If Callum can build this race car in under 24 hours, he get's to race it for an entire season at some of the best tracks in the UK. The Caterham Academy series is the best way to get into racing, with 50 drivers on the grid that are all complete novices. They all learn together, how to build speed, overtake and ultimately race together.

This is Callum, he’s a massive racing fan. He’s such a racing nerd he’s spent HUNDREDS of hours in his simulator - but this year he gets to live the dream and go racing in the Caterham Academy. A super close race series for novice drivers, so I’ll be coaching Callum to be the fastest driver he can be!

So this Caterham needs to be built PERFECTLY as I’m going to be racing it in the Caterham Academy Championship - which is meant to be the perfect way to get into motorsport. With two grids of 25 cars, the racing is incredibly close! But, one bolt not torqued, or one spacing washer wrong - and the crash could be enormous.

    Whoever cut to the footage of Callum crashing is a bloody legend.
  • @toastyeeter
    We've seen how this went on Top Gear, this looks like it'll be fun!
  • The amount of content is insane (and the quality too!) Something tells me Scott has a bunch of money to burn and plenty of contacts ;)
  • @Duckshoe398
    Congratulations to Callum and to all of the Overdrive crew for becoming a real racing team! I cant wait to see more racing videos from this channel.
  • Building a race car in 24 hours? That's like trying to bake a wedding cake in a microwave
  • This is the content we want! Driving tips from a pro to an amature and some close racing and car building to boot !
  • @carolinagg233
    i absolutely love that this video is longer than the others! i believe your content really suits long form (20ish min) videos rather than the shorter 10 min ones! thanks for the great video!
  • This channel is the greatest thing to happen in the world of cars since the peak of Top Gear! Keep up the fine work gentlemen! It’s second to none!
  • @pjsw
    What a fantastic investment for the channel and future content can't wait to follow along the race journey
  • @SpaceMissile
    I was like "man, this is such a daunting task" but then I saw it all laid out at 1:27 and got that "Oooh, Lego!" feeling that Callum talks about immediately after. lol
  • @RacingPepe
    This would have been amazing content for a livestream. You bet people will watch you for 16 hours straight.
  • @Tommmcat1990
    Would love to see a bunch of automotive YouTube channels entering this championship. That would be way better than watching YouTubers boxing each other 😅
  • @petiertje
    This is so cool! Great job on building this car Callum and Will! congrats 🙂 I look forward to the racing video's.
  • @DukeICT
    So incredible!! Job well done guys. Great video, I can’t wait to watch you race.
  • @crazycjk
    This was such a cool episode and can't wait to see it develop into a proper series! Is it just me, or is that front negative camber 20:56 extremely aggressive!?
  • @KrakenZSV
    They went from 24h to wrap a car to 24h building a whole car. They're fast learners 😁
  • @koganmb
    I've built two Caterham in the US, this video makes it look much easier than it really is. The manual appears to have improved significantly and the parts kits look more complete and organized.
  • @CliffWheeler
    Super excited for Callum, gonna be a exciting racing season! 😎 Overdrive killing it with the content!
