How did you know?

@@ObristPlayep because

@@TheBac0nato0r He said it

@@KikuraKun The wing comes up at a speed a good bit higher than 55 MPH iirc

Playep u can tell by the revs and the gear

Zachary Thomas you don’t get the joke

Sure...55 *wink

@Bilal Khalid the wing on the LFA don't doesn't come up until like 85mph 😂

@@Ben-cx5qp Nah, he was going 55mph bro, look at the speedometer

Naz™ lol sure it was 55, all thanks to editing magic XD

Pog

theres a certain irony to clarkson saying that

PogU

The accent does it all...

@@Radcirxles name checks out

yeah cheating helps a lot with any eventualities

Also, there’s hardly any traffic on that side of the Salton Sea.

Speed and power solves many things

Considering he did about 160mph on the road it seems believable

I'm sure he was really laying down the hammer hard between shots, but there's always chance that the longer route was less congested and was able to stay at highway speed longer than the more direct route. I'm from Virginia originally and now I reside in Pennsylvania and this is absolutely the case the way their highway system is laid out compared to the way it was in The Old Dominion.

First comment ??

please explain the reference?

@@Aaleg there was a joke on a Top Gear episode from a few years ago that Hammond had his teeth whitened.

4th gear

It looks so fake ngl

the chosen one that’s the point it’s a gag 🤦🏻‍♂️

Especially in 5th gear 🤣

Lool

This cuts deep 😔 Brand new Mock the Week is streaming now on BBC iPlayer. bbc.in/35b9TQY

It's not really a Lexus it a Toyota

@@paulbaldwin5886 every lexus is a toyota

Aston Martin sounds better tho

@@Jordanball-ib3iw absolutely not

Or both lol

I'm betting that's not the first time it happened lol

Also - It was scripted.

Those fuses are the easiest thing to sabotage, and is probably the first place to look at when you diagnose a problem, so it would make sense

Hammond is an engineer Look at his other engineering shows and you'll see. He's not just a car journalist.

+TeaRex The magic of the editing LOL.

3:53 when he went 5th thats exactly 200kph ( 120mph ) lmao

Because that's the fastest you can go in America.

+James Broughton There's a lot of highways here that have a 70-80 MPH speed limit (and people that break it all the time)

+TeaRex No, modern speedos are really accurate, there is NO WAY he is doing other speed than 55. Sort of :D

That’s the joke... because the speed limit is 55

True. Notice how the speed indicator is moving a little up and down relative to the rpm and gear indicator.

It’s simply just because they don’t want to “ self incriminate” them self’s. It’s a felony to be going that fast I’m sure.

@@Kirk_Lazarus97 yeah definetly a felony!

He disabled the speedometer

that would be brilliant

Couldn't agree more. Perhaps they would be a boss where you get to race them. Or they could be a supporting character. Or they could give you a mission to gain money or something.

@@trevorphilips2947 Naah... GTA 5 style switching between the three, or maybe even multiplayer with 2 other friends. Either way, would be awesome.

Ever heard about NFS PayBack?

There actually is a grand tour game

Lol really???!

EXACTLY!!! YEAH!!!

Gotta go with the Bentley in the Australian mine shot. Yellow body on red dirt??

When your actually late but everyone else comes more later XD

KracOmi Music meddl

David Bello lol

You are good my friend, this made my evening.

David Bello I can not describe how perfect this is

well sadly, they don't know how to gather a nice group of host...

ayy lmao

Today, on Top Gear, we'll be racing from California to Florida, with a v10 F1 Car, a Nissan Leaf, and a surplus Russian Mig 29. Meanwhile, The Stig will be paddling a kayak from Cuba to Miami.

Au Yeung Ka Chon lol who do you prefer instead? Asian hosts?

Spot on

Alex Crawford the sandy shores area is based on towns by the salton sea

@@kylemontano228 Yep, Slab City and Salvation Mountain especially.

Yeah, that big lake (salton sea) is what the alamo sea in GTA V is based off of. And the highway Richard and James were driving on is what Joshua Rd (the road you are talking about) is based off

@@kylemontano228 All of GTA 5 is Based off Lost angeles and Salton sea

this pubelicker doesnt even know what joshua is called

And, TBH, they really crossed the line in that incident. Most of their jokes using national stereotyping go right up to the line, maybe pushing it a little, but don't go too far. The jokes about Mexicans were, to quote one observer, "as funny as a cold sweat and a sharp pain down your left arm."

Although Jeremy said he patched things up with the Mexican Ambassador, the citizens in the country of Mexico doesn’t know that they’re now on good terms. Plus Richard blew it for the trio by going too far and James and Jeremy were deeply annoyed and I would’ve done the same thing in sabotaging the Viper to slow him down.

