Next week's episode sounds cool. Lots of old guys from the Caribbean like to talk about all the rallying they used to do whenever I'm at autocross and it always sounds ridiculously dangerous in the best way.

Not sure if it really belongs in this thread but the latest season of /Drive from NBC Sports was released digitally and I actually liked it more than some of the Grand Tour segments. It doesn't come across quite as scripted but the short episode time doesn't help it.

Rory had the best parts of the episode although I would have liked if they mentioned cool kei cars like the s660 as a way of showing how even with the limitations there are still fun cars. At least that's the direction I thought it was going to go. I do appreciate that at least they mentioned Best Motoring when they were at the cycle track.

DiggityDoink posted:This week's episode was pretty good, I only had to skip the star in a car spot like I do every time. Agreed. Supercars make for bad TV I think. I wish they did more side by side racing on their track, Best Motoring style.

MTOD is going to be rebroadcasting Eurosport WEC coverage this upcoming season as well as putting it on Velocity. But even then the lack of good Chromecast support makes it not really worth it for me. It's also unclear whether they'll be showing the whole races or just whatever parts Eurosport shows.

projecthalaxy posted:Rory was good why fire rory. It's even worse, he's been kept on but only for Extra Gear. The new season of /DRIVE on NBC Sports which also has Chris Harris premiered last week but nobody has NBC Sports so nobody will watch it until it's available on YouTube to rent maybe. NBC Sports also premiered some new car show called Proving Grounds which actually sounds interesting since two of the hosts are actual race drivers but again nobody will watch it.

Top Gear should import Tanner Foust. Best Motoring (the best car show) has taught me that the more race car drivers you have just driving stuff the more fun it will be.

If you're into podcasts, Chrs Harris' show is a fun listen. Mostly him and other motoring journalists talking about old times and hot car takes so its fun. https://collectingcars.com/podcasts/

We're overlooking Jethro who is like another Chris Harris except maybe not as excitable but he's a great driver and also comes from the auto magazine circuit.

Ether Frenzy posted:The Top Gear Nepal Special (and in fact, the entire season) was better than any episode of the last 3 years of Grand Tour. And I was on camera multiple times in the first ever episode of that during the opening scene... The Nepal special was definitely great. Seemed like a genuine adventure without too much staged stuff.

Latest season of Top Gear started and they did an insane thing with a Rover Metro, it was otherwise an ok episode.

opengl128 posted:So-so episode. The Dart was kind of badass. I legit cracked up and had to pause it when the back fell off the Trans Am. Looked like the rear end was held in with rebar somehow, lol. The absolute highlight of the episode.

BuckyDoneGun posted:Did anyone else notice the horrible rattles in the 220 on the top speed run though? Jesus. Like, of course a 30yo Jag rattles, but that seemed bad enough that no way am I keeping it buried for 200mph It really did sound like that thing was ready to pop as the speeds were going up. The turbo sounds though

I like the current crews thing about calling every car The <model name> like The Rivian and The Civic. Last episode was kind of by the numbers but a good time.

Hope he gets well soon. Any three wheel car is not worth the risk, even those dumb Polaris ones that tourists love.

Chris Harris has been all in on Collecting Cars for a while so he must have known that TG wasn't going to be coming back.
