Seen this a few times, never fails to impress. Taking TT course on with this level of commitment, car or bike, just blows my mind. Absolutely nowhere to go if it all goes shit shaped!
There is, down the side of a mountain, just ask Connor cummings
i’m come back at least once a year to watch Mark drag his iron balls around the isle. this video is fucking nuts
He is so fucking talented, 100% commitment
"At these speeds, this car could fly" just the thought of a blowover on this course gives chills, such an amazing drive!
Hands down one of the best videos on TH-cam 😊
Respect! I loved it when you were swerving to warm your tyres - 100MPH and pulling 1G - again, respect!
17 and a half minutes of pure concentration and total commitment. Flawless performance and the post edit commentary really lets you know exactly what Mark is dealing with at such high speed. Superb !! Thank you 5th Gear and thank you Mark and the ProDrive team 👏🏻
One mistake and it's.... aye... All over. To hold that level of concentration for that long and to do it THAT well. That's what makes people special at what they do eh? To say the least, absolutely wild.
Skills of an epic proportion, kudos to you brother, what a pleasure to watch 💪😎✌
His heart rate was @150bpm. Mine was @165bpm, seating in my bedroom watching this on my cellphone. WTF!
You made my day 🤣 Your comment is Perfect ❤
so fast it looks like a PS game footage, amazing
This is some of the craziest shit I have ever seen. That car is a monster
Mark Higgins doing what most Manx lads dream of; driving the TT course on a closed road. An incredible drive from Mark, as he makes it look far easier than it is. Some of those sections are as bumpy AF.
Articulate, intelligent and flat out awesome! Great narration and amazing sound throughout. To see the TT in-person is on my bucket list. 😊
Love Mr Higgins and love the IOM.. We used to go over in the 1980s for the Manx rally every year so have seen him compete here a few times. Always exciting and always committed as in this video. I remember coming down off the mountain towards Ramsey hurrying along in between stages and running out of brakes in my lovely Dolly Sprint. We made it though and lived to tell the tale. Thank you for this fantastic video.
Great driving and commentary, Mr. Higgins.
Absolutely brilliant mate!!! Daily watch on this one.
Mark Higgins. You've got titanium balls brother. Goddamn
It is such a pleasure to watch a professional driver take this car to its limit.... and what a limit that is...
What skill. Underrated that man. Massive respect 😮.
Not surprised Mark was an excellent WRC driver and infamous as stunt driver on James Bond 🏴 too 👍🏻👏👏👏👏🙏🏻
Flippin' 'eck! 😲 What Markku Alen used to call "maximum attack" driving deserves respect, whether you're on two wheels, three wheels, or four. Bravo.
This is absolutely bonkers!
INCREDIBLE driving Mr Higgins , blown away
nipping a bit of kerb at 170 going into the alpine section, really scary tbh, great drive. feel blessed to have watched this at cronk y voddy, i hope this type of thing returns to the TT, it gave it that bit of extra special sauce.
When the chippy shuts in twenty minutes 😂😂😂🤘😎🤘 Bloody Brilliant driving 🙏
Fantastic video. Mind blowing.
Spectacular driving. It was great to see the sections of the course you never get to see during the bike events, even though it was all a blur lol.
Clocking in at 105mph over the speed limit past someones house is mental. What a race the TT is. Special.
9:20 170+mph inches away from people and houses on inner city streets, no dividing walls, absolutely insane ! Love it
The car feel like a part of me, that's true passion
Mark you are special to me.
I love the car and all the people behind it.
But you...
You're special to me.
Respect to all speedy hearts fallen here on the island of man and machine.
🇵🇹
Calm down you're f all to him
@@stokes8626 special ...
Collin McRae.
Dave Jeffries.
Richard Burns.
Carl Fogarty.
JONH MCGUINESS.
David Coulthard.
Just to name a few of the "you are special to me."
@@stokes8626what's the matter, scared of people giving others respect and showing their appreciation? Calm down mate, you're nothing to me or the op either. Other nations speak differently pal.
@@timbob1145 Ok go back to Fortnite
@@stokes8626 I think you need to give your mum her phone back
This sh!t is straight bananas! It's incomprehensible, I just can't wrap my head around that fact that he's going around those curves like he's on a casual Sunday drive. Nucking futz!
