There are some corny parts but it's still a good show and for most car nuts it's a great show. It's a shame they give the US a different version but I'd rather have that than nothing.

Now the only two good car review shows are Motorweek and Car and Driver.

Thanks for all the support, guys. If anyone is on any other forums, please spread the word. i-club? VW? Whatever. And special thanks to the gentleman who got this onto the Mini forum.

Thanks again!

That sucks, the show is awesome.

And the EVO would have been a few seconds better if the driver did not drop completey off the boost on two corners.

First the Retards of America take over Speedvision and effectively kill it. Then Discovery and this! Just who is running the show in the US? A bunch of drunk hippies?
