The Chris Harris thread

He was at our track day yesterday.
Possibly the most rude and obnoxious man I've ever stood next to.
And he's proper short.

I fear you're about to shatter my dream... I've always wanted to meet him, until now...?

I hope you called him a little c**t?

There's always been something about him I've never liked.

One if the guys there said "oh he's got a lot on his mind at the moment"

Haven't we all?? But surely if you're invited to an event, either show up and put some effort in or don't bother coming?
I was actually quite excited to be stood where I was and he just looked at me like 'wtf are you looking at fat boy'.

Oh well. His loss. I'm awesome.

Well it's a weak week for Harris... RM Auctions advert by any chance?

I like Chris Harris's car reviews, we enjoy the same thing in cars.
But I don't think he's a nice guy, I think Daniel is spot on. Strikes me as a guy that was bullied at school as he quietly digested car book statistics instead of making friends.

Gotta laugh at the YT comments regarding the P1s "illegal" track mode. Times are set on a track so whats the issue?

I'm not really surprised the P1 was found to be fastest over a lap.

if I was in the market for a car like that, it's probably what i'd have.

But then if I had that kind of money, i'd save the pennies and break the bank for an F1.

Wow - that was an awesome film! I think that I agree with the conclusions really, three amazing cars that all achieve a similar result through very different engineering, and that makes it all the better.
I think I'd have to have the P1 though - if for the looks and the turbo-nutter noise alone!

Awesome video, the jealousy is strong!

P1 for me, it just looks 100% amazing! The Ferrari's wheels are abit naff and the Porsche just doesn't really float my boat looks wise... All incredible machines nevertheless.

What a great video and a cracking day for all involved, I doubt it will ever happen again for them.

P1 then La Ferrari then Porsche for me please.

These days, the f1 is in a different stratosphere. Think you could buy all 3, twice over for less than an f1!

A cracking watch that. Amazing cars indeed. What is mad though is that the one:1 has almost twice the power to weight as all of them. It must be bonkers quick.

I'm amazed they managed to reach a reasonable outcome in relation to the tyres. Amusing to hear that Ferrari had still made the effort to go out there 2 weeks before to see what's what before they let the journos in there...

Love the circuit too, great layout!

Not sure what I enjoy most, seeing the cars or seeing the genuine sense of enjoyment/amazement/disbelief on Harris' face every time he drives an amazing car. Incredibley lucky to do what he does but I think he appreciates that more than anyone else.

And Laf for me.

My head appreciates the 918, my heart admires the Ferrarri, but seeing the P1 drift around just gets me so excited.

If it was my money and I had to have one, I think I'd sway towards the Ferrari at the last second.


Also, Harris says he's giving this up? As in, motor journalism? :(

Yeh I heard him say that.
Wonder what he's doing next.
Flol. He said to the mclaren bloke something like "in giving this up soon. This was just a blag. There's not even a memory card in the cameras"

Think that may have been a joke ;)
 
Really great video. Don't care which is fastest or 'better'. Just a nice film enjoying three serious machines.

I quite like the vibe with these three guys. I'm hoping to see them doing more stuff together.

Saw it was 52 mins long and was amazed as it seemed like only 15 mins as it flew by as I was so engrossed. Have liked Harris since his days on Autocar and then Evo. Needles grates a little tbh but this definitely fills the void since Top Gear has been off air. Awesome cars the lot of them. I would take the P1 tho given the choice and I love Porsches so that says a lot.
