Wait, what? Chris Harris on Cars is now something you have to pay a subscription for?

It seems so. Although previous episodes are still available via the old drive channel

idiotic move from Drive there.

Really impressed with the 11s Gramps build so far, although Turbo Yoda is doing all the work and Marty is just cleaning and painting stuff

Clarkey · 24 Jul 2014 at 18:55

I'll be surprised if it makes 11s tbh, unless the turbocharging is a little more intense than they have let on.

I have always thought that a subscription service would be better for the big channels (though I would have said £1 pm) but it really hasn't gone well; only 19 views in 3 months. Looks like they've given up

Has anyone here seen any of the NBC coverage? I guess there is no way to watch it over here.

The engine is 260BHP out of the factory. I would imagine with a low boost setup they will easily make 400BHP-500BHP territory which should get it into the low 12's. Obviously the 4wd will help a lot with that time. It's also in a gen 2 legacy which means it will weight peanuts.

They will keep going until they make 11seconds I'd guess!

shauncr91 · 24 Jul 2014 at 21:54

We still don't know how far they are actually taking the engine with mods and other parts on the car. Even if it doesn't see 11 it'll be close and I'm sure they'll keep it at it get there, they may even strip it all back to lose lots of weight which'll help massively too.

really enjoying this series

shall watch part 5 with my dinner

shauncr91 · 25 Jul 2014 at 17:10

I know they are getting sponsored by Garrett + Castrol etc but their product placement is as smooth as sand paper

which grade?

Dup · 25 Jul 2014 at 17:30

At least they gave a good explanation of the products and the marketable advantages. Not just shouting who they are sponsored by or what have you.

I can't be the only one that finds Moog really grating, ep5 = :/

He has his place and he's really funny (In moderation) but you can tell there's a huge gap in mechanical know-how between the pair and I think that's why he's not been present much until now. I think Turbo Yoda was actually getting genuinely wound up at points!

OhEsEcks · 25 Jul 2014 at 21:47

I think Al just isn't that comfortable on camera. And he's still trying to run his business around the MCM build, which Marty and Moog are doing in their spare time. This is Marty's car, so it's a given he'll feature more on the build if they're doing it in their spare time. Moog is probably busy with his IRL music work and with the stuff relating to the new series.
