Love the "behind the seat" camera position. You can actually see how the car behaves instead of looking at a guys face. I never understood why nobody else does it.
By far the coolest EVO vid ever! Well done and as a long time Best Motoring viewer/collector I can appreciate all of the likeness. Please continue this and make it a series that happens once a month in all forms of cars. I think you guys are on to something. What a perfect format for exciting car racing/reviewing.
Would appreciate it if you guys can support the Hot Version International Kickstarter project! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hotversion/hot-version-international-english-jdm-tuner-video
This was brilliant. I've scoured RUclips for pretty much all the Best Motoring videos I could find over the past 2 years and I think I've run out. A recurring British version would be epic!
Yes! BMI and Hotversion are amazing! They totally deserve this tribute. This is great man, my current favourite car vid maker tributing my old favourite one.
The essence of best motoring has been captured perfectly! Would love to see Tsuchiya in this series maybe as a special guest, that would be brilliant. With regards to Top Gear, it's an entertainment TV show and its good at it. It has got nothing to do with sheer motoring. So no point trying to put BMI in the same category.
As a big fan of Best Motoring and they're quirkiness yet serious on the limit races, this episode by EVO was simply brilliant! Its nice to see a car show that mixes some humour with proper racing... Please more vidoes like this, I might suggest other similar comparo races. Again Brilliant video
Evo.... well done!! Honesty that was such a well thought out... and enjoyable thing to watch. Great tribute!! And i would LOVE to see more like this. (christ.... i would love to be on the circuit for one of those)
HyperLeafBlower They mostly tested Japanese cars, but I wouldn't say at all it was biased towards Japanese cars, quite the opposite. I remember how much shit they gave the GT-R, Lexus IS-F, Lancer Evo X, etc. when they compared it to European cars... and I loved the talk they once had about Ferrari. You can tell Japanese are very respectful.
Awesome tribute! Best Motoring was best motoring. And they're saying theyll do one again! YES, please! Not only was this a superb tribute, especially the intro (keep doing it like that) but the whole BMI style of these circuit races with slightly dissimilar cars is great as well. I think we'd all very much enjoy these BMI tribute races to become a regular thing :)
Evo team does it again, this was higly entertaining, just shows 300hp cars are very fun cars on the race track. While 500-600hp cars are the normal in this generation, we can always revert back to lower spec cars and appreciate and learn from them. This channel is really thinking outside the box.
Guys, that was brilliant! I had a laugh. But I think we can all agree that it needed more shifto miss, hand pointer sticks and most importantly, girls in bikinis.
I miss BMI and their detailed explanation of each car, even down to the spring stiffness. It angers me how dumbed down other shows such as Top Gear have gotten, where some stupid old man simply says "its fast".
They also tested crazy fast cars on tracks that essentially violated every single FIA track requirement ever. It was amazing. 700hp R34 on street tires at Tsukuba.
I try to tell people Top Gear is dumbed down but they can't imagine anyone disapproving of the show. I'm just not interested in show after show doing pointless challenges like racing trains, airplanes or driving volvos through jungles. makes no sense and the humor is so forced.
***** Millions of people watched Jersey Shore and the Kardashians, by your logic I suppose those must be great shows as well because of course, the masses don't lie. People still watch mainstream cable news...which we know are only notorious for being dishonest and misleading. My point is just because an army of people rally behind something as a 'good thing' doesn't make it so, that's merely a safety in numbers mentality. Enough people think the world is flat so it must be true right? wrong.
I gotta say this has been a great great throw back to the old BMI days... you guys got a lot of details right and overall still managed to put an evo twist in it.. bravo guys job well done
Best Motoring is actually the best. So this video is the best i've ever seen on EVO channel. Thumbs up boys, bring more videos like this one and you will find a lot of old happy kids wacthing them! Just be more "technical" with car description.
Wonderfully done evo! this performance car testing method BM/Hot Version always used is my definitive favorite. Compared to the "Let's slide around with the car and explain how good it is" Hat's are off!
This is EXACTLY what Mini races are meant for. Not to race against others like Super cars. If I own a Mini Cooper, I would ONLY race with Mini Coopers.
That was a fantastic video! I hope you do more like this EVO. Nothing like watching some BMI and reading the subtitles, but now...I can understand what you are saying! lol
I hope Evo integrates this format to the regular "evo track battle" videos. BMI had its unique eastern flavor and evo might come up with a western style track battles. they don't have to be as dramatic or comical but there is a good number of people who would appreciate people racing cars on a track. time attacks are also decent but racing them together has its own entertainment value.
heh very kewl guys, man I miss BMI and their races. And maybe look also at some other of their tests, they had it worked out and it was very interesting to watch. So please do more of this and without the race cars(except on occasion), just regular sports cars in a friendly shootout. It was so fun seeing BMI races, how the big bhp cars took the lead on straights, how ever present lotuses or nsxs passed on tight corners... Im sure everyone would love to see modern cars in such races. Though I understand that besides cars, getting a wide enough,fast and open track might be a problem.

They got the engines mixed up for the GP's
John Stramiello i was so lost hahaha
Haha yea noticed that to...
*DO MORE OF THIS FORMAT!*
This was brilliant. I've scoured RUclips for pretty much all the Best Motoring videos I could find over the past 2 years and I think I've run out. A recurring British version would be epic!

