Affentitten Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Likely even better when nobody is trying to shoot at you, sending you into the Channel in a blazing wreck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Well, sure. Most job are significantly better when you aren't being incinerated. Eg: Apollo astronaut: AWESOME! Apollo1 astronaut: NOT AWESOME! Hotshot Crew: AWESOME! Prescott Hotshot Crew: NOT AWESOME! Was it really necessary to clarify that point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I wonder how many times they had to film that to get exactly that result. BTW, I bet that if the course were a hundred yards longer, the Spit would have won hands down. Obviously. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stalins Organ Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Let's just fair over the 2nd seat in the spit and take out the extra weight of it.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 I wonder how many times they had to film that to get exactly that result. haha, yeah As the first paragraph reads: "It is was shameless advertising stunt for the new Range Rover Sport but it is still fun to watch the SUV go head-to-head against an iconic World War II Spitfire fighter plane." The Range Rover is meh, but I never get tired of watching Spitfires go fast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
