Bruno Senna in a Nissan GTR v 911 Turbo drive off

Fifth gear isnt too bad, people moan but it really isnt that bad !

Top Gear is the daddy tho :)
 
I really enjoyed the last episode of 5th Gear, it really was the best 'car' program I have seen in ages. I think the last series was a big improvement on the previous drivel (Tim Lovejoy largely to blame for that), and this one has continued to improve. The content of last weeks episode was huge, it justed seem to keep on going!

From memory:

VB doing the Focus St vs Astra VXR
Bruno Senna doing 911 Turbo vs GTR (awesome clip)
Tiff and Plato raging the M3 and Lexus ISF against each other (funny to see Plato looking terrified) and then again with some totty onboard :)
Tom in the Dodge Challenger
Tom in Subaru 4wd vs Discovery
VB at the Colin McRae tribute
Jason Plato and Two Jag's in Racing Jag
 
I quite enjoyed that.

Bruno also seems like a nice down to earth kinda guy. Which was good to see.

The nissan is a beast
 
I quite enjoyed the article above. I don't really like the muppet presenters on Fifth Gear tho. The old guard (Tiff, Quentin) just embarassing although I don't doubt Tiff can drive a bit. The new guard- Vicky is OK but the lads are just complete ***** from the episodes I've seen. I just find them annoying and the production has always been playing catch up to top gear. Perhaps things will improve. It's always good to have more than one motoring show that's worth watching if only to keep top gear on their toes. I'm not sure about this new "Top Gear Live" concept.
 
I'm sure Bruno also did the car park feature in the show that was on Sky 1 (think it was Vroom Vroom) - that was total cack as a car show, but the way he drove up a multi-story car park at speed was impressive.
 
That wasn't too bad for 5th gear, probably the best thing I've seen them do for a long while.
And none of the 5th Gear presenters were involved, funny that ;)
 
Bruno is a nice guy, down to earth, and fairly quick.

Shame he was on the receiving end of some FIA stupidity at Spa, which has probably cost him a seat in F1 next season at least.
