Nice one thanks Bono will sky + it as I'm out on the shot in Inverness Sunday night, JC and the crew were in Dingwall recently, not sure what they were doing some race with a mail plane or something I heard.

Which channel will it be on ? BBC Two ?

I'm in Belgium until Sunday evening but hope mum has BBC 2 so I can watch before I drive back to UK.

Nice to watch someone else kicking tyres? The Top Gear crew make you fade into the distance and look like a dull train spotter in comparison...

Finally, seems like a long time since the last series, Sunday nights are never the same without Top Gear, enjoying 5th Gear at the moment though too

5th Gear would be a decent programme if the presenters weren't such cocks!! They seem to try and "get down with the homeys" but come accross as complete knobs who know even less about cars than I do.... and that's going some!! :shock:

Agreed, the new presenter is a special cock that's for sure, and he owns a CSL :lol:

Jason and Tiff are always worth watching though, Tiff scared the sh1t out of Sterling Moss in the 599 around maranello this week and Jason almost made matthew pinsent chunder all over the inside of the Maserati :lol:

The Porker PDK gearbox test was interesting, although I don't think Jason ever got to grips with it and didn't like it from the start.

I thought that was a false representation aswell presa, and I'm pretty sure that there is actually nothing in it !

by **danr55** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 7:43 am

that test was bullshit. I have used the PDK and can virtually guarentee it's quicker when you dont change gear in the wrong direction :lol:

by **bbigman2000** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 10:06 am

Thought so Dan !

by **WR 1mposter** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 1:27 pm

not allowed to watch it ! :roll:

by **Bonovox** » Sun Jun 21, 2009 10:20 pm

So the Stigs still Ben Collins and Schumacher was only there cause Ferrari don't trust anyone else to drive the FXX....some machine!!!!

by **SPIKE LIKE MIKE** » Sun Jun 21, 2009 10:23 pm

What happened??

I fell asleep when Jezza was shovelling coal!!!

He shoveled coal,schumacher was shown to be the Stig, there was a Ferrari that easily broke the track record then he shoveled more coal!
Going by the clips of what's coming looks like there could be some juicy stuff!

by **POESY** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 8:49 am

Fezza was awesome.

Programme was :zzz:

by **MaverickUK82** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:02 am

Hang on...

The Stig was Michael Schumacher?

by **WR1 Bro** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:09 am

Schuie is SO dull.

Well that's what they were claiming but he was probably the stig for just this week as I believe it was his Ferrari that the "Stig" was driving.

by **CAVEMAN** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:46 am

didn't see the show but I presume the Ferrari agreement to let BBC have the FXX on Top Gear would of had Schui as the only timed driver.

I know from another good F1 source that Lewis has a similar contract when any hot Merc is tested too.

by **Megaman** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 11:43 am

Great show yesterday - cant beat top gear... i still think Clarkson should be PM

Michael Schumacher clearly isn't the Stig, he was only a special guest and as Bonovox said he was probably only there to drive the FXX!

I found the last scene funny, where Schumacher Stig was all over the track lost and killing a camera on the way :lol:

by **CAVEMAN** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:17 pm

nope sorry can't get any iplayer stuff due to my IP address - only radio and current fav is Kissy Sell Out!! ...I would have to subscribe to a UK VPN service to get it...Youtube is pretty good for little clips of it.

by **bbigman2000** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 3:28 pm

Thanks for that Bono, Just watched it, and skipped the crap bits lol

by **SPIKE LIKE MIKE** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 6:14 pm

Cheers, I was asleep within 12 minutes............the 1st time :lol:

by **bbigman2000** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 9:28 pm

It was pretty piss poor to be frank
