As a wise man once said: "The fastest car is a rental car"
*CLARKSON!*
Toyota Auris, preferably red or blue :)
Nothing parties like a rental!
... in the world!
Oh jezza
Gareth: I need to wear my biker jacket as protection.
Also Gareth: Sandals.
Also hole in the front of the jeans
@@darbro7562 It's a speed-hole :-)
@@darbro7562 thats why you noticed it?
@@bigbadcivic2 low key bro
🤣 🤣 🤣 The sandals
Ripped out half the cooling system but left in the interior roof lamp!? Great video. Who needs Top Gear!?
I don't think alot of people need Top Gear anymore. It's more a need for the Grand Tour :)
I dare you to book it in for an MOT... Just to see the size of the failed list.
Assuming they didn't get pulled over on the way there.
haul it :)
@Honda 250R Insurance would be the issue
@Honda 250R yeh i agree, I'm being boring here but just that nobody would insure a car with no doors or body panels Haha.
John McMahon.. fyi my ae86 weighs about 860kg, with a full rollcage. So there are plenty of cars that are light and have mot and doors.
Sounds like someone been watching an old Mighty Car Mods video
Hehe yeh its basically the same title as well. The MCM titles > "Make Your Car Faster For Free
" "Make Your Slow Car Fast"
Fuck you beat me to it lol
i came here to say this lol
Haha was literally about to do this
and Hoonigans Crown Vic Drag Car
Theres really something about tearing apart stuff you know you dont have to put back together.
Are you talking about the car or his jeans 😂
Kevin Hibbard you don’t have to worry about putting it back together! Seized bolt? Break it!
@@captainhellhound7451 mostly just not having to pay attention to how it goes back together and where haha
yeah you get to have fun tearing and smashing it apart destructively, whereas if you had to put it back together you have to carefully remove each part with the proper tools and without damaging them
Just so you know mate, I gave you the 222nd like there!
Top gear : drives cars we will never buy
Car throttle : drives cars we sadly will end up buying :(
@@macnerd93 it's actually not that bad, it's low price, reliable and has good mpg, almost everyone thinks it's ugly and all but I find it quite pretty
9:17 there's having little rips on your jeans as a fashion statement, and then there's having a rip in your jeans so you can get started quickly.
"good shift mate!"
"Oi cheers mate!"
Bonded bros forever
My favourite part
Bromance... 😆😆😂😂🤣🤣
Can we take a second to realize how good Alex is at guessing the cars time? like he was crazy close on the first run.
@Eamaples Umm... maybe they ran the car and then he guessed 😂 because you know CZcams is all about being honest 😝
He has driven on that track a million times. Of course he had a good idea of the time. This is not Illuminati confirmed it's nothing.
Nah, he cheats😂
Or he counts himself
"2 big bois strip a japanese called "stacy"
And took her for a "ride"
He did say cum on Stacy
Alex ain't that big...
Actually these were built in the Netherlands. And it's a Renault gearbox.
They are pretty fun to drive and I have to admit very reliable.
@@polenit6390 Gareth showing off his dude parts at 8:27 :-S
It always amaze me how in my coutry (Italy) most cars - even new ones - are immediately covered in marks, scuffs, beaten up and mechanically unattended somehow somewhere while, in UK, you find that most cars have mostly healty/preserved bodies and in good shape despite mechanical issues given mostly by age and wear.
that's a none traditional location for ripped jeans
Actually it's where most of mine rip
polytv123 it’s designer lol
@@douglaspealing5608 same 😂
Of course you wouldn't know how common that is 😂
Got the OHS Sandals.
Ok, stop mucking about and do a stripped out series with a leader board. This is way more interesting than supercar stuff.
❤❤❤
indeed it is
Brilliant idea!!!!!!!
Steven Toms fuck yeah!!!
Yes, i agree
What about....
... a stripped Caterham?? :D
Anyone else notice his jeans were split in the crotch right from the start of the vid? lol
You can see clearly at 2:20
noo, can't unsee
And in the thumbnail 😂😂😂
Wait 'till you get to around 9 minute mark 😂😂
Why would u be looking at that part😏
Noticed at like 0:21 when he steps away from the car
Alex can you please tell us what happened to Phil after the V6 Swop It seems as if the whole project just went silent
The whole project DID go silent. Maybe he crashed it.
I'm a subscriber to a channel named Hubnut. It showed up at a car show a month ago or so and Hubnut was there filming his video on the show in general. So it appears to have been successful.
I believe that they are done projects, they move on to make more episodes. Like they don't make more episodes of the shart kart in the hoonigans.
@Polecat71 he sold it a good while ago
There is new stuff comming soon according to Alex's Instagram
But it is gonna take time apparently.
If the BBC want to save Top Gear they should hire you guys.
God NO, BBC will just destroy everything they touch
And the guys at carwow.
This would be horrendous.
Better than top gear, the format is dead.
No, top gear can’t be replaced, but these guys are too good anyways
Alexb"we broke in to the 13's"
Me: "not bad"
Alex "no 13 seconds to sixty, not the quarter"
not bad, good soize