Wow so talented
LOVED it!!!!
I'm the owner STI, but i have no words to comment this crazy guy ❤ love it and Higgins forever
Astonishingly Brave !! Fantastic….
as others, I've watched this many times and each time leaves me speechless, what a cool customer Mark Higgins is. Will there be a return for Subaru?
Amazing
Absolutely awesome
Now think what a special build 1000 hp time attack car with massive aero could do !!
I hope some day they bring a real monster to the isle of men.
Incredible driving 👍🏻
Realy Fantastic.
Stunning drive omg well crazy man
Can't believe speedo is mph.
Why wouldn’t it be? The UK went metric as recently as 1971, it will take them a while to get used to it.
@@Bonnieprinceharley common sense, explanation because of the speeds he's doing, looks like it's in kph
Agree, there is no way on earth you can get around those corners at 70/100 mph!!! Impossible
@@jaysullivan1185 well at 7:40 mark he takes a corner at 157mph, sorry something is way out in this, no way he's doing that sorry of speed .
@@jaysullivan1185 this is a true speed comparison in kph

Honestly the heart rate shows your confidence in the car. Great drive. Thank you sir.
Does the steering wheel size get better or worse if bigger. I guess I'm trying to ask would a bigger steering wheel get less stress through the arms and more turning power?
And could you "feel" the drs?
This is nuts! When he hit 175mph and says we could really use more that section of the course, the bikes run closer to 200mph! Glad I hit the comments, I thought I was just too old to cope or whatever, but no its not just me; plenty of guys having the same thoughts. At first I couldn't tell what the top left corner was showing and when I realized it was drivers heart bpm, respiratory rate, and skin temp (wtf?!), I thought yeah, no sh¡t! I should have been monitoring my vitals just watching this video! Holy crap, "we have to be careful because the car could fly" .....the last time I heard a guy say that and really mean it, and he did mean it, was one of the drivers of a Porsche 917k talking about racing at Le mans (1970? I think) flat out top speed at night, well over 200mph in an 1800lb car with no proper ground effects, no abs brakes.....he stated quite bluntly how amazed (and no doubt relieved) he was that no one was killed while racing the 917's.....they hit a top speed of 247mph at Le mans and won the race, that record would stand for some years. A Jaguar hit 251mph but the car was crap. Look into it if you havent already.
Anyway love this video. I used to be into air cooled VW's so I have a soft spot for flat 4 (or 6 or 12) cylinder boxer motors.
128mph, very fast. Congratulations to all who were involved. Sorry I got here so late.
No words to describe that really
4:20 to 4:55 absolutely flat out bouncing off the rev limiter in top at 175mph! On a public road in a Scooby! So cool! Plus they could clearly go even faster on this section alone by a longer top gear. Although he did mention the possibility of going airborne? So maybe not?
Crazy how the bikes are still faster than this!
And the car got a flying start
Because they’re faster flat out. Round the corners they’re nowhere near as quick.
Not really just the braking phase (which is massive)@willking6915
Some say, there's an equally fast truck following him carrying his balls.
😂
Love the fact he starts in the car park at Creg Ny Bar
Last time I left the pub like this , ended up in the bushes 😮
And that is why rally / TT drivers and riders will forever be better than F1 boys.
love the disrespect. pretty sure both camps would think you're a moron for holding that opinion, but hey
it's two different motorsports dicipline bro .. yes rally drivers might have big balls but F1 drivers need full strength to overcome the g-force
Absolutely...no sandy run offs at the iom
F1 driver on this course in this Suby, possibly. F1 driver on this course in an F1 car? No way in hell.
There is no doubt rally driving is one of the most dangerous and difficult motorsports but F1 is no easy thing either.
Baku, Monaco, and really any race track require drivers to stay as close to their line for 2 hours sometimes without any breaks in between except 1-3 pitstops. No easy task while at those speeds or g-forces.
crazy to think that this is the same dude who does stunt driving for the james bond films, def shows how he got the gig lol
Godlike
Just wow.
Incredible
Great effort. Bikes are now up to 136 mph, but it's taken many great riders a number of years to get to that. 128 mph by one driver in one car in one year is special.
