This season, we shall be seeing the follwoing things:

-A top Gear space shuttle
-Driving from Miami to New Orleans With a hillbilly stig (NASCAR driver then)
-A man versus car across the humber with the 159
-Hammond... in an F1 car ( clarkson was too tall, apparently, or too close to a heart attack :p)
-A train crashing into what looks like a renault espace (a PIS film)
and a TT vs Brera vs RX8 (lets guess hwo that goes, TT best drive, Brera best looking the RX8 the cheapest)

and apparently there's been 300 Top gear filsm.

thats... it

so it looks like we'll be getting some reviews!

i think the RX-8 will win
Cheap, grate engine and superb handeling
the only thing against it is the engine (goes to hell often and drinks more then a hummer... at times)

The man versus car across the Humber is a James challenge. It took place back in April. James had to drive along the old route, back before the Bridge existed and the guy ran across at low tide.

-A train crashing into what looks like a renault espace (a PIS film)
PIS stand for Public Information Service? Will it end with "the more you know", I can see it know clarkson picks up some kids then parks on a railroad gets out of the espace with kids playing within and says "every year some people are killed because of trains" just then the train takes out the espace fade to star and The more you know
