If Callum can build this race car in under 24 hours, he get's to race it for an entire season at some of the best tracks in the UK. The Caterham Academy series is the best way to get into racing, with 50 drivers on the grid that are all complete novices. They all learn together, how to build speed, overtake and ultimately race together.
This is Callum, he’s a massive racing fan. He’s such a racing nerd he’s spent HUNDREDS of hours in his simulator - but this year he gets to live the dream and go racing in the Caterham Academy. A super close race series for novice drivers, so I’ll be coaching Callum to be the fastest driver he can be!
So this Caterham needs to be built PERFECTLY as I’m going to be racing it in the Caterham Academy Championship - which is meant to be the perfect way to get into motorsport. With two grids of 25 cars, the racing is incredibly close! But, one bolt not torqued, or one spacing washer wrong - and the crash could be enormous.

Whoever cut to the footage of Callum crashing is a bloody legend.
Congratulations to Callum and to all of the Overdrive crew for becoming a real racing team! I cant wait to see more racing videos from this channel.
callum to F3000 soon? :D
@@alveolate The day Callum and scott race side by side is the day ill finally know true inner peace.
@@WhoKnowsMang yeah I bet thats the climax
The amount of content is insane (and the quality too!) Something tells me Scott has a bunch of money to burn and plenty of contacts ;)
I mean, being a pro racing driver can't pay too badly
@@BroKEnCaPSLoCk1 17 quid
@@BroKEnCaPSLoCk1 most of the time you have to pay to be a pro racing driver, fact.
@@obeseperson i was thinking 17.5
@@piuthemagicman you can’t call yourself a professional at anything you have to pay to do, to be a professional you get paid to be one of whatever.
We've seen how this went on Top Gear, this looks like it'll be fun!
"How hard could it be?"
@@Hybris51129 "Dont say that!"
@@shr2000 "JAMES, stop filing!"
I was watching both side-by-side (pausing sections and restarting) and the tone of each video is so dang different. lol
both are great, it's just really interesting to see two very different approaches to the same task.
Season and episode number??
This is the content we want! Driving tips from a pro to an amature and some close racing and car building to boot !
Building a race car in 24 hours? That's like trying to bake a wedding cake in a microwave
If I can do it they can (baking a cake that is)
i built a race car one time from the ground up in 4 days i finished building it in the Tech check line passed went on to race, i even worked on it in the trailer on the way to the track, i didn't get instruction's though this wasn't a kit car build i had to weld this car together i was welding at the track off my generator people thought i was crazy
@@shorty808100 that's awesome, wish I could do something like in 4 days
Not really, if it’s a basic car like the 7 it’s totally doable
did they forget what happened to Hammond, and he was driving in a really top notch piece of kit.
i absolutely love that this video is longer than the others! i believe your content really suits long form (20ish min) videos rather than the shorter 10 min ones! thanks for the great video!
This Top Gear re run looks different 😂
First thought of mine😂 only the OG'S will remember the original 😂
top gear reboot looking way different
Scott = Jeremy, Will = Hammond, Callum = James? I feel like Callum wants to name and file his spanners
@@crazycjk Callum! What? Stop filing!
Thought that before I even opened the video, 99% of what they do is just some reheated top gear idea
This channel is the greatest thing to happen in the world of cars since the peak of Top Gear! Keep up the fine work gentlemen! It’s second to none!
I was like "man, this is such a daunting task" but then I saw it all laid out at 1:27 and got that "Oooh, Lego!" feeling that Callum talks about immediately after. lol
What a fantastic investment for the channel and future content can't wait to follow along the race journey
5:25 warm red bull.... c'mon man. Definitely not prepared lol
Would love to see a bunch of automotive RUclips channels entering this championship.
That would be way better than watching RUclipsrs boxing each other 😅
So incredible!! Job well done guys. Great video, I can’t wait to watch you race.
This was such a cool episode and can't wait to see it develop into a proper series! Is it just me, or is that front negative camber 20:56 extremely aggressive!?
I know people prefer understeer to oversteer, but it does seem a tad too much for an engine of this power.
This is so cool!
Great job on building this car Callum and Will! congrats 🙂
I look forward to the racing video's.
two men laughing at "do you remember those extra fat nuts" got me way more than it should.
They went from 24h to wrap a car to 24h building a whole car. They're fast learners 😁
This would have been amazing content for a livestream. You bet people will watch you for 16 hours straight.
Brillant car in 1957, and still relevant 65 years later
Super excited for Callum, gonna be a exciting racing season! 😎 Overdrive killing it with the content!
