They've been giving away a lot of rides lately...finally to someone who deserves it.
They gave a flight to the guy from Top Gear who never has a good word to say about America or its cars...and to Lane Wallace from Flying magazine...which I still subscribe to despite her silly stories and "Here I am take a picture of me" photos.

The show James May did for his U-2 ride had nothing to do with Top Gear and the last US road trip from San Fransico to the Bonneville Salt Flats with a Corvette ZR-1, Challenger SRT8 and CTS-V they ended up loving the cars after much speculation. I think the show they did for his U-2 ride was second to none including the intro with the GTO chase car and Led Zeppelin .

Its always cool to see the amount of preparation for this sort of thing let alone when your 80 years old!
