this car has something special like the Morgan.. I think the design is timeless, it will look good in a 100 years from now😉 I enjoy watching every video I find about it
Get one bought!!! Would love to see you thrashing one around tracks more often!! Nothing more satisfying than watching a "small" engined roller skate leaving super cars in its wake! Must be a good feeling piloting these!
hands down among the top 5 coolest cars in the past decade. if you are a motor head who's into track performance, got yourself a collection of exotics and the BAC mono is not in your lineup, somethings wrong with you. This would be the first purchase in my collection, because it is the best rendition of an f1 car for the road. its timesless and hot as heck!. If there is anything worth possibly waiting for, is an electric version of the bac mono. aside from a lack of exhaust sound, thats a mindbusting idea. (and its been done before via the experimental Ariel Atom x1, which was a killer in its day
@@Speed_7545 Oh that's a close one. It is another truly British masterpiece. I guess lightning struck twice this year. It remains to be seen if the Cosworth engine is any good however.
You lucky man. BAC+Silverstone. 🤤 The next BAC versions should be: Version 3, should have a carbon tub Version 4, should have a carbon fiber control arms Version 5, carbon fiber control arms shaped like F1 cars. Version 6, full carbon rims
The carbon wheels and disc combo is crucially all unsprung weight so typically that’s worth conservatively 4x sprung weight. That will transform the already amazing performance. These would definitely be on my option list...
Exactly what I was thinking. The absolute weight-saving is not even the talking point, it’s that it’s all in the unsprung weight. 30 kilo’s less unsprung is amazing!
Yeah, most people underestimate unsprung weight. When i upgraded the wheels on my 350z, i lost about 5kg per wheel and saved half a second on average in a 90 second lap. That's half a second for 20kg in a 1450kg car. I am no pro driver though so my results may be inconsistent.
Love this type of cars, it brings you back to the basics. Try to get some time in a Noble (I do own the similar Rossion here in the US and it is amazing how organic the feeling is without any electronic nannies and a 6-speed Getrag) or a Radical. Although the BAC might be more formula oriented, I think the above mentioned "cousins" of it can offer more diverse and rewarding experience not to mention that you can enjoy it even more on a daily basis regardless of weather. Great video!
Its odd the US generally is ok with them (bar the bit closest to Canada where the fun police are pretty strong) the UK has always allowed them. Australia/NZ both are pretty daft although I think Aus has just lightened up a fair bit.
I’ve had mine for three years and done 11,000 miles in it (a lot of those at Silverstone.) How good is it? I’ve just bought a second one, that’s all you need to know!
James please bring back the modern classic content , more content with the cars you own 🔥🔥🔥please bro , I don’t come here for track stuff tbh but who am I 😌🔥👌🏽💔
The theory about this car when you drive it in the rain is.. you never get wet. 1: it’s too fast that no rain can ever catch up. 2: even if the rain caught you, you’ll be dried immediately because of the speed.
It's cool, but if you want a street legal formula car (and at a fraction of the price @ ~38k euro/~51k USD) why not go for comparable performance with increased reliability in a Formula Ford Ecoboost?
Need to do a road go In dry weather. Must video i seen like of seenthroughglass he got one factory and got rain on. Need to see the Morgan as well the are legendary

Thanks for the unique and sick content this morning fam! You're the man JWW 👊🏽✌🏾
Wow... Awesome...The Size it Looks Slightly Like a Electric GoKart...look So mobility 💪🔥
JWW is by far one of the best TH-cam channels. Thank you for your videos.
Who else wanted to hear the engine?
I certainly did... Pretty silly to keep on talking all along the track when this incredible machine has so much to tell without words!

