Wow... It actually wasn't as bad as i thought it would be... Way better than the last season! Now we just have to see how what the rest of the season is like... *cross fingers*
Glad that other bloke is gone too!

The two from last season are WAY more relaxed.

Don't mind Pizzati at all, he's actually quite funny and interesting now that he's not trying to be the Hamster.

Brown has also improved immensely now that he's realised his cartoons are dumb and comes across as genuinely likeable.

Jury is out on Morrison, but he isn't annoying, at least.

I'm going to keep watching

an $800,000 Lambo... and he didn't take it above 70km/h

Yeah, I laughed at the Lancer ad recreation. Almost got that damn chicken and the ice in! Even down the slide

it would 1000% better if they could just sound natural rather than the jilted script reading.

and send them back to journalism school. the interview was atrocious. short leading questions ffs.

there is so much potential in this show. who's the director/producer?

I thought it was heaps better than last year. At least morrison was not trying to be a mini jeremy clarkson.

I would love to know just how rigged / scripted the challenges are.

Assuming he actually did it, I did love morrison getting on the wireless to lindsay fox and hooking that truck up to slow the lambo down.

The show last night was really good. Morrision is a heap better than that other tard from last year. Surprised at the bimmer against the evo. That thing has crazy acceleration against an already fast evo, good to see the lap showed how much better the evo was. The lancer ad remake was gold, loved the granny toss.

Will keep watching next week.


Oh and plus 1,000,000 for the lambo. I want one. Surprise surprise hahahaha

Would take the Beemer hands down. Faster doesn't mean better. Lp640 was porn!

I thought the show was fantastic, really reminded me of the first couple of seasons of the UK version.

The only dissapointment... USE THE FARKING LAUNCH CONTROL WHEN DRAGGING THE EVO FFS!!!! If they had researched properly they would have known this (or does Mitsubishi forbid them from using it?).

It was interesting that they considered the 135i and Evo X MR 'similar money'. When I was buying mine (decision was between MR and 135i too actually) the 135i cost approx $20k more ($95k on road to $75k on road) to have the same features as the MR. A base 135i is real poverty pack.

Better then last years but there is still room for improvement. I don't mind the new bloke, his face was gold when he booted it on the jetski
