"Step away from the NSX."

Exactly.

How did he do it to swerve like that ? is that due to WET track ? is that what happen when I made a shap turn on wet asphalt ?

How's the possibility to roll over ?

to flip a nsx-r you would have to hit a curb......that thing is too solid to just flip

Where can I find somewhere to drive like that??!? :(

I've never been able to play around in my car cause there is no place to do it! I need to find a really big empty parking lot or soemthing. :'(

Find an abandoned airfield like they do. Of if you're feeling adventurous, go to an active one. :D

Tiff hasn't been on Top Gear for quite a while now; he's on 5th Gear with Vicki Butler-Henderson now. Jeremy Clarkson is the main presenter on Top Gear now, and the chap piloting the Hondas in that clip was Richard Hammond.

If you know of any empty airfields let me know. lol

When I'm rich someday maybe I will pave like a whole square mile of land somewhere just to drive around in. haha

Haha, trust me. If I knew of one, me and my boys would've been all over it already. :D

i've been wondering about that as well. one assumes a few calls to the BBC might secure one a position as Jeremy's new sidekick. after all, they did get rid of "fat bloke" as he was known, so i guess there's an opening.

Hahah, I like the part where he says, "its not a car anymore, its an engineer's play thing!"

Honda, give up, step away from the NSX!

he is right....the nsx is old...

looks good, handles good, is fast - still, its crazy old



13 years with the same basic body/engine!! wow

no other car has last that long, that I know of atleast.

The NSX style is awesome! You can't do too much more to tweak it. Seeing that video has just made me want a CTR that much more! I should never have watched it.

Oh yeah, you're right! If a bunch of people in EPs go, they'll think terrorists are coming in droves of MINIVANS! :D
