Audi Group B Rally Car vs THE STIG | TG Tunnel Run 

Something is wrong with sound. When she wispered to left ear of figurine the sound is played in my right ear.

@@Grubik Are your headphones the wrong way around :D

@@Grubik I suspect its so that the less audio nerdy people don't say what you said but the opposite, as they would have seen her whispering on the right and expected it to come out of your right headphone speaker. note that in the car itself the audio was 'correct' but again - well done on spotting it because I suspect 90% of people then wouldn't!

I’m just here for the Audi….😀

Thank you Top Gear give whoever's idea this was a raise! Now I need a cigarette...

Or alonsos championship winning Renault

Montoya's FW26! 19.000RPM baby lets goooooooooooo

Mazda 787B might break the tunnel 😂

Came to comment this. The LFA race car is the best sounding car ever made. 😁

@@JohnDemetre787B: revs everyone in a 10km radius of the tunnel goes deaf.

Yup, and Becky is nailing the right enthusiasm as host.

I can’t shake the thought that this could be the best car “segment” on this platform?

As well someone developed the tunnel just in time then.

Damn they finally got it right!

Someone feed those “birds”, they are hungry.

If only I could get that out of my audi a4, lol

I heard this car in real life. My head still tingles when I talk about it.

Have a listen to the Audi 90 imsa GTO. That was much more brutal

😘

Even without the original trio, you guys keep making epic videos and the best car content available. But you already know that ;)

Ain’t that the truth.

I'm surprised Hot Wheels hasn't made a casting of this yet

Now we need Tunnel Run 2 with LFA, Carrera GT, Williams FW14B, Renault R26, Murcielago SV, McLaren F1, McLaren Solus, GMA T.50, Ariel Atom 300, Lotus 72D, Rolls Royce "The Beast", Ferrari 458 Speciale, Pagani Huayra R, Pagani Zonda C12 F Clubsport 7.3, and Mazda 787B!

Mc12 Corsa, FXX and CGT missing your list buddy.

Good news, one of the cars they run has the same engine as the Zonda. So we are getting 12cly of screaming Mercedes insanity.

@@konaboy9677just needs a JUDD V8

and for a good measure a 90s Honda Civic ;D

Gordon Murray's GMA T.50

u lucky guy

I feel you, group B was the reason I got into cars as a kid being born late 70’s meant I got to go and watch these loony wagons with my older brother and dad. The feeling, let alone the noise when one passed you was almost unexplainable. My dad was a Ford man, my brother was Peugeot and Audi and I still have a thing for the Renault 5 turbo and metro 6r4 to this day.

@efro4812 . An age of excellence we'll never get back. F1 rule book was thin. Rally drivers were heroes and we drove cars you had to learn to maintain.

my uncle used to buy and sell these cars around 1985 times I was only 4 but I remember and man I loved the shape I'm an audi man real cars

You dont know how Jealous I am. You probably saw my dream car in its prime

God bless you!

@@Retheraq you to dear friend 😄

Keep going, one brother to another.

@@mysterygti thank you young man

Stay strong bro 👊🏻

The trouble is --> you dedicate 100% of your hearing to it and suddenly... she starts talking again ... 😅

It absolutely is 😊

He is written Röhrl. Give the man the respect he deserves by writing his name correct at least

@@MaxWeninger I knew I missed an R somewhere but I was in a rush

@@MaxWeninger Give the English language the respect it deserves by writing it correctly at least.

​@@dampaul13 to be fair it's not an English word lol

@@billbob213 To be fair, I was commenting on an English word and poor spelling.

787b… I don’t know if I’d want to be too close to that in an enclosed space… Dorito symphony for the soul, yes; but flat out assault and battery to the local eardrum

I'm with you on those two as I think that the 787B is the best sounding machine, let alone car ever made, but I wouldn't be too mad if they also threw in an LFA

I know they didn't, but I'd love to hear a Cerbera Speed 12 shaking that tunnel apart

You better have very good insurance if you try to run 787b in tunnel. In tunnel, any drivers will be lucky to leave with permanent hearing losses

I was thinking of the Mazda too. And maybe a FIA GT-spec Lister Storm.

👀

It’s never going to ‘air’. This is the RU-vid channel of Top Gear magazine. It’s not a broadcast programme.

@@AtheistOrphan This is the first video of a series so they obviously mean when the video of the S600 (shown in the intro) drops on RU-vid

Yeah, I'm about to watch it again with my Verum 1s.

👀

Giggity

Hot diggity dawg😂😂🎉

Yep, every single part of The Stig is built for speed..

And the Hakasouka GT-R too!

🙌

Yes, that's why people will keep driving fossil cars. Listening to the beautiful sound of a Stellantis diesiel 1.5 HDi while commuting is something to live for.

for binaural stereo is supposed to be the output ;)

@@MightySavagE Depends on the encoding, but it's a fancy setup so the decode is decent. It would have been cool if they moved the sound setup behind the driver instead of dead center of the car, but that's nitpicking lol.

Nah, no more people More cars and more pure sound Thats what this is all about..

@@vinc_ck6451 Nah, I miss the trio's banter for filler. Maybe they can guest-star Jeremy now that most of the world agrees with him, EVs are rubbish.

You are either unaware or have simply forgotten how the male drivers responded when Audi selected a woman for their WRC team. Ari Vatanen was particularly bothered for some reason, saying, *“The day I will be beaten by a woman, I will stop racing.”* 🙄 In fact, the weekend before Mouton's first win at Rallye Sanremo, Vatanen again boasted about his male superiority to journalists. *"Never can, nor will I lose to a woman."* But then, he lost to two women at the same time - Mouton's co-driver Fabrizia Pons is also a woman. Somehow, in a shocking twist, Vatanen found the strength to continue racing despite this terrible injustice. 🙄 After defeating Mouton by the slimmest of margins to win the 1982 WRC Championship, Walter Röhrl said he would have accepted losing the championship to Hannu Mikkola (Mouton's male teammate), but not Mouton herself. You can take a guess why, but you don't need to - Rörhl was clear. *“This is not because I doubt her capabilities as a driver, but because she is a woman.”* 🙄 At Pikes Peak in '85, when Mouton destroyed the course record, Bobby Unser came out of retirement and returned to the mountain for the first time in 12 years. Why? Because he couldn't stand being beaten by a woman. His nephew Al Unser Jr. later said, *"I don’t think he liked Michèle Mouton having the record. I don’t think he cared that Mouton had it, I think he cared that a woman had it.”* 🙄 When Unser's 1986 record was immediately shattered by Walter Röhrl in 1987, he suddenly didn't seem to care so much. Weird. 🙄 These are, of course, only the remarks and facts that have been actually published. Imagine what the day-to-day experience was like dealing with these kinds of fragile egos, all because you happen to have been born a woman. Ironic, isn't it - how many men complain about female-only series when they also seem to have so much difficulty with the idea of being beaten by one. 🤔

@@daedalus_20v yeah, everyone seems to remember Röhrl's Pikes Peak run, yet nobody seems to remember Mouton's. Case in point: this video.

If she manages to keep her waving hands still

Who cares? he's driving in a straight line anyways, it's about the car and the noise.

Well, if you just want to see the tunnel run, they've put chapters in the description so you can skip to it. Some of us (most of us, it seems) enjoy hearing the history of the car before seeing it in action.

Still?....... Get over it.

I can still hear Clarkson saying "SPEED AND POWERRR" at 7:32

Maybe best not to let James do another speed run in a tunnel.

@@Frack_Black a man can dream ok

@iamtherealzombie When I clicked on this video I was actually expecting a challenge like the one in "A Scandi Flick" tbh
