Default place bets on record users on Final Gear today

Last season of Top Gear we had 1,591 users strain the server; will we break the record today? Closest guess get 10 million Final Gear bucks and the adoration of all who read this thread.

I'm gonna guess 1320, banking on the theory that top gear has peaked in popularity and is going slightly downhill
