    Tomorrow (Saturday 25th April) will see an unusual 400 mile race from London to Edinburgh, between this:

    and this:

    If any UK readers see this, please consider driving north on the M1 tomorrow. Very slowly. Preferably with a caravan! :)

    Cheers

    Or if a caravan is unavailable, a Robin Reliant would be a great stand-in... :D

    Looks like it might be a fair race after all. James May is driving the Jag and Jezza is riding in Tornado's cab.

    Cheers

    How can it be fair? 'Captain Slow' probably won't get the Jag out of 2nd Gear!! :tb-biggrin:

    It hasn't been on yet. It will probably be in series 13 which starts in June. The actual race was staged today.

    Cheers

    I don't expect I will bother to watch. Most things on Top Gear are just plain silly...... (and I cannot stand motormouth) [​IMG]
