Not as crazy as a car against a helicopter or a jet, both of which he's done before. Would you moan about those matchups or just enjoy the spectacle?

The song in the beginning is pretty kool. Does anyone know what song that is?

Well that was actually a pretty crappy test. 1st the hampstring the C6 by being a convertible and having the roof off. Who the heck is going to do that. Secondly why didn't they use the Z06? That would have been a $$ match anyways.

Obvious they wanted the TVR to win by removing the roof of the $40,000 car. GEE, I WONDER WHY THE TVR CAUGHT UP AT HIGH SPEEDS!?

it's just entertainment guys, what they do has no merit really. Especially when they make stupid comparisons. They don't claim to be fair. Basically it's not even about cars, with all the comments in the show i'd sa it's a political one, or maybe patriotic, or more closely high school country-style show.