Jan-Britz Du plessis Yep.
Yes
Yeee
is that supra

Also Gareth: where's my crowbar?
Q: How to make a slow car fast for free?
A: Extreme weight reduction duhh
Edit: thx so much for 300+ likes!!!
Right lol. I deleted my ac for that reason
@@46Savage I took the frame out of the rear seat cushion though my children are butt hurt, but it was 15 pounds.
@Elliot Rodger yup thats the best way to reduce your carbon footprint and your lap times!! 😆😆😉😉😍😍
@Elliot Rodger surprised to find someone who agrees with me here but to continue the point...
Another issue no one talks about is overpopulation...
Well...we already hv 7.5 billion ppl on the planet! most scientists agree ~2 billion is the carrying cap of humans... with respect to all other sentient beings. We are way over carrying capacity.... besides latest ipcc report says we only hv 10 yrs to stop runaway climate chaos! Meaning if we all dont change our lifestyles everyones kids are fkd! You know I already decided Not to hv kids! Having one kid is a lifetime of carbon emissions! And if your kids have kids that multiple generations...
So 2 billion is a cap considering all earths species, with regard to habitat and space needed for survival. For example wolves need about 100acres of land each, for hunting/survival. On avg they generally run 20-35miles per day!! And thats just one animal... with habitat destruction, human sprawl and hunting/trapping, animals have less and less areas to survive. Thats why most are going extinct today.
Very last white male rhino died last yr! Many shark species are considered extinct today cuz of shark fin soup fishing. N America used to hv about 60million buffalo... now we have like 31,000. We shot them all to destroy native americans' main food source! There are pics of stacked piles of buffalo bones 2 stories high... humans destroy everything!!! Everything! Not even exaggerating! N america used to look like yellowstone nat park.... all of it!! Moose, big horn sheep, elk, deer, wolves, buffalo, bald eagles, all kinds of hawks, bears everywhere, mtn lions, honey badgers, river otters, wolverines, etc etc. Why do u think thousands of ppl travel to yellowstone every yr. Cuz thats one of the last few places u can see animals living in the wild and not in a fuking tiny cage at the zoo!!! 7.5 billion humans on the planet! 7.5billion... estimated less than 10k chimpanzees!! Seriously we dont need any more human babies...

Mitsubishi actually did that with something called 'RVR hyper sport' by putting a evo 3 drivetrain in it.

How have I only just discovered this channel? This is Top Gear 2019.
Car Throttle= Legit modern Top Gear. loving everything about this chanel!
Between the A+F shirt, crotch ripped jeans and Teva sandles, I have to admit, idk about that guys taste.
At least he combined open toe sandles with using a sledgehammer for manpoints.
Wtf thanks for making me look at ripped crotch 🤢 Didn’t notice it before

The black Supra looks nice on the backround🔥😂... i like it
You take out 300kg you save 2.3 seconds to 60. You take out Gareth you save 1.1 seconds. How much does this guy weigh?!?!!? 200kg???
Could be a hundred in that gear.
Häijy Velho I reckon Gareth is at least 100kg just thanks to those guns!
@@LandofBobiness Well, yeah, that too! But I estimated he'd be around 90, depends a lot on his height I guess.
@@haijyvelho He's going to be more than 90kg, I'm slightly shorter and in reasonable shape (ie. no beer gut) but nowhere near as bulky as Gareth and I'm 94kg. I'd expect he's over 100kg
Alex 3rd launch was his best, he bogged down in the first and the second was a bit weak so that also factors in.
There is smoke
Alex: one more quick lap!
A normal car owner: lets take it to the shop.
they pulled off the radiator fan so going for another lap actually Kris the engine cool
C'mon do it properly... You left the rear quarter windows in and still have the panic handles in the back!!!
dont forget the dashboard
I still don't quite get this, they're talking about removing weight yet they left the engine in... the heaviest part....... :/
Yeah there were another 20-30kg to save there
And the entire dash ....

