OK! Some of you may know what the picture in my Avitar is from and some not. It is from one of my new favorite TV shows. It is Top Gear, and it is on of all places BBC America. I am a bit of a gear head, and I love this show. If you have never seen it, do your self a favor and get on and watch some of the tons of clips on youtube. (http://www.youtube.com/user/TopGear) It is sort of Car and Driver with humor and challenges thrown in. It's all the stuff we'd like to try (like soccer with cars, car darts, drag racing, Motor home racing, etc.).

Here is a link to one of my favorites and the one that got me hooked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v4YNkurhLk It is about the Ariel Atom which is actually made down at VIR near South Boston (http://www.arielatom.com/). I want one!

OH yea, 1 warning. Chances are you will get hooked!

Sorry that I didn't reply to this when it was first posted, but I have really gotten hooked on this show. Youtube some clips of it and you will be addicted... It's amazing.

man, just a little over a year later. The American version did not get picked up. They don't think a show like that would do well over here. I think BBC America could tell you otherwise. How much better would that show be if you understood half the jokes they were telling?

Yeah... it's my favorite show and I miss half the jokes. I can only imagine if I got them all. I get a lot of the "football" jokes, which are usually quite hilarious.

Did anyone else think that they were going to die at a few different points? I really thought so...

That was by far the best episode ever. Yea, between the makeshift bridge, the death road, and the lack of Oxygen - they were in a world of trouble. Awesome!
