Tanner races a sports car against two extreme skiers down a mountain; Rutledge examines the Aston Martin's horsepower in their new Vantage model; Adam and Rutledge race pro drift champ Tanner Foust; "Lost" actor Dominic Monahan enters the test track.

Wow...the person who originally wrote that blurb knows nothing about cars.

I just copied it off the TV guide, apparently a new model is one that is 2 years old. It makes it sound more interesting to those who don't know much about cars.

any updated info about the coming 2nd episode?thanks

It should be interesting, I'm sure many of you will like this episode a little better than the opener. Rutledge will surprise and may annoy at the same time with his review of the Aston. The car is so "whoregeous." (Yes I made up a word.)

Was hoping the moonshiner challenge I keep hearing about would be in this one but no dice I guess. I'll still tune in. It will be cool to see how the hosts progress.

 

[That American Girl]

They're doing the "Blind driver" thing like Jeremy did, right?

It's weird. I'd like to see them re-visit the old classic Top Gear challenges. Amphibious cars, car vs whatever and so forth.

Yet I don't want them to do the same thing as the UK Top Gear....

Not really sure how to explain it. Or I'm just being odd again.
