Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

yeah, that's what I thought as well.....they do, but I have heard scuttlebutt about a V-8 version of this thing.

If it does, there's no such thing as an operator/driver....you're just along for the ride with the rest of the hardware...LOL

There was one on the 2008 Powertour. I believe they did the Long Haul, rain and everything.

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

Is that a regular series? That guy was great.

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

BBC Progra I think.
It is called "Top Gear"

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

That's Jeremy Clarkson, the same guy that took a shit on the Chrysler Sebring in the British paper.

Some people find him to be obnoxious and annoying. I think he's great (probably because I am obnoxious and annoying).

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

He has his moments.....I get a kick out the show myself.

He really "took the piss" on the SVT Lightning test drive(to be somewhat fair, that was a ragged-out truck, with an half-assed RHD conversion)......and what the hell is a "Stig"?

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

We would all give a left nut to have his job!!

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

and what the hell is a "Stig"?

Someone who'd beat all our asses combined on a road course.

The American version of the show is coming. Adam Corolla is the lead guy. It has the potential to be cool.

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

But Adam Corolla???

Rather see someone that has an appreciation for cars. Jay Leno maybe.

Re: Top Gear - Ariel Atom

Corolla is totally hardcore. Owns one of Paul Newman's world championship race cars amongst a host of other stuff.
