Some show ideas
Some show ideas
1.) SIARPC: "Hard Core Edition".
Take the top five (ten?) on the leaderboard and put them into higher performance cars. Make it a whole show that shows how they progress (Not certain if this makes for mainstream TV). Or, since it is not really dependent on the the normal presenters, make it a special between series. Make it an annual thing, top two (one?) defend against subsequent year's top five drivers.
For car selection, make it something that normal enthusiasts can attain and relate to: new or used S2000, Z4, Cayman, whatever. Set a budget price of what, ?25k-?30k. That would be a guess on my part since I don't know the UK market and think in Canadian dollars. Just to be clear: all drivers drive the same car.
Almost smells like a reality TV show. Simon and Jay would be able to make it entertaining enough for a non-enthusiast I'd guess.
2.) Defender vs FJC vs Wrangler (JK). Possibly throw in a Russian UAZ as well to show how the Stig can still beat the crap out the lads driving a total POS. Maybe contrast against an early LR Series II, Willys pattern CJ5, Toyota FJ40 in a different segment or show.
3.) Bring back the Veyron with the all the computer aids turned off (talk to Tiff Needell) and see what it does on the TG track.
