Wow, this video takes me back to a simpler time. Dreaming of these rides and the wide open road. No internet, no social updates, just friends, cars and cartoons!
It makes me sad that this is all over and long gone already All i can say is thank you for what you have done best motoring and Japan You guys are legends
Takes a lot of skill to throw a F1 around like that on the rain! Especially a car with no ABS and traction control. Reason why I love this channel so much, even though I understand almost nothing of Japanese HAHAHA
this was insane!! I know it sounds silly.. but im playing a lot Assetto Corsa which has really decent physics.. and the mclaren f1 is one of the hardest cars to drive.. really a diva which tends to kill u if ur not carefull. and i guess there is a reason why so many people crashed their F1 in real life. Still.. i need this car.
Nah the most iconic were the Porsche 959, the Ferrari F40 the Jaguar XJ220 and the Bugatti EB110...they all with McLaren F1 at top, were the hypercars of its Time
it could just be topped if they paired the F1 with an F40, F50, Diablo, Jaguar XJ220 and maybe in later episodes with the Carrera GT, Mclaren SLR, Lexus LFA and Bugatti Veyron :000
@@mr8I7 Ya like playing the original Japanese version of GT1 aside from the tracks it very much feels like a Best Motoring game. The US/European versions less so as things were changed slightly. It's a shame they never got Tskuba in the game until GT4 really.
doing the handling test of the S on the curved rain soaked road at speed is insane, especially nerve wracking watching them do it with the F1. Also, damn that F1 is so fast it spanked the 650hp Supra.
I still think the Mclaren F1 is the worlds greatest car in relation to the technology and material sciences available at the time. It’s like the moon landing of cars.
These guys look (clothing wise) like they came out of their office at Casio HQ to drive the hell out of these cars! Awesome video! 90's Japan was amazing!
I still love that car, even though there are much faster ones out there at this point in time. The design is absolutely marvelous, even if it shows some sign of aging. And the fact it doesn't supplement any help with turbos or superchargers feels more tempting. Sad that it's so sought after only a filthy-rich person can get hands on it.
McLaren F1: fastest car of the 20th century, but it was even more: Gordon Murray’s whole reason for retiring as Brabham F1 boss and taking Denis’ offer at McLaren. It was Murray’s “big bad NSX”, took Hondas philosophy yo the extreme. A super car that was downright comfortable to drive. He begged Honda on 2 occasions to supply the engine but they were post Soichiro Honda and would not agree to supply the engine. Murray’s impression of his own NSX and first its prototype was the direction for the F1.
It's so strange to see the F1 around these cars, today it worth around 20M and you can get an NSX for 100k, that's a 200x difference... if somebody would sell an F1, maybe more.
imo, the McLaren F1 is still the top mechanically engineered production car ever. The reason I say that is, the first production car to finally beat it was the Bugatti Veyron, and it had over 1,000HP. The McLaren F1 only had 550-600hp, and it dominated vehicles even in a drag race that vastly more power than it. The handling was top notch, and the center seating is original and one of a kind. It's a drivers car tho, with no electronic assists, meaning if you aren't a road course racer that can competently heel toe down shift, and brake late for corners properly, then you're not meant for a "drivers car". Most modern cars anyone can jump in and go fast with all the electronic assists (and people still crash them even with all the help they give)
How fitting. U could literally add the engine power from the NSX to the Ferrari to get the hp output of the Mclaren F1 ^^ but the Mclaren is still 400kg lighter then the Ferrari. And has less unsprung mass, way higher regidity and a superior seating position and aerodynamics. This car was the absolute pinnacle of its time and is still an engeneering masterpiece. If money was absolute irrelevant for me, i would get myself an F1. This raw mechanical monster is pure perfection.
agreed. i usually don't even like the sound of V12s, i find the aventador for example to have a very annoying sound. but that bmw v12 sounds like heaven.
Modern supercars don't excite me like the ones from this era did. To this day, I would become infinitely more excited over seeing a really mint 355 over say a 296 gtb. The cars had more should or passion or something. I don't know what it is. Everything is just fast as fug nowadays, but everything feels the same. Just another cool, fast car, but lacking whatever it was that used to give something like a Ferrari that bit of extra oopmh that elevated them over their competitors.
Mclaren F1 had top speed of 386 kmh (240 mph) and Veryron was only 21 kmh faster, or 13 mph. F1 had engine with 618 HP and Veyron 987 HP. F1 was built in 1992 and Veyron in 2005. Now, you tell me which one is more impressive... Even modern cars cant go that fast with only 618 HP.
not to mention the f1, in addition to being that fast in a straight line, was really built for cornering. it dominated in touring car championship races as well as winning the 24 hours of le mans. straight line speed wasn't even its forte and it excelled at it. (granted the racing versions had much shorter gears and a HDK, but it's still impressive) to this day, it is the fastest naturally aspirated car ever built, and given the trend of EVs and small displacement turbocharged engines today, it will probably hold that record for the rest of history. that is really something.
The opening scene and car introductions feel exactly like those in Gran Turismo: majestic and magnificent
Absolutely love retro japan automotive presentation
This makes me realize how much of Gran Turismo’s aesthetic must have come from this show.
Wow, this video takes me back to a simpler time. Dreaming of these rides and the wide open road. No internet, no social updates, just friends, cars and cartoons!
Imagine being the person told to go simulate throwing a mclaren f1 at the wall . what an era
後のハイパーカーの先駆けであり、NSXのような日常的に使えるGTカーとして開発されながら当時のツーリングカーレースで圧倒的な戦闘力を誇った名車中の名車だと思う。
事実上の後継としてゴードン・マレーよりT-50が登場したが、それでも尚この車の素晴らしさが褪せることはないだろう。
The opening cinematography 🫶🏽🥹
It makes me sad that this is all over and long gone already
All i can say is thank you for what you have done best motoring and Japan
You guys are legends
スーパーカーバトルのオープニングの演出、やっぱええなぁ…
この「ビデオ」持ってました。もう本当に何っっっ回も観ました。
冒頭のマクラーレンF1のエンジン始動からの空ぶかしが、あまりにも衝撃的過ぎて。。
現在も排気系で色々と努力して、いい音を出しているクルマはあるかもしれませんが
今でも、このマクラーレンF1を超えるエンジン音がするクルマは無いんじゃないかと思っております。
（実物を聴いたことはありませんが）
加えて、F355が本当に好きです。もう所有することは叶いませんが、本当に憧れのクルマです。

