Talking Top Gear In Utah!!

I love the BBC tv show Top Gear. I follow their updates on the Finalgear website and it was reported that a couple of days ago the Top Gear crew flew into Reno, picked up 3 American Muscle cars and drove to the Bonneville Salt Flats. They filmed there on Friday and Saturday. One lucky SLC resident drove out there yesterday and got several pics and posted them on the Final Gear forums. I havent heard when they will be leaving, but I would love to go meet them. They host my favorite TV show and love the RX-8 too!

The Finalgear webiste photo host is down right now so I cant take a look at all the pics of cars, but from what I read they had a ZR-1, a Challenger SRT, and a CTS-V. James May of course was driving the CTS-V. Jeremy Clarkson was in the ZR-1 and Hammster was in the Challenger. They were also photoed driving other cars at the Salt Flats like a Cobra.

Tanner Foust was also photographed there I guess, so there is alot of speculation that they are introducing Top Gear USA or doing some kind of crossover episode.

Damn. talk about racial profiling ! The poor bastard is a new member and probably eager to join in. Its not like he's a chick who post's links to her semi nude pics,in the wrong section, but that's okay I guess.

Top gear is the most reputed magazine ever in the Auto world. I am a regular reader of that magazine and enjoy the reviews of the latest cars and bikes all over the world. The best thing about them is that they use brilliant quality paper which displays images in stunningly rich colors.

It's not racial profiling, it's region profiling. Being new and bumping a dead thread were my first suspicions.

OK, what do you think of this post ^. He's from India.
