Words cannot describe how disappointed I was that one of them (I would have guessed Rutledge) didn't pull a Smokey Yunick and fit a 2" fuel line to their "stock" car to increase fuel capacity. If ya' ain't cheatin', ya' ain't tryin'

Has it been mentioned there's a Hammond special featuring the cars of James Bond airing tonight on BBC2? Because if not, there you go. Also, it will be reaired on BBC America "on 12th November 2012 at 8:30pm". Related: Hammond can recognize a good short joke. jdfording posted:Chasing Classic Cars is ok but it's all about the $$ with Wayne.

I'm probably the only one who cracked up watching James walk away in this scene. (If only the road had played the theme song from The Incredible Hulk instead of the William Tell Overture.)

This time it wasn't even that they used a Top Gear UK challenge, they blatantly ripped off the three vehicles from the original as well. Although I loved Rutledge's Honda, and I don't care if it makes me a bad person, I want to try building something like that someday.

McDragon posted:Right, for me that was definitely the best Special they've done. The whole little bit where they revealed they'd cannibalised each others cars was great. And James going on and on about how poor of a job Jeremy did is what put it really over the top. nmfree fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Mar 11, 2013 |

Data Graham posted:Wasn't the "Hammond" in the welding mask wearing a sidearm? No, that's a multitool. Also, I actually believe that while the support mechanic probably did a good bit of work, Hammond actually did at least some of the real work on the car himself. Both he and May have taken up restoring old vehicles as a hobby, so they both will know at least something about doing basic repairs, welding, etc. Or maybe the mechanic did all of the work and this was just a beauty shot. vv
