Just checked the top gear site. You're so right jon_s! Wonder if richard recovered from the 911 hypnosis yet ;)

This week on Top Gear, Jordan showed us it IS possible to drive with your airbags fully deployed. Richard drove an American icon and Jeremy got his pants in a knot about which supercar he prefers.


Porsche GT3-RS vs Ferrari CS
The truth is, they are both amazing. And the figures speak for themselves, there wasn't any difference in their Stig powered lap time - 1 min 22.3 secs

cant wait ....

hehe, indeed. This episode was really superb!!
They had everything.
spoiler warning!!!

- The 360CS vs 911 GT3 RS was the highlight of course. What's to say... it's hard to make it any better. Those cars really do seem to corner like they're on rails, couldn't believe my eyes sometimes. If they could do that with the engine of the SLR implanted under their superlight skin (I know that would make them heavier), they would vaporise the SLR's time.
- The guest tonight was also euhm, ... how to put it... interesting. Interesting in a way, that it would be interesting to see her without those pink clothes. Man normally I don't really like big fake boobs, but I still would like to get my hands on those :twisted:
- JC, Richard & James bought a car with a budget of 100 pounds and conducted some testing with them: verry funny :lol:

So they covered all areas really: they had a big boobed bimbo, 2 supercars that steal any car freaks hart and made us laugh...

The only small comment I can give: the new series seems to have lots of flashing camera work. I like it more like before, I would like the camera shots to be a bit longer so I can have a better look at the cars... but hey that's just a tiny weeny small remark in one of the best hours of car entertainement EVER!!!

I wouldn't have guessed you like jordan :wink: judging by the amount of pics you post of her. I can't believe her book is number one in the charts :shock: she is gonna make a fair bit of money out of it- doesn't need ralph schumacher anymore :wink:

And richcard will think the 911 GT3 RS is the faster car on the track under "proper" condition :D

The Stig made a little mistake in the 360 CS lap, so that would be (slightly) faster. Anyone noticed the little mistake in the CS-GT3 part? Jeremy said the interior of the CS was that spartan, it even hadn't got a radio. But the Stig had turned the radio on in his fast lap... :D

Didn't you guys notice in the last series they had the M3 CSL with no radio and the stig had it on, he's magic :wink:

Indeed, the 360CS could maybe gotten around a bit faster, but he was certainly driving on the edge. And the GT3RS could maybe also get around a bit faster. Fact is that they're a very close match. Would love to see BM do a race with those 2. The GT3RS is also more stable and easier to drive apparently. But the 360CS seems to be more fun, maybe just because it's more twitchy.

You're right they could always do slightly better, but this mistake was just so obvious...
BM doing a race with the M3 CSL, 360 CS and GT3RS that would be nice :wink:
