They're trying to get around the ring in a Van under 10 minutes. Can't wait to see the episode. Top Gear seems to be in love with the ring. images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Not as fun as a Van if you gonna take a Ferrari or Porshe.

I would rather take the New CCR koenigsegg.

But it wount be as fun as with the van.

on a Ferrari it would just be very normal, if its a Van it would be funny as hell... and if Hammond manages to beat Clarkson in his Diesel Jag images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Hehe, Clarkson can't show his face at the Ring again huh?

I am very much looking forward to this episode. They used a Viper for a chase/camera car? That's class!

Oh, for people who have yet to visit that site listed above, there's some spoilers there.
