- Blind corners and hardcore G-forces make the AMP circuit like a mini Appalachian Nürburgring. I’ve driven on some of the world’s fastest and most challenging circuits and this one really surprised me. It has one of the longest, fastest corners I’ve ever tackled - you can take it flat, just, but probably not every lap. As for the twisty stuff, it’s FULL ON.
The helmet camera couldn’t cope LOL and flew off into the footwell so you’ll have to settle for a birdseye view which doesn’t do justice to the vision in the cockpit or the activity inside haha.. Most of these corners are blind. If you don’t have a plan before you arrive, you’re going off.
I loved the track and the racers that inhabit the place - the Praga R1 was exceptional. We set it up just right with enough mechanical grip in the sharper corners, with a consistent balance for that insanely long high speed sequence. More to come 😊 1min 15.29 seconds
My son and I met Ben yesterday at this track...
What awesome person and racer he is.
Congrats on the lap record Ben!
Glad to meet you!
I just wish I could hear Jeremy's voice describing the lap and naming corners.
He'll name carrots and eggs instead
I know what you mean - them were good days
Yes, this is the former Stig, but since this is a US track I’d prefer a US personality doing the narrating. How about Randy Pobst?!
insane lap, those things sound incredible and look like a dream to drive
they sound the way they rip - so much fun to drive, v busy
Glad you had a chance to experience my "home track." It's still a bit of a hidden gem. Been karting there many times over the past 5 years or so and recommend it highly to anyone nearby! Well done Mr. Stig!
Congrats 🎉
That track looks AWESOME.
its something else that place
Amazing lap! You made it seem so much easier than it really is. It was a pleasure for my son and I to meet you at the track. Hopefully, will see you again soon since it looks like you’ll have to get another video with the helmet cam and try to beat your own record! ✌🏼🏁
The little Stiggy eats lap records for breakfast 🚗
Some people say, that the Mandolorians are direct descendants of the Stig family and when he eats lap records for breakfast, he uses only the finest high octane racing milk. All I know is, he's called The STIG
@@Twinfire THIS IS THE WAY.
"yeah whatever I'll get you next time Collins!"
-Jimmy Broadbent, probably
That looks a great course. I like it when there are elevations. Perfect !
It's certainly a rollercoaster!
The elevation change is quite fun, and as usual the effect in person is greater than you can capture on a camera.
This track holy cow it's glorious! My favourite parts are 1:13 with that right-hand kink exactly after a rise like it's designed to throw you off and the final three long sweeping curves. Crazy fast T14 and T15 that just don't end and when they finally do you're already have to be set up for another crazy fast sweeper the other way!
Oh yeah congrats 😃🙌. It takes crazy good driving to set a blistering lap time like that 😄
Moses sandals, they have REALLY nailed the styling on this thing! It has actually taken 1st place as my favourite supercar from Koenigsegg! Even though it looks extreme it's so subtle at the same time, a very difficult thing to pull off, makes a Veyron in any form look like a big lump of ugly! Congrats to the design team, you should be very proud and satisfied with your work.
Some say he once accepted a bribe, in form of girl scout cookies, and that he left his first job because of his allergic reaction to office gossip.
they wouldn't cough up the cookies
Balls and skill, a rare combination indeed.
Good job! Really nice video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Bah i could have done that…..🤪……i really appreciate the way you point the nose into a corner precisely at every turn…..no jinking tires etc just an aimed proper shot like you are firing a rifle…..well done!👍👍
It pays to be quite precise with the R1, if you get the nose in well then you can get the hammer down fast n hard
Awesome
Congrats. Intense on-board footage. ❤
I love how the barriers for a not insignificant portion of the track are just large mounds of dirt and foliage.
and close !
Wow...that Praga makes that beautiful track seem very short!
I really wish Ben could take these cars around Dunsfold. In an older series of Top Gear, Jeremy did a test between modern cars vs classic racers and joked that one day you'll be able to buy a car as fast as a V10 Renault F1 car. I think he's probably right. 20 years on, I bet some of these cars could get around Dunsfold in under a minute.
7am sunday morning(UK time) would be a good call, **cough** just saying.
Woah, that's such a cool thumbnail!
He'll figure it out
Ya cone good , Ben! I managed to keep my hands off the OS bar the whole way- but just barely! Great drive- and a great car- it seemed to go and stay where ever you put it o the track. I think I might want a seat belt next time!
haha - defo recommended
Nice
Great run!!!!
Sometimes I forget how fast those Praga's are. The pilot's not bad, either 👊
They are RAPID.
Stig rhymes on quick!
Quite decent lap for the record. Maybe a tenth or so left? Ben???
haha - for you `Kevin I'll try and find it!
"Blind over crest"
I had not realised until now how many were. It is like a B road you have not been down before much and have to remember.
yes v similar
Blend line violation at pit out 😮
Wiper blade is like a drag brake !!
Охриненный трэк, и эта стрёмная прага оказалась даже быстрее чем я думал, сила движка гтр💪
*хотя рено тоже💪
Р1 2.0 атм 210лс
Р1р формула рено 2.0 395лс
Cool track! Is it also in iRacing or Gran Turismo? Cuz it feels soo familiar, but idk.
It's an add-on for PC Assetto Corsa
not sure - I heard the kart track is
Great
Nice..!
Am I the only one who said out loud "Annnnd aCROSS THe line..." when he passed the start finish?
Интересно на сколько близко будет богемия или богема к этому времени, думаю что не очень
Like Big Daddy used to say *'EASY, EASY'*
I don't remember that - but .. ok!
@@BenCollinsDrives Just refuring to you getting a lap record, which was, EASY, for you. (That was Big Daddy's catchphrase, English wrestler from 70's - 80's. 😉
The Stig = Sexiest driver ever....Yeah, I have a mancrush on Ben.
I think thats ok :)
