@peachyyy93 I haven't seen allot of US Top Gear but this was a very good video imo. What US Top Gear doesn't yet have is 3 characters with a real bond between them. I think what makes Top Gear UK so appealing is that Richard, James and Jeremy have been working with each other for over 15 years and so have managed to develop a bond/humour. They feed off of each other
@clutchSlipper that's the thing, they've had 15 years to work everything out. In a few years time and a few more seasons, I think the US Top Gear will get it right. Just give it time.
Great car wish they put it round their track though. Anyone know the name of the tune in the middle of the vid when he's speeding through the city (before the drag race)
The only thing that top gear USA was able to top the original top gear UK is tanner foust because he's the best driver. He's gd at every thing about cars whether it's about driving a car or drifting a car or as a car expert. he's truly the best car man.
fuck this man ass loving faggot techno music and no engine sounds!! I WANT TO HEAR THE GT2 RS KID not the music you listen to when your getting your butt plunged by some guy named "machine."
This is the greatest thing anyone could ever do, close down the roads downtown at night and street race in them with the fastest cars in the world. A man can dream.........
wow, a top gear American movie that I enjoyed!.. keep that kind of production and the Jeremy, Richard and James could have their work cut out for them. Well done Tanner, that was very well done.
@marvinkrab1986 that was the nickname for the original gt2. they changed it because of all the advancements made in the handling department so that it won't kill you like the original gt2.
Why did he do a drag race against an old school 69 muscle car and a viper??? He should have went up against a GTR and the ZR1. That would have been a fair and more real world race
@mukigero Thats the problem at all turbo charges engines. Warm air has greater displacement and cant deliver the amount of oxygene like cold one. This effect also take place on non turbo charged cars, but especially at turbo engines at under verry hot conditions.
I understand the laws of thermodynamics and that difference of air temperature (cca 100-120 F) can not cause such lack of power (80 hp).The declarative T of environment is 73.4 F.I havent took the time to write formulas.
@mukigero Also Passenger Jet´s must calculate the power lack if they start in a verry hot environment. Their max start weight depends on this e.g. in Afrika. Even if you drive any car above 1000m N.N. you you can feel the lack of power caused by the thinner air.
@alxvalerio5 It's not maxi. It's moxy. As in the old soda, it's a term that basically means 'balls' or 'swagger' or 'style' or 'presence' or any combination of those.
@LawrenceLugar500 then why the fuck are you here? go watch jeremy drag race a aston martin against a dodge ram, and call it a un bias comparison, and brag about british superiority.
message to all viper fans "power is nothing without control" and respect to all camaro lovers very very beautiful classic car one of the last good cars us produce.... ;) but today,german enginiering rules..!!!
Nobody buys a porsche for a drag race. These cars are made for corners. On the straight line are some cars as good as the porsche, but around the track porsche is the one and only.
@radar3699 Give them a few years.....the first few seasons of top gear uk were somewhat boring. I doubt US will ever top the UK version, I just hope it gets better in the next season or two.
@bernieboy Tanner Foust is a professional racing driver, stunt driver, and television host. He competes in rally, drift, ice racing, time attack and rallycross with multiple podium placements and national championships. thats who he is
GT2 RS probably would still win the drag race, but i would have liked to see the nova and viper do a nice burnout to get their tires as sticky as the porsche's, just to make an even race.
@ssaier813 Those egg yolk lamps are hideous!!! But that also drops the value of turbos those years, and it may be ugly but its sure as hell still performs!
this top gear sucks... it's all about the cast ... you can have the best cars in the world driven, shown, and compared ... but if you don't have a good cast with character, humor, and especially the stig... it just doesn't cut it.
@cardude1992 granted i doubt the viper would lose by that much but it does just spin at the line. no traction control and to much power. the porsche is made to take off fast. but the viper is still my dream car.
the filming was great, yet the whole show lacked a bit of flavor... I'm not saying the US doesn't have the potential to come up with something as good as top gear UK, but they should get someone like Jay Leno to do the show... someone who's lived long enough and is experienced enough in cars to give the show some personality
@smtbbo Just like the difference between the UK & US versions of The Office. It's just not the same. I had a feeling it wouldn't be as good, at least we have a half way decent car review show now.
