Adam we pretty much already knew, Tanner Foust, and Eric Stomer.

Interesting choices.

I'm sure there'll be some sort of 'phantom' driver.

With a much more lame, PC-friendly nickname.

I'll give it a shot. Never hurts to try new things sometimes. After all it is a show about cars.

Should be interesting. Just wondering how it will flow as a show.

I'll check it out but I doubt they will have as much freedom to do things that the UK crew did. Plus, from what I understand Top Gear is one of the top-rated shows over there so it commands a great deal of respect which again allows them to do things that might be tough over here.

I'll watch, but I expect it to fail.

Won't have the freedom; won't have the humor; won't have the quirky chemistry between the leads; and I'm almost certain won't have the spectacular cinematography - all of which led the REAL Top Gear to win the Best Overall Award during a Special Jury prize at the recent Banff Television Festival (an international event that takes place OUTSIDE the UK).
