Goddamnit. They drove through Central PA? Missed it. It was my chance to make an ass of myself for a split second to the 4628291917 people that download the show worldwide.

I live about 30 minutes away. I would have loved to hit up some back roads with the Brits.

they had to make up for "nascar is rubish"

On a side note, I would just love to see Clarkson actually get into competetive drifting.

Man, Stewart Little came real close to stuffing that Porsche into a tire wall. That episode had me just about rolling on the floor with laughter, something that has yet to occur with the USA version. The kids came in wondering what I was so tickled with and gave me funny, curious looks.

What if Top Gear UK hooked up with Top Gear US for a showdown like they did with the German car show? I would watch that

Thanks for entertaining me as I layed on the couch, feeling too crappy to relocate to my bed for actual sleep.

The middle east x-mas special was on a few hours ago over there, now waiting for that to show up

I just saw it on Youtube (although I can't find it now, they must have already taken it down.) Something of a surprise ending.

Just got done watching the torrent for the Christmas special. Loved it. You could indeed call it a surprise ending.

man, that's my favorite track they were on, I was properly surprised at how nice they were to NASCAR and the history behind it, too

and Richard has no idea just how close he was to writing off the back half of that car. an Audi R8 went off in a similar manner through the Climbing Esses and stuffed it backwards into that tire wall and likely totaled the car.

"3 wise men" is now up on street fire, and GRM aproves of Clarksons car...