@@Christopher_TG whats the difference between a Mexican and a bench. a bench can support a family

@@Christopher_TG no they didn't you p*ssy

@@Christopher_TG there is no line

Jay Wattley pretty sure that was editing trickery

@@cliffordhn I don't think it was. If you listen closely at 3:01 you can hear the train horn pretty silently as the picture changes to jeremy in the car. And when the horn blows, in both shots, inside and outside the car, jeremy is speeding past the train. So i think they were the same moment shown from two angles.

I mean, they are both yellow. Better luck next time boss.

Eric Lerma nah don’t try explain to him, clearly he doesn’t have the capacity to do so

Carson N S seems like you’re the only person who can’t take a joke m8

This episode really goes to show the left lane hoggers in the US

Apollo 99 they’re so abundant that james gets fed up and turns the steering wheel

It's not that hard with a car that fast and nimble

Shafwan that’s not the point. Those people in the left lane are required to be aware of any vehicles approaching more quickly behind them and are supposed to move over to the right.

@@JustinSeara Yes I know but often times people don't and are over taken

The Aston is pretty not gonna lie.

Will James Meanwhile the Viper is just plain pent-up badassery. . .

Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus Its okay, bargain compared to the LFA and the Aston

Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus which will burst into flame if you aren't lucky. Or worse, it decides you aren't going to make that corrner.

mutilator97 Hey, it's much more refined than the old Vipers. Give Chrysler some credit on this one. Those Hellcats are nothing to sneeze at, either. Though those cars are nowhere near the level of the supercars in this video.

Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus I can't like dodges at all. If their cars don't have some BIG design flaw(exhaust pipes catching the car on fire for viper), they've got terrible handling(viper has both).

Sean the sound of the lfa is beautiful

Sean hahaha.. People make too late to understand

The problem of this car was the price only

I thought I was the only one who saw that

Shit i just noticed it now

looks like hes throwin up some gang signs

He is sad that he will never own a car like that :-)

Just another loser who are not willing to see others more successful than them.

3 years late but 2:10 ?

brian centi best sounding v10 imo, but that aston sounds also very good!

+verzekeringsadviseur It definitely sounds good, but I prefer the Carrera GT

Did you hear one in real life? Only an idiot would say something like that without actually hearing the cars, especially in direct competition with the Carerra Gt.

Any car sounds good at 9k rpms with a tuned exhaust.... It's a pos

@@1BigDaDo "tuned exhaust" Is it really tuned if that's how it comes from the factory?

And the one in 7:15

Christian Koncz it either that or they have a bat in the boot

They also get permission to break the speed limit a bit

But they were only doing 55 😅

Let's be honest with ourselves, off camera he opened it up.

it comes up at 50mph

eyeballs97 yes you're right sir

also, when Jeremy says "In fact at this point we all had the hammer down" I don't think that he's talking about going 55mph haha

Lol I always thought that, glad someone else picked up on it

VlaD ProD thats a bid stupid he did that

A GPS is good for finding out where you are, but if you want to see all the roads to your destination and which route to pick, a paper map is far superior. A GPS may know a route there, but it may not be the *best* route there.

His name, with a strikethrough. Never change, VlaD.

To small

Backroad Junkie you can see multiple routes on a GPS..

"Yamaha is an expert also to musician instruments" I'm a musician, specifically a guitarist of 7 years, and I have to disagree. Yamaha instruments are sub-par to most other brands so I wouldn't call them "experts" they make good beginner to intermediate instruments, that's about it. To call them experts is to put them up there with the likes of legendary companies like Gibson USA or Steinway...

Fredrik Kalgren While i totally agree on the guitar front, I have also been playing 10 years, the keyboards that Yamaha produces are very decent for the money. I however am struggling to find the connection between the LFA's engine and Yamaha's keyboards. While they may be made by the same company, they are not made by the same group of people. Or the same division. Probably not in the same building. Possibly different countries. It does sound great, but i cannot agree with that information.

Fredrik Kalgren But is there any other engine company which has connection with musician instruments ? No. So this means Lexus has chosen the best experienced with sound manufacturer. They wanted to have complete masterpiece, even with such a detail like sound surrounding a driver.

I guess you can say that. I mean it's better approach than BMW's idea to make the M5 emit artificial engine noise into the cabin..as a BMW owner i always shake my head in shame at that idea. The LFA does sound a Formula 1 car and is the closest i ever heard a car get to one.

but its a piece of shit.....

I live in El Centro and Calexico used to be my hometown I thought of the same thing that they went into a one way street hahah !
