Take 'em to the bridge
Supercars aren't just glorious poster material for kids' bedroom walls. They are a prime example of man's superiority over animals. Our ability to construct objects of awesome power and exquisite design is what drives us, what inspires us, what constantly says to the dolphin: 'you may be pretty clever, but where are your opposable thumbs, smart arse?'

So, we wanted to celebrate the single greatest supercar of today, but our presenters couldn't agree what that was. Eventually, we decided to let them bring one each.

May brings the Ferrari 430, Hammond picks the Pagani Zonda, and Jeremy just has to plump for the Ford GT. Well, he has bought one. Twice.

Our celebration takes us through France until we reach another example of mankind creating splendour just for the sake of it - the epic Millau Bridge. Prepare for one of the most stunning items Top Gear has ever made. And the shock of James May driving like his brogues are on fire.

Remote control cars
Remote control cars are great. But we recently found something even more exciting - real-life remote control cars. So, we bought a pair of scruffy old barges and had them converted to be driven by a radio controller from a safe distance away.

James and Richard excitedly turn up at a disused quarry to play with their new toys and discover to their horror that they are pitted in a contest against a remote control racing champion. Who's also a 13-year-old girl. Never have May and Hammond been so scared of someone who likes McFly... apart from Jeremy.
