If you have the opportunity to watch it...

It's an absolute hoot!

(Gotta go, their playing darts by shooting cars - yes cars - from a cannon)

Last week they took raced a DB9 against the fastest train in France (the car won)

AND

Then they raced a world rally car against a bobsled (the bobsled won but not by much)

This week, it was a car with GPS navagation vs homing pigeons (the pigeons won)

Then the comparison between the Ferarri 360CS and the Porshe GT3 was too much fun.

For a bunch of English chaps, they put on a good show.

It's a great show.  Been downloading their episodes off the web for years.  I'm happy it's finally being aired in the US!  Jeremy Clarkson cracks me up.

5th Gear on Speedvision is good too (mmmmm Vicky), and it's been on for awhile.  Too bad they keep showing reruns - there hasn't been a new episode since the end of 2004.
