Looking @ the preview so far, looks like Topgear and 5th Gear are going to opposite ends LOL. I hope the Turbo will go around in a dry track.

Reliant building will be a laugh but I am afraid I know what wil happen - Richard will try to add million of different stupid gismo's and all of them will be glued to the interior so they can fall down while James will explain him that its all "rubbish" and try to put a leather sofa inside

997TT, nice.. although a bit late.
Now they just need to test the R8, LP640, GT3 RS and the 599GTB.
And that's it.

I'm interested what this "insanely-tuned" SL is and the lap time for the 997T. The 996T did a pretty poor lap time in the rain.

More detailed info from the TG homepage:
Strap yourselves in ladies and gentlemen, because this week's Top Gear is even more power-crazed than usual.
Jeremy goes seriously schnell as he takes the latest 720bhp creation, from mentalist German manufacturer Brabus for a spin on the test track.
We give Porsche's latest 911 Turbo flagship a full shake down, and see whether the everyday supercar has become a bit, well, everyday.
And Richard and James embark on Top Gear's biggest ever challenge, as they try to turn a Reliant Robin into a space shuttle. Trust us, you really, really don't want to miss this.
Plus comedy actor Simon Pegg will be joining us in the studio and doing his bit on the test track in our reasonably priced car.

Looks fantastic. It must really burn Tiff and Plato that they are stuck with 2nd Gear.
