Test drive wasn’t as good as the ford one they did for “mr. needham” last season.

and the tunnel driving wasn’t quite as good as what they did in eastern europe:

I thought it was awesome! I thought the were going to wimp out, and offer some kind of excuse.

I don’t think the season sucks so far?? Did you see the greatest road in the world??

Yea, i have my server set up to download them automatically every week, haven’t missed one yet. I just don’t think this season can hold a candle to some of the others. Last season was insane.

Yea I expected something along those lines too. Liek how they say the Ford GT can drive upside-down if it can maintain a certain speed.

Never heard of that, I just know the old theory that F1 cars produce enough airforce to be glued to the ceiling.

I always wanted mythbusters to try and replicate that.

Either that or the scene from Driven when they drive on the city streets and lift off manholes cover as they go over them from the pressure differential.

One of the coolest ‘chase’ scenes ever in my opinion.

Yeah it’s definitely up there.

Have you guys read the TG blog on BBC?

It’s got over 600 replies after the producer made his comment.
