The bit I found mad is where he says that "the bikes are doing just under 200mph here" at which stage it was almost 50mph faster than the car. It would literally make the car look like it was standing still if it went by at that speed difference, and the car already looked pretty damn quick at 150! 😆. Crazy

This driver is just simply from another dimension ! Heart rate at 140 bpm, but the precision of his driving skills makes him look like he's sunday driving right down to the Church!!!!! Jeeeezzz! 👍👍👍👍👍👍

IoM is not part of the UK but yes, we use UK road conventions (though there's no national speed limit like there is in the UK, when you see the no speed limit signs they mean no speed limit).

The thing you have to remember is that Mark was born and raised there. He could drive that blindfolded; he'll know every bump, pot hole and man cover.

I did a lap of the iom tt when i lived there 20 years ago during a practise week. it was a 2.4 ltr rental sierra cosworth that cost 50 quid for 2 days and was faf. just chilled at normal speed until the mt rd where u can let lose and was doing 120 ish all the way to the creg with multiple mbikes overtaking me tipped right over about 3 feet from the car on the corners . was unreal buzz. sunny day, no tunes and just the engine noise. great memories. love the tt track. is awesome on a push bike as well. i did 95kmph going down past kates cottage. that was med as well. prob even more dangerous that doin it on a mbike/car. lycra doesnt give much protection at that speed. thank you iom for bein mental

Years ago I meet Mark Higgins at a Subaru Big Event. It’s a big show that goes on every year he was doing autograph’s and he let his rally car rip in the back parking lot of the dealership. He’s got really good car control I have video of the Craziness.

and I thought I was a badass when i was 18 driving my 1.5 nissan Almera up to 70mph through B roads. this man is a mutant! the car seems an engineering masterpiece. love the sound. Arizona has some cool roads but nothing will compare to the twists and elevations of a British B road. not sure where you're from but there are a lot of incredible village roads in Wiltshire.this vid is awesome

Holy shit, its crazy people get to this level because as you learn the chances to crash and burn in a serious way a lot of times. Unbelievable some of the risks taken on a few of the turns

It really is insane that people race *motorcycles* around that course. Can see why it's an unusually safe year if only one person dies.

Mark is absolutely nuts man. Anyone who drives flat out in Isle of man has balls of titanium. Jimmy, if you feel like reacting to more POV hillclimbs or anything of the sort.... You HAVE to react to Sebastian Loeb's Pikes Peak climb from 2013 in that Peugeot beast he drove. Would be sick if you checked it out even if you probably saw it already. Keep up the great work 👍

Me before the video starts: "This is the kinda bullshit Mark Higgins usually gets up to" Splash screen: Mark Higgins. Called it. His Mount Washington run is also amazing (even though it was beaten by Travis Pastrana in a more powerful car). I think Mark is one of the greatest rally drivers of all time to not make it to the WRC class

I mean it’s just incredible and to think the bikes go even quicker. It’s just pure insanity. The kerbs, the shadows, the walls, the drops. It’s simply the best circuit in the world and these guys are gods of the course. Simply loveleh.

Jimmy you should come for a trip over, theres a simulator here built into a car. feedback wheels,pedals,seat, wrap round monitor - and a leaderboard for lapping the TT course. You know you want to ;)

Most of the islands roads are national speed limit outside of the TT fortnight, Our national speed limit in the Isle of Man is “de-restricted” so we can do what ever speed we please so long as it is safe to do so on most of the islands roads, it’s only really the villages that stay 30/40 all year round
