TOP GEAR is the best show those guys crack me up! There was a Top Gear marathon on yesterday I watched that show for like 4 hours all I can say is those guys are crazy. I wish I would have saw the CLK63 test drive.

That was a really good piece on the black series. The new season has been great so far

However I do wish Stig took it around the test track; I wanted to see what its time would be.

http://www.bcopping.com/tg if you want to download the episode, takes about 20 mins, fantastic quality

or

ninjavideo.net, you can probably find it on the homepage or the tv shows section, open the ninjavideo helper and then you can watch, takes about 5 seconds to buffer, also dvd quality.

Awesome episode, the CLK Black test drive was awe inspiring, I'm hoping I get into law school and make some decent coin, so one day I can drive that beast.
