Heard about this today after it aired. I'll have to find it somewhere to watch it. I heard they used a different talon to smash.

God damn this show is terrible... Feels so forced, the I interaction between the hosts is so phony. Tg Australia is the only non UK TG spin off that is anwhere close to the original.

Except for when they were they were testing the ZR1 and couldnt do better than like a 5 second zero to 60 time. Then they called GM and said we cant make your car go fast. GM replied to them, when are you shifting? It can do 60 in first gear retards.

Then they didnt short shift it and LOW AND BEHOLD THE 0-60 TIME BECAME FAST.

Smartest car guys ever.

TG US should've had Tim Allen, Jay Leno, and Adam Corolla as the hosts.


Then it wouldn't be the suck

Agreed. Leno would have been perfect for this show.

I honestly don't mind the show that much. Not nearly as good as the uk one but better than most other crap I watch anyways

It seems no matter what the challenge is, Tanner always is the best and wins. Kinda corny to me.

Considering that the other 2 are idiots or at least play idiots on TV the result is not surprising. It like entering Usain Bolt into the Special Olympics. That show is painful to watch it is so bad.
