    After seeing Top Gear UK boys hitting the streets of Reno in a Cadillac CTS-V, Dodge Challenger SRT8 and Corvette ZR1, we now know where they were headed — the Bonneville Salt Flats. This mess of pictures pretty much confirm that TGUK will be pushing the cars to their terminal velocity while making quips about Mormons and polygamy — and all while — umm — wearing baseball caps? Sure, whatever floats their British boats. It also looks like James May has taken a liking to a polished-up Shelby Cobra that was at the flats as well. We don't know if that'll sneak into the segment or if he's just geeking out, but Carroll Shelby will probably be suing his ass anyway.
