Season 18 preview ... Can't wait to see Richard driving a NASCAR car.

Series Eighteen is starting January 29th 2012 according to Top Gear Magazine following the Christmas special aired on 28 December 2011.[1] In the special they take a route across India, the first of the many countries Top Gear plans to visit over the course of the new series, according to Jeremy Clarkson. Shooting in India began on 2 October, with the first leg of the shooting beginning in suburbs of Mumbai.[2] [3] The show was also seen in Lecce, Italy with a Noble M600, McLaren MP4-12C and a Lamborghini Aventador.[4] Hammond announced during the Top Gear Live shows in Birmingham, that additional recordings for the new series had been done in the USA.
In the January 2012 edition of Top Gear Magazine, it featured a preview of what to expect in series 18. It included a piece where Richard Hammond drives a NASCAR safety car for a real race, later going on to drive an actual NASCAR race car. The magazine also featured a part of some of the power tests to expect, including Jeremy Clarkson driving a Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Edition, a Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster and a Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale. Hammond meanwhile will drive a 2012 BMW M5 F10, and May will have a Vauxhall Corsa Nurburgring Edition. Another feature is going to China to test drive Chinese cars, Italy in 3 super-cars, Lamborghini Aventador, Noble M600 and a McLaren MP4-12C.

 

 

Was that an RS 500 Focus flying?! THOSE BASTARDS!

 

I ran into James May shooting a segment on the Fisker Karma at a state park down in Florida while we were on vacation in November. Hopefully that will be in series 18 as well. Captain Slow seemed like a nice enough guy in person, and was accomodating of this large sweaty American in short pants when I asked to take a picture with him.

 

I CAN'T WAIT!!!! :b anana:

 

the new episode was awesome! Love the race scenes at the end!

 

Can't wait to watch it tomorrow after work.

 

Cant' believe they used that episode to start the season!!! I love the Aventador!!! Lotto winning car for sure. I'm impressed with the McLaren too. That makes me want to go to the dealer near work to see them (yes, we have one of the 8 McLaren franchises in the country in my area)!!! And gotta love the Noble for being the only car with a proper gearbox!!!

Cant' wait for episode 2!!!

 

New episode this Sunday. Jeremy and James are testing Chinese cars and Richard is coming to the USA to test a NASCAR car.

 

Richard in a NASCAR!?!?!

 

Yup. I think he's gonna drive the actual race with NASCAR drivers. Not the official NASCAR race, just the race.

 

Episode 2 was pretty good too, especially the part with Chinese cars.

 

so I seen a tv ad for top gear american last night. I guess we are going to get another season. I could of swore its was canned.

 

History Channel confirmed back in October that they will film additional 8 episodes of TG USA.

 

IIRC it starts next Tuesday.
