@fratto: If such people deserve to be made fun of, what's the deserved treatment for folks who don't know that Jeep isn't owned by GM when they make off the cuff comments? Have a nice day.

The problem is that it takes time to get chemistry between folks. The first couple seasons of the real Top Gear were not the well oiled machine that you see today. It even took them a bit to get the cast right. People condemning this before even one episode has aired is just asinine. It may not be as good as the…

I love how you can see the blacktop through where his floor used to be.

Hybrid technology. But on a more interpersonal mindset, smoking and distracting the driver are bad.

@Hopman: They run NASCAR, I figured we'd have to ease them into it. :D

Everybody on the NASCAR controlling body's board should be forced to attend a Lemons race so they can be reminded what excitement and pride are.

While as a specific car I would say Civics. In more general terms, I would say VTEC folks... and maybe Scion types.

Remember when chest high, foot plus thick concrete walls used to have some padding between them and the cars? Why are there no water barrels or at least tires against that wall? Yikes.

Speaking as someone from the northeast where flat off roading is rare and rocky off roading is the norm, I think the Raptor would be largely wasted without huge tracts of sand to toss it around. That, and, while the Rubicon is the high end Wrangler, it's still made out of reasonably common parts. The items that make…

@Mr.choppers - Delenda Carthago Est: Holy crap, It's Martin Sheen!

Former President Bill Clinton was unhurt...

@Dawgvet06: If I wanted to watch something go around in circles for four hours I'd be caught up on my laundry. Why I'd stare at the washing machine that long is beyond me. But I guess it makes as much sense as watching these races.

I know this'll annoy people, but I can't resist: Nothing associated with stock car racing has a brain that big.

We need the 3 eyed Simpson fish swimming past.

The Clarkson Solution: Reopen the footpath, put the fencing up on either side of said path so that it becomes so unappealing that nobody will want to walk it anymore.

@NSFU: Go down with your ship, it'll be less painful than the harassing you'll take for having driven your lambo into a pond and you'll have died in a cool way at least.

Many interesting things here. First off, the mention of the Dacia... they've been complaining that the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car board was getting quite full, and rumblings of a new car have been going for a while. What better car for this than the Dacia Sandero? A car with history in the show and very…

@Crel: I'd love to see that, but it would be odd, no other courses share a strip of tarmac at two parts of the same circuit. Might work as a point to point only course though. I'd be sad to see a race where a car couldn't get past Chicago before the lead car cleared the follow through. Well, maybe if Schumacher was…

Subtitle: Good Old Days: Remember when cars were dangerous and smoking was safe?

Tennessee police will later ticket the house for overtaking on the right.
