Supposedly they are gonna bring it to america full time. Who knows though.

[SoySauceCb7]

[texasvtak]

Its going to be an American version. It might suck, it might not. We wont know til its aired, so quit bitching.

[AccordWarrior]

Those guys have possibly the best job ever.

One episode I was watching they smashed trailers into each other via cranes, had a full contact race with old minivans, and tested the departure speed of toupees.

We all should be so lucky.

[texasvtak]

Dont forget old english ladies drinking tea and talking about cake before doing donuts in an S2000.

"coo pay" = coupe

"saloon" = sedan (assumingly, since he usually is talking about a sedan when he says saloon)


kinda weird.. but they also call the trunk the "boot" when really it's more of a cargo hold.. the boot would be like the feet which would be the tires..

I dunno.. they talk funny

[CoPilot1]

did you see the episode where the had 3 of the smartest guys is britain do burnoutsin a 300ZX TT??? That Z was SICK!!!! and one guy just couldnt fucking do it....its a 500hp 300ZX!!!!! it does nothing BUT burnouts!!

OH! and the nun driving the monster truck!!! LMMFAO!!!!! ROFL!!!

[shelstadCB7]

the Z

I think the Z was the best one, one guy was bouncing off the rev limiter and freaking out.

Both correct.

Shooting Brake = station wagon.

Crazy Brits!

[Lantis]

and why does he say brake horse power?

it's wheel or crank where people measure power.. how can you measure power at the brakes?

[SoySauceCb7]

brake horse power is WHP like using a dynopack it attaches to the brakes
lol
