    Default Top Gear: Season 11, Episode #1, *NOT A SPOILER*

    Before BBC2 takes it off Youtube, watch here.

    IF You haven't seen it yet,, Here are parts 1-7.

    Part 1
    Part 2
    Part 3
    Part 4
    Part 5
    Part 6
    Part 7

    IF you have already seen the episode scroll down \/ *spoiler*












    My opinions on:

    Economical SuperCar Race:

    Great idea, im shocked the Lambo finished 2nd. I had guesses before the start and i had the Lambo going empty first. I did think the Audi would win though.


    Toyota Prius vs. BMW M3:

    Proof that like i preach to everyone, a light foot means better mileage. Unlike most Top Gears of late, that was very relivent.

    Ferrari 430 Scuderia Review:

    This is one of my favorite cars, because i love the idea of a light weight. That's why im excited about the future Tii 3 series Bmw. But the Scuderia, comes off as a business car and unlike most of you. I like the F430 styling.

    Reverse Car Jumping:
    Strange idea, reminds me of the Limo and Bus jump of the past. It wasn't a waste of time but it could have been done better.

    Star in cheap car.

    Never a fan of this in general. I have to say, ive never heard a gay person + British accent. Both sucked in the cars though.

    Cop Cars:
    Always loved the cheap car challenges, this didn't disappoint, the Fiat and BMW banging wheels was genius.

    Reps to you, and do you know if they will be showing any on BBC network and not BBC 2. I know they showed the older episodes on BBC but I'm not sure if I have BBC 2.

    I don't have BBC America (yet) so i don't know how they cover top gear.

    I have heard that they have used parts of Season 9 and 10 and that the episodes are shorter than they should be.

    But i don't know the answer.

    "Summer episodes" is basically something they do with the introduction to every seasons. It is showing what they have worked on and what we will see in season 11.
