I was amused to see that when they transmitted the prog all the E&M logos and been (rather badly) obliterated from the background... I guess E&M didn't want to pay extra for the TV exposure and the production company threw them out of the pram...!

If the road is long enough the race Tuscan will comfortably exceed 180mph, with standard gearing. The bonnet does try to rip itself off though.

On a UK race track it won't get to 180mph. At Bruntingthorpe - 190mph+ ....
