CLASSIC TV: Top Gear
It's crazy antics like this that makes Top Gear one of the best shows today.
Every gear head/petrol head out there knows what the BBC show Top Gear is all about – 3 crazy, funny, car fanatical middle aged men were basically given a tv show to do, well, whatever the hell they want.
The three main hosts are Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. Although their dress and hairstyle selection is questionable, they are on point with everything that comes to the automotive world.
Clarkson, Hammond and May. Would you trust these guys with your sports exotic? Me neither.
They also have their tame race driver, The Stig, who doesn’t speak a word yet drives cars with the utmost precision and accuracy.

They’ve done all of that and more.

Done? Great. For more information on the show, you can visit their official website here. To view some video clips without going on the “telly”, check out their channel on youtube.com.
Can’t wait? View the sample below.

Pour into a martini glass rimmed with explosives and have a supermodel serve for all your friends to enjoy.
