbo and an ageing VW Beetle go head-to-head in an extraordinary one-mile drag race. Richard Hammond in the Porsche must cover the distance on the ground while the Beetle is dropped from a helicopter. Which will win? The Porsche or gravity?

  • idiot 

  • i dont like VW, and i hate the beetles, but this is just sad.

  • this is actually sad =(

  • where was the caravan on the X? ;p

  • god man i have watched the show like crazy but this is pure evil , to crash a beetle is catastrophic better try it the other way around beside you can find as many porches as you want but beetles, they just dont make them anymore. This was bad =(

  • amazing it landed right side up.

  • text this number (219) 613-4108 annoy the hell out of him

    this person is an asshole to everyone like it so it will be a top comment

    re-post to as many videos as you can

  • @Idontgiveashytt That doesn't matter, since the Beetle was dropped. Rest in peace, Beetle.

  • @dude2106 But the thing is that the Chevrolet Spark is ugly and American. Jeremy Clarkson will tell you that Americans make rubbish cars, and I agree.

  • @Spotty1125 It was cheap to buy, cheap to run and cheap to repair. But so is a Chevrolet Spark, and that is hardly the best car of the 21th century. : )
