Okay, so we're not quite done with our
0:36
day trip just yet. This one's a bit
0:38
higher pace, but just as scenic, taking
0:40
in some beautiful traditional sites as
0:42
we pass under the Matsumi Great Bridge.
0:45
So, let's roll out.
0:52
>> Going to feel a bit faster in this
0:54
section of the day.
1:18
As seasons pass, the palette of all of
1:20
nature's many colors transform every
1:22
region. From barren white snow where
1:25
plants are sparse to spring where
1:26
flowers explode into vivid life, Japan
1:29
drastically evolves with the seasons and
1:31
each one is such a sight. I have climbed
1:34
Mount Fuji by the way as a part of an
1:36
expedition. Took 12 long, grueling
1:39
hours. There's an old Japanese proverb,
1:42
you are wise to climb Mount Fuji, but a
1:45
fool to do it twice. I'm taking that on
1:47
face value. My legs still ache, but the
1:50
views, you have to do it once.
1:54
This next lineup of cars you should have
1:56
seen on a racetrack somewhere. But
1:58
remember, this is a guided tour, not a
2:00
race. I need time to read you all my
2:03
nice facts.
2:13
Tricky corner up ahead. Slow it down.
2:29
Heat. Heat.
2:47
Okay, the reason why you booked on is
2:49
coming up. The Bandai Azuma Skyline.
2:52
Bandai Azuma Skydine offers a beautiful
2:55
drive. It's like a high-speed nature
2:57
bath and a serious test of your driving
2:59
skills. Roll the door. Now, let's not
3:01
forget to mention this is one awesome
3:03
road to drive on. Snaking, turning back
3:06
on itself. It makes demands from those
3:08
that push limits.
3:10
As with many roads in this area, they
3:12
were built to cut through the expansive
3:14
forests. Trees are often replanted using
3:17
techniques that preserve the root
3:18
systems. So rather than demolish, we
3:21
simply move. Japan cares for its green
3:23
spaces. Where transplant is not
3:25
possible, new growth is the next best
3:27
option.
3:29
Turn your attention to the Lotus Xie Cup
3:31
430 Driving with us.
3:34
A lighter but more aggressive track car
3:36
from the British manufacturer thanks to
3:38
its carbon fiber body panels and
3:40
aluminum exhaust weighing in at just
3:42
over a metric ton. When Lotus says
3:45
simplify then add bitness, you get this
3:48
race ready beast.
3:55
Okay, I'm going to do you all a favor
3:56
and be quiet for a moment. This spot
3:59
right here is perfect for one thing. Top
4:02
speed. support.
4:19
We have another view of Fuji to your
4:20
right. Coming up on the left, you'll be
4:23
able to see a traditional Tori gate.
4:25
These gates represent a passageway
4:27
between the earthly realm and the sacred
4:29
realm of the spirits.
4:31
These gateways, traditionally made from
4:33
wood and stone, are each a unique work
4:35
of art.
5:07
Right then, ready to switch things up?
5:09
End this day trip in a blaze of glory.
5:11
The correct answer is yes, Jordi. I'll
5:14
also accept a strong affirmative nod at
5:15
the head. So, we are looking at hitting
5:18
a speed zone. And that is,
5:20
>> we all know what a speed zone is, Jordy.
5:23
Come on, let's go.
5:30
>> You want to look like a blur to a speed
5:31
zone camera? You want relentless
5:37
speed? That's an M's machine works
5:40
Porsche Cayman GT3 built to take off
5:43
your laps. With the face and engine of a
5:45
911, it's been precision engineered to
5:48
dominate on the time attack circuits.
5:50
This is a fiercely competitive time
5:52
attack car, ideal for setting blistering
5:54
lap times.
5:55
>> Hey, thank you both. Supporting my day
5:58
trips is now being serious here. Really
6:01
sweet,
6:03
>> mate. Anytime. I'll keep joining as long
6:05
as I can add a bit of a twist. deal.
6:08
It's better when you two are here. So,
6:10
if the price to pay is to go fast,
6:12
that's fine, buddy.
6:43
Hey. Hey. Hope you had a blast out
6:45
there. Saw some cool stuff, right?
6:48
>> We did, mate. Okay, I got some events to
6:51
smash. I'll see you both later.
