    I love it. I used to watch it every night before bed - my new favorite gear is 6th.

    Have you seen the Top Gear episode where the same woman drives a diesel Ford transit van around in about 10 mins?

    Now that was impressive. She was following a Dodge Viper to give her some clean air. She passed all sorts of cars and sportsbikes.

    All the best

    Actually, Now that I think about it, IIRC the first time she was on the show was a piece about her day job, which was as a sort of taxi driver around the 'ring. She would drive you round in her car, which I think was an e34 M5, but I could be wrong about that, it was a long time ago.

    This is the record holder:

    http://www.radicalextremesportscars....iefe/index.php

    Note these highlights:

    - 50mph to 100mph = 4 seconds
    - 70mph to 150mph = 12 seconds
    - 2.10 Lateral G at 122mph through the Schwedenkreuz corner
    - 147mph into Klostertal 1 corner
    - 160mph taken through the Schwedenkreuz corner
    - Braking forces of over 1.7 G into Bergwerg

    Can you imagine doing that for 90 minutes straight, as they used to do in F1? The cornering speeds are what really gets me. I can't even think that fast, let alone drive that fast. Awesome.
