John Salley or any person on the street has twice the knowledge as Matt Farah. Farah's opinions are biased and he talks #*@& about the cars he reviews before he even drives them. If your going to have a website and youtube channel performing car reviews, then you should give every car an honest shake.

The car has been fixed and Mike is happy now..I would do it again. And a special thanks to Hotchkis and H-Team for letting me be a part of this!...And yes you did see Matt get beat by my Stock Camaro SS Lol...!!

Stock my Ass!!..That was funny!!

Don – We’re glad you could be there for the track time and you got the airtime too! It was good for everyone involved. The show was cool! It was good to see you everyone on the show to help further promote the hobby.

Never watched the show before though, I thought it was alright. US Top Gear is better IMO.


I'm growing tired of Top Gear's silly and scripted challenges and dialogue. It's the same thing over and over and it's getting stale. It's obviously a better produced show, but they are losing my interest with the direction they are going with the show.

I've grown to appreciate the car show more because they actually talk about cars (not what old POS the hosts are going to pick for a challenge or some ridiculously scripted and edited "race"). I hope it lasts.

Yeah, I just love the cinematography of Top Gear, the UK one is way better though. This show seemed a little boring IMO.

Finally, a car show about only American muscle! The Camaro shined through! Hey Don, what size wheels and tires are you running on your car?
