Don't blame you. Ridiculous car. Did the lap time impress?

Look forward to seeing the new TG episode. I got a chance to ride in a US Spec GT-R last week. Just awesome. Interior is a sub par compared to European cars, but the performance is outstanding.

Quite a piece of kit, very clever nav with the speed restrictor on the road then turns off on the track.

The GTR is stunning and yes that lap time was amazing, Top Gear overall is rubbish though, too much chit chat not enough about cars, driving and motoring toomany silly tests of little 4x4s with the hunt chasing them

GTR in white, OMG is someone here learning the Porscha! way .........

Top Gear is more of a comedy show than a car show now, but I still really enjoy watching it. Its a far cry from Quentin WIlson and Chris Goffey in the ol' days!

I don't watch the Dragons Den so don't know what they are like, just thought they didn't come across very well on Top Gear!

Mind you I was a bit harsh from my usual sedate self must have been the excitement from the moto gp

Got my invite too, think I'm at the one in St Helens. Not too sure what involved i.e. driving it or not. I was highly tempted (I adored my 350Z so it was a natural choice) but timing wasn't good when it came to deposit time. Still desperate for one though.
