I cannot believe that the STi beat the EVO X around the track...and that was against the loaded FQ360. I was totally expecting them to say that the EVO won and never mention that. I figured that when the EVO crushed the STi, they would say that it would be unfair to compare the two unless the STi S205 was out.
Still watching the rest now!

Thought they used the non-FQ360 model with the 5sp to lap the track against the STI? Might have to rewatch it again

Na, the FQ had the 5 speed, the non-FQ had a 6 speed.
They normally lap the car that they drive in the entire comparison.

The Stig drove the regular Evo X (Not the FQ 360). They said that at the beginning of the EVO's lap. They acutally said it was to keep it fair.

You’ve got to follow the link and download the torrent… full episodes of Top Gear and Fifth Gear are available.
Man, this season is turning out to be one of my favorites. I like the new style of photography, music selections, and how the vehicles are presented. And I think next week will also be a GT-R episode again. This Sunday was great.

yeah, I also noticed the new filming styles...
the running "i was on the internet and I found THIS!" gag is getting a little old after 4 episodes... I wish they'd show the picture (but I'm sure that wouldn't be allowed on TV)... I'd find it more amusing from a "watching this on a TV" standpoint. oh yeah, and I said TV. I went and bought an S-Video cable so I could plug my laptop into the TV and watch this season on my couch... I'm surprised at how good the quality is when you blow it up that much.

I wish they would still release the HD versions
I was very disappointed with the bullet train episode though.

Something crazy...1:14? i forget. It was ridiculous though.
Aside from the fires and the ridiculous lowspeed understeer, I'd have one of those in a heartbeat.
