I was thinking it might've been fifth gear, but I couldn't remember. Are you talking about the Top Gear episode where the Jag races the other cars? If so, that's not it. This thing raced a plane -- and won, if I recall. It was years ago. Other than that, thanks for making the rest of my point.

They used that Jag in a lot of episodes. I think they finally crashed it off an aircraft carrier with the old Stig (black suit) at the wheel.

Had some guy in a base model caliber, with 5 people in it, follow me for about 5 miles, from the taco bell I was at, all the way to my development, beeping his horn behind me, yelling out his window "wanna race?" Was getting really pissed by the time I got home, that annoys the hell out of me. Sorry buddy, I don't street race.

I don't know if this has happened to anyone.

I went into a Mitsu Dealership getting my first test drive. The guy went on on about s-sport mode.

Dealer: "It has 3 modes Normal, Sport, S-Sport"
Me: "That great can we take it out of a ride?"
Dealer: "Sure i'll show you'll love it."

We get in the car he start playing with the different moods for a good 2 minutes and then says.

Dealer: "Well I guess this one doesn't have that"
Me: *thinking* Why don't dealers know as much as the rest of us?

"you need to put nitrous on it"

"nah, it's turbo - you just do supporting mods and turn up the boost, no need for nitrous"

"eh... everything is faster with nitrous"
