Just saw Smoking Tire. Well Done!
And saw trailer for Top Gear USA. Just freakin' awful. they totally missed the point.

If you're talking about the bootlegger challenge clip, yeah that was awful.

There is a new trailer out with the trio flogging some Lambos that shows promise.

I think the jury is still out and is gonna be until after the first season wraps up.

Not bad. But I still think they missed the mark with the hosts. Not trying to be "ageist" but I would like to see someone who looks like they have had a drivers license for more than 5 years.

One of the many things I like about the original version, the hosts have some perspective

Yeah, I am just a little older than those guys, but I totally agree that they need older guys to host. Not better looking guys, just older and with more character...

We can't seem to be true to anything anymore be it quality, politics, or ouyr society. Fix the nose, pump up the boobs, lift the butt, get a removable nose, butt plants, cock extensions, beef curtain trimmings, and then M.J. ends up dead in a puddle of his own purple colored, violet smelling urine.

I didn't say they were cute. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

They are however capable of getting away with crap that others wouldn't touch, which is why they could succeed.
