The Chevy breaking a drive shaft doesn't show it in the best light. Clarkson driving like an idiot and losing a tyre was "for TV" which isn't unexpected but not really necessary. Definitely quite entertaining though :)
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

True enough, but it does at least have more torque than it has build quality, and the Chevy definitely has the better engine for the job - not one of these silly ones whose fuel is ignited by electricity and string. :D

Love the look of the f150 Raptor but prefer the idea of Mays car, big lazy oil burning torque monster... if only we could mix the 2?

It mat not have the viewers of TG however, they are going after the classic car people.
This is what TG does not do? They are tapping in to the huge area of interest on classic cars by people.



TG is more like LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE WITH CARS with the viewers waiting for things to go wrong as they always do?
