Koenigsegg CCX takes Top Gear's top spot

The Koenigsegg CCX posted a new record lap time this past Sunday on Britain's Top Gear TV show. The car is now the fasted vehicle ever piloted around the track, displacing the Zonda F. The record was set during show's second test of the car. The first test -- a few weeks prior -- resulted in "The Stig" losing control of the CCX and crashing off Top Gear's famous test track. The car's unpredictable handling was attributed to the lack of a rear wing, which is generally standard equipment on any supercar. Koenigsegg fitted the CCX with a wing, and the results were much better. Video and pictures after the jump...
