Man, that lake. What a place.

Was that mysterious racing driver Mike Skinner by any chance?

The ghost of Mike Skinner back to haunt them

That's great. Perhaps you'd have enjoyed it even more on a bike

Would have been far more uncomfortable and less convenient in regards to travel supplies / luggage.

Never had a problem in cars as done it in M3, Mustang and SVR, the narrow roads were never an issue just use common sense and make use of passing points.

Visibility is so good we were able to pilot the Mustangs at some insane speeds without issue, was fabulous fun.

Crap special. Felt more like an extended VT than a dedicated special with a purpose.

Did laugh at the bit where Clarkson burnt his hands on the hot surfaces though

What I can say is the off roading in the race trucks they did doing the huge jumps is huge fun as I’ve done that on that track in Vegas too.

It’s such immense fun it’s crazy and the landing as they said is surprisingly comfortable, I’ve got video clip of me doing one of the jumps on my Instagram with Roman (der8auer) from Caseking we had huge fun there and literally kept the place open to the point we were doing it in darkness with all the spotlights on, was such an incredible day. Highly recommend it!

We just went out in to the desert in buggies (smaller ones than these) when I went to Vegas, no track or anything. I almost flipped it arse over nose

I did like the dig at the gnat's wee americans call coffee. Shaving the coffee bean with a razor blade was straight out of Goodfellas.

I found this week's the most classic Top Gear yet. Really enjoyed it.

I thought he was shaving a glove of garlic in Goodfellas?

It was indeed. Seeing Clarkson doing that with the coffee bean just had me remembering that whole cooking in the prison scene.

That French siren lol

Great bit on nasa by May, you can almost see getting to drive that car was overwhelming for him, thats a true petrol head moment.

 

[Glanza]

The James May bit was really good, that's been two for two so far this season.

 

[HoneyBadger]

I also liked the James May bit, the other bits were a bit blah.

 

[Mr Jack]

That was an especially self-indulgent episode. May being self-indulgence is usually entertaining though.

I really enjoyed the James May / NASA section, I know he does a few other shows in a different style to TGT so I may have to start watching them
