Lewis Hamilton + Letterman drive E63S Wagon on track

I pulled up to my local bike shop and the manager comes out saying: "whoa, I didn't know this was your car!" (bike rack gave it away). He was gushing and told me about the David Letterman episode with Lewis Hamilton driving the E63S wagon on the track... as I hadn't seen it I came home to watch. Not a lot of time spent in the car, but LH gets the brakes smoking, so you know he drove it hard! I did a quick scan in the forums here and didn't see it posted. This is a year old, and only the preview is available on YT, but the full episode on Netflix is actually pretty good. The driving part is at the end, of course.
