I have mixed feelings on Top Gear.
I find Clarkson and James May entertaining, but I think Hammond is a rubbish road tester and thus find him annoying.

It just gets a bit boring afterwhile watching them hooning about in cars that most of the population will never be able to afford

A good road test of a more "normal" car if done properly is far mor interesting and entertaining. Tom Ford is a excellent exponent of this

I liked the one where Hamster and May where in the aeroplane (quite a challenge for James may as he had only just got his pilots licence) although this is spoiled by Hammonds constant, pathetic whining.

I'd like to see a realistic challenge in which Clarkson might actually have a chance of losing. How about

Good rider + Honda Blackbird (or similar) vs Clarkson in whatever supercar is flavour of the month. Across the alps and through two major city centres.

I know who my money would be on.

My friend flew that plance on friday (hius dads mate let him have a fly in that exact plane, how cool!)

i like top gear, Hammond is funny and clarkson is a kn*b but you just seem to like him take the p!ss out of everthing, tho what i do hate is he always slags off cars that he will go out and buy! everycar thats not worth over £500,000 is not a cr*p car!

May be a delay to the new series, they're possibly being kicked out from the current test track

****ing people off is how Clarkson makes his money, It his profession, just take him with a pinch of salt...