My wife had one of these a few years ago and although it's not the coolest car on the road it was a great workhorse and super reliable and we almost regret selling it.
"almost"
Excellent camera work, and just a good video🤙🏻
You should have bend the roof down over tue seats and tick welded into the boot to create air flow through the cab out of the boot... love the channel, guys
A video with tiny muscle man and slightly bigger muscle man. Noice...
And ethan😂
1995 Nissan Micra with the 1.3 litre twin cam 16 valve engine 75bhp. Lowered with weight reduction. Bigger wheels and brakes. That would be cool to see.
Game Racer said no one ever
Said a lot of people actually. Quick cars
alex mclean it would be something different and fun 😀
My friend got a micra super s. 1.3L engine, primera disc brakes stock, stripped interior, straight pipes and the springs are long gone. It's the most fun car I've ever driven
I had a 1993 1.3 3 door micra, that thing was faaaast!. Great gear shift and easy to fix when anything went wrong. Handled poorly though, but with abit of work it could kill quite afew warm hatches on circuit. And on motorway it often surprised people in fancier looking larger engined clios etc. 114mph top speed.
I am doing this to my civic tomorrow its awesome thank you guys for sharing this fantastic idea!
Great vid once again guys 👍🏻 loving the cartorbike. Still think you should be hosting Top Gear Alex
It would be cool if you did a "ghost" shot, where your laps get overlapped in the same scene, so we can properly see how much better it was, rather than just seeing the numbers ;)
Really hard as you would have to drive the exact same route with the camera car two times. Great idea though.
@@Animaduniversum I'm talking about the "finish line" just to see the difference in the end, which is the only thing that really matters when trying to show the actual time difference between each run
This isn't forza
@@nicovanduin1553 hey, how bout u stop being childish? The guys who make these are definitely capable of doing it, just fucking keep a camera steady in a tripod at all times, and then putt together all clips where the vehicle crosses the line, when put together it looks doppo, and it's quite ez to so, besides that fuck Forza, it's way too arcady, and there's way too many 12 yo playing it.
That went from positivity to hostility instantly.
How to make you car faster for free:
1, ask mom for money
2. Buy a huge turbo
3. Have fun
4. blow up the engine
What if mom had a sex change would you still ask him?
1: ask mom for money
2: get nitro
3: strip car
4: cut parts of cabin you don't need (parts behind you)
5:have fun
@genuis of the game it's really not
Nos. Always Nos.
I have to say this is the best channel since top gear when the trio were on it. You guys are brilliant and I can’t stop watching! Keep up the good work!
That exhaust sounds so good!!
I'd like to see an attempt to put it back together. The resulting product would be quite funny I feel.
It's funny because 2 years ago he used another Mitsubishi Space Star to show us why cheap cars are the best!
That was great fun to watch!!
True inspiration here. Thx
I miss you guys PLEASE CAN WE DO SOMETHING SOON!!!
Phil update anyone?
"how much weight reduction do you want?"
Alex: Yes
loved your video man
Top gear replacements for sure. Love the video.
This channel just gets better and better! Great vid:D
Do you know what would be faster a k20 swap prelude
Im still waiting too😢
That’s awesome 😂 love the brake test 👍🏼
One of the funniest episodes so far! Sharing..
I saw the title & thought, "they aren't gonna do THAT are they?" And sure enough, you did. Crazy video guys.
Wow Alex, you've become one hell of a handy driver. I can see you are really taking that thing to it's grip limits, great lines and looks super fast on corners! Brilliant stuff!
I thought it weighed 305kg and almost lost my shit for a sec.
this was a great and enjoyable video!
Everyone know that the fastest cars/ vehicle's are:-
Post Office / Delivery vans
Hired Cars
Taxis😂😆
I had an Uber driver once coming back from O'Hare and I said to myself if I survive this he's getting 5 stars guy was flying :)
JEZZA!!!
I've once been in the car back from a night out in town, 3am maybe, driver doing at least 60 in a 30... Simply changes into the wrong lane to avoid the speed camera 😂
Ben Par facts my mailman’s screeched his tired multiple times

