Default Top Gear - Back on Sunday. Don't forget!

Went to see the filming on Wednesday, Awesome!

Only 7 episodes in this series but it looks good.

On the show Sunday:

Ferrari FXX round the track
Lotus Evora
A race from London to Edin set in 1949.

I'm not going to say any more because it will spoil it but there is a big surprise halfway through which was brilliant.

I've been on the list since the second series or somewhere about then.

I got mine through a guy in work who got them through someone he knows at the BBC. His wife couldn't make it so unfort I had to make up the numbers...

I owe him big time now..

though it was funny, I was not really inspired by the race, I mean, why would I be interested in watching and old car race and old (design) train and an old bike? - all those things were before my time and I didn't get excited by them at all.

but the FXX - OMG that was the nuts!
Ferrari should put that out for the next GP

Its because to watch bbc tv you have to be a uk citizen. As we have to pay for a tv license. Which pays for the bbc's services so if they let people from other countrys watch it they would sort of be getting it for free.
