Should you really spoil all of the race results and such like this? I think one to two preview pics along with a text description is good. I had to quickly scroll down to avoid looking at the numbers , and I would rather watch the episode to see whats in it specifically.

Don't forget they took away the Westfield and Radical lap times, for some reason. The Radical was 1:19images/smilies/wacko.gif?.

yeah but those cars are simply made for the track, all the other cars can be used somewhat for practical daily use, radio, air condition and a roof.
