That Venom is going to be absolutely useless.

Glad to see there are a lot of F class cars, leaves lots of room for upgrades. Stick a GT40 engine in that Ford Transit!

Now we need an expansion pack that allows us to do this

So is anyone going to organise a Cortina spec? Maybe something with the RS1800 and Elan? Cause I want in on that.

e: something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWp-0TuY4Sk
(Is there a good Galaxy stand in? Maybe the Thunderbolt? Maybe a stripped out new Mini to stand in for original Minis?)

I want to race this in Forza now. It looks like a blast.

Forza must be training me well, because I could see that rollover happening at the 1:00 mark well before it actually happened.

The venom might well be very good in r2 875.

wolrah: May 8, 2006; what?

Having just watched the relevant Top Gear episode, I'm thinking a race made up of Transits and appropriately detuned/restricted XFRs (closest we can get to the diesel S-Type) on the Nurburgring would be worth a shot. Now that I'm thinking about it though, I'd put a good bet on the Transit on the 'Ring being the new traffic challenge, and holy poo poo will that suck.

Honestly thats the car I give least shits about in this pack, I would have rather had a real racecar.

I'm still kind of on the fence about this pack. Do I really want it? It feels like I can just skip it, or at the very least wait until it goes down in price. With the Porsche pack coming out the same month too, that makes it even harder to justify. It's only $7* though. :X

*really it's $10 because the only way you can get it is by buying 800 points.

You can just go to Gamestop and get a code for $7. It's how I get DLC without giving Microsoft a credit card number.

Plus Steven Tyler recently bought one, which immediately puts it in the "Seriously Uncool" category.

John needed to pay the pool boy so he sold them to another customer. New wheels are on order for next week once our credit clears, promise. No need to come and visit to check. It'll all be fine. If there's delays, well, that's what happens sometimes when you get a TRUE custom product. We're still the best in the business and have many happy customers so get off our backs, jeeze.

The real 2012 apocalypse will occur when Tyler crashes his Venom GT and dies, and everyone else on earth is driven insane by thousands of classic rock stations playing the same four Aerosmith songs non-stop in tribute for weeks afterward.

The world will not end with a bang or a whimper, but with a YAKYAKYAKYAKYAK-YOWWWWWW!!!

God, Aerosmith is such a horrible band. At least Tyler didn't buy a real car to crash into something.

I have to admit, I'm actually a bit disappointed that the Top Gear pack didn't include a Lacetti to round out the Reasonably Priced collection.

The game can't render nearly enough smoke for that to be realistic, unfortunately.

I am more disappointed in the lack of a Reliant Robin. I have been hoping for one since the Top Gear partnership was announced.

If we're putting in top gear electric cars in, at least put in the one they got right:

Too many batteries in it to fit a driver, and even if you could, it'd probably be too dangerous!

Hopefully the Hammerhead would have realistic "back end sags the more you drive it" physics.

Nice racing with you guys. Unfortunately had to go check some auctions and couldn't rejoin due to "network error" or whatever. I've got another day of free Live Gold left. Maybe should buy the 3 month pack...