If I was to get a track car,this would be it. I love the looks too !
if you want a track car buy a single seater,something you can see the wheels with
can you do a race against a gt3 rs or any track focus car and show how different they really are
Need to see more track and road content of the MONO❤
4:40am, I'm up and starting my day the right way. Thank you for another great video!
Classy as ever! It would be nice to hear how this thing sounds next time you're at it. Keep up the good work sir!
Love the BAC Mono. Always wanted to watch a mr.JWW video on it. 👌
Excellent content! Mr JWW is leading the way these days. Thank you Sir!
order one right now. That is a connoisseur's car, not one for the average youtuber' and certainly would make for some great road trip videos
How can you really take a road trip it would be so uncomfortable
will they put a halo on the next one?
Now that it's not so foreign looking on f1 cars, yes they should.
If this car is driven without a HALO above 60 MPH your head will explode.
lmao it looks terrible on formula cars
alex21212121 its not about the looks its about the safety
@@alex-vu3gv how fucking hard is it to get it through your thick head that its a safety feature.
James ... like me , you know you need this in your life!
Just imagine a youtubers race in these .... complete fire !
Hey James...The content is as always up to the mark and exclusive....Keep up the amazing work and keep enjoying....👊👊
tht looked really fun! I cannot wait to see it too on the road, I liked your lines James!
That's the most beautifully crafted machine to come out of Britain since the Merlin engine. Prove me wrong.
Aston Martin Valkyrie?
@@Speed_7545 Oh that's a close one. It is another truly British masterpiece. I guess lightning struck twice this year. It remains to be seen if the Cosworth engine is any good however.
720s ????
@@Elias_g1 ha. We are only beginning to learn what a disaster that car is in typical British automotive fashion.
This was at the factory a few weekends ago when I went for a tour, such a cool car and great to check out how their built
You lucky man. BAC+Silverstone. 🤤
The next BAC versions should be:
Version 3, should have a carbon tub
Version 4, should have a carbon fiber control arms
Version 5, carbon fiber control arms shaped like F1 cars.
Version 6, full carbon rims
Just beautiful!! ✌ All that carbon....wow
I would like to see more BAC and more JWW driving it! Love this car!
I love this car I played drive club for ps4 and I know it's a video game but I still fell in love with it
From an American bloke to an English chap... cheers. Thanks for the content. So underrated.
You're the definition of cool and I am extremely envious.
I'm just commenting to say how proud I am of my fellow American bloke for saying "envious" instead of "jealous."
James u did a great job reviewing this little race car 🏎
I’d love to see more of this car on the road and round town! 😃
Cool! Yes have some more track experience and public road feedback. Great vid as usual James. 👍👍👍
Love these mate! What a fantastic car and different feel of video with the voice over which was nice. Great work.
Saw a glimpse of my own car in the video as we were a few garages up from you, a gaggle of day-glo Caterhams

Great video but I was expecting an in-car lap with no voice over just pure engine music
Drove this thing in forza and loved it haha, I could only imagine driving it in real life

