Jay Leno Interview and Lap - Top Gear - BBC

gelareh now listen God just up come on your show for me yeah he recently had Obama Barack on the right which lets you know it's the other way around doesn't it? Yeah, but I'm kind of dyslexic, so I'm sorry, it's only if people are going to pick his name, some Scrabble tiles. I would say, oh yeah, anyway, is it easy to put an American president on the show or is it a little complicated? You know, the difference is interesting because I had had him as a candidate twice before and each time. he would come with his jacket like on this finger with two guys as president, oh my god, armies, literally, armies come in, sweep your staff and say this about you, Jeremy Clarkson, yeah, yo, don't come tomorrow, we said no. come tomorrow well just a background check if you had a joint in your sock in 1972 and that's what they do, don't come in and you know, and they never told us why they would do it, they just told us not to come.

That day, how do we end? Does the phone work when it arrives or is it all off and all cell phones are monitored within 60 miles so everyone within 60 miles of every phone bill is my pit for keywords if there are certain keywords they will track you, What left you senseless? I used to think when I went that I would go to a prison with just more food, right? And when you returned home you felt like you had returned to a free country now. I find it's the other way around, well you have these speed cameras, that's what you see in LA, people would say why don't you shoot them normally at this stage when we have people.

Yes, I get to the point in the

interview

where I say talk about your cars, okay and they say: I have a Honda Accord and my wife has a Toyota price, okay, I just need you to understand how big the gas was that we had here, okay, so these are just your cars ready, take a deep breath, dodge. viper packard caribbean chevrolet corvair esight jaguar bugatti type 37 Lamborghini Espada Chevrolet calls it said r1 Lamborghini Countach brough superior Bentley Turbo R Shelby Mustang 350gt Citroen SM Fiat millecento Corvette zo6 begat e-type 57 AC Cobra 47 a Lamborghini Miura s Dodge Challenger SS fine Bentley speed six Ariel Atom Ford Model T another Lamborghini Miura Dodge Challenger r/t that's page one there's page two you want to see page three there's page three decide what's going to work in the morning do that if you could I shouldn't confess that it I would but look I only have one wife look at the wife but I have one I have one I have a wife at 150 wouldn't you rather your man came home reeking of transmission fluid instead of cheap perfume since you spend so much time going to the car? shows things like that well, that's really all I do.

I work in my garage. I like working on cars and yes, you will like this story. I took my McLaren F1 out and took it to a car show. I see these two scary guys. tattoo, you know, that thing on the neck with the cross, the tear at the end of the whole part and then I look at my car and I'm like oh boy and one of them says hey Gordon Murray, I designed this right now, yeah, and then The Other Guy asked about David Stephen. I realized, now I'm prejudging you. Okay, I guess because they look different to me whether they're criminals or gangsters.

I felt very bad about this. I said these guys you've been in one of these. no no i said you wanted to go for a ride they said yes and i realized maybe this was a mistake and as big as they were outside they were huge in the car the boys headed over and when that tattoo it's here, you know what the spelling mistake was. and everything is fine so we are driving a law is good, it goes up here in the hills, there is no traffic, it is not good at this point, so there is a place called Canaan Road that goes over Malibu and there are some tunnels that go through the mountains, so I said well I would say well I will go through it through the mountains you have to listen to the f1 but I go up flight seven tons 125 when I come out of the tunnel the police call right here detained now I have two gang members They are going to control these guys, They'll be drug dealers, they'll tow Mike McLaren, they'll put a hitch on him and drag him to the warehouse, they'll arrest them for moving on, bro, so the couples and the highway patrolman.

What are you doing? Yes, how quickly you left. Both guys go. We are police officers. That's a complete victory. We didn't get that at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Now I need it. taking a car for a spin with the steering wheel on the right side the steering wheel is on the wrong side the spring was broken and the

gear

lever was broken and I sold that British tradition to you, how was it? Well, I mean, I wanted that. Helen will beat me, mirror mom, okay, Helen Mirren, where is she? Yeah, she has to wait 150, okay, that's it, yeah, well, I think I did better than that, if we find out how Jay did, here's your turn in a second, here we go.

We are fuming at the beginning, you know, driving a race car is like sex, or men think they are good at it, they say we have a soft style, there we can learn a lot from everyone, very soft, very like sex disguised. Nora, man, or I can't say that, can I dress up as a cowboy? That's smooth again, that's a little better. Lisa didn't miss a single march that time, there it is, this is the hammerhead shark, this is where you can make or break your act. you should be pleased with yes, it looks good, it looks very good, maybe a little faster, Stig is a pretty good instructor considering he doesn't blow up, let's take a look at this, obviously, this is completely flat, yeah, oh, that's fast, that was very. quick third, come on, this is the heart, yeah, that's what I call a curve, now it's Gambon, that's Michael Gambon, maybe a little too much understeer, but there we are on the other side of the line, let's see how you do was.
