So, every morning coming to work I go around a really tight, corner on an industrial road. I absolutely love that corner and actually look forward to hitting it every day. Well, today hitting the corner at about 70 I found myself talking to myself.

"Entering corner, begin turn, lift throttle, get back end out, punch it and let the all wheel drive take over....woaahhhh, and exit"

After exiting corner with a huge smile on my face, I realized I was talking with a british accent!

Yikes!!!! :)

God I love this car!Â* Â* 8)

ball rd onramp for the 57 in anaheim, it is a full 360 degree turn & have done it @ 100

Its funny that you mention this Demetry, I was going home and hit the 73 south to 55 south ramp at about that same speed and was thinking to myself (I seem to do that alot) how fast was the fasted anyone has ever hit this on ramp at, and then I hit the bump near the merge and almost soiled myself!

Maybe I should slow down?...... :-o

i love top gear!!! they are gonna try and jave a u.s version which we all know would suck.First they were trying to get leno he said no, and now it is supposed to be adam corolla.i hate that guy i didnt even know he was a car guy.And how could you host that caliber of a show with a last name being COROLLA! haha.

01-12-2009, 04:41 PM
I hear you...I'm not a big fan of adam corolla but the other host is Tanner Foust and he's actually not too bad. Over acts while on camera a bit but in real life he seems ok.

Adam Corolla is fucking funny, dude. He was great on The Man Show and that other show on the Discovery Channel. He is a car guy. I don't think anyone can replicate the original Top Gear. Have you watched Top Gear Australia? Lol, "Rubbish!"

did you guys see the Vietnam episode? Â*Those guys are crazy!


That episode was HILARIOUS. Â*The stuff they bought each other was classic. Â*the huge model boat, the HEAVY stone statue, ridiculously large artwork. Â*

you guys should check out some of clarkson's old stuff. Â*he has the best commentary every when it comes to cars.

NBC decided not to take the show sense its other car show "Knight Rider" did extremely bad and are afraid that Top Gear will suffer as well. It's up for sell but I heard BBC America has taken it back. So now only time will tell what will happen. They just recently open an office in NYC and were looking for interns a while back.

Adam Corrola, Tanner, and Stromer did an excellent job at the 1st show. There are a few reviews on internet over the show and 8 of 10 loved it. So far Adam has no clue as of what is to happen to the show now and doesn’t know if he will still be hosting it now sense BBC has TG: America on its hands.
But some say that it will be hosted on Cable and that being it, TG America will be commercial free and can do and say whatever they wish to say.

Yeah, getting tired of the re-runs on BBC America.
I thought Tanner was good in that show Supercars Exposed. I liked the one where he took out the Mercedes to a drag strip with the firing hot blonde. That was a good one.

When you see your car at times do you ever say *with the best English accent you can muster up* .... "This is the MITSUBISHI Lancer Evolution" :D

I just did it yesterday when I was leaving Petsmart...and then realized "Fk I just said that REALLY loud!" Idiot! :buck2:

There is a new season NOW!

Did you guys see the Prius Vs. The M3?
That shit was really funny.
They had an M3 follow a Prius on the track. The Prius ran full throttle and the M3 just had to keep up. Then, in the end, the E92 M3 got better gas mileage. LOL.
I HATE people in priuses. They drive worse than G35 owners and think they are getting great mileage at 90mph in the carpool lane, or 55 in the fast lane.

09-02-2009, 05:05 PM
yeah the only chick he respects is the girl that does the m5 rides around the ring.... in germany. Â*i really think that would work out on the show. Â*she would be the fastest on the show beside the Stig.... lol
