I couldn't have agreed with May more. Momentum driving is awesome fun in slow cars - carry as much speed through corners to save from trying to accelerate.

Data Graham posted:This way it's just "okay let's watch an indistinguishable lap being driven by someone we don't even know, all right now let's go inside and see who it is". Sometimes they're a bit rough with the blending from feauture > star-car segment. It's like they just cut their "challenge" and spliced in the star-car part like no one would notice the abrupt halt to the challenge. As you said, it would be a lot better with the interview first. TGUK is good for having a bit of a "we'll pick this up a bit later, but first a star..." spot while IN the studio, so it feels a bit more natural than randomly appearing at the side of the track with the "celebrity".

Maybe they'll use the time to take a month long adventure in Yugos to cross the former USSR. (they've been just about everywhere else).

Also, make it a two part special. First hour is broken into two equal halves - the half is the UK team's vehicle selection, purchase, and subsequent build. The other half would be the US team's shot. Of course for viewing purposes they'd be intertwined during editing. I just want equal time for each side to show some of the tom foolery involved in process. The second special would be the race. Simple and beautiful.

I scrolled through those and thought, "Clarkson, May, and Hammond" in that order for your first three pics. It's like the three bears; large, medium, and retarded.

Think of the last Suzuki Swift/Aveo. Those were absolute pieces of poo poo cars. Same characteristics of gutless and shockingly poo poo on the highway. In winter, I was having the rear end end step out when going under overpasses on the highway. The wind would hit the side of the car and it would start dancing in an rear end pucker moment. The Miata was a way better winter car.

davebo posted:I'm gonna say that while the original will always be best, in terms of loudest laugh I'd say that for me the mustang flying was second only to the first time Clarkson crashed the Robin. And even that was pretty close. One of my favourite moments was the Clarkson "mobile home/tower". When they showed May's goose-laugh reaction to the swaying, I was in tears.

KozmoNaut posted:Change that one to "Drink whenever Brewer is an insufferable cockney oval office" and you'll be hammered within seconds. Let's swap Edd from Wheelers with Hamster from TopGear. TopGear challenges would be hilariously one-sided adventures of James and Jeremy trying to ruin Edd's poo poo (because it's good) rather than loving with Hammond because he's Hammond.

James May, can you provide a constant narration of my life directly streamed into my head? It'd certainly make a day of mundane tasks seem a whole world more interesting.

Viggen posted:It's either one owned by uf, or sockington. We can get the play-by-play here at least 4 months sooner.. My wife's old 2004 Focus. I swear I replaced more on that piece of poo poo than any other car I've owned. It went through an offroad rally at the hands of my wife. She left the road at 140km/h, slid down an angled berm on the outside of the corner, got airborne off the driveway which sloped up the other way, and then flew rear end backwards into a collection of small trees and brush.   $9,000 later and insurance had it back on the road. But if course, that happened about a month after we got it back from this $7,000 body job from someone running a red light and smacking me on the passenger front wheel.   So that Focus never felt "right" again until I put the nail in the coffin one last time.  The airbags had never once deployed in this checkered history. Still got $5500 from insurance for it in 2011.

I wish the GT86 was made the new SIARPC. It'd make laps a whole lot more entertaining. Edit: Suppose it would be "moderately priced" by comparison of the Kia.

nutnmunch posted:To be honest, Adam Carolla isn't funny at all to me. Everyone always brings up his name, but I honestly don't understand how he'd fit at all. I mean, that other car show was pretty awful. Didn't he have full control over it? One could argue the "Top Gear" name has weight when it comes to gaining initial viewership. Also, he would be PART of the writing team so it wouldn't be such an echo chamber of so-so ideas. Think if Hammond did all the writing for TG.

CannonFodder posted:I'm just amazed Rutledge found an International Scout II. Sure, most if not all of the drivetrain was switched out, but for radical offroaders that's not rare. The fact that the body and frame was not a pile of rust is the impressive part. Our resident Scout expert stated earlier in the thread that he suspected the body was a reproduction tub instead of the original steel body.
