'Keep going. Its not completely on fire YET' ™
Someone please make these into bumper sticker's ;)
@@petesgoproxboxchannel5581 Bumper stickers are lame and look bad on any car
@@toohoney8674 That's why race car's have about 10/20 A Decal is still a sticker it's just a car specific sticker or a high quality out door sticker
I have a awesome sticker that let's me park anywhere in the city of Whitehorse it's not a City their suburb's .....I have no clue why that's a thing but I LOVE IT !
@@petesgoproxboxchannel5581 not a debate, but bumper stickers and decals are absolutely different. I don't know where whitehorse is but that sounds cool man. Stay medicated
@@toohoney8674 Ok but ........
(Decal is still a sticker it's just a car specific sticker or a high quality out door sticker)
Funny how I NEVER SAID THEY WEREN'T DIFFERENT !!!!!!
& you can get them for bumper's
& yes i'm well aware you can get one's that just use static like oldskool tow truck's
You want or need more proof Google car sticker's it will give you DECAL'S !
DECAL'S S T I C K
HENCE IN NOT EVERY CASE A STICKER !
When your van is on fire, you best stop besides a refueling unit.
Need some liquid to put out the fire with, yeh ? 😁
You sir, read my mind. Van owner laughing then crying. Fire in my van , Nice job Guy.
this *facepalm*
Actually the one guy told them to stop there lol so really it's that guys fault not guy but the guy in front of the van holding up his hands
Then your name is Guy Martin a total Nutter.❤️
Guy Martin, the man who says everything twice in the same sentence :-)
It's a Yorkshire thing mate haha 😉
anonymous user he’s from Lincolnshire
@@AidanMillward close enough, you ever been to his pub ?
anonymous user I haven’t.
I'd party with him!
"you don't take a van". Tell that to Sabine Schmits, who did 10:08 in a stock diesel Transit.
with Hammond as a passenger fearing for his life lol
That being said the 10min laptime was only timing from the bridge at the straight’s end to the gantry at the straight’s start, so the time would have perhaps 30sec+ added on if they timed a full lap which includes that run down the final straight. Still tho under 11minutes of a full lap in a stock (albeit weight reduced and drafting assisted) transit lol
As well doing this seemingly in "Tagesfahrten"-traffic, as every normal delivery van driver would^^
One very slight difference she drove that circuit every day for how many years how many times has Guy driven it .
Don't take a van and two vans have been on and gone well tho what about the coach if that's actually been on there which I thinks in a video or just the thumbnail and faked
love those new "street shoe" looking fireproof racing boots!!
I love how they modded the crap out of that thing but kept the stock pedalry.
I would love to see Sabine Schmitz do a lap in that van...
Better not could be very frustrating for 90% of people who think they're fast with there 911'ish racecar
Watch Guy do a TT lap - incredibly talented and brave - he can walk the walk.. .. A pal of mine says his pub also serves great pies.
Robert Blow And I bet Guy's most proud of his pies 😂
What pub is that mate?
Possibly the most British comment ever
@@Immortal__ marrowbone and cleaver ulceby
@@RobertBlow the prices are more than reasonable it seems and all the food sounds delicious.
Fire proof clothing health and safety etc etc and then work boots haha 😂 only guy Martin could pull that off and look cool.
He absolutely did
You'd want a thin sole to properly feel the peddle, but for Guy Martin, yeah no worries..
And Doc Martens no less!
Work boots probably are good for health and safety. In his workshop.
I was on my Ninja doing 95mph on I95 and an old rusty ass astrovan passed me.
I had no words
he hit at least 108 in a ford transit in tightning apex turn.
marshalcraft yeah...but we're talking Florida traffic on I95....
Yeah that was me lol you should have seen your face when I passed you lol
Tokin You should’ve seen my face too!
It’s REEEEAALL PURRRRDEEEE
But no one could since I wear a full face helmet breh.
Are you the balding fat fast astrovan man?
Heheh
Say that ten times quick..
But really though,
I appreciated it, watching it, looking down at my speedo and thinking he must have been at least 10mph higher...
Fast is fun😘
@@mysticalmisfit33 I tried and only said it twice before messing up lol and fast is fun unless it's the carpet making you go fast lol that's what happened to me on a hilly road and thank God that utility pole was there otherwise I would have drowned in the lake behind that pole lol (that was the only thing around there as well so really lucky lol) hit the pole I think around 60-70 mph cause the speed limit is 55 on the road (back roads of Wisconsin, full of hills and deer lol) but yeah it's fun when you want it and not fun when you dont want it lol really lucky cause my last words would have been ahh shit when I looked up and saw that pole lol
"keep going, it's not completely on fire yet..." Best quote ever.
