Those tracks are somewhat common here. The ones on that car appeared to be not near as good as the ones they run here.

My 17 year old daughter, who has no interest in cars loves the show, and has started watching the original as well.

I watched it last night. Exact same formula as the other crazy trips. Some funny stuff, and the same stupid stuff. I liked it.

Sent this to a friend who’s brand new caterham 360 (also orange) just broke down on him in the middle of a road trip up the PCH.

The Grand Tour has been wonderful thus far. Sad to see them take down the tent, but their specials have been just as mesmerizing. The Mongolian adventure was particularly enjoyable for some reason for me.

They may bicker and get upset at each other from time to time on the show, but their chemistry and friendship is evident. They've tried to replicate that multiple times on multiple shows -- but you can't beat Clarkson, Hammond, and May.

Looking forward to watching their latest adventure (Massive Hunt) this weekend!

Watched it last night, typical GT which is to say amusing. I enjoyed it.

For anyone who hasn’t sampled some of their other individual shows I would highly recommend James May Our Man In Japan. Very entertaining and informative.

Great show. My biased support was for the Caterham. My orange Super 7
