Prior to England’s 2009 Six Nations defeat to Wales, they had a chance to take on a different challenge. Part of their week involved a drive around the Landrover Terrapod where the players pitted their driving wits against each other.
This video featuring stars such as Martin Johnson, James Haskell, and Delon Armitage - shows them behind the wheel.

England welcome Italy to Twickenham on Saturday as Martin Johnson’s charges attempts to kick-off their RBS Six Nations challenge with a much-needed win.
Three crushing defeats in autumn have seen plenty of questions asked about the quality of the current England crop, however the new regime have the perfect chance to put things right against the Azzurri.
England have beaten Italy in all nine of the previous Six Nations meeting between the sides, and remain strong favourites to make it 10 in a row on Saturday.
However the previous two Six Nations meetings between England and Italy have highlighted that the gap in quality between the sides is closer than ever.
An edgy 20-7 win at Twickenham in 2007 was followed up with an even less convincing 23-19 success at the Stadio Flaminio last time out.
Both teams have been forced to reshuffle their side ahead of Saturday’s showdown - Danny Cipriani’s exclusion from the squad the most notable talking point for England.
Torrid
The Wasps fly-half endured a torrid time in the autumn internationals and Johnson has opted for experience ahead of exuberance by selecting Andy Goode at No.10.
Goode will team up with former Leicester Tigers team-mate Harry Ellis - Danny Care’s ankle injury forcing a change in personnel at scrum-half.
Elsewhere in the back-line, Mike Tindall returns to the scene where he perforated his liver against Wales, and the Gloucester centre will be hoping for happier times at Twickenham on Saturday.
Wing Mark Cueto is also back in the white jersey after a string of impressive performances for Sale have seen him top the Guinness Premiership try-scoring charts.
London Irish star Delon Armitage starts at full-back for England and he and brother Steffon, who will make his debut at No.7, will become the first brothers to start for the national side since Rory and Tony Underwood in 1995.
Dominant
Andrew Sheridan, Lee Mears and Phil Vickery form what on paper looks a formidable front row, and with Steve Borthwick and Nick Kennedy behind them England will be hoping for dominant displays in both scrum and line-out.
Italy head coach Nick Mallet has been forced to move flanker Mauro Bergamasco into the scrum-half position after Simone Piccone and Pietro Travagli were been ruled out of the entire tournament and Pablo Canavosio failed to recover from injury.
Mallett has also called Martin Castrogiovanni back into the side after a 12-month absence, while Toulouse-born Jean-Francois Montauriol will make his debut off the bench.
The Azzurri will be led by effervescent captain Sergio Parisse and he will need to be at his dominant best in the pack if the visitors have any chance of a shock success.

Sorry about the music, technical difficuilty lol but here are the reasons why I chose them:1. Strong and amazing in the scrums2. One of the only players who left the autumn internationals with credit to England.3. Is performing better than most english props atm EG Vickery4. Great Lineout jumper5. Despite never being capped, is very strong and a good leader6. (Captain) Can compete with southern hemisphere flankers.7. Finally back on form and could be a possible captain.8. Has fought very hard for his spot and has played well for his club9. Has had brilliant games in the internationals and europeon cup games10. Sensational club player and deserves to go to the next level partly because of his drop goals 11. In my opinion, currently the best back for his club12. Can always find gaps and breaks and always has a good game13. Sensational in the Autumn internationals which most players in the squad for the Autumn internationals can’t say14. So quick, can out run all blacks, and is a try scoring machine.15. Is a rising rugby superstar and performing well for his club.

Highlights of the 2007 Six Nations (from the original creator).
Note: Apologies all, my account was suspended for the World Cup montage. Dissapointing as this video had over 600,000 views unbelievably and was rated in the top 70 sports videos on youtube UK, with the World Cup one following a similar path. What can you do though? Kudos to BBC for allowing this. Anyway, look out for many highlight reels similar to this through 2009 including the Six Nations, Tri-Nations, Lions tour and others. 
Good luck to your team in ‘09!
