911 racing a Gazelle (helicopter, not animal)

Go here: http://www.takeofftube.com/view/916/gazelle-helicopter-vs-porsche-911-gt3/

I guess "Fifth Gear" is some sort of "Top Gear" knockoff...

It looks like he was having a bit of fun....
He might have won by a larger margin if he stopped drifting.

Maybe if he'd stop yakking and pay attention to what's in front of him rather than above.

Fifth Gear is Top Gear with reviewers that can actually drive. I don't know how anyone could prefer a clown like Clarkson to Tiff or Jason.

Because he's a hell of lot funnier and entertaining.

Clarkson is funny. Tiff seems like a pompous ass.

Amen to that. 5th Gear is vastly superior to any American car show, but sucks compared to Top Gear. I just find myself really disliking the entire 5th Gear cast.

What? Tiff's ok, but Vicki Butler-Henderson, Yum! Not the hottest chick out there, but darn cute, and can drive. I just get the impression that she'd drive circles around you, throw down a few pints at the pub after, and then take you home and let you drive her around the flat for several laps.

Fifth gear is good, Top Gear is more entertaining. Both are so much better than ANY car show to come out of the US....
