Video: TG USA host breaks twin-car loop record

We kind of expected this. The Americans, as they are, have gone one bigger than our valiant double-loop and set a new (and entirely made up) Guinness World Record for looping two cars at the same time.

Top Gear USA host, Tanner Foust (yellow car), and stuntman Greg Tracy took to the 66-foot Hot Wheels loop simultaneously at 52mph - pulling a fighter pilot-like seven Gs in the process - at the annual X-Games in Los Angeles.

Now, check out the video and fight the urge to head up to the loft to pull your old Hot Wheels loop out.
