Top Gear vs Red Necks

Sever · 03-15-2007, 07:02 AM

Found this whilst browsing through some Top Gear clips. They've pushed the envelope before but this time their challenge goes a little too far. It had me in stitches at the end.

Top Gear is a top notch English car program for those who don't know.

Got a link or something?

The BBC has stopped nuking things uploaded to YouTube, so the entirety of the hour-long episode should start here:

I think they reach the rednecks in segments 4 to 6(There are seven total.), it starts when they're camping and have to paint slogans on each others' cars.

I suggest watching the entire thing, though, because it is AWESOME.

Clarkson is a pompous ass but he's funny as hell anyway. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah Top Gear is a top notch program!

Make your own limo, make your own car-boat, classics.

Best ever was the indestructable Toyota Pickup truck...they put it on the roof of a building and blew the building up, and with a few minor tweaks the engine worked again !

Damn that Toyota was awesome.

Other favourites? Bugatti Veyron vs Cessna, the Reliant Robin Shuttle, Clarkson shooting cars apart with guns, that celebrity episode where they tried to see who could launch cars the farthest...

Oh, and the Convertible People Carrier episode! Having trouble finding that anywhere, though.

Check the uploader's profile for the other parts of this one. For some reason the sidebar doesn't show them

Great episode, most of the car-related stuff is boring, but the first bit and everything related to the tractors is great.

I don't think this thread would be complete without Hamster's record breaking, near-fatal car crash. I heard about this a while ago, but in Oz, Top Gear's a season or two behind the UK so this is the first that i'd seen exactly what happened and could appreciate how serious the crash actually was. They successfully manage to blend their Top Gear humour into an otherwise down-to-earth look at Hamster's own mortality.

It starts here with the crash occuring (after a little over-lapped mixing) in the second clip, here.
