Post subject:  Goodbye Top Gear and thanks for the memories

Well it seems that it's offically over. Got an email today saying that top gear festival had been cancelled and I could swap my ticket for a an arena show in July called "Clarkson, Hammond & May". Looks like they have all pulled the pin on the bbc. So that got me thinking about my favourite parts of the show. I still think the biggest laugh I ever got was when they were ice racing In rear wheel drive cars against four wheel drive cars and there was a former French f1 driver in the field and as he went past May in his Morris Marina he said in his best French accent "what is this piece of xxxx"

Great episode that...watched it the other day.


Two come to mind for me...when Hammond tested the "Barfast EditionVXR8"....."It goes to 11!" and the Botswana special.

Oh well, with Top Gear gone, I have to pull out my old VHS tapes of Torque and watch Peter Wherrett go drag racing.

Another great episode was when they went caravanning. After many collamatis moments that ended with Hammond burning it and their neighbours van to the ground. I would love to know how much their insurance premium was per year

I loved whenever they drove one of our V8s. All that power and didnt what to do with it other then to put it sideways.

This one was cool...well cool x 2...and maybe it wasn't from a Top Gear episode, but Capt Slow is in it.
