So you think you have a fast car.

Too bad we will never see it, you could save space by parking it under your Excursion :)

But if there was a way to get it here I would have one in a hot minute.
 
yeah...it's way cool....but hey, it's only tubes and pedal sets and brake calipers and such...I bet you could get half of it at Pegasus! Add an RX 8 rotary, some tweaking, and start welding!

Top Gear is (was) the BEST show on the tellie, but sadly Discovery, rumour has it, pulled the plug, after Jeremy Clarkson, ( a british journalist) wrote about what dummies we americans were for the whole Katrina thing in his London papers column. Sadly, he was largley right!

Anyway, I have no idea if it will get picked up again or not. Shame really, because the Brits blow us out of the water when it comes to TV car shows.

I am dying for them to put every show on DVD, or I would kill to find a download source.
 
Actually, there is a US distribtuor/manufacturer for this vehicle. Go to www.dpcars.net and check out video of a test drive by a guy (who is building his own sports racer) with a helmet cam. I believe it is on the DP1 page.
 
Imo Firth Gear is way better than Top Gear. And Tiff can drive circles around Jeremy Clarkson out on the track, too. ;) That guy is actually a very good driver, while on many occasions Mr. Clarkson seems so full of himself.
 
I agree...Tiff can drive...lots of good credentials...and just watch the goodwood reunion with him driving an old Jag saloon...crazy!
 
After watching this (with the normal biological reaction), I called my cardialogist to see if it was okay for me to get one. I hung up after 15 minutes of hearing him laugh. :D
 
But Clarkson is a hoot, is imaginative, and opinionated.

Sure Tiff can drive...but I'm not sure that's the point of Top Gear...

They have the "Stig" for that..(now on V3)

I guess that's the really nice way of putting it. :)

Having said that, I watch both shows when I can.
