Greetings /o/. I was able to get tickets to a taping of the new top gear usa. It was... interesting. This was my first time going to any sort of recorded television. That in itself was a sight to see. A couple musings.
-our "star" was Russell peters. I saw on the board cj Wilson and one other person. Cj seems like he would be the guy to beat.
-the star in a reasonably priced car is filmed on the track live while the audience is in the studio (studio is in the garage next to track)
-the car is a red manual civic si
-stig was there and his hotlap was done in a stripped out Toyota Sienna tuned r on enkei's and Hoosier slicks
-other cars on the timed lap, nsx and a lambo, want to say huracan
-the hosts chemistry seems like it could be there, but to early to tell.
-William ficthner is very much the lead, and has that "I'm an actor" vibe about him. Meaning he was getting annoyed when they needed to do a couple takes.
-it's at vegas speedway
Other than a couple minor things, it's very much following the format of old top gear U.K.
