I love this show, so glad they’re showing it here. Should be a good one. The main event is a high speed train vs. aston martin :tup:

here’s their lineup, from the BBC.

> **Jeremy Clarkson**

> Jeremy’s irreverent style turned the motoring industry on its head when he first appeared on Top Gear and now he’s set to do it all over again with this series.

> A few things have changed over the years. The hair’s a bit thinner, the cowboy boots have gone and the Ferrari has been replaced by a Mercedes. Thankfully, though, JC is still more than capable of reducing car manufacturers to floods of tears with nothing more than a long pause and a few well considered words.

> **James May**

> James has been writing for car magazines - including Top Gear - for many years. Over that time he’s developed a keen interest in cars that are either very posh or very basic.

> He admits that he’s not so good on the stuff in between and, as a bachelor, is ‘very poorly placed’ to comment on family motoring. ‘Jeremy can do that,’ he says. ‘He’s got a wife, hundreds of children, and a dog.’ He also likes motorbikes.

> **Richard Hammond**

> Richard, like so many before him, launched his TV career at Britain’s premier breeding-ground for fresh talent: Radio Cumbria.

> He eventually landed his dream job as a TV presenter on a motoring show but, alas, the show was on cable TV where the cameramen regularly outnumbered the viewers. We thought it daft to waste all that genuine petrolhead enthusiasm, so we gave him a job on proper telly.

“thought it daft” :lol: That shit with the used Bentley was absolutely hilarious, because I’ve looked at those ads too and thought, “hell, a '68 MkII jaguar saloon for $21k, I can afford that, right…?”

I like catching clips of it, its just very hit or miss with how they treat American cars. They love the Monaro (/GTO - not that its American per say, but our motor, tranny, and company), and the GT40, but bagged on the C6 vette terribly, when I think its only fault is its steering wheel. They couldnt drag race it either. Otherwise they do put on a funny show, and they beat the hell out of the cars.

Best quote ever was something like:  
“Its a triumph of torque over intelligence”
