Can't watch because not in UK...

Apologies. Thought it would work anywhere. Turbo cab beats the R8 spyder 0-100-0 mph and is 2 secs faster around the track (1 min 12.9 secs).

I love Top Gear but I sure wish someone would bring 5th Gear to the US as well.

DrVolkl Jun 13, 2010 02:32 PM

Those guys are great! God I love my Cab...

They could show it on Speed TV. Top Gear is on BBCUSA!!!

Nice vid. Always like this show. Would like to see the Stig run these two cars without the sliding and hijinks though. I love Tiff Needell and Jason Plato but I think the results would be more accurate with one driver and better timing equipment lol. Im sure the TCab is the faster car but not ready to believe 2 secs faster with that unscientific timing equipment.
