Can't wait! Do you know what network?That was one of my favorites when it used to be on. I can't remember what channel carried it, I think it was Speed. They must have needed more time slots for Nascar[sm=smiley11.gif]. re-runs.

Why don't they also just air the english top gear in the US.

Currently I watch it on YouTube, and don't they use all types of cars, not just british.

I can't wait for this to be on tho it's a great show

Yes they have all types of cars not just British...might just be more emphasis on US cars for the US viewers (I dont know just guessing) but even if its just half as good as the British show it will be great.
