i dunno, maybe its cause i wasnt a huge fan of top gear to begin with, but i didnt find either of the first 2 episodes to be bad at all.

The only episode of the UK Top Gear I've ever seen is where they tried to max out the Veyron, so I can't really compare.

I enjoyed the first US episode immensly, the Viper and the Hipachi (sp?) scene was amazing, and my wifes favorite supercar is the Lambo, so even SHE enjoyed it. But the 2nd episode seemed to be missing something... I agree with an earlier statement that there is no chemistry between the three dudes.

Tanner Faust is a god behind the wheel of a car though... and at this point, he is why I watch the show. Adam's not that funny, and I find the big guy annoying 80% of the time.

In the world (and in my mind) I would say Faust is easily 3rd in my top 5 list of favorite drivers.

1) Travis Pastrana
2) Ken Block
3) Tanner Faust
4) Danica Patrick
5) Colin McRae (RIP)

Please explain why Colin McRae is 5th on this list?

Hahahaha - I knew you would have something to say about that!

I was going to put him in 1st, but I thought it best to choose current drivers... but McRae doesn't even belong on that list really... he has a list all to himself. thumbsup.gif
