Not sure which car it was but they tried to race a car vs a harrier jump jet on an aircraft carrier? Car ended up in the sea. That was pretty funny although very short.

Re: Favorite Top Gear race/challenge
To date, i still haven't seen the north pole one. They are all good and have highs or lows. The Endurance race was good as you went through it with them, and Jezza i think actually cried at the end of that, so he showed some emotion!
The one with the climbers and the RS4 was cool, cause he actually got beat

America.
"Manlove"/"Nascar sux" still cracks me up. Absolute class. Aqua very close second tho'. May in the Herald with a mast, JC putting THAT engine on the back of a pick-up, waiting for him to "floor it". ............and Dave rulez. |

Re: Favorite Top Gear race/challenge
I liked the one where they had a race to get from one side of london to the other using different forms of transport:
Richard Hammond cycled The Stig used the tube (he must have been so hot in all his kit on the tube..!  )James May drove I think? and Jeremey Clarkson used a boat down the Thames The main reason I liked is is because Hammond won and Clarkson lost (for once!)  Maria |

Voted for the American one, just because it was a laugh a minute.
Wasn't so impressed with the North Pole, particularly after what I've heard about the woman running the dogs (She claimed she could do X miles a day, which a good team of dogs could do, but her team couldn't) |
