hey, if you guys need any tips on watching the latest episodes,

I recommend that you either go on youtube the day after and search "top gear" and then sort by "Date Added" it should be there

A site that i have been using pretty lately is http://www.inautonews.com

now on a side note...emma watson is pretty hot

I'd take the Porsche only because I think it's probably a better engineered car.

The caravaning was funny; dispite Clarkson's overly tall caravan, I think it was shaping up to be the best at everything. I thought May's creation was very unexpected though, it seems like maybe he's starting to discover a little bit of go-fast

Clarkson's idea was great but could have been better...

Clarkson should have used the LR. Have one section in the back and have the two other levels side by side on top of the LR and the first section. It would of helped with the aerodynamics.

Clarkson actually got a Veyron up to its 253 MPH top speed (in KMH, of course) on a track in a recent Top Gear show....I watched it with some friends. That sensation is unbelievable. Slowing down, he thought he was almost stopped...and found he was still doing 70.
