I know most have seen this before but it still cracks me up.

Tiff trying to power slide round a corner but keeps failing.

On the last attempt Tiff is talking his way around the lap and on the straight coming up to the bend he says

"engage 3rd"

Jason's response "ENGAGE BRAKE" rofl

Maybe Tiff should have listened as he screwed it up again!

Just thought i'd share this with you on a Sat morning as it made me laugh.

As you were PH

OP, you should have called Plato some names, this thread would really take off then.

It did look quick, they were getting really chucked around there... maybe Tiffany was being a little too adventurous if Plato's face is anything to go by.

I think it's because Jason doesn't drive quite as fast as Tiff, with Tiff being a much better driver.

IMO Jason is tbe mich better driver (current touring car champ), Tiff loves to go sideways, which is good for the cameras but not for lap times.

The reason Jason looks so worried is because Tiff is going far too fast into the corners, which is proved by the amount of offs he has!

Just have a soft spot for Tiff, I've grown up with him so he'll always beat Plato :-)

I remember that episode, and thinking, I'd like to see some out-takes as Jason did look a tad scared at times. hehe

How on earth they can be having a pretty normal conversation while hooning round a track? Respect is due I think.

I thought this too, it's like when you're in a car with someone who is genuinely scaring you and you give them that look and stern voice? It looks like Plato is doing that.

Just goes to show how much of a nutter Tiff can be if he can scare Plato like that on a track hehe Top work! I'd probably would wanna have my eyes shut round the whole lap if that was his reaction!

It's a great video, for me they are the best car testers on TV.

Semi-interesting comment on Youtube:

Youtube comment said:
No good driver trusts anybody else driving but him.

No good driver enjoys being in the passenger seat in a car that is going fast.

You only trust yourself behind the wheel if you know what you're doing and have a handle of how cars behave.

I think he's genuinely not at ease.

He'd probably not be at ease even if HE where driving that Porsche, let alone someone else regardless of who that might be.
I think in the main I disagree with this comment, I'm more than happy to be driven fast if I'm happy that the driver knows what he/she is doing. Admittedly there have been times I've been driven very fast in a 205 Gti in the wet and did find it uncomfortable but that was more because I knew my car at the time wouldn't even been able to take the bends at such speed and stay on-road.

Plato is more than within his rights to look uneasy, Needell proved time and again that he was pushing the car beyond it's limits!

Tiff seems to be able scare anyone in the passenger seat, I think its the way he screams and shouts like he's never been that fast before every time he turns in to a corner.

I have to agree completely, I think Tiff is a seriously underrated driver, and I know for a fact that a lot of professional drivers agree!! Top bloke IMHO!

We've not said he's not.

We have said though that he's not better than Plato.