So, it's 630 am here, and I'm watching a story about an amazing car that's not even legal in Canada. Good start to the day! Cheers, James!
Moose-impact safety regs?
@@rickc2102 something like that. Lol!
What is it with Canada - they have (outside the cities) almost deserted roads yet they ban almost every fun vehicle going.👮
@@tcroft2165 i wish I knew
Its odd the US generally is ok with them (bar the bit closest to Canada where the fun police are pretty strong) the UK has always allowed them. Australia/NZ both are pretty daft although I think Aus has just lightened up a fair bit.
I will have to get one for local highway patrol so we can race around in the mountains late at night during his or her shift..
Dream car 👌
Perfect for the daily commute.
Excellent music choice at the start.. Amazing editing qualities! Great .... Every vid is one to look for ..... CAr vid porn! Well done!
That thing looks pretty sick
Great content... If you could share Raw video of the laps in BAC.. that would be a delight....
Mr JWW should go for a 2019 BAC MONO!
Road legal? Frighten awesome! Awesome video. Thank you
Yup. Most light weights are - some are more tricky than others
BAC Mono youtubers race would be cool to see 👍🏼👍🏼
Cruising past everything on the track😁
Would love to try it! Wow a light one seater
Thank you James GREAT video !👍
As a mere mortal i only race this car in Assetto Corsa, but even then it is a pure joy to drive.
thanks for all the great video and your tdf is amazing and it is by far my favourite car by ferrai
One of my favorites toys in forza!! Incredible thing! Thanks for a great video though) pleasure to watch
Awesome drive James 👍
So we never heard it or saw it on track once without sound pollution!
I hope they make one in the future that can have a removable fighter jet type glass windshield.
Yeah j, do a road trip in one please!
More MONO!
Must be a nightmare to detail! .....coming up next - we welcome our first BC MONO into NVN London
I’ve had mine for three years and done 11,000 miles in it (a lot of those at Silverstone.)
How good is it?
I’ve just bought a second one, that’s all you need to know!
Nice driving James
Thanks James👍🇦🇺
JWW would look good on that steering wheel
Such a shame you can't register one for the road here in Australia, awesome car and a great video.
POV on point 👍
Bac Mono
Cateram 7
Arial Atom
KTM Dart
Caparo T1
Lamborghini Egoista (I know but I had to)
Some comfy seats, some ICE and a cup holder would make sense in this automobile
Slashley gibbins , are you serious?
@@MrMightyytau and a towing hitch for family holidays.
God, the lack of sense of humour of some people always surprises me... 🤦♂️
@@ruimarques_ maybe they should add a boot for trips to the local refuse centre?
@@gdfggggg Are you serious ??? 😂 A roof rack is doable though. 🤔
James please bring back the modern classic content , more content with the cars you own 🔥🔥🔥please bro , I don’t come here for track stuff tbh but who am I 😌🔥👌🏽💔
I would love to see one of these driven on the Bathurst track in Australia
Valterri, it's James!
BAC Mono vs Porsche GT3RS now that would be Awesome to see James.✌🐼🤳

What does the BAC cost? Should do a comparison against the Ariel Atom!
Like 150 grand ish
What I want to see more of with this car? You owning one and heaps of content on it. Well actually me owning one, but that won't happen for a while.
Price? But then you can't put a price on such a raw experience and performance. Need one of these
£167,940 UK + options
Great car. Your very good at your job. 👍🙏✌️🌞😎🏎🍻
Great looking car. It doesn’t need to be called ‘most’ unique. It’s either unique or it is not.
Should've given it an over/under twin exhaust and called it the BAC Lightning. Oh well, there's always the next one.
...about time you got in one mate....Ha Ha !
Hope you can get a ride in the radical. The new turbo one now can have 600hp. I have seen one in the US that is all exposed carbon
Good review
Thank you @mrjww for the test drive of the mono. Will you be able to give us access to the new ariel Atom 4? Far more reachable and two seater !
I’m surprised the wheels aren’t center locking. Seems like that would be a no brainer for a track car. Even Porsche does that.
I want to daily it :D I would love to take this to the Alps, hope it comes with a luggage rack ;)
Its a quick 'un...!!! 🚗💨😁👍
This would've been a cool "modern classic" video... or maybe in 10 or so years
Madness!!
For 125000£ this is one hell of a track toy.
BAC Mono is a bargain compared to things like the FXXK, Valkyri and the Senna and you can drive them home again.
This car has nothing in common with those cars. Apples and oranges comparison
Allen Saunders actually I would say it’s in the very same ethos of a Senna or FXXK but taken to the extreme..cars made to go fast around tracks.
Litmus test: would JWW buy one? Answer: NO
Why are we not seing more of these on TH-cam??
They make them in tiny numbers. YT needs plenty of owners or plenty of press demonstrators to get lots of clips
Super cool
How does the exhaust sound?
I want to see a video of you and Tom Hardy! The photo won't do!! Lol
One of my favorite ForzaH3 toy.
Who in the world skips the startup? I want to hear the engine
Imagine that thing with a 3L v12
Formula with Fenders/ Super!
I need one.
Need to do a road go In dry weather. Must video i seen like of seenthroughglass he got one factory and got rain on. Need to see the Morgan as well the are legendary
Would be great to hear the car for one lap.
