Top Gear Guides and Resources ** SEARCH HERE FIRST PLEASE ** - Page 3

Not a guide as such - more a resource but I've put together a page of Top Gear episode ratings in the UK.

All I want is to find out when the episode with S2000 vs. Boxter vs. Z4 aired or what season/episode it was. I've downloaded a couple "guides" and still can't find them and I also don't have all those programs to open all the files.
You used to have a list on one page: http://forum.finalgear.com/viewtopic.php?t=179
But apparently that was too easy and practical.

Series 3, Episode 2. Are you retarded?

Are you a 5-yr old?
You've been at this site for years and get frustrated over somebody not not being able to find something after asking politely. WTF is your problem?

Yes, we do get frustrated at people, but only because it's incredibly easy to find what episode had what via the dozens of guides linked to in this thread, and yet people still insist on asking what episode had some car.

I'm sorry, but please try harder next time.

I've updated and tweaked the ratings page - and moved it

Now here
http://www.upyourego.com/topgear/ratings/

It's the viewing figures, audience share and audience appreciation figure for every episode of Top Gear since the new version started.

Yes, it has been down for a couple of weeks now and I haven't been able to get a hold of the guy who hosts it for me.

FYI, I'm not at all up to date with the Classic episodes, I just haven't had the time to work on them.

Sure, like on guides.finalgear.com (or is that TechZ's)?

I have seen a couple of clips on youtube of what seemed like a track day special in Nevada of mostly american cars, does anyone know what episode is that?

Hi,

The link on your site to http://guides.finalgear.com/files/Top_Gear_Episodes.htm
is out of date compared to http://espnsti.iridiumonline.info/FG...r_Episodes.htm

Thanks

Hi,

I've created a list of all the small races (NOT the epic ones, eg Aston vs Train) and all the small challenges (NOT the big ones, eg £1,500 Porsche) because, unlike the big stuff where I've memorised the episode numbers images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

, I get sick of, 1) having to search the full episode guides to find them, 2) finding something interesting to watch when I need to Top Gear fix. For example, '24 hours in a car' rarely springs to mind in this situation as it lacks the grandeur of the big stuff, but it's quite an entertaining segment.

With nowhere to put it so others might benefit, I've added a couple of sections to the Wikipedia article. I feel it's likely that they'll be removed as either fancruft or original research (even though it's simply a list of facts about the show), so perhaps a case can be made to host something like this here?

jimform2k1 · April 17th, 2008, 1:36 PM

Hi,

In your great guide, is there any way that the 01x03 and 01x04 (short) episodes could be updated with more/full content from the recent AUS rips?

Thanks
