Very entertaining & 'fun' like "Top-Gear" (THE Programme) always is, hence why it appeals even to Girls !!!!!!!!!
The pint-sized presenter, (the already well known Richard Hammond) shot to international notoriety (around a year ago now), when his Rocket-fuelled Dragster (that was being filmed for this VERY same series) crashed after a high speed tyre-blowout that almost cost him his life !!!!!!!!)
Ironically, THAT actual incident/crash, happened at Elvington - the very same wartime Handley-Page Halifax airfield, that the 'controversial' composite airframe "Friday the 13th" is now based (& was 'built' at)..........
NOT to be confused with the REAL/actual Friday the 13th's base/airfield, which was RAF Lisset, with 158 Sqdn, to the East of Yorkshire.
Topical, as so much anguish is being expressed at the moment, regarding Corgi's Friday the 13th release (will it/won't it be wearing 'dual-nationality' markings - I doubt it, hope I'm not wrong), Elvington's worth a visit, nonetheless.
Those gorgeous Eurofighter/Typhoons fly over my front-garden from Mon-Thursdays, as they are banking round, to practise 'mock-attacks' on the N.A.T.O. bombing/strafing range opposite where I live - see almost as many now, as I do Tornado's & USAF F.15-E strike-Eagles, from the 48th Fighter-Wing from Lakenheath..........
Wonderful looking (& sounding) plane - GREAT to watch, but un-interesting in die-cast form (Glad it crushed the Bugatti, though !)
If 'Jeremy Clarkson' were driving, he wouldn't have come out with the "you're useless" comment at the end of the Vid'.
He got HAMMERED by a 34 year old German Woman, round the Nurburgring, in a Jaguar & was made to look like a 'right-***k-head' !!!
