    Anyone watch Top Gear tonight?

    When Clarkson was putting the old CTR on the track against the new one. Wasn't too surprised that the old one trounced it, because when I had a quick look at one the other day, it looked a bit podgy. I wonder how the Trophy would compare in comparison. Would be fairly interesting to see as...
