Excellent opening episode. Was great to see the 3 HyperCars on the same track driven how they have been designed to be driven.

Opening sequence was excellent!

Loved it. It's Top Gear without the BBC political correctness.

Good that they were still 'allowed' to be British and didn't have to pander to the Yanks too much, despite who's bankrolling it.

Yep. Agree with everyone here. What top gear should have evolved into had the BBC not got so up its own arse.
Love that Porsche 918. The only Porsche I think I've ever lusted after :smile:

To me the standout part was Clarksons reaction to the P1 coming loose after the first drag race - a proper honest reaction.

918 has four wheel steering like a Honda prelude

Episode 2 not as good, especially the whole military segment.

Oh dear.
