Thumbs up 5th Gear on Speed Channel Monday's at 6pm

Anyone catch Fifth Gear on Speed last night? They did a review of the Lamborghini Murciealago and a Alfa Romeo 156. They also played episodes back to back.

You can watch Fifth Gear on Speed Channel every Monday from 6-7pm. Don't miss it.

I saw the 2 episodes at 10PM. The 156 is hot. The girl was freaking that Saxo driver out when she was driving his car. Haha. Teh Citroen C3 is garbage construction-wise.

Meh. Fifth Gear isn't that great. Now if BBC America gets Top Gear, then I'll be happy.

Top Gear pwns Fifth Gear.

Agreed, but the rest of the show doesn't compare to Top Gear.

No question. I've even contemplated the $45+ for a years subscription to Top Gear magazine. Clarkson and the other guy (the guy that tested the TVR Tuscan, can't emember his name) are rediculously good drivers.

That was Tiff back in the day. Now Tiff Needell Has his own show called Fifth Gear.

No ****? Shows what I know. I'm still sticking to Top Gear as the premier car mag/show.

I used to worship Tiff, and I have a HUGE thing for Vix Henderson, but for some reason fifth gear just sucks...has a lot to do with that Scot they use as the third reviewer. He's terrible. I download episodes of Top Gear every time a new one is ripped. It really is the best car show ever. The files are huge, and I'd be willing to burn them onto CD for Bay Area fans. Just let me know.

Edit: thanks for the tip though, 5thG is definately worth TiVOing

Yes, Top Gear is greater than all car review television shows I have watched, being that I have only seen video clips of it. But since we now get Fifth Gear on TV, and not Top Gear, we will have to make do with what we have.

And it takes air time away from NASCRAP! Thank god.

Seriously...I loved Speedvision before it got bought out and turned into the 24 hour nascar channel. I really cant decide what I hate more, NASCAR or baseball. I think its NASCAR, because I dont really watch any channels that have airtime taken up by baseball.

If you've only seen clips, I highly reccomend you download "Another BitTorrent Client" and go to the site I posted. They have torrent links to tons of full length episodes that are a real joy to watch.

I can't agree with you more. I hate both more than anything. I would rather turn off the TV then have to watch baseball or NASCAR.

What Speed needs to cover is JGTC. It's really that simple.
