Also, I know this is possibly a silly question - but what happens if they never actually run it on the Top Gear track? I know that does happen, as the GTR vs. Train episode is obviously filmed in Japan so its almost definitely not going to be that episode, and the Veyron has appeared in Top Gear a couple of times but was never run on the test track. |
If it's going to happen, it will almost certainly be that episode, although probably with a different car. That is the tradition - do a piece about the car and then finish off with the lap. You're right about the Veyron but I seem to remember that Bugatti refused to let TG take it round the track. I would guess that Nissan will be desperate for the GT-R to post a time. I wouldn't be surprised if the 2010 order book filled up the next day. Of course, then Nissan will change all 2010 deliveries to a lottery!
Speaking of which, if the Stig doesn't drive the GT-R round the track then we could make this a lottery too! How appropriate would that be?
