Hope you can help

My son told me he watched a Top Gear repeat where a T350 spanked a Corvette and a Porsche in a sprint.
Anyone got a link to this or was he halucinating?

He's an astute lad.

Also spanks an NSX, a fezza and an Ascari.

That car was in Gorners show room just before they went under.

Think it was one of the factory cars they sent down for sale.

Quite right.

I was getting the yellow T350 mixed up with the old TG drag with the red Cerb.

Easy mistake to make

Nice one
Just upgraded my account, shouldn't be going down with bandwidth problems for a long time

If you are gonna download try and get it in by the end of the month - I've got at least 20GB bandwidth free until the 1st

Sorry guys, there was the Red Cerbera, an Aston, a Porche, a Caterham(or Westfield) can't remember which and one other - memory lapse. It was featured on a Clarkson Video that was used to demo the Cerb's performance at the Motorshow in '95. It did not include exotics like the McClaren or similar and was limited to "production" models.

Ferrari & Lamborghini refused permission for any of their cars to take part once they saw the opposition.

The cars in the Red Cerbera clip were a Red Lotus Esprit, Red Dodge Viper, blue 911 turbo, green (what else!) Aston V8 vantage, and a Caterham, with the result that the Cerb spanked the lot.....

Thanks for that.

To fill in the gap the Ferrari, Ascari and 911 were in the Top Gear International race when they NOzed the Jag. So I was wrong twice.



I'm sure they could have just used a Tiv instead.
