damn I didnt know someone else was a fan of Top Gear.
We dont get it in the US :disgust:

Anyway good to see Tiff working there still.. any way I can get to see the video's of all current episodes on the web. TG site doesnt have that .. and I hate the new site looks.

EDIT:

TOP GEAR RULEZ!

Kudos to Jeremy Clarkson, Quentin Wilson and Tiff Neddle and VBH

Watch the video and say with me "Phooey Car and Driver, Top Gear Rules"

I subscribe to the magazine and get every issue at home. The nice part is that before I get to read it my brothers grabs it and his coworkers grab it.. so when I get it everyone has read the magazine expect me.

Arrgh!!!!

Oh well.. at least they dont make dog ears to it.

Oh my sweet lord...I just watched the McLaren F1 test drive... that thing is truly God's car. I watched the Lamborghini clip too - god I love those cars too.... I want em all! But man, the expression on his face when he floored the F1 was priceless!!!

yup I agree.
Tiff is a former F1 driver and probably one of the more refined drivers. Jeremy Clarkson brought cult to british television, when he was asked to join Top Gear. Ever since his first segment he has taken teh world by storm. Infact I have all his books with me. Jeremy Clarkson is also god, he went to Iceland and drove up a vertical cliff on a 900HP modded jeep. You should have seen his face.

I am serious, TopGear is a much better version of any car show I have ever seen. Too bad the US TV system doesnt like competition. I have been lobbying ABC for bring topgear for a while. Since they are bringing every other tv show from UK here. It will give TNN/CBS a run for its money.

Heck, it might outperform the Porsche, but this car looks like sh*t. Honestly - like sh*t. Absolutely nothing interesting about it.
