Hey Mark, mayby keep that coop book on hold - see what Clarkson does

Great stuff! Can't wait for this to appear, I wonder what the competition will be?

Good idea.

The producer said that he hadn't given them any yet because they were still making them so it could be anything. I did ask if he could have the challenge where they rolling road the cars and minus a point per horsepower lost from factory power. Would love to see how much it was running.
Not sure what they would have done if it was running 400bhp!!!!

Well now i dont like him, what does he know eh?

He knows a good car when he sees one!!

Mark, go on, see what you can get from Clarkson aswell. What a great book it would make.

Yeah some material from Clarkson would be pretty cool. I'm sure he'd contribute as well!

I wonder how this will affect prices after it air`s?? should i sell before or after the episode? it may look fantastic value or get ripped to shredds depending on how they want to stage it!! is is tv after all.
How many of the tests looked fixed
Will be cool to see a coup on topgear though

Ps sell my scots green 20vt

Prices can't get any lower or they'd be given away, plus, there's no such thing as bad publicity

Was the engine a good one pulling strong?

Hmmm, anything is worth a try!!

20V_Turbo - have you any contact details for the people you talked to??

I'd quite like to see if i can get something for the book!

AWSOME, i have a green one too lol

They might even release one or two shots if you ask nicely.

I emailed Top Gear two years ago suggesting that they arrange a lap of the track/time trials with UK car club representatives (including of course FCCUK )

So the competition may turn out to be Hamster in a Lambo owners car versus May in an Aston owners car versus JC in a Coupé

All unmodded of course..or time deduction for power ups.
Where would we come

I've just sent a message through the top gear website 'contact us' page, as a start.

Any other suggestions for getting in touch with JC, let me know!!

Well, if your already in touch with them as if they'll plug fccuk.org and the forum and if they'll put some stickers on the car if I send them in.

guys,

i had a call from BBC about this.

Tehey asked about the car, and what i thought if it etc as i did the belts.

The car is going to be Clarksons car for 1 of the upcoming shows. They wouldnt disclose too many details on what was planned, but from the hints he gave it sounds like a 'fast car for £1000' show.

should be interesting to see.

So this car *should* give a good showing?

Im well excited

Ross

well im not sure really. i only did the belts, so not sure of the cars overall condition as such.

They mentioned they may book in for a healthcheck so i can see if it will take a hammering, whilst their own team of guys will check that its safe electrically, and that the brakes work properly etc.

Slip a GTECH+PRV in there while you're at it

lol, do it!

Please find an exhaust and rear bumper for the poor thing.

We should start a collection

GTEC

I've got one sat infront of me doing nothing if you want to sneak it in.

Gtec disguised to look like the standard chip

Take a dump in it and hide it under the seat

Great stuff!

Was this the green one you brought round to my house ?

Awesome!
