    The making of the Mclaren P1 review for Top Gear UK at Spa Francorchamps. You will see some nice action with drifts/powersliding and with flames from the exhaust. The creators of the popular BBC motoring show, with James May, Richard Hammond and Jeremy Clarkson, currently working on the 21th season.

    That was a cool video Nate. :Thumbsup:

    I think it looks like a candidate for the new Bat mobile.

    They say it costs upwards of £1 million per episode to create Top Gear. You can see here where some of the costs come from.

    Rent Spa Francorchamps for a Day
    Rent Helicopter
    Rent MB Based Blacked out Camera Rig
    Travel and Lodging for Crew

    That stuff adds up fast.

    Thank you British Tax Payers for Top Gear!
