JET200 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Yo After the RX-7 in the Top Gear Live show broke its engine, we were asked to provide our Nissan S13 Silvia drift car to fill in for the night. It was used in the Sat night show and driven by the legendary, world famous stunt driver Terry Grant, who is the lead driver for the show. He said it was 100 times better than the junk RX-7. Check out his website. Got to hang out with Terry and he signed the car. Also met the STIG ( yes, the real one) and went to the official staff after-party ( yes Clarkson and May were there). Was an un-believable weekend and the car stayed on display all weekend. Great exposure for Motive DVD and good to see a "real' drift car in the show!! More pics on our Motive DVD facebook page and I managed to film it with my digital camera as our normal cameras obviously aren;t allowed inside. Better than nothing though!!
