I am now convinced most sports are better played with cars... Soccer, hockey and now rugby...

Ya, this is a great show. The American one cannot compare because it is a wanna be. I have all the seasons on NetFlix. 
This one impressed me.....Buggatti

Jeremy had tested the original Ariel Atom that had the Type R Civic engine and i can't remember if it was turbo'd or squeezed. But it is worth the time watching the episode to watch his face get pulled apart.
Another one to watch is the one where Hammond tries to break the British land speed record in a jet car and writes it off. he would have achieved it if he had of crashed the car going the opposite direction, but sadly there wasn't a car left after he wrecked it going the first direction to wreck it again in the other direction lol

If I remember right I think it came in like 6th, beating out the Porsche carrera, at a quarter of the price.
I'm watching Episode #4 right now.

So I finally got around to catching up to the new season... I was watching the one were they were drag racing at Las Vegas motor speedway... How the hell were they just getting stomped by everything?? I could maybe understand some built evos/ sti but a Chrysler crossfire beating a dodge viper??? Haha seriously??
a mod'd car can beat a stock car, even as stupid fast as they are. There is a 660 hp (dyno'd reputable shop) '07 Legacy GT around here that can beat most things on the road