This was fantastic. Having watched hundreds of BMI track battles that was a very fitting tribute! Brilliant.

Best Motoring was and will remain in the history as The Best car show - EVER !
Thanks evo for this tribute :-)
Brilliant. As a Best Motoring fan since the 90s, this was hilarious and nostalgic. I really miss the show.
Please do all the next videos like this. Amazing !
Evo.... well done!! Honesty that was such a well thought out... and enjoyable thing to watch. Great tribute!! And i would LOVE to see more like this. (christ.... i would love to be on the circuit for one of those)
R53 FTW
R53 GANGGGGGG
I like it. Just proves once again BMI is the best car show in the world, ever. Sorry Evo, sorry Top Gear. :P
Top Gear?! Top Gear is a comedy, not a car show.
I loved BMI, it was massively biased towards Japanese cars though.
HyperLeafBlower

BMI was often comedy as well. Except in BMI they had a lot of almost naked Japanese girls. :P
Really? This gave me a headache half way in. I'll stick with cinematic reviews.
People of EVO. This is really cool. Thank you.
Awesome tribute! Best Motoring was best motoring.
And they're saying theyll do one again! YES, please!

One of the best videos I've seen on this channel in terms of entertainment factor. You all killed it.

Amazing tribute! You definitely gotta do more of these, guys!
Fantastic BMI homage. More videos like this!
Awesome EVO. Gotta give us more of these!
Really funny film, great homage to BMI! We need another one!
This is why I love Jethro- what an awesome tribute to a show that I also grew up loving!
Congratulations on your victory Meaden-san. As a long time BMI fan this was really great, thank you!
Fantastic Video guys, probably my favorite EVO video thus far. Great tribute!
Guys, that was brilliant! I had a laugh. But I think we can all agree that it needed more shifto miss, hand pointer sticks and most importantly, girls in bikinis.
More of this Best Motoring style PLEASE!! I'm surprised no one has picked up on it before!
Fantastic video, I wish all Evo vids were like this! A great mix of humour, real racing and factual performance.

racing trains and playing soccer with cars comes off more as dumbed down than fun
***** I watched half of the first episode before hastily skipping through it. The humour they use is outdated and quite lame. Never again.

This video is pure gold, well done EVO
That one guy laughs like mickey mouse
More like Tsuchiya
Best homage I've seen and one of best evo videos, property fun top quality, do some more...
EVO! This is one of the best videos you have ever come out with! Do another one please.
I gotta say this has been a great great throw back to the old BMI days... you guys got a lot of details right and overall still managed to put an evo twist in it.. bravo guys job well done
great tribute toward BMI and hot version! deserves more!
This was great! Loved the BMI format. You guys should do it again! Better yet have a collaboration with some of BMI drivers! I would pay to see that!
Best Motoring is actually the best. So this video is the best i've ever seen on EVO channel. Thumbs up boys, bring more videos like this one and you will find a lot of old happy kids wacthing them! Just be more "technical" with car description.
We need more EVO videos like this one.
Yes! This is it, door to door racing in similar cars with drivers of similar skill! Please do more battles like this.
My three favourite things, BMI, evo and racing. Think this is my favourite evo video so far sans ecoty. Also, love the footwell camera!
This is amazing. You won the internet today!
Wow best thing on the internet since BMI , you should do more of these! thanks for that tribute, it made my day!
Loved it, reminded me of an exciting Hot Version battle. I never get tired of the pedal box view as well.
Guys that was seriously epic! More shows like this please
Fantastic. Love the inclusion of footwell cams. Please please do this again.
That was amazing! DO IT AGAIN!!!
I can't say how much I love Best Motoring, Dori-Dori & all his guest host. So influential nothing like it so original. Good fun #EVO #BestMotoring
More of that pls!! Great Video!
Wonderfully done evo! this performance car testing method BM/Hot Version always used is my definitive favorite. Compared to the "Let's slide around with the car and explain how good it is" Hat's are off!
Love these track battles. What an epic finish!
BMI will never be topped as a car show & this is a quality tribute. Missing the all important screeching model in a cat themed bikini tho.
I love best motoring for these battles, you must do more!!
this was super awesome! you guys should do some more!
That was Great. Always enjoyed watching BM. Keep up the good work guys. you're the best.
Brilliant Video - great fun to watch :)

Awesome!! BMI is awesome and this format (benchmarking cars in a race) is really entertaining! :) More like this
epic video - great homage with an evo touch! keep realizing your dreams and ideas - i'm sure the results will all be that awesome!
This is EXACTLY what Mini races are meant for. Not to race against others like Super cars. If I own a Mini Cooper, I would ONLY race with Mini Coopers.
I race anything that tries it specially stz etc.
Great video!!! Please please do more!!
Excellent! Make Anglesey your Tsukuba and race more standard road cars, and get somebody to say Starto! Also great to hear T.Moody commentating again.

That was a fantastic video! I hope you do more like this EVO. Nothing like watching some BMI and reading the subtitles, but now...I can understand what you are saying! lol
Bloody hell that was good! Thank you Evo.
Really awesome. Please make more of these if you can.
Hilarious and entertaining! this is what top gear needs to be. keep up the good work guys!
