I agree, even at its current state, its better than any American car show I can think of. But it will never be as good as the British version. They have a big shoe to fill, but I think with time they'll be able to find a nice rythm.

My main gripe after watching the piece on the 370Z is it focused too much on the humor and competition that it completely forgot to review the car. The Brits are able to accomplish all of this without any effort.

Is it just me, but they grabbed 3 guys, 1 pro driver, 1 techno geek, and 1 comedian. It sounds like a fun and dynamic recipe but to me so far Tanner is the only one holding his own. The other 2 need to catch up and find their roles and run with it. Right now it just seems awkward.
