The Grand Tour S2E09 |
It all begins with Jeremy Clarkson revisiting the unsung supercars of the early 90's; the Bugatti EB110 Super Sport and the Jaguar XJ220. Both of these cars emerged from the last decade of the 20th century when stock prices plummeted and as of now, there only a handful of cars that are faster than these old-timers, still, no modern supercar is as fast as these. Anyway, when handed to the unnamed driver, the EB110 did it in a shocking 1:32.8 wet lap time while the Jag did it in 1:35.1.
Meanwhile, the boys are trying to break the amphibious speed record by making an amphibious car made out of an old Suzuki Jimny, a boat, and a massive jet engine. The first attempt didn't work because despite the jet engine, it's still a tad slow, so for the next attempt, they've used a Bond Bug as the basis for their new amphibious vehicle capable of beating an amphibious speed record. When arrived to the very venue for that moment, because Clarkson possesses a racing boat license, he is the only one to try it even though he doesn't want to. In the end, they broke the British's amphibious speed record with 47.81mph!
In this week's Celebrity Face Off, magicians Dynamo and Penn and Teller are battling out who is the fastest. Magic show included. Anyway, due to the snowy conditions, the track's gone white, making it a hard time to determine which is which so when the weather's improving, the lap times commenced and when done, Dynamo did it in 1:39.3 while the duo did it in 1:33.8.
