For the French readers.

Turbo will show a brief test of the RS6 vs the new E55 AMG 476hp tomorrow Sunday at 11:35am.

The program will also include a test of the Viper SRT 10 500hp.

PS : Turbo is the equivalent of Top Gear.

They normally post a streaming version of the main tests after the week-end. If it's available, I'll post the link here.
In case you have access through Satellite to French channels, it's on the channel "M6" at 11:35am Paris time or 10:35am London Time.

My pleasure [img]images/graemlins/1syellow1.gif[/img]

You may also love this one for the Lamborghini Murcielago, the ultimate 4WD/Quattro sports car (V12 6.2L, 580hp, 0-100kmh/0-60mph in 3.6sec), and a great sountrack from Pink Floyd :

Hint : go for the Real Player large format, because the Windows Media Player really sucks in comparison.
Blah...

To continue the pleasure,
- Breyton BMW 3 528hp, which by the way has the Magic Racing wheels and Yokohama AVS I mentionned in a previous post, brief but nasty nasty nasty sound :

And the best for the end,
- The Ferrari 360 F1 Modena (nice factory shots, some good slides, great overtakings on a free road and isn't that Mr Schumacher appearing briefly at the wheel ?)

Rock on, baby !

FYI, there seems to be an outage at Akamai.com (who hosts the videos above, and some other services we use) since last night. [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