He went to 175mph at some points.
He’s talking average speed for the entire track. 128mph average and he got up to 175 mph.
The fastest bike average 136mph
And they get up to 200 mph.
@@psychbiker Think Anstey was hitting 206mph during practise session end of Sulby straight insane
Incredible. 175MPH passed those houses and spectators is something else.
"You have to be a little bit wary when you get up to those speeds." -- Priceless
Awe inspiring a member of the big balls club!
Excellent skill
What a machine
The run to beat this is going to be something special
I met him yesterday. Lovely guy
Balls of Steel Mate
If you want to see something really special check out peter hickmans chin cam lap of the TT.
Crazy
Looking forward seeing you next year with higher top speeds.
That was unbelievable
Back to 170 , nice corners. Kills me every time.
did fifth gear buy the rights to this video? was on the subaru channel originally
Let’s have a go!
really awesome. wish the camera was better. The camera on the "stock-ish" run captured the speed a lot better
Dude, my heart rate is higher than the driver's just from watching!
👍👍👍... respeto total
First class driver made it look easy scary stuff had me glued stay safe
Va como una super bike.. 🚀🎌✨ siempre
I can't believe I didn't notice the DRS blip til the bloke mentioned it. Whispered "fuck off". What a crazy run.
This is the reason why Subaru showed middle thinger to Lamorgoni, Ferrari, Porshe, and Konnigsed . They dont need to race, they fucked up cars worth X10 times of this car...
These people sitting on the the embankments thinking nothing of a car screaming towards them at 170 LOL "It'll turn..." Good grief.
Balls like cannonballs
The spectators have no idea how close they are to being turned into spaghetti 😂
I would love to see a side by side ghost comparison of this v a 600cc bike.
판타스틱~ Max 175 MPH Wow
Prodrive 💥
17:26 ''I just get the wheel on the grass there. It's no drama.'' At 130 mph. Right. :)
Happens every time in rally and hillclimb. Plus rolls and crashes at same speeds, and they usually walk away. Cars are safe compared of bikes.
@@urmo345 I'd believe you if we didn't just lose Craig Breen in a rally accident
@@coliimusic believe me just because of this. Breen accident was freak accident.
Hugely impressive quality lap, for a car. Bike lap record now 136mph.
Ya IOM got herself another Hicky this year :)
That bike video is crazy...was transfixed into the screen the entire time
MARK Higgins 🇫🇴
What tyres is he using?
Buster “Nuts In A Wheelbarrow” Gonad from Viz finally identified
154 BPM, and I'm just watching this 😮
Amazing job. Was at the edge of my seat expecting an idiot to cross the street or stray wildlife to pop up around a bend. 😮
Funny to see my face at Creg Ny Baa years after 😃
JEEZ, I can drive fast but this is something else, but if you didn't know the road there is NO WAY you could drive that fast. I'd love to give this thing a blast on an empty A5 in North Wales. Not much can keep up with me in a 1.9 TDi Bora, this would be AWESOME.
I noticed that the top speed is "only" 175mph, and in many points of the track he keeps that speed for quite a long time, and the engine is at its maximum range. Why didn't he choose a faster car? Let's say that it can have a top speed of 200mph, like a Porsche for instance (a GT3 RS might be good). A bike used in the TT race has a top speed around 200mph, or even more. Anyway, impressive and scary, very well done! Thanks for the video Fifth Gear!
For lots of reasons, it was a Subaru sponsored record event being the main one
Can you get a 4k camera next time
Hey Polyphony Digital - you gave me the actual car in GT7………so how about the legendary track layout to try and emulate this superb display of driving awesomeness (poorly)
170mph around corners. WTF 😮😂👍🇷🇺🇬🇧
I've got a Scooby but I'd be lucky to do a lap in 34mins.
Well done Mark
I’d like to see Pastrana do a few laps.
Good graphics. Looks real. Must be using raytracing...
1200KG??? Imagine what you could do in 600.
Wow amazing… and when you think the motorcycle riders do this for 4 plus laps with no co driver. Fabulous
22min 44 seconds by Tony Pond in a Rover 827..... Just think about that..!!
