trust me i read your posting and see what you mean. but that doesnt explain the esp turned on which reduces torque and power. we can argue all day, but i think it can be quicker around the track than 1:18.3... so far take care good night

I realise this is a bit late but I've been in Vietnam for the past two weeks... coming back home to low humidity and 2 TG episodes has taken my mind off the post-holiday blues, that's for sure.
Another awesome ep... solid 9... seems to me this series has been the most consistent since series 8. James in the Zonda was priceless. Even the diesel challenge was a great watch despite being rather beige by nature. I personally would have taken a Landcruiser Prado with the 180L fuel tank and just driven like a tool. Even at 20mpg you would make it with dino juice to spare.

The whoooooooosh of the Veyron sounds really cool to me, actually. It sounded almost menacing.

What I liked about this episode was the economy race from Basel to Blackpool and James' first power test (Pagani Zonda F vs Bugatti Veyron).
The only things I didn't like about the ep was James' attempt to introduce the Stig and Richard complaining about not testing the Zonda, as well as complaing about it being better than Veyron despite the drag race. |

i just realize that the Buggatti Veyron had a noticeable dent on the right hand side under the door.