I love how the japanese make it about the cars and dont shove their face in every scene nonstop
What a sophisticated start to this video!!! So much quality went into making this show. Like gran turismo menus before gran turismo haha
I think part of Kaz's vision for GT was to make a Best Motoring for the gaming world. I think he succeeded. 👍

700馬力近くあってトルクお化けで、しかもグリップもそこまで望めないタイヤをこんなにスムーズかつ適切にスタートさせてるのが流石プロとしか
Gan-san beating the recorded 0-400m in the F1 on his first drive, legendary driver!!
12:40「マクラーレン、カタログより早いタイムをマーク！」
元さんヤバすぎｗ
1990's Japanese lounge piano music... I just love that Playstation 1 Gran Turismo feeling you know where Yamauchi Kazunori got the inspiration
The days when you could thrash a maclaren in the rain because it wasn’t worth £20,000,000 😂
Well, nobody makes this kind of beast 😅
355,F1, 993 and NSX in one video? Ok, I love it!
Imagine sliding a Mclaren f1 in heavy rain towards a guardrail on a steeply banked corner. This could never happen today.
雨の中のガンさんスラローム痺れますね。
I love the gritty blue cinematography of the late 90's .. what a cool time to be around
McLaren flames out the exhaust at 16:12 😯
its THE mashine!! Legendary!
McLaren F1 is really ahead of its time. Even by today’s standard it’s super fast.😮
Jay Leno loves his. He mentions it in nearly every one of his Jay Leno's Garage videos.
At least 15 years ahead
It is STILL the fastest car with a naturally aspirated engine in the world!
Gran Turismo real life ❤
So funny to watch how much they thrashed that F1, especially knowing the value of them nowadays 😅
ガンさんと大井さんのやり取りが好きすぎる

