Holy shit of the day

This is why is sucks that Fifth gear is being canceled. Who else is suppose to answer the everyday quesions like "What compact car gives me the best value for my money" or "Can I drive a Toyota Aygo upside down inside a giant steel loop?"



I don't think I ever called it a loop-the-loop, maybe my car loop way generic? "Fantastic upside down car track enjoyment polymer device" has a much better ring to it. Either way, this is pretty crazy seeing it in full-size. Jockstraps off to you, stunt guy.

Update: Apparently it's the Toyota Aygo as some internet bodybuilder fashion model tough guy has pointed out. Some guys just have all the luck.

Fifth Gear circles the drain



It looks like the UKs second best car show is going the way of the... canceled according to Tiff's recent twitter post (I can't bring myself to call it a tweet).

While it's not as entertaining as that other car show, I do think Fifth Gear was a quality program that had some great moments. The Jason/Tiff dogfights were usually a good show and Johnny is a miser after my own heart (the bit about the french factory worker who uses the over-hand smoking technique cracked me up).

Best of luck to the potentially disbanded cast. Hire me on your next show, broskis!
