Wasnt the best episode Ive seen thought it dragged on a bit,but could have been a lot worse.Respect to the road safety minister for being the special guest!!

Y8tes · November 27th, 2005, 11:57 PM

The supercar section was good, but carried on a bit loo long really.

Also, was it me, or was the Zonda they had in the studio a Zonda F? Only got a brief look, but i swear that bottom section was black instead of coloured.

Really didn't like Ladyman that much, I can't stand politition-speak, although much respect for the drive!

GraemeH · November 28th, 2005, 12:00 AM

I thought it was a great episode. Jeremy summed up supercars perfectly on the shot of them crossing the bridge (beutiful music too). I was saying to myself as lady-man was doing his lap 'they should have put up a speedcamera'.

There were so many awesome sounds in the supercar segments..

waiting for the Rip to come out

good ep - I really enjoyed the supercar section. Especially the bit where they got stuck images/smilies/biggrin.gif

SPG900 · November 28th, 2005, 12:19 AM

That was the best bit though. Apart from that, not much seemed to happen. I guess that's what you get with these non scripted shows...

monkeymax · November 28th, 2005, 12:20 AM

Yup, the getting stuck bit was very funny.
I actually really enjoyed that episode. Although I must admit them constantly going on about Hammond's teeth is beginning to get quite irritating... (they did it at MPH '05 too...)

Supercar bit was very cool and very funny.

Focus ST had some funny bits too but I loved the camera work on that bit - as usual top notch! images/smilies/smile.gif

Ottobon · November 28th, 2005, 12:40 AM

out of 10 what would you guys give it?

havnt seen it yet, im praying its good, last weeks episode actually through me off, but im gonna blame that on the Caymen review, which i thought was really iffy(especially since i like the car, ie read other articles)

As it says in the topic of the IRC channel, Vuk is currently uploading his rip. images/smilies/smile.gif

m0nk3y · November 28th, 2005, 4:09 AM

omg that carpark scene was painful to watch..i was cringing when they were trying to get out images/smilies/cry.gif

Volred · November 28th, 2005, 4:39 AM

The "RiVER" rip IE: http://www.mininova.org/tor/163786 was too "loud"
I couldnt hear the cars properly.. It sounds like the default sound was set too high.

I'll wait for VuK's rip. (To keep)

vasu · November 28th, 2005, 5:15 AM

the Cool Wall section was the best one I've seen ever. Hamster eating the M6, hahaha

Viper007Bond · November 28th, 2005, 5:40 AM

I choked on the food I was eating when Jeremy drove by in the Focus going "BLEEHH!!". images/smilies/lmao.gif

French though, so gotta treat her rough to keep her happy. 1989 Toyota MR2 Mk1 - owned it for two years. Love it loads. Currently undergoing a suspension upgrade... 1987 Toyota MR2 Mk1 SC - A project car that had Headgasket issues when I bought it. I've never driven it... yet...
