I have to add that I seriously laughed out loud when Adam Carolla said, "Who made your spoiler? Nerf?!" when talking to Eric about his 944.

Sorry, but the best line was, "KITT! Take me to AA!"

Right now you'll be put on the waiting list.

Any So Cal ppl want to meet up for taping. I missed that last one cause of my mothers birthday.
Lol you gotta be yanking me, my mom's birthday was on the same day (July 26), which was also part of the reason why I was still iffy about going even if I had tickets, which fortunately (or not) I did not get any.

I have stumbled across this site a couple times. At the taping I heard Andy mention it, and decided to post here. Nice to get a mention .

I think their were quiet a few people from the automotive industry there. Expect something from Edmunds - Inside Line soon. Autoblog put up a post on Sunday morning.

Adam was great. Tanner is a great driver, just needs some time. Eric.... well they could find anyone for that spot.

i can't believe so many of you haven't noticed the "eye-candy placement" before on tg-uk. they've been blatantly doing this for atleast a few seasons now. nothing to piss your pants/ies over though. it's the nature of the television business.

Trust me, the UK version is MUCH more subtle in placing prop-people in view of the camera than the US taping. It was absolutely crazy seeing some of these outfits in a TG crowd...

Can we add a spoiler tag to the thread title? Just skimming through a few posts I already learned more about the pilot than I wanted.

Ok, that one just made me burst out in laughter. The Hoff for SIRPC? Yeah, that could work. images/smilies/wink.gif

Also, the pilot has got a lot of praise here. I'm kinda excited about it but still, only americans have seen the show yet so I'll refrain from holding my breath.


Oh, and the guy who mentioned the Saturn Sky as a great american car? Google the "Opel GT" and the car it's based upon, the Vauxhall/Opel Speedster.
