Default Top Gear in Las Vegas!!!

Here are some pics I got from my friends facebook.

Hammond in SRT Viper


Aston Martin Vanquish


Clarkson in LFA


LFA vs NSX
NSX engine is stock besides an exhaust.
Jeremy ran a 12.2 in the LFA and NSX pulled a 13.9.


James May aka Captain Slow


Richard Hammond aka The Hamster


Jeremy Clarkson aka Jezza

He called LFA "spectacularly brilliant" and "superb" car.

He also picked LFA recently as his most favorite car he would want to drive home.

His view on the LFA changed dramatically in his recent review of the car. They were filming an episode right?

That is until he actually drove it. He had been steadfast in refusing to drive it until recently.

Yes, they are shooting a Christmas special.

I'm glad he's man enough to admit he was wrong though. Not everyone is.
