i'm gonna try to catch the BBC ad on my PC and upload it to Youtube, then i can post it here

This Reliant thing is going to be stupid. It's just going to blow up on launch pad.

I never even considred that as a possible outcome. Thinking about it, that probably will happen.

911 turbo current gen is pretty much my favourite 911 iteration, i cannot wait to see him rip it apart, and cannot wait to see it rip the track apart

 

[istanl]

Yeah I wanna see the SL too. I hope its the 730bhp version tho...

Well on that news article it said it took 4 months to build and was one of the largest rockets launced in the UK!!

I think it's going to fly, but very badly!!

Can't wait

It's going to be quite great episode this week I can't wait.. And my fav Porsche is coming out.. It will be on the test track, or only SL ? Maybe Turbo beats a Ford GT ! Hell yeah!!

Was the rocket firm the one who designed and made the "ski jumping rocket Mini" for the Winter Olympics episode?

Yup. Same guys. British Rocketry Association. They determined that the shuttle needed 8 tons of thrust to get it to the target of 3000 feet. Its gonna be fun.

 

[EndlessCorners]

A re-skinned version of episode 1. Yawn.

Looks like fun. Except that's not a Jag, it's a Daimler V8!

No matter how badly the shuttle goes, it'll be more sucessful than two yank attempts!

And James has finally found a barbers

 

[omarmakki]

Yay! James really looks much better now!

 

[man in a van]

And is it just me or do you think James needs a hair cut

Seems to check here as well

 

[poptya]

Meh, still waiting on the lp640, 599, and Ultimate Aero....

 

[Cervelo]

I thought he was going to test the SLR 722?

 

[omarmakki]

^^ Not sure they'll do that any time soon...
Remember how much time they needed to get one of the 399 Enzos? So, how much time do you think they'll need to get one of the 150 SLR 722s?? Unless Merc lends them one, which I highly doubt...

 

[dino_martini]

We're finally getting back to regular Top Gear. As much as I liked last episode, this is going to be a better episode in terms of over all car content. Maybe we will have a "the news" segment I hope the 911 Turbo wins, but I doubt it.

Looking at those pics I thought two things.

1. My god the F430 looks good in blue and

2. How many people actually get to watch the filiming and on what criteria do they choose the audience?

The choice is basically you get in touch with applause store and then you get a ticket seven or eight years later.

Can't wait

It'd be fun if it blows up, but even more fun if it actually lifts off. Maybe lift-off followed by a fireball is best. We'll see tonight. ^^

Woo. The Cool wall is back!
