    Classic Top Gear: Stig Can Fly Higher Than A Mosquito, In A Lotus He's The Wind Beneath Our Wings

    A season or a few ago, Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson sought out what he termed a "great American car." One of the contenders to the throne was the high-po but not-quite-Shelby Roush Ford Mustang. To verify how worthwhile the modified 'stang truly was, Jezza dropped Danny McKeever into the FoMoCo driver's seat.

So who wins in the battle of the "mosquito" versus the "'merican eagle?" – Ray Wert
