Fifth Gear: Tiff And Jonny At 50th NASCAR Daytona 500

Posted March 10th, 2008 at 23:23 GMT by Viper007Bond in Fifth Gear
The Scene was a little late, but they finally got their rip out.
This week, Tiff and Jonny go behind the scenes at the NASCAR Daytona 500, Vicki heads to Anglesey for another shoot-out, Tom drives the new Citroën C5 in Lisbon and Jason meets skier Chemmy Alcott, who tries out a Group N rally car.
Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the NASCAR Daytona 500 is one of the world’s truly great races – and Fifth Gear is lucky enough to have been granted privileged behind-the-scenes access to this American phenomenon throughout the race weekend. While Tiff Needell gets behind the wheel of one of the 200mph race cars, Jonny Smith talks to some of the fans, team owners and competitors – including ex-Formula One driver Juan Pablo Montoya – ahead of the big event.
The episode is now available.
EDIT: Whoops, post title changed. Tiff will be in a stock car next week, not this week.
