Not Really, Travis; Never Watched It!:-):-)

Well I went and DLed a few episodes. Some season 12 and some season 10.
I could not figurre out a quick way to only grab Vietnam, Boats, etc, but as
luck would have it, I DID get the boatcar episode. I understand where you
guys get the enthusiasm. This show is cool. I have watched snatches of the
boats and ALL of the episode where they get the three snazzy proto cars and
go off looking for the perfect driving road. Which they find in italy finally.
In the end, the 'sad sack' one of the three guys ends up buck naked in the
cockpit pouring bottled water on himself cause he either doesn't have AC in
the Aston Martin he's driving, or it has never worked. (others are in a Orange
Lambo and a Green Porsche.)

Good stuff! I made a conscious decision not to look up episodes because I enjoy watching with my gf every night.

I am not a big car buff however it works on so many levels.

Wonder which one is on tonight?

The last episode for this season (in hd) was awesome!!!! OK actually Top Gear in HD is awesome...

Brad for good info on Top Gear go to Finalgear.com but don't bother with Fifth Gear..it was a spin off after one of the original guys from Top Gear was "Let Go"

Travis, my gf watches a few episodes with me because, well only because she like the british accent, but one night asked me "What's that cute car he is driving." I looked over and smiled to say "Porsche 911 GT" will you buy me one? Well I am sure you know where this conversation ended..yup at the price haha

Appears the BBC has lost an injunction to protect the identity of The Stig for a second time.

Wonder how they will handle it?

They'll probably kill off White Stig and bring back Black stig, the filmed that a year or two ago around the first challenge so that'll probably be the route.

I think the whole thing is orchestrated. Bad or contentious press is better than no press. Top Gear is one of the most popular shows in the world, so it is inevitable there will be gossip in Britain.

Everyone knows who the Stig is, but it really does not matter.

Except to the guy trying to sell his memoir that's claiming to be the Stig, to him it's priceless advertising. I'm just amazed that the Stig is a NASCAR driver :-)
[Reply]

Geez, I thought they had Sterling Moss filling in as the Stig.

Tonight they are racing across Japan!

Do love that show. Have every episode and watch at least one every week.

Strange thing, i have no passion for cars at all.

GTR in that right? Badass!
[Reply]

Yes you are right, nitrogen in the tires. It was so funny watching the other two guys go from train to train and then the suitcase bikes off the ferry. Such a good show.

was a good episode that one. I'm a fan of all the epic races. The truffel race was a good one, too.

New American Top Gear starts Nov 21 on History channel. I don't know if it looks as good though. We shall see. This is the second set of cast in the last couple years. 2 years ago they tried this but scrapped it in a couple of shows.

Love the show!! I too am in fear of the American version. We just do not have the same type of humor as the Brits. I hope I am wrong and it is as good. Love the episode where they drive the 3 wheel car and it is rolling over at every corner and passersby roll it back over!!

[Reply]
