| #1: Thank God that was just something for Speed because that music made me think about harming myself. #2: Adam was great, ever for the 30 seconds he was actually on camera. His commentary was hilarious (he has good timing and delivery). I'm Prost264 and I approve this clip. | |

| On top of that, i doubt speed has writers for him, so he's done something here that top gear rarely does: Speaking off the cuff...

No way, he "writes" all his stuff on the spot. When he does stand-up, he's said many times that he doesn't even think about what he's going to say until he's actually on stage. Should transfer well to Gear, especially if they don't cut it all like they did on Dancing with the Stars.

Jimmy Kimmel always does Pontiac stuff (his music stage for example always has a Pontiac car on it for example) and I think 50 Cent is involved with them as well.

| That was a pretty good clip; proves that he isn't welded to Europe's nutsack, but can appreciate the brawly shouty stuff born in Australia. The Carolla-led "Gear" has some brightness in its future. | |
