cant have been live rounds. Not with him in the car. Once he was out, then sure, they prolly did. Well obvo they did with the tracers.

Imagine the Risk Assesment the'd have to do if it used live rounds the whole time lol

yeah i found that stupid, probably doing it because of all the internet warriors saying the r26r is better, which it only, around a race track.

I think they should have celebritys or people with actual interesting car history on the interview bit. Not some cocky streak of piss who can run fast.

Interesting how the Focus has shit loads of torque steer as well! Revo-Knu....what?

Take your hands off the wheel in even a low powered fwd car and I'll bet it will pull a fair bit. Was hardly a great indication of torque steer.

Well fucking well.

That just proves what a fuck load of shit Top Gear really is and what a biased wank stain Mr Clarkson really is.

That torque steer is 10x worse than any Astra could ever produce and yet he tells us the VXR is "undriveable" "useless" yet now a car with horrific torque steer but an RS badge on the back that's perfectly ok.

And seeing the way that handled around that track confirms that the car isn't that good at all, talked up by the press.

Was so pleased the R26R won, sick to death of RS this RS that when infact it's pretty fucking average.

Evo 7s start at about 7-8k for a 01 GSR. Lisa sold hers to a garage about a year ago for 8k.
