Loved it! NASCAR was okay, but the China bit was really funny.

And Joey a quick driver, who would have thunk?

Another enjoyable episode, Chinese bit was really good as was Chinese Attack Stig.
Didn't watch SIARPC.

Very good episode again

Raised an interesting point tho

is Richard Hammond a Closet American :eek:

the China segment was interesting, but I hope the Merc Segment wasnt our one 'real' car review of the season
event eh SIARPC was intersting-ish

Enjoyable episode again. The Nascar section was great, "What would happen if you were caught eating salad?"

Joey has grey hair, thats just impossible

The Chinese bit was very good, some scripting but countered with good laughs

Solid follow-up to the enjoyable season-opener. The comedy is toned down and the subject matters (Nascar + China) were interesting, I found that shìtty 3-wheeler they drove was hilarious. I even enjoyed SIARPC since it was Joey and he ended up being the fastest on the board.

Enjoying the season so far.

Heh it must have been written by someone Chinese:

Some of Chinese cars makers have been accused of copying designs of other companies.[23] This judgement can seem to be harsh

Other Great Wall models may resemble those of other automakers: The Great Wall Florid, may look similar to a Toyota ist; and some older Great Wall Hover models may look like Isuzu Axioms, etc.

Yep, all in all another good episode.

Even SIARPC was watchable, nice to see someone on who's a 'gearhead' and not just plugging something. He is also a very good driver, super calm, good lines.

Good show once again facts, little bit of comedy and the star in the car was actually good, joey was plugging something but it seemed like that came second!
Top Gear put up a video of matt le blanc driving the maclaren around the track, himself and the stig, saying nothing, he's a good driver!

Chinese attack stig was hillarious! Plus a new Dodge Viper announced? YAAAAAA! Wait, it has a fiat engine????

I'd say it would be absolutely mental to drive in nascar.

Good episode again. The two guys in the tiny Chinese car was funny.

Only thing that annoyed me was Chinese Stig hitting everyone. It was a bit too forced IMO.

May's reaction to almost being kicked in the face, & Clarkson shutting the Stig into the cars made up for it though.

"Tonight, I, do a skid...Richard Hammond gets a job, and James May gets kicked in the face!"

Very good show, caught me by surprise as I had just got to my hotel. I think they might be carrying that American thing on Hammond like the teeth being done all those series ago.....

Brilliant episode. Was it my imagination or did they use "montage" music from South Park for the Nascar montage. If so, a brilliant unholy alliance has begun.

They did, before it started I thought "Montage from Team America would fit perfectly here." I've thought that thought thousands of times, first time it's actually happened. :pac: There's an older South Park version (Sports Training Montage) but it was the Team America version used.

Another good episode. Taught the Nascar bit brilliant. It must be mental drivng in Nascar.