I expect Callum to do quite good in the Academy. Broadbent already proved that i helps a lot with getting you accustomed to higher speeds. Knowing the tracks also helps A LOT. From my limited time in racing cars on fan day drives, i'd say something most people disagree with - in a certain aspect it's a bit easier than the sim, because you have all the additional information from the g-forces which are missing when you are just sitting still in your living room. So go ahead Callum, have fun and enjoy the experience to the fullest :)
The excitement I too feel with Will and Callum when you start the car is amazing! Very infectious. I'd want a Caterham myself!!
Racing in caterhams sounds so much fun! They are one of my favourite cars. Good luck for Callum in the races!
I've built two Caterham in the US, this video makes it look much easier than it really is. The manual appears to have improved significantly and the parts kits look more complete and organized.
And the have people kicking about who know what to do.
Which would you be more fearful of driving, the TopGear 24hour Caterham or the Callum+Will 24hr Caterham.. I genuinely don't know 😂
Atleast this one did fell off the stands, so imo this is better XD
"I can't think of a more frightening scenario than having to drive something that Jeremy Clarkson had a hand in building." -Harv72b
13:13 "Ho!" "owwwww" "Sorry Dave" is my favorite part
The relationship between them is very wholesome. Made my day ☺️
"There's a mix of imperial and metric nuts ?"
...that's nuts
Having raced a Caterham Super 7 in the US for over a decade, I think my father and I could assemble one in 24 hours.
For someone who doesn’t know the ins and outs of the car? That’s an entirely different endeavor. Hats off to the gents for giving their all… or thereabouts 😂
YUP! That's exactly why my Audi has a mix of standard and metric fasteners, because racecar. Definitely not because I misplaced them and couldn't be bothered to grab the right one.
Hahaha
19:30 the amount of emotional feeling, look like they will cry but holding it like a real man wkwkwk
Someone needs to get that professionally quoted “we’re speeding up but we’re speeding up slowly”
Yes, how did these two manage to get soo much done so quickly?
With 8 Hours to spare??
And it starts right up!?!
Seems like the chassis has quite a bit of pre assembly.
Also nice that the Caterham chaps expertly dropped the engine tranny in…
Would be cool to see an actual time lapse of the entire assembly :)
And would be fun to build this kit!!
Nice space to work in, with all the tools, parts handy, extra parts as needed, experts handy :)
Lots of fun, great video!
The cars half built already!!! Dash in pedal box fitted windscreen and wipers already done, electrics in
I also thought that European cars used the metric system instead of a mix between the two. I imagine the steps going "take a three sixteenth nut and tighten in to twenty-five pounds per square inch". I'd just toss the manual in the bin at that point.
From starting out off the bat 1.5 hours behind, then finishing with 8 hours remaining! That's a huge comeback... movie magic or are these two guys super heros? Was impressed that they knew the names of everything, good work.
I'd love to see them doing a £500 car challenge, where they pick their own and use £500 for upgrades. Last one was hilarious. Great video btw😂
Very nice result, the car looks great! Congratulations and race it in good health 🎉
10:56 been there bud, and i am a trained "professional" mechanic, not a technician.....lol
so happy yall were able to finish it! can't wait for the next videos!
This is something i would really like to do haha, just the building side of it. How Callum said "this is the biggest LEGO set ever" is exactly how I pictured this. I don't know why, (other then LEGO is one of my most favorite hobbies aside from customizing my little SCX24 rc crawler) but I really really want to try something like this, those instructions look so fun to try and follow.
5:17 "shall we speed things up?" Me: not beer, huh?
This guy is living my dream. I'd love to do this. I've done a few engine swaps and built a car from a chassis before with a friend. Not in 24 hours but it looks like so much fun for a challenge.
This channel is really just the steal the entire concept of top gear, right down to the episodes isn’t it. Can’t wait for the Argentina special.
ive built 74 Factory Five Cobras, 14 Factory Five Type 65 Coupes, 1 FFR 33' hot rod, and 2 FFR GTMs. along with some 20+ mustangs ranging from 1964 to 2021, AND put a new original spec engine in a 1966 Ford GT40. watching this is so fun to see a complete novice building a kit car
I'm really impressed not only achieving the challenge, but doing It with so much time to go.
Just awesome

amazing work guts really enjoying this channel, look fwd to seeing how you get on
This video either proves these two are some of the most mechanically gifted people I have seen, or that Caterhams are easier than expected to assemble. Not sure which.
