The Turbo II’s had a tougher transmission and rear end. This car does have an appropriate T-56, but it’s rolling dice on the rear if hard launches are done.

Zoobooks taught me this is the mantis’ “get out” stance, so it’s already scared or disturbed.

Were the rules changed to a fine? Last couple of times this has happened they would knock the team down a few places or at least off the podium.

Yes, though it was widely rumored that the French scrutineers really wanted the Citroens to win.

Wouldn’t not knowing who will last the distance make it better than last year? Last year everyone knew Toyota was slow and it was just a coin toss between Audi and Porsche.

I hate anyone that ever had a pony!

Thank you, I thought everyone forgot about her. “Everytime We Touch” was at least her one hit here.

I’m sorry but at the end Top Gear was a caracure of Clarkson, Hammond and May trying and failing miserably at being Clarkson, Hammond and May from when they weren’t trying REALLY too hard.

The India Special is my low bar. While last week’s shit challenge hit that level, episode 2 is way better.

#8: They’re doing it like Fifth Gear. There’s probably not enough material or budget to give everyone screen time each episode, but you’ll get a longer feature each time.

I found it interesting that May was like Clarkson with Oz because he kept screwing around while Oz was trying to seriously give a lecture.

One night I couldn’t sleep and flipped to Turner Classic and saw Incubus because “hey look, it’s Shatner”. It was so trippy I wasn’t sure I was awake or asleep.

I wouldn’t call the Vietnam Special recent, it was from 2008. They were at their best at that time.

I was going to give it a pass, but then the underside shows an exhaust pipe going to the front.

Bummer for team gummy bear.

The Fiat 500 has the engine in the back.

When did the 500 become part of a series championship? Wiki seems to tell me up until CART in 1978 it was a singular race with diverse entrants, even counting towards F1 (FIA World Drivers’ Championship) from 1950-1960.

Was the Super Stallion/Sea Dragon retired?

Emerson Fittipaldi drank orange juice (because he owned an orchard or something) and the fans didn’t take it well.

The concorso is awesome just for the setting alone.
