Top Gear, last night, had a segment of a "Grandma Doughnut Challenge." They had 6 elderly women get in the S2000 with a professional driver, who instructed them on how to properly perform a doughnut. I was quite surprised by a few of them, as they proceeded to engulf the car in smoke--round and round they went, as smoke bellowed out from the tires. Who says 70 y/o women can't drive?! Thought it was pretty funny.

 

i saw it, its a really old episode. but it was funny the way they looked like they were bout to fly out of the car.

 

i have been watching top gear for a while by dowblaoding the episodes.

i went without cable for four years and then i just got it the other day, and to my suprise top gearcomes on discovery channel, or whatever.

the only problem, it doesnt seem quite the same. where that former racecar driver, needles or whatever they call him, and wheres the girl?

did they change the shows format, or is there an american and english version?

whats the deal?

 

American version and British version. Also intertwines with 5th Gear.

 

my lil bro was telling me about that when i got home from work the other night, he said they were doing pretty damn good too, i wish my grandma could take me drifting and then bake some cookies afterwards.

 

Maybe this would make a good picture post. I'm thinking about teaching my mom to donut and post pics.

 

I saw that episode it was classic
my mom wants an S now LOL

 

i have seen it i love top gear best show
