Everywhere you look, we're slowing down. With Concorde in a museui air travel is slower. And even the fighter jets of today would be smashed by the interceptors from the sixties. But hat about cars? I decided to find out whether today's cream can blast the monsters from the power crazed eighties. Are the new breed quicker in a straight line? Do they comer faster? Which are better looking and which make the best noises? That means ttte 200 mile per hour Jaguar XJ220 taking on a Pagani Zonda. It means pitting a Mercedes McLaren SLR against a Porsche Camera GT - the first time ever these cars have been brought together. And it means lining up the new Ford GT with the car that spawned it-the old GT40. It means epic head to head drag races. Naturally, the new Aston Martin DB9 is here too, taking on the old warhorses, the V8 Vantages. And the Evo 8? How much faster is it than the Evo 1? The answer might surprise you. Oh and of course, I just had to riddle a Nissan with machine gun fire as I take up the new and dangerous sport of "Clay Car Shooting". Why? Why not!
