Anyone watch it?

How cool was the race between the F1 car, the superbike, and the powerboat?

It was also raised as the runway was bumpier than a normal race track. That'll definately make it slower

I cannot believe how fast the BAR was compared to the Fireblade Quality wheelie he did on the last run

It would have been fairer to use the RCV GP bike but that's not going to happen on a car show

i gonna try and get my hands on a capri that i know of after watching that, i know a bird that brought a 2.8, it still had original seats and headunit etc......

but she blew the headgaskets and the exhaust needs replacing or welding.

hope she doesn't know how much they worth, cos she would sell it for about £150...
