Motoring magazine presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. This week, the Yorkshire Dales provide the backdrop for an epic contest between three exquisite cars, the Jaguar XK, the BMW650i and the Mercedes SL350 and a frozen lake in Iceland is the setting for a race between a powerful rally car and a [b:cdd9530d95]jet powered kayak[/b:cdd9530d95]. Chef Gordon Ramsey is the star in the reasonably priced car and Jeremy, James and Richard wreak havoc on the roads of southern England when they hijack a live drive time radio show in Brighton.

Im hoping that this means its on tonight (bbc2, 8pm)

True: [b:3b24f8a4c7]www.topgear.com/content/tgonbbc2/[/b:3b24f8a4c7]"... [i:3b24f8a4c7]Richard drives a stupidly fast Tom Cat rally car in Iceland and narrowly avoids messing his pants when he hits a rock during a race with a jet-propelled kayak[/i:3b24f8a4c7]".
have fun

i think the best bit was when shaun said he coouldnt get any ice particles into the engine caus it would make it break so the tested it in a glacial lake/ river what a nutter!

But he still beat the stupidily fast rally car
