They had 3 old cars, and they were doing tasks like putting the handbrake on a 33% ramp, and driving over a very cobbly(sp) road with eggs above their heads.

The last task they had to do was fill all the cars up with water and see how far they could get around the track

Is that a fair new episode out of curiosity, or years old?

Yeah, it was Hammonds.

I was pissing myself at the way James and Richard were trying to jump out of their cars as quick as possible in case they rolled backwards when they were still halfway in the car