Very easy to build, i assembled my friends for him in 30 hours with the limitations of only having a small home garage and the chassis on axel stands. Honestly with two skilled people and a full workshop it would be doable in 12 hours, the hard parts of a real kit car like wiring are already done for you. A Caterham kit build is 90% assembly and 10% setup work. Well worth doing however as you get very familiar with how all the components function making repairs and upgrades easy.
Yes lads well done, smashed it!! Looks amazing, can't wait for the racing content
Brilliant! Can’t wait to see how the season goes. Good luck! 👏
Good luck in the coming season, jealous and excited for you!
These guys made this task simultaneously look incredibly difficult and incredibly easy! 😂
Did anybody else clock the Collecting Cars theme starting at 6:44?
Yes yes yes your first race is gonna be remembered more than anything else even your wedding day 👏👏👏
I love this channel - excited for this series
Well done from the Caterham and Lotus Seven Club. Give us a shout if you want to share your story with club members.
Loving the channel 👍 cheap mid engine car challenge would be cool.
Overdrive, top gear, fifth gear, lol all the shows just named after the highest gear. Been loving this channel
Love it guys, great new series.
And that colour 😍
You guys did fantastic! This was awesome to watch. I hope you make a series about the racing season!
@OVERDRIVE_studios1 Get fucked scammer
The fact that the car is actually affordable is kinda crazy too
2:20 lol there the best thread for the job and then there is metric
This is so awesome! Good luck Callum and smash those checkered flags!
Great vid. Can't wait to see you race in this
One of my favourite episodes yet! Excited for what’s to come! It’s looking pretty to!
"This is Callum he's a massive tool" oh nvm I go the intro wrong
Looking forward to this series. Interesting build.
IF I had a car show, you could bet your bottom dollar I would re-make every possible TG challenge. The only reason I would want to make a car show in the first place would be to re-make TG adventures. Go get'em boys!
Beautiful content love energy and education of Motorsport u guys bring. Very fun as well as informative
Having raced in the Caterham Academy last year I can confirm it is a LOT of fun!🤙
6:43 welcome to the collecting cars podcast
Love the livery, well done Callum enjoy
I'm very excited for this! Should be a great learning experience.
Welcome to the Caterham race-driver's club! It's an absolute hoot.
Absolutely well done lads.
19:19 someone realises he's leaning on the exhaust xD
I was genuinely on the edge of my seat in the last few minutes. Great video, guys!
Been looking forward to a kit car episode for a long time. Cheers, boys!
So many comments already praising the great content you put out, I only have one small suggestion: If you do another car build like this, put the parts in a giant yellow capsule, as if it's from a giant Kinder Egg :)
The look in their faces when they start up the car for the 1st time is priceless
I like the Collecting Cars podcast music in the background, ironic.
I love the Caterham, an absolute classic and the racing is so good.
I built one like that a few years ago and did a video on it too. I’m sure you’ll beat my 300k views though! Good luck in the Academy this year! 👍🏼
I've watched that many times, before and after I knew I was doing this. Very useful. Callum
@@OVERDRIVE.studios Glad it was useful. I’m starting a new series of videos on a whole new Caterham build project so hopefully people will like that too. I’m also the Caterham and Lotus Seven Club video guy, so that was me posting that comment too. The Club would absolutely like to do a piece for the monthly mag if you’re interested.
Nice colour scheme 👌🏼, look forward to seeing how your season goes
it would be cool to get financing details about this so we know what to expect if we were ever going to enter the series ourselves. Plus how you guys entered etc. Sorry if you already have :DD Good luck in the races :D
One of the best videos I've seen in a long time!
Really cool, look forward to this series!
Well done lads, proud of you both!
about 7 pages of the handbook an hour? A little over a page every 10 minutes? I 1000% could not do that. What a fun video.
This was a fun experiment, good job . Can't wait to see those races. 👍
The car color and livery is fantastic!
Huh i didn't expect to hear the outro music from the Black Pants Legion's Charger video. Neato.
JAAAMEEES!!! Does it need a washer yes or no?!?!?
Love this car, especially in that area color scheme! I'd love to try building one someday
What an absolute beauty 😍 I want a Caterham so badly, but I don't have the money 😢 Congrats boys and have fund racing it!
Remembering that this car looks so like a Lotus Seven, and that when Patrick McGoohan drove one he ended up in 'The Village', it would be very cool to have the race number 7. Callum could repeatedly insist 'I am NOT a number!'.
Damn, Scott was Gordon fucking Ramsey this episode.
Congrats on the task boys! And congrats on getting to realize a dream!!
