I know I'm a little late with this, but what did you guys think of Tanner Foust's review of the Hennessy Velociraptor on Top Gear America?

Sure, it was a total ripoff of TG UK's review of the Porsche Cayenne a few years ago, but this doesn't mean it wasn't still awesome, right? A Velociraptor racing a HALO jumper is pretty epic.

 

That was definitely a good episode. There is a on-going debate about the show copying the original, but cool is still cool

 

very cool...

 

Yeah, that's a problem that TG:USA is going to run into as long as it lives, I'm afraid. But you're right. Cool is still cool. Try to find a better US based car show. No, they're not as funny as Clarkson/Hammond/May, and yes, they copy some of their ideas, but it's still a cool show. The more Top Gear, the better.

 

Clarkson, Hammond and May are a pretty amusing bunch. And so far I haven't seen USA show anything as funny as the Reliant Robin test drive haha. That was absolutely hilarious!

 

I love those Raptors!
I really don't dream of newer car or trucks, well expect having a new Raptor!
I think , what, 410 stock HP Fun Fun FFFFun!!

 

The Reliant Robin review was the funniest thing I've ever seen on Top Gear. I've probably seen it 8 times, and it still makes me laugh.

 

It makes me want one. There aren't to many trucks that can get me excited like the raptor does every time I see one.

 

I would love to see a race with Hammond going in a Bower and Faust in a Velociraptor...

I know that they have done a UK vs Aussie and UK vs Germany Top Gear...I would love to give Clarkson a large plate of crow to eat.

 

Yeah, TGUK vs TGUSA would be amazing. It would certainly boost TGUSA's popularity, which would be great.

 

I second that! Would definitely make for some good television

 

I think the idea for a TG US vs TG UK episode just got better...

Saw the TG UK facebook feed on the Mustang Boss 302...they are saying, in a nutshell, its the American version of the M3 CSL...and its a bit quicker.

 

@db_tanker Yeah, actually Ford Racing targeted the M3 when they designed the Boss 302. And it is quicker than the M3 around Laguna Seca.

I wrote an article about it, if you want to check it out.
