Hook it up, my friend. Hook it up.

Hehe, you can buy some VCD and DVD on ebay although lately there are less than usual... and there is also a good website that provides VCDs... yg60 could give you the url since I don't remember it LMAO.

And to pass you something like 22 CD-Rs and 7 or 8 DVDs would be complicated

It's not fun, though. Who cares that a souped up Mitsubishi rally car takes on a Ferrari? It's like when people hollow old Sentra's out to their core, turbocharge them, NOS them, etc and then boast their 4 second Sentra's that can burn anything. Great. You're still only driving an street-illegal pile of crap that you couldn't even get hookers in (no seats).

The "problem" is that Tsukuba is not meant for supercars... it's not so strange to see an EVO faster than a Modena since the Ferrari has taller gears while the Lancer blisters through corners.. but when the battles are Suzuka.. or even at Fuji, No more luck for fast saloons

do you work for Best Motoring? lol

just one day...ONE DAY...i wanna see a Hachi Roku old 80s drifting Toyota BEAT an Enzo Ferrari. LMAO

Hehe

i would like my friend ! Being paid to push the cars on a track ... only St-anger has a better job

I think the Enzo vs the Toyota is for the next issue

Best Motoring ROCKS! I adore it! they reaÃ²Ã²y frive the cars HARD!look at Mr. Nakaya changing gear without lifting the accelerator, ao Dori Dori going sideway with everything under his hans, or Gan San, the "old man", he never gives up...the handling test, the battle, the analyse of the car...it's fantastic! I love it maybe more than Top Gear, yes...

I agree, I'm always downloading Top Gear and 5th Gear Video and loved watching them. I've downloaded a couple of Best Motoring video but never liked it. Don't know why, but it's my point of view

BTW, this is my first post, found this site couple months ago, and I absolutely loved this site!!

I love best motoring because they do what no one else does. It is obvious from watching that the guys in BM dont use the best lines, or have the best driving skills(at least when they are on camera) except a few, but their battles still give you a fair idea of the cars. Its entertaining and nothing else compares, although they are baised a lot of times its still one of the best shows out there.

i also lobe BM!!!
becaus they put soo many fast cars against other cars at the same time, so its more interesting than watching the stig doing laps, and specially how the "grandpa" drives! i love t how he drives as if nothing mattered.
btw tt do u have any BM vids where they test the subaru wrx sti? becuause i want to see that car perform againg their competition

Best Motoring has very good ideas for a show. But the thing is...the guy(who says stuff) sounds retarded in typical asian manner(im an asian)...like in overly enthusiastic asian way...which i hate

I've got a couple slightly older eps I might be able to put up in a while, but they are subititled and complete. They have an entire downhill run in each car just to determine how livable it is.

I like watching it because it puts a ton of cars in similar conditions. It really gets rid of a lot of variables like the even the presenters mood you can get from Top Gear and 5th gear.

I'm not saying all there is to a car is performance, but there usually a nice performance conclusion especially with repeat cars.
