STIG DRIFTS: Ariel Atom 4; 320bhp & 595kg | Top Gear
Yes, The Stig is back in one of Blighty's finest - the Ariel Atom 4. Now it's not the obvious choice for a drift wagon, we'll admit, but with the Atom 4's new torquier turbocharged engine, The Stig's feather-touch left-foot braking - oh, and 538bhp/tonne - let's see just how sideways it'll go... Rate this drift in the comments below, and check out The Stig drifting an M3 GTS here: bgworld.info/section/video/urSq2tqUibBpqn8.html

Someone has to edit this video to include eurobeat music lol
Asphalt 8 players: Pathetic
That looked like trying to rollerskate on ice. :)
i remember drifting an ariel in nfs mw
Drifting in these types of cars is really hard
Very good👍
*Insert Entertainment*
This is the most beautiful car I've ever seen. I probably won't be able to own it ever but I'm gonna drive it one day
Stutt stuutuutuuu stuuutt stututuuuutt
At 1:33 you can see the following camera crew car in the right wing mirror
It looks like i am playing an arcade games with this driver
cant drift
this looks so terrifyingly sketchy
This is not even drift.
Don't copy Japan
Sorry but looks clumsy en chaotic, to close to revlimiter to be able to steer with the throttle and to much steering input. He's fighting the car instead of dancing with it. It's true the atom is designed for grip and you won't get the angle of an fr-layout. Dry drifting would be balls to the wall and preferably be done with big runoff areas. But on a damp track and this power to weight you should be able steer with throttle and comfortably maintain your drift. Been there done that with formula cars on slicks. Transitioning this type of car is not for the faint of heart tough.
he is living in forza or assetto
Didn't seem to want to drift much. I'm thinking the weight distribution was not ideal for drifting.
good choice of Stig
Rubbish. Don’t give up your day job... oh .. wait..
them : Ariel Atom wasn't meant to drit Stig : hold my beer

Even the stig is struggling to keep the atom in drift, excellent driving stiggie👌

Not great, but that's to be expected.
Do another car challenge. But ship themed. One of those secretly being the Titanic
The Ariel Atom. *It’s so quick it can destroy your entire face.*
great news
too cinematic for top gear
gówno nie polecam
I really don’t get this series, but drifting does nothing for me so I pass. As a headphones listener using auto-play, it’s basically just noise!
Is this game on PS5? The graphics are amazing!!
How is that excellent weather??
Super short wheelbase, light car, lots of power. Less power you understeer, more power you spin.

Well I can see it wasn't made to drift.
Fantastic 👍.
NOT BAD
BBC stands for Bring back clarkson
No smoke, No drift.
100
Lotus Exige?
lol kids dont understand how hard it is to drift that. hes fighting oversteer and understeer.
NOT easy in that thing !

Intro is way too long. It is one third of the whole video.
Peasants...
Do we have to Patreon to unlock the other circuits?
Dang this thing looks hard to kick out. Battling it every inch of the slide.
you rated that great? so grading is on a curve then...
This is by far the hardest vehicle had to drift
Rating....poor... should have scandi flicked it in...as he/ she was struggling to engage a drift...or just given the keys to me.....
Tail light flare was a nice touch.
can you do a c8 corvette? or a tesla?
So if u want a fun toy this is not it..
Chris Harris in there? similar drifting style, wheel control
I would love to see a video on a vw gli from these guys. maybe one day
Cool video! I'd love to see Ariel make a purpose built drift car!
Admirable effort. That car is 100% not made drifting.
Awful, really. On the Rev limiter all the time and doing 50mph. You sure?
10/10 for drifting arguably the most stable car ever
Top
What a blessing this channel, this segment.
c’mon lewis hamilton... you can do better 🤤🤤🤤
Actually pretty terrible drifts. Was there any real drifts? I know was designed not to drift I'd say that was accomplised
He’s trying his hardest to make it spin. Hard in a car that’s not exactly supposed to but still good 👍👌🚘🏎🚙🚗
Wow, cool car!
Rate for drift:7 or 8
Lol the car wants so bad to regain traction. It just doesn't want to drift.
decent
It’s very difficult to actually drift a ATOM but it was a excellent effort.
Awesome Content I really liked it...Keep Sharing and Keep In touch also "NEW FRIENDS" are always Welcome...My Home Doors are Always open for Blessed Guests.....Come and have a nice Cup of Tea ☕ نئے دوست میرے گھر کا بھی چکر لگائے انشاء اللہ آپکو میرا کونٹینٹ اچھا لگے گا۔..
Seeing the camera shots from the rear presents the question. Who is driving the camera chase car? And is this a chase car or motorcycle?
I take my hat off for the Stig trying to drift this thing....it looks like it would snap your neck if you try and get it more sideways.
Rain was chosen because it’s barely sunny in the uk
rate that drift? sub-par. Stig was battling to hang the ass end out even in the damp/wet. if all you wanna hear is turbo noises then this is right up your strasse.
Do you know what type of car this is
Anyone else got a 30 minute Samsung ad at the start?
I miss the old men of top gear
Impressive when considering the snap oversteer tendency of a light-weight rear engine mounted platform!
1:46 That cameraman sitting on his ass instead of standing up on the outside of the turn has either a serious lack of smarts or an overabundance of faith.
Ahahahaha so cool
That thing has tons of grip. Even on a wet road, looks like he's having trouble getting the back end out. On the slow-mo shot you can see some grass and weeds hanging off the bottom. So he put it in the weeds once or twice attempting this. Just way to much grip. Point for the Atom. LOL!!
One of stigs nice white shoes are grass stained as well, Good catch on the weeds, I had to turn up my quality to see them
Let's face the fact! Chris Harris does way better! In many many of his reviews, he slides to the edge (not being just in the middle of the road). He slides from one corner and continues to next one.. He does all without these fancy things and mysterious naming etc...
sounds like a 1.0 corsa being revved up at mcdonalds
it was good, but he has had better
I wonder if Ariel will ever put a V10 or a V12 into one of their cars because why not?
Your question tells me that you're very young and probably without any driving experience. As soon you understand how unimportant numbers are, you would step into another dimension of life. Take your time.0
And call it a molecule 🔥
Its not good to drift this car.
Probably had to wait for a wet day to get that to drift.
Pretty average driving 🇭🇲
yea it Stinked
Fake engine sounds put in? It doesn't line up with what he's doing with the gas pedal lol. It literally sounds like it's out of Forza.
3/10
1:36 Wow, so much to see happening between the quick footwork and through the bodywork
You can get a whole episode.
Wow... Top Gear's video quality really dropped.
You should do more reviews.
Fun fact: that’s Richard Hammond trying to get his old job back
@Matthew Donnelly wasn’t it also the fact that Jeremy said the N word
@Matthew Donnelly sad
@Obama jeremy punched a producer and got fired the others the resigned to make the the grand tour with him
why did they change the people actually
@w123 300d no it’s not Richard Hammond, I’m just pretending that it is him stating how much better they’re than the current presenters.
People say in comments that the drift was very good,good ,ok,bad,hmm k like that But in reality these guys didn't know drift and if they ,they can't beat stig and never will
Drift stig is James Deane #rumourstarter
Oooouhhhh zoooooooooo oh oh ohhh ohh
