Clarkson - Head to Head

1999 · 74 min

A fast, funny, gearhead-friendly blast through supercar showdowns and racetrack stunts, light on depth but high on petrol-powered charm.

Directed by

Genres

Starring
Jeremy Clarkson, Colin McRae, Johnny Herbert
Tagline
The Race is On
Overview
Which is faster round a racetrack - a Porsche 911 or the Yamaha R1? Would you rather have a Ferrari 360 Modena or the new Aston Martin DB7 Vantage? Which is the best road-going rocketship - the BMW M5 with Tiff Needell at the wheel or JC’s Jaguar XJR? Which of the new Japanese super tech cars is best? the Evo6 or the 22b? PLUS grimace as JC shows a Hyundai what it’s like to be eaten, marvel at the Lamborghini LM002 as it wreaks havoc on London’s traffic and check out the greatest race Silverstone has ever seen - Johnny Herbert in his Stewart Ford and Colin McRae in his full rally spec Focus...versus JC in a Cougar. (NEVER BEFORE SEEN ON TV)
