I just found this in the "Radio Times"
before you read any further there might be a bit of a spoiler
Top GearSunday 07 October
8:00pm - 9:00pm
BBC2
Motoring magazine show with Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond. In the first of a new series. Jeremy, Richard and James drive three lightweight supercars across Europe in search of the best roads. Plus Jeremy finds out what happens when you put a Bentley engine into a VW Golf, and Dame Helen Mirren is the Star In A Reasonably Priced Car
The show's brilliant and I really don't mind if its set up to the masses more then us now. But one thing I really miss are the reviews, I personally loved all those reviews and they were the best part of Top Gear to me
Audi R8 doing a power lap should be interesting to watch, but dont expect it to be a supercar slayer tho. It should set a slightly faster time than the old Gallardo's laptime.
btw, cdbob, is that the Mclaren F1's gearing ratio in your sig??
I love the challenges, I think they make the show more watchable. If it was just car testing it would be boring, I mean who really needs to know the specs and data about a cars that are over $100,000 that very few people will actually be able to buy. The cool thing about top gear is that anyone can watch it, you don't have to be a gear head to enjoy it. Thats just my opinion, I mean I love cars but I couldn't sit through an hour of just car reviews.

im sorry champ but that was series one, 2002 (or 2003?)
9 series ago.... i know we brits dont like change lol, but it has to be done. people associated with TG and the show (such as columnists in TG Mag) have said a few times now that TG is now an entertainment show about cars, not a car show that just happened to be entertaining.
get used to it
or just dont watch
you havent been hard done by if they make something you dont like....you probably torrented it anyway.
I think the 3 lightweight supercars could be: Jeremy in a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, Richard in a Porsche 911 GT3 RS and James in the Aston V8 Vantage lightwight one (can't remember the name). I hope this is gonna be an awesome episode and an even awesomer season.
I have just had a call from applause and got tickets for the show.
Damn I hate these teasers because they are exactly that :lol: Can't wait any longer!!Here's the link to the trailer