Gareth just makes every video infinitely better.
I tried this in 1985 with a Fiat 125 S . rust had done most of the work for me but timing chain was not up to the task. Very messy result. Great Video good entertainment.
Haha the sound reminds me heaps of my dads old mx5 na. I love it
How to start a prelude build and then just leave it mid way
andy white I'd be amazed if that still goes ahead, especially with HSUK. If it does the comments will be savage lol
They’re waiting for parts
@@shaunhuggins1100 could have made the parts by now let alone ordered them
probably still inspecting all the fake parts installed on it
PT82 what’s HSUK?
thoroughly enjoyed this video would love to see some more like this.
Ahh, Curborough raceway... Had a crash there once in an MR2. Came round the first corner off of the start bend, back end stepped out and over corrected it, hit the grass and the wheel buckled underneath. Also the first time I ever got to drive a kit car, Vindicator Sprint that thing shifted.
The little wheigt saving by cutting out the roof is useles cause you take away the rigidity of the moist mop chassis.. 😁
I thought the same... why remove the roof panel?
It looked like it only weighed a few kilos. Thin as foil
Dream come true.
Now I know how I'll say goodbye to my Space Star, I'm stripping it out and spanking a Turbo onto it trashing it in some circuit.
That's my equivalent of a viking funeral for a car.
Just don't hurt yourself, the rigidity of the thing was totally gone. :)
Don't hide it Alex, you love these Mitsubishis.
I really do. They're very robust
‘We spent an hour and a half stripping Stacy’
*A bit later* ‘It’s under Stacys flap’
This video was awesome!
love the torn pants at 8:43. so much ventilation
weight reduction i guess every little helps
It's a speed hole.
@@ragingfred DAT AERO THO
Love your videos they entertain me and teach me lots definitely smashing the thumbs up button already subbed ;D
Good exhaust sound, Stacy!
These Mitsubishi’s are amazing for cheap prices you can go off-roading or use it as a work horse and even as a track day car all proven by car throttle
The Top Gear "Avantime Challenge" comes to mind.
This looked as exciting as I expected when I saw the notification.
Shaving off 3 seconds of a 0-60 time is est. the time a real sportscar needs from 0-60. its pretty impressive.
Considering my e90 330xd has like 1800kg I wonder how much a weight reduction could shave off the 5,2 sec it has right now.
0BlaiddDrwg0 You need to shave off 1800 kg. According to Einstein, if you have zero mass, you always travel by the speed of light as a default speed.
I saw a video of a guy with an e46, if I remember correctly. Stripped the interior, about 300 lbs and was .8s faster i think.
Imagine you sell your pride an joy to only hop on CZcams a week later and see this video.
This is so damn good, honestly this video has the top gear kinda leven of enjoyement.
We did this a few years back with a BMW 750, although we didnt have access to a track. Just an industrial estate. Fun times though😁
Where is the Honda k24…?
Better than new top gear. This was brilliant 😁
reminds me of the purple spacestar that went offroading
just this time its a silver one going racing
its a good way to make a go kart out of an old car i suppose
*saw the exhaust off right? more emissions = more horsepower.... right?*
Edit - I’m only joking, why is everyone so serious?
Usa says yes
the backbox doesnt reduce emissions, just noise. thats what the cats for. removing it may unleash a couple of ponies and make it sound faster
Stupid comment from the uninformed. Welcome to the internet .
Did yall know that a stock Exhaust with mufflers weight very very much
Hi Prius owner ;)
I love this kind of videos, like the one about the tuning of bmw
Make more videos off this plzz, they are so funny and great haha
Awesome content!
Great fun!
But when will you bring back the series on the BMW 330d trackcar??
There is alot more to be done on that car ;-)
I second that!
The stripped version sound like alot of cars for need for speed underground 2
Straight piped 4 bangers 😂
I remember that the now-defunct SCC mag does this kind of thing with a Sentra, then test the effects of every lightening mod they've done at the drag strip.
you guys are the next generation of TOP GEAR #carthrottle
You're 💯% better than new top gear!
Chris Evans Top Gear was better than Top Gear now, bring back Joey and Evans
This is so Top Gear/Grand Tour... I love it!
I own a space star 1,9 did and its a glorious little car :D Would love the signed present :D
Do some more mods to it. Maybe add a little 90degree intale pipe with velocity stack on it(like honda engine bay tuners do) maybe a couple degrees of more timing, and removing front dash would help more? Also why you lock your wheels up while braking? Threshold braking is way better.
5:07 Someone noticed passenger's ripped pants ? Area between legs. 8:55 better look
THE WOLF lol ,you can see it in the thumbnail
Gay
2:24 is even better
Ultimate flex
THE WOLF did u notice this while looking at the bulge
3/4 sec to 1 sec per 100Kg is the approx. rule of thumb.
Thing about removing all the weight specifically with the hood and whatnot is that it creates a lot of drag which will slow you down.
Looks like a blast.
