Err....

Has to be the worse experts so far....

I just thought that! That explanation was at best, ropey, and at worse, wrong.

It seems to me producers suddenly realised they had no female experts in the series so far so panicked. Such a shame they didn't choose some women in previous episodes and bunged less knowledgeable experts in this episode. Although Helene was a top choice.

He'd be doing the same!

I know I was

I would have thought that the aerodynamics would have been the area most investigated rather than brakes.

It looks a bit high.

Great show though, don't really care if the experts are all men or all women.

I would think that if you plan to do 90 mph down a mountain that brakes would be the thing you really want to work properly!

Clearly but they are just off the shelf, pick up a catalogue stuff.

The wishbones and wheels are both terrible from an aero and from a structural point of view, lot of potential lost there.

Just about to say that, the basic design is terrible in so many ways.

There's been a serious lack of crashing in this episode.

So far. This doesn't look good.

I love the program, I like Guy, but the amount of basic stuff that has been overlooked with all the machines this season is seriously disappointing.

A whole segmant about push starts and they are now wearing tight jeans for a push start

Is that water or wee dribbling out?

[secretagentbloke]

F**k me! that was a big 'un. I see on his visor that he is sponsored by the top purveyor of pork scratchings, Mr. Porky ! :-D

[The Vambo]

Either a bottle burst or Guy pissed himself

[KTF]

Rolled over and contained within the thing as per the design. Cue unintentional drama from the voiceover person.

[Laurel Green]

77 PSI? Seems a tad low.

tears of laughter I reckon! Loved the look on his face "I've scratched me lid". Ace.
