24 Hour Racing Challenge! | Top Gear

only one man could get us back in contention the field was now spread out but in the next three hours the Stig climbed eight places then when it was my turn the fog came I was completely blind because the visibility had slowed James to a crawl I thought I could get away with some fog based japery jokes desert be straight off eventually the fog became so thick the race was halted and when it resumed we were in the gray light of a summer dawn when the drivers are all a bit dopey as James demonstra

ted it would probably be rude to point out to him that he's pulled up in next door's pit culture for that person was the wrong pick cast or nevermind it's close enough next door's pit was home to the Saxondale team who were using a diesel BMW like hours after the calamities they were now our main lines as Jeremy geed up the capacity claim the Stig made mincemeat but then 20 minutes later disaster the front splitter which helps with aerodynamics had come off and there was a monumental fuel leak i

t was down on POW he's five seconds a lap slow then the splitter fell off that we put on yeah it's all down to touching yeah that's what they do that that's a feature the Stig stayed at the wheel so after the leak was fixed he could go out again and even though the missing splitter was ruining the handling nothing was gonna stop it nothing right now at this very moment computers tell us the Stig is having a wee in the car and I'm next this speeded the Stig up even more okay it's now exactly 12 o

'clock as you can see midday four and a half hours left to run the Stig's work is done he's got us into third in class with a third fastest diesel and now it's all up to Hammond and then me should feel okay the brakes have come off it's just shared a bowl nice with the splitter coming off the fuel leak and now this it was clear our little Trojan was starting to fall apart it was also down on power and with no front splitter the handling wasn't greatly the car doesn't feel as fast as it felt last

night even I can tell something's wrong all that has departed to span a threat to me and having been up for 30 hours I Neal followed in constant rain losing my concentration well to wake myself up I organized a little prison for generally having a pay right at the end of Richard's stint we were still third in class but I knew it would be hard to stay there the problem is is that the Saxondale one that silver 331 like ours is 30 laps behind we're going to lose five laps in this next pit stop the

y've got their quick driver in there against me until you in three hours in three hours driving they're going to be right up my back bottom so this was it the final stint I was tired out I was sitting in a puddle of wee the car was sick and we had our main rivals bearing down on us please call please make it to the end of this race I beg off to stay endured Jeremy had to drive fast but there was a problem with that he's got to do two hours 20 minutes here yes well I did that he's got a last 2 mm

20 minutes on the same tyres yeah we can go from there now born of a brand and it's tearing the tires too bit so that we didn't need to waste time with another pit stop Jeremy had to preserve his tyres unfortunately though this was Jeremy he's just a 24 those will not last two hours let alone two 20 Tiffany know your pain reading those tires sadly he was too busy racing team Saxondale to listen generally it's Richard I know you're busy tell us about the tires do they feel okay Saxon dial-up or

updates I go missed again Jeremy had destroyed the tires just open Steve we have a tire expert in pit lane he's looked at the other tires and says your last combat we had to get him in Saxondale would rack up five laps why lap tires were changed but on fresh rubber Jeremy could now get the hammer down a satin doll responding to 24 boys just trying to take the Jag on the inside of the corner II went badly wrong if you fall off in the last hour of the race there's no recovery service should be tha

t's the end of us happily we got some luck the Saxondale team had hit problems so now all I had to do was nurse the car home Hong Kong is my guess this has been one of the best top gear companions of the Lord a Ratna bale transformed in ten days into a racer he needs to go starting to get a bit sloppy now we're getting a few mistakes five minutes to go and for the first time I felt this pee stain David among Goliath was actually going to finish and finish well it wants to make the finishing line

I'm just winning it on this man yes you
