it makes you wonder what a trained LR offroader could do if he were really familar with the land.

but the trick with the smoke was good.

The tank team probably knew the land. But of course they had to follow him so it wouldnt be all that great.

and also being familar with the terrain response would have helped. That way you can shift alot faster. Slip it into neutral really quick and push the button. Only real problem would be getting it to raise up when he needed it. That would cost some seconds.

Smooth bore American guns, on our tanks? Not to my knowledge. Awesome video. Abrams vs. Challenger. I think the only difference would be tactics. Both are as equally matched as vehilces can get.

It's the same guy, Jeremy Clarkson. But the car is different. This is the Range Rover Sport from Land Rover. The car he put up against the Mercedes was an Overfinch Range Rover http://overfinch.com/.
