Arthur Darvill and a DeLoreanAs part of BBC America’s Rate My Ride contest for Top Gear, somebody submitted a photo of his DeLorean… with Arthur Darvill.
What is happening. I have too many feelings.
@jcrclarksonesq Last night, over some wine, James May and I agreed to work on a project together. This morning, I can’t remember what it was.

We’ve just received the sad news that today - 11 May 2012 - Carroll Shelby has passed away at the age of 89 after being hospitalized for pneumonia.
He was the mastermind behind the AC Cobra, the Dodge Viper (with Bob Lutz), and influential in the development of the Ford GT40.
In tribute to one of the undisputed kings of American muscle cars, here is our story from Top Gear magazine published only one month ago, dedicated to a true automotive legend.
No really for real this time. via TopGear.com:
Someone has built a real radio-controlled Transformer. And Great Odin’s beard, it’s impressive.
This is the modeler’s eighth attempt at putting together an RC Autobot, and he seems to have refined the recipe: 22 servo motors allow it to change from car to buxom robot, do a bit of a dance, throw a punch and waddle like a befuddled penguin.
So, who wants one?
The Ferrari FXX was once the fastest car to (illegally) lap our test track. The Ferdinand Ferdinand GT3 RS is the slowest car to lap our test track. So what happens if the two engage in a bit of cross-fertilisation? Well, this… The Fahrradi Farfall FFX.
It may look like Ferrari’s V12, Enzo-based hypercar, but it’s actually a bicycle cocooned with some well-placed tin foil. It’s the idea of Austrian bicyclist, Hannes Langeder, the very man who built the lightest of lightweight GT3 RS that Hammond cycled around our test track.
This one took him a year to build and has notable improvements, such as gullwing doors that flap when the car/bike is being pedaled. Langeder believes that it’s actually possible for the FFX to “lift off slightly from the ground”. Yes, you read that right. This car has the potential to fly.
James May’s useful phrases: German.
