Icon3 Type R's on Top Gear!? (sorry if repost)

Flipping the channels last night and caught an episode of Top Gear on BBCAM, which I usually don't watch.

Three hosts(?) were each driving a new super car, the only one I remember was the Dodge Viper which had the most HP and torque.

After crusing around and chasing each other they ended up at a drag strip in England somewhere. Each super car got creamed by various opponents, as they apparently didn't know their cars (or drag racing) very well.

Then, for a few seconds they showed a PY 'R lining up against a Ford Mustang which was painted like a police car!! It cut away before the run, though.

Also in the background was a CW Type R cruising around.

Oddly, the sites of those two caRs was the best part of the episode!

I saw that episode their super cars got smoked on the quarter mile. I don't think that was a yellow ITR at least I hope not it was pretty riced out. Also saw the CW in the frame .