Mclaren F1, the best sports cars ever made
11 second quarter mile in 1995 from a production car was insane. Mclaren F1 is a missile any day of the week

I rember renting this episode on VHS tape from the local Japanese bookstore and kept re-watching every bit if it. Classic!

this is just incredible. only the japanese could produce a video like this
ついにこの映像出してきたかー
長かった
Slalom sliding a McLaren F1 in the rain, what a driver 👍😲
Damn 11.045 1/4mile time is still superfast nowadays.
And on terrible mid 90s tires.
The presentation of the cars in the garage, at the start of the video, is extremely artistic. Absolutely love it! 💗
12:40 it’s so cool to see the f1 driven in his prime
Why are you assuming it's a he and not a she?

glad I'm not the only one who can't stand them

これVHSビデオ買ったころからの映像で、今見てもワクワクします。ヴェイルサイドスープラは憧れでしたね。その昔「じゃじゃ馬」という言葉が車にも使われていましたが、実用にそぐわないけど、欧米のスーパーカーと対峙できるかもしれないGTRやスープラに熱視線(死語)を送ったわけですｗ

I had to hold my breath watching the McLaren F1 being manhandled like that, on the wet, with armco waiting to punish a mistake... wow...

Great vid! I've seen bits over the years. Thanks for all the recent uploads, definitely some great video for the next generation to see!
I used to have this on VHS 😄
certified Best MOTORing classic
Gansan is such an OG. Powershifting that 911 like a boss!
How fitting. U could literally add the engine power from the NSX to the Ferrari to get the hp output of the Mclaren F1 ^^
but the Mclaren is still 400kg lighter then the Ferrari. And has less unsprung mass, way higher regidity and a superior seating position and aerodynamics.
This car was the absolute pinnacle of its time and is still an engeneering masterpiece.
If money was absolute irrelevant for me, i would get myself an F1.
This raw mechanical monster is pure perfection.
The only words I know in Japanese are "hachi" and "roku." I still watched the whole thing.
The intro to this video was Genius!
Lengedary, thanks for your sharing.
丁度先ほど、ゴードン・マレー オートモーティブも動画を上げていましたね～

agreed. i usually don't even like the sound of V12s, i find the aventador for example to have a very annoying sound. but that bmw v12 sounds like heaven.
are we gonna talk about this guy's shifting technique 😲
McLaren F1 is one of the best cars ever made 💯
Daewoo Matiz is better
Not, One of, THE BEST OF ALL TIMES

Cars like the 296 are far too fast for the public roads. They'd embarrass most racing cars in a straight line they're that fast.
I feel the same. The only modern supercar that really gets my attention now is the T50 from Gordon Murray
@@xXVibrantSnowXx then you don’t know anything about cars, it is THE modern day McLaren F1

16:42 just imagine the insurance company watching the TV and seeing him thrash the F1 in the rain...
in that time it was worth a fraction of todays value :D but ye still sketchy :D
basically the dream garage
man that F1 pulling away from the supra is sexy
Japanese commentators are the best
Totally love this area that cars are so sexy, raw, timeless🤘🏻look now, cars just looks and feels like smart phones 💀
No shit. And the McLaren F1 is something I'll choose over a pornstar not gonna lie
I'm gutted they deprived us of the Zippo closing sound at the start!!
couldn't understand a word the narrator said but I know the sound an internal combustion engine makes
