I love Top Gear period. Not much of a tweed wearer, nor a ricer, but the Stig is a bad, bad man. So...the American pilot of TG includes frigging Adam Corolla as one presenter...[&o] yeah, cause the Man Show was such a big hit. *sigh*

meh, the driver drove the fast car first, therefore he knew the track a tad better for the 2nd run imo =p

Probably...naught but a handful of TG connoisseurs on the forum...so I'm preaching to the choir, here, but my bar-none favorite episode is the one visiting The Stig on holiday in Spain. Private test track. M3, RS4, and Merc C63 AMG...plus a Lotus F1 car...and an apple lol.

Not as good on youtube, but some Top Gear is better than none. BTW, it's on Mondays on BBC America.

Part 2 of 3...

the best episode of all Top Gear is the one where Clarkson and May raced Hamster to the North Pole ...hamster was on a dog sled and they were in a diesel pick up
