A solid 8.5. Because FG polls don't go fractions, I had to round it up.
So, yeah ... 9 it is.
Steve's Elfin review was sensational. It covered all the basics, plus it had some conclusions (i.e. spending extra on the V8 Elfin is a waste of money etc). It even gave some decent tech specs along the way! That said, most of the reviews in S2 have been vastly improved on their equivalents in S1.
The challenge was very, very funny. Sure, the scripting was obvious in parts, but I'm sure Wazza nearly shitting himself wasn't in the script.
I don't think the Kombi was a cop-out, I thought it was a very humourous plot device. I just about LOLed off the couch when I saw the Kombi in UN colours...!
The car ad ... I saw that on YouTube a few months back and was wondering the same thing Pizzati was.
HG Nelson was an excellent guest, arguably the best non-motorsport related SIABSC thus far. It seemed like he really wanted to be there, and wasn't there because his manager or SBS told him he had to be. SIABSC didn't drag on, and HG was talking *gasp* about cars!! More guests like that, please! (although did anyone else notice the audience member behind HG in the Valvoline t-shirt? I thought Castrol still sponsored TGA, although I'm overjoyed there are no more of those stupid badly dubbed Castrol Edge ads during TGA).
The mobility scooter race was hilarious. Whilst one does have to wonder if the result is pre-determined (i.e. did Steve already film the GTHO review BEFORE the race?), scripting seemed to go out the window when they actually got onto the track. Using it to go out to and come back from a commercial break was also a nice touch. It would have lost its fun if we watched all 30 laps ...!
The best bit about this episode is how the timing of each item seemed about right. It seems like there were fewer items, but the items that were left in were finished properly.
So yeah, 8 wouldn't be quite enough, and 9 might be a little generous ... but I'm feeling generous.
Warren looks like he has some expreience with a firearm....anyone know if his history contains any military/hitmanesque chapters?
I have a feeling that Warren may have been in the Army for a while. I forget where I heard/read this though (probably somewhere on here!).
