This worked wth a standard helmet, but didnt with one of the stig-style DLC ones.
As you can see, the top of my helmet is sticking out the top of the roof slightly. Its quite hard to see whilst moving, especially if you have a dark helmet.

Some say that he isn't Jeremy Clarkson. And judging by that picture, he isn't.

What's actually happened there is the XJ220 has started developing red spots from puberty.

Though it's 20 years old, so that wouldn't quite work.
 
Yeah its quite funny. I was going to post a thread but forgot!

But It can be quite annoying when taking photos though. 👎
 
Same happened to me when I'm driving it on the La Sarthe :lol:
 
You need too run that car over too Shelby so he can put a Gurney bump in it for you.
 
wonder if that is down to a lowered ride height - GT2 used ot have peek a boo front wheels that was very annoying
 
That model looks all around awful.

:lol: I saw some of those at Barrett Jackson last year when he had all of his Le Mans GT40's and Cobra's and stuff.
 
Clarkson got to drive a GT40 with a bump built into the roof, he didn't fit otherwise (the clip is on Youtube), I guess he was glad when the GT added an inch or two to the height.
 
I think the same thing happens with the Ford GT40 for some drivers in real life.

That's the same reason that the Viper GTS got the two bumps in the roof.