I would like to see 2 things combined from Top Gear and let lose on the 'Ring: Sabine Schmidt and the Transit they used with a Jag 220 engine mounted in the middle.
Perhaps Guy should also have another attempt but with brakes balanced and turbo oil lines fixed first. I feel sure he could squeeze a decent improvement on his time too.
Sadly Sabine is no longer with us, so the Queen of the Nurburgring cannot take up this challenge. RIP Sabine Schmitz.
The things that Guy achieves! Lots of hard work but also lots of fun to be had for each event. Respect mate!
Ol
Looks
Guy Martin is such a character, bold, courageous, skillfull and he don't take himself too seriously. I hope his relentless pursuit of speed records don't end in a bad way. 😀🏁💕
When Wolverine decides to go fast, he wants to do it in a van.
Guy Martin is a real bloke, I'm driving a transit van gotta have my work boots on 😂
Love his accent .... bloody me dunno what he's sayin, but me know what he means :D
lololol!
Dale would smash the record in that same van, just because of the track knowledge. He knows that, when he jokes at the end. ;)
Well he's gonna need to build himself a faster van then!
Put a camera in such an engine compartment and a small display in the cab so you can see if something comes on!
Congratulations on the compilation!
It's a fire... lets park it by the fuel pumps XD
Congrats Guy. Great lap esp for the first lap. Lol that guy who had the previous record must be gutted lol
Sabina Schmidt is probably pissing herself laughing .
She'd love this
you mean Sabine Schmitz ;)
I got 110mph out of a Mercedes Sprinter with 6 motorbikes in the back and my chubby mate Chris in the passenger seat. Now that’s impressive.
They're going to sell a lot of *candies* with that van
Was a pleasure to help with this
Guy Martin is badass. He's the real Wolverine.
Loudest vehicle that blokes been in, try my LDV Convoy 😂
Try a race V8 engine sans mufflers.
Or one of those dreaded noise makers,, a rotary
What a bloke. What a Hero !
Guys - racing suit - no gloves and work boots...Brilliant!
Proper Job!
Hahahahahaha only guy martin would pull up next to petrol pumps in a van on fire, I love this dude he's just loving life
Great job!!!! And the most entertainment video! In a Van 😆! That was fun to watch!
I've never heard anything more northern when he says "keep going it's not completely on fire yet" hahahaha to finish it off all he had to say was "it'll be reght"
Surely , to make an official Van record there should be a 'van load' on board. Say five bags of cement and two sheets of plasterboard. Plus fifty empty coffee mugs And a wadge of credit cards receipts!
This is just a fast brick shaped race car.
Barry PURKIS indeed. Guy won't be getting any 8 x 4 in the back of that will he 😂
And a builders trailer behind full of crap so by time you've done a lap half the trailer shite is gone.
Don't forget the 14 out of date copies of the Screwfix catalogue on the floor behind the seats...
@@Mike.Howard Catalogues have gone up in the fire, but how true bet Guy's got loads of them.lol
so if one try to do a lap record with a bus, they should fill it with kids ?
Legend man well done 👍
Absolute legend. You rule Guy.
"Your not having my van boy"
I read that Sabine is going through cancer treatment , 🙏💖❤️to her ... lovely special lady 😘
Oh no, I hope she'll be ok!?
Keep going
It’s not completely on fire yet
This just sums up Guy Martin
good old Dale giving tips, great guys
Great job lad good on you mate
That's one mega proper van! :)
my mate was doing 130 mph in bmw m5 and a transit van come flying past us there fast 👍👌
*Germans laughing in the distance*
Erika intensifies
I want to see the turbo Barra powered Bedford from The Skid Factory take on that Transit... 😂
Legendary!
that van has to be the coolest sleeper ever!!!
Less dramatic music more engine noise. Jeeze!
Him :“im looking to achieve 177mph”
19 year olds in a chorey van on the M62: “hold my spliff g”
hes a hero nice one guy
There's more Guy Martin's needed in this World
That are real racing shoes! Love it
Steel toe caps?! Health and Safety on site rules!
that van is bonkers go on guy
Congrats, Guy. You sir are a Badass!! A warm Hello from one fan in The States, Texas. You're welcome here, anytime. As a matter of fact, we have a little thing called The Texas Standing Mile. I would love to see you build a machine to destroy some records here.
Go guy!
Well Done!
Awesome van!
Guy Martin is a Great Racer. Arrh whats a little fire, nobodys hurt all good
wot a bloke my hero go on guy
Ultimate flutter sound "SUUUUTSUTSUTSUTSUTSUH"
Ultimate driving
ULTIMATE FEELS
such a legend
haha, highly modified van and only 40 seconds faster than Sabine Schmitz did in a normal unmodified ford transit van in 2009, made me laugh harder than it should of :D
40 Sec. is huge in a van... second lap would have taken 10+ S more off.
@@wekker090 compared to a standard Ford transit with no modifications? 40 seconds is nothing especially over 13 miles, 3 seconds a mile for a highly modified van vs a stock van isnt impressive at all. Come back when you have a valid arguement.
