That was comic genius.

The last section with the police chases was rather dull though........

more of the same but its getting harder to make it funny. I'll still watch it as the dynamic is great between them but the producers are running out of ideas.

As shown by the rehashing of an old segment done years ago. It was a better segment then in my view as well.

Good fun but that first episode was painfully predictable.

Peugeot 205gti vs 208gti
Renault 5 gt vs Renault Clio Cup
Ford Xr2 vs Fiesta ST

But no....it was a nova.

Shelsley Walsh is literally 10 mins from where I live.

They don't do public track days, as you can imagine hill climbing is not easy and it would be too risky to let Joe Public loose on the track.

They do however run a breakfast club on the first Sunday of the month, where every and any car turns up, from our 'Ludes all the way up to Astons and Ferraris. You are allowed to walk the track at this time also.
