Back in 2016 the production company behind all of Guy's adventures, North One, filmed a unique TT record attempt for Subaru. Watch it here, on Guy's channel for the first time.
Agreed. I remember a clarkson video where he’s driving a Ferrari 355 up an Alpine pass and instead of the glorious wail of that v8, we get generic soft rock 🤦♂️
@@stubones It's bloody annoying ay. And a lot of these videos didn't even have the loud music when aired on TV. It likes why are you people ruining these shows
Incredible lap!!! Isle of Mann, and Pikes Peak .. the two top "beat the clock" tracks (are public roads a track?) In my opinion. Both for different reasons.
Why is the steering wheel on the wrong side? This is in the UK and a Japanese car, both countries drive on the correct side of the road, the left and steering wheel on the right (see the RIGHT side!)
i had the opportunity to meet mark at dirtfish in washington state, he was seriously awesome, unfortunately he was heading to the airport and all i could do was say hello lol
@@dkinclonberne I gathered that, it was not what the headline said. It said a 170MPH lap. He might catch up with the Superbikes one day. He would need a 200mph plus top speed to do that.
"Mark Higgins Legendary Record Breaking 170mph TT Lap" Merely reaching 170mph DOES NOT make a 170mph lap. As someone that has done a 130mph lap I'm sure that Guy knows this better than almost anyone, but I doubt Guy himself manages the uploads & titling of the YT channel. @Guy's YT admins. Do better.
170 in a car is stupid fast, I have a bike I hardly bother taking out now I have children. but even back when I rode hitting 170 on a bike was do-able, bikers are really some of the craziest mfers you’ll ever meet
That's over 10 seconds faster than me on my old Genesis, mine was a while before this but still, that is some doing in a car, any car, I doubt you would get a Multi Million $ cars around there any faster, maybe that could be a new challenge for Guy? talking a Hyper Car company into letting him take one of their Overly Priced DiscoBalls around that fabulous track, after all, it is where Legends are made.
NOT a 170mph lap...the current outright lap record belongs to Peter Hickman, who posted a 136.358mph average lap speed in 2023 in the Superstock race...Higgins fastest lap was 126.9-mph lap average. Top speed means nowt when the bikes are over 200mph
Imagine something a bit faster than a subaru doing a lap round here. Or even one of those crazy 1k hp time attack machines, would blow the bikes out of the water.
Good watch but bikes are better, way more dangerous than sittin in a protective box with rollcage, bikers are the real hero of IOM willing to die to race balls of steel

Great vid, all it needs now is Guy driving his Transit round it 🔥😎
I finally met Mark in 2010 at the Mount Washington hill climb, top shelf bloke!
-----------------------------------------------------> I never met him
*outright dangerous. Mind-boggling fast. Razor sharp precision.*
GOD MODE ACTIVATED 🔥💥
Scary stuff..
If you can watch V8 Supercars, Australia on Mt Panorama.
awsome. simply man and subaru in amazing harmony. what a driver. respect.
You can see he’s actually blown away by the performance of the prodrive subzero sub
What is frustrating is the damn music. All these videos always have ridiculously loud and annoying music. It's unnecessary, the engine is the music

Agreed i wanna hear the engine.
Nice video but when are we getting some more Guy TV programs?
Incredible lap!!!
Isle of Mann, and Pikes Peak .. the two top "beat the clock" tracks (are public roads a track?) In my opinion. Both for different reasons.
I love the bikes but that was bloody impressive

Its because its built by subaru of America

........................ right or wrong, MY COUNTRY -------------------> Hi Dave, what is " right " ? .......... think before You write ........
@@helmutpohl2762 what is right AND correct is that the steering wheel should be on the right hand side of the vehicle ! lol
I am more of a bike man but that Subaru (and Mark) is something special 👍🏻
Never been the Isle of Man 🇮🇲, love to one day
Same. Saving up for it now. Expensive.
---------------------> and visiting Greece : also interesting ( " oh my God , what rubbish comments " )
i had the opportunity to meet mark at dirtfish in washington state, he was seriously awesome, unfortunately he was heading to the airport and all i could do was say hello lol
---------------------------------------------> I also want to say hello ........
You can watch the whole lap, start to finish, on RUclips.
I love Guy Martin, please sub to his channel, but check the full lap out.
Insane 🤙🏻
So your headline was lying, it was not a 170MPH lap. It was a 128MPH lap, still outrageously quick.
128 mph average speed for the whole Lap. He was topping out at 175mph on the straights 🙂
@@dkinclonberne I gathered that, it was not what the headline said. It said a 170MPH lap. He might catch up with the Superbikes one day. He would need a 200mph plus top speed to do that.
Yeah he was maxing out just above 170mph
Less than 1 minute slower than the outright record. Impressive.
They added this car to gran turismo 7
It was in GT Sport as well.
Hope they add the IOM full track one day.
awesome
Absolute clickbait. Still a brilliant video and very worth watching. That Scooby with Higgins driving is unbelievable.
💖💖
kinda killed the suspense with the title there.
I don’t think it’s a spoiler the lap was 6 years ago . Everyone knows he broke the record
@@simpedros4766 news to me.
@@simpedros4766 He didn't break the lap record, he broke the cars best lap.
0:30 how does such things happen to an AWD car?
Loss of aero downforce .. essentially floating on a cushion of air, waiting to slow down enough for the car to settle and regain traction
@@paulcooper2897 wow interesting, don't you know where can I get information about these kind of risks and how to handle them?

I highly doubt u did a 130 mph lap mate
Stop talking pure shite

👍👍,
4:56 He spun it?? Whoa - and still got a world record time. Impressive!
It’s a sharp corner, I believe he just hand braked it around. Not a spin
Handbrake.
@@spaceshipearth356 I gathered it was a handbrake turn but the footage *seemed* (to _me_ anyway) to indicate that he overcooked it.
Wonder how many birds have died because he killed all their food on the front of his car 😆

Calm down. This is the fastest lap for a four-wheel vehicle. It's apples and oranges man.
@@Joe-mz6dc I'm aware of that, I was there watching...my point stands.
170mph lap average clickbait
Imagine something a bit faster than a subaru doing a lap round here. Or even one of those crazy 1k hp time attack machines, would blow the bikes out of the water.
170 mph lap, outrageous clickbait. Still impressive though.
1st
Hey guy if u see this i just want to be like you man hope we meet someday
Colin mc cray

It’s actually spelt McRae

Love ya guy, in totally non homosexual way though lol
Nobody else was trying.
No point because no one else would come close

Depends on your definition of better. People dying certainly isn’t better
@@simpedros4766 well to be fair the man did say “people willing to die” not wanting to
