[Richard's Triumph Dolomite Sprint has just failed the handbrake test, nearly running him over as it rolls freely backward down the slope]
Richard

[The Dolly Sprint crashes into the 33.3% Grade sign at the bottom of the slope]
Richard
Sorry! Sorry, that's gone badly wrong. It's gonna come - sorry!
James
[looking on with Clarkson and laughing] Having failed the handbrake test, he's knocked down the sign warning him how steep the hill is.
James
[voiceover] Still, every cloud and all that...
Richard
Very good test of how fast it goes... backwards... with the handbrake on.
