Did anyone catch the two episodes of Top Gear last night on BBC America? One was from 2006 and the other was 2007 of which I had seen neither. They were also advertising that there was going to be an all new episode next Monday night as well. Good news!
In addition to that, James May from Top Gear now has a new show with a well know British wine critic. I guess the premise of the show is that James tries to teach him about cars, and the other guy tries to teach James about wine. Great combination, wine and cars. Anyway, they were at our vineyard in Monterey last week filming an episode. I guess the finale was them drag racing a Camaro SS vs. a Chevelle (sp?) SS on a runway that is in the middle of the vineyard. I kept hearing talk about the BBC filming a show there, but had no idea that's what it was about until I saw the pictures yesterday. Man was I pissed! I would have gone down and checked it out. Anyway, I'll try and get some of the pictures to post.
