I wouldn't be so quick to judge Foust solely on Supercars Exposed...it sounds like he's reading from a script written by the worst writers ever.
Wtf? The guy from Supercars Exposed? He really sucked in that show, but hey, we have to see the show first to see if its any good.
With Adam Carolla there's a chance we'll see more of the "Juggys" and "Girls Jumping on Trampolines" Image Unavailable, Please Login
dude....supercars exposed is Foust's own show.....that's how much he sucks. I have to give it to him....that show was a genius career move. It got him the dream job on top gear.
Somewhere I remember reading that he had a 355 and has a Datsun set up for the track, saw him a couple years ago at the Christies auction in Monterey.
Not to inflate the ego of Jeremy Clarkson further, but without him the show may as well be titled "Car Talk For Wankers." In spite of this, I don't doubt it's ability to captivate the American audience.
Adam Carolla might be the saving grace for this show. But i still cant imagine him being any jeremy clarkson.
Spot on. I don't give a rat's @ss about the american version as long as I still get Clarkson and the brits!
You DON'T get the real top gear on BBC America. Due to licensing restrictions and other legal issues, the episodes, while mostly intact, feature different cuts and completely different music than the original TOP GEAR episodes shown in the UK. The only way to get the real TOP GEAR stateside is to download it on BitTorrent or the like. http://discussions.bbcamerica.com/jiveforums/thread.jspa?messageID=33270
He also owns several Lambos. He has been a huge car nut since he was a kid. On his radio show he said they were going to mostly stick to having European sports cars on the show.
I heard from a reputable source that they will be having the new CTS-V on there near the beginning. Jeremy didn't love the car, but he didnt hate it. And if my memory serves me correctly, it out tracked an Audi RS. Should be interesting to see what they think about it. I just love the UK version because it is bar none the most unbiased car show period.
