There was a brilliant article on Pistonheads about this a while back. The pic they chose to go with the blurb, when enlarged had the PH banner over one of the guy's faces. Cue mass of comments about how he must be a kiddy fiddler or something lol

They seem to be tryin to be uk top gear a bit too hard - the show got slated by the car companies (gm iirc) after they smashed a load of cars up playing bowling... no idea where they might have got ideas like that.....
