Car football was quality I HATE football with a passion, but that was funny as fook

ProDrive P2 thing looks mental - typical tho that they won't build it

There wasn't a challenge this week tho

It means Clarkson is commenting on what the vast majority of people hear when you go by, as in that car sounds odd, WTF does anti lag mean and why does it sound like a missfire

I'm just over 30 & understood him...so unless you are MUCH over that you sohlud have no excuse....

Gambon also made me laugh.
Clarkson should have mentioned it was called wastegate chatter tho...something else for the thickos from work to ask me stoopid questions about now