Thank god for the subtitles otherwise can't understand a word hes saying
Where can I find the full episode? Met Guy and the crew on a track day a few days prior to their record attempt and they took in car footage from me and many others driving round the ‘Ring, now wonder whether that ever made it into the TV format ...
you should've gotten semi slicks on the back and nittos n01 in the back and nt850 on the front faster exits and entries but an amazing job you did there
Nice job guy hope to see more and hope to see that land speed record on the salt flats
LEGEND 👍👍👍👍👍
proper job
I remember my mates dad had an old tranny when I was a kid, he used to take it to track days and everything, always working on it. Years later when I knew a bit more about engines I asked about it and he'd gone and put an Austin Martin DB9 engine in it, he bought the car as a write off and salvaged the engine. I remember it sounding too notch 👌, and it went like shit off a stick too
Insane
Smoke coming out the back then stops the van next to the petrol pumps :P
My heroooooo u are best..........
good ol' incomprehensible Guy, biggest balls out there ;D
Keep going, never give up! 2 or 4 wheels. Drive it like you stole it!
Guy Martin definitely very cool man.
Guy Martin, bit of fire, we put it out. MUSIC SAYS OTHERWISE GUY.
Funny thing ...Sabine Schmitz did a 10:08 lap in a STOCK Transit with street tires and a factory 136hp engine. Guy only beat her time by a measly 35 secs with his highly modified version! LOL Also
noteworthy : She did her lap in normal track day traffic as well.
He reminds me The Smile man shortfilm with Willem Dafoe=)
What a pity, really, but the dream is still alive. Good luck!
OMG! Those boots look like my boots! lol
8:16 Famous last words.
He be amazing on TOP GEAR
I wish ups had these vans, that way I would actually have my package in time.
Its always the damn turbo feed line the causes a fire in most cases.
great attempt...go guy! most smartest thing, stop a van on fire near a fuel station...smart thinking hahaha :)
Now I'm only 1:22 in but didn't Sabine Schmitz drive an un modified transit round there on a normal Track day with just a Dodge viper infront to help punch a hole threw the air in 10min 8sec.
What was the man doing in the modified VW van?
Van: "a medium-sized motor vehicle, typically without side windows in the rear part, for transporting goods".
I could be wrong... but even tough Guy Martin is a top guy, his "van" doesn't seem to be a van. You can't transport a lot of good when you have a roll cage and a massive engine where those goods should be.
Leo Arc lol indeed , he won't be getting any 8 x 4 in the back of that will he.
From what I've seen in videos, people that know the track seem to be able to carry times better than people that have more powerful or expensive cars. There is a lot of advantage in knowing where to brake or carry through in the corners. So this wouldn't surprise me too much.
As far as I remember the Top Gear one was filmed on a normal tourist day, so wasn't the full lap, just to the gantry and that's why her time was so close
Andrew Buckle yep mate your bang on , I didn't even think of that but yes she did not complete the full lap.
Braking the record and driving a burning car into a gas station...that's Guy ! 🤩👍💪
Even if he didnt get the Record for the fastest Van, Atleast for the fastest Van on fire.
I've hit 145mph in my Transit build. About to get the twin turbos upgraded to Garrett Powermax.
Would not be difficult here in the US to have a built long block and bigger turbos on the 3.5 Ecoboost and give Guy's US records a run.
Lol your the man..👍💚✌
Not havin MY van boy
xD
Vans are the most diversified vehicle on the planet. Especially Ford vans I have seen hundreds of different modified Van's for specific jobs.
@9:00... how much extra rear track does that thing have...
Oh the Van burns.
Ok i parked it nearby the fuel Station!
"It's not completely on fire yet" :) :)
Please show that Ford build a little bit more, would love to know see some stats adn details!
In a hastag use but the hoonigan racing division.. #aintcare 🔥
I'd like to see Guy try to take the bike record!
Great vid but I'd like to hear the van too.
Ah yea, Guy Martin … who else´d set a bunring hot lap in the literal sense of the word :P
It's like a v8 super car looks like a road car on the outside but nothing like one on the inside just like Guys transit van
Swb Ford Transit custom with rear wheel drive they don't make them lol. But love the work boots easy another 10 seconds in them. Ive had transits vans for the last 15 yrs and they are mega
It's not completely on fire keep going.
Let's get that special Renault Espace out there!
Dale in that van: 9 minutes?
