and what she has learned through them. Episode 6 Original airdate: November 29, 2010 The Eye of the Needle: This annual challenge will take place in a right-hand-drive Nissan 300ZX for this season, to test the theory that drivers in the past were more likely to hit arches on the passenger side (in past seasons, on the left-hand side) as opposed to the driver side. Dale is quickly confused by the right-hand drive car and hits every single arch on the passenger side at below the minimum speed of 50 km/h. Contestants only have one attempt at speed, so Dale is permitted another run, in which she hits all the arches on the passenger side again and fails. Lance also fails the challenge after clipping the first and fourth arches on the passenger side and the last on the driver side. Donna's anxiety makes Brad nervous during his run and he hits an arch every time she screams (which she does twice), once on each side of the car. On Jamie's run, she hits the third arch so off-centre (to the passenger side) and at such high speed that the windshield nearly shatters (up to that point, the show's crew had never even considered this possible). Because Jamie had seriously damaged the right-hand drive vehicle, Dean will get to do his run in a left-hand drive Suzuki Swift. He goes flawlessly at 40 km/h, prompting him to try for an 80 km/h run (Andrew's directions had been to drive at the fastest speed that he felt comfortable). He passes easily, much to Brian's surprise. Best Performer: Dean is the only person who passed this challenge. Worst Performer: While nobody else passes, Jamie is declared the worst for shattering the windshield during her turn. The Cross: Though the show had tried to avoid using vintage cars for challenges this year, they are forced to use their 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo—previously used as Andrew's car in the Lane Change Rally in the previous episode—in this challenge, first introduced in the third season due to running out of cars from the 1980s and 1990s (so far, four stick-shift cars have burnt clutches, the Plymouth Reliant "K-car" station wagon used in Episode 4's Water-Tank Challenge is flooded and many other vehicles have gotten extensively damaged or stuck). Lance quickly scratches the car's doors in his run. Jamie also has trouble, further scratching one side.
