So, just watched the kick off show for the American top gear. Great show. They featured the new line-up of cop cars from the big 3 and put them through a series of tests. I have to say the chemistry is getting better between the co-stars. No star in the car this time, but still a great show. There is a bonus to this particular show. They featured the Z06 vette that Wake Co uses. Foust beat on that car hard. You need to watch this one.

Now just a guy driving a mustang....

There are times I really miss cable. But I do like the extra $100/mo.

I thought they could have done a lot more with the cop cars. It was rather tame. The Z06 was fun to watch. Next week's episode looks like it could have more laughs with all of them driving Smart cars.

Watched this last night myself and enjoyed it, the production quality is top notch and the chemistry between the hosts is certainly improving, its never gonna be Top Gear UK, but certainly entertaining. Oh and someone needs to tell Faust that if he wants to win a race, drift less, grip more, of course that would be less entertaining to watch.

Cant say I disagree with the vette winning. but I think there were several things stacked against against the bike. Lets just say they might as well compared the mustang to the corvette.

I watched them drive big rigs, that was hysterical. Having some experience with big rigs myself, I know how clumsy they are.. I like them, I wanna make them race a 3335d vs a 335i .

Oh isnt that when they race smart cars in mud? that should be good. On another show, Wheeler dealer they have a citroen ds5 with mineral oil suspension.
Oh the thing is though that it leaks oil out of the shocks, or what ever they are on that car. smart car in deep mud as well as a funky citroen ds.
