The Stig’s secret subterranean lair is the perfect place to make a lot of noise with a lot of noisy cars. Welcome to Top Gear Tunnel Run.
In the seventh and final episode of our series, our tame racing driver might have saved the best until last, as The Stig welcomes the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro to our special tunnel.
Named after a mythical Norse maiden, Aston’s extreme, track-only version of the Valkyrie road car is as wild as track day toys get. With a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 co-designed with Cosworth, it revs to over 11,000rpm and screams like an old-school F1 car.
Join The Stig, and host Becky Evans, to hear this amazing V12 in action…
Top Gear Tunnel Run is sponsored by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority

Engine: 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12
Power: 1,150bhp

Adrian Newey is too good❤ the tunnel content is cool, but add variety. Like do some topgear track lap too. Going down a straight line doesnt show the cars talents😢 It's just cheap and simple low budget content. All you need is, stig, car, robot eat head, a few go pros and 1 insta360 camera on the back. Oh and can't forger the wheel the rotates the car to go back. Come on BBC what happened

@loonatticat 14 дней назад

They choose a tunnel because it’s the best kind of structure to accentuate loud engine noise. But they choose one that is visually awesome, but cold, wet and too small for safe running at full throttle. I don’t want necessarily want to see them bin it into the wall just we can hear some cool sounds. (Poor James of the REAL Top Gear almost killed himself doing that recently) So here, we have an 11,000 rpm V12 and “the STIG” was able to do what, half throttle at most? Did anyone see his max rpm? So anticlimactic and a waste of resources: a brilliant film crew with access to a pinnacle machine that most of us will never see or hear in person. The concept is great. At some point, you have to recognize the limitation and match you concept to workable conditions if you want to achieve the desired result. This is a perfect example of failure to do so. That’s what was so great about Clarkson. HE would have watched this and said “we’re not broadcasting that.” If you’re going to continue using the identity that HE built, please try to channel your inner ‘Jeremy’ and do things correctly.
