Senna is an unknown quantity at this point
I like the review, as well as how it was down. He even had nice things to say about the 911 cars.

Why would you take a track-focused 911 and drift it round the streets of Los Angeles?
if you could, why not?

but I wonder why they didn't put it round a track or something

TGUSA needs to stop the silly comparisions and get down to the good stuff like this 2.RS review! I also wondered why the Stig didn't run it around the track?

Do they still do the Stig segments on TG America? Not sure if I've seen any this year.

They are obviously trying to change-up the format from the UK version somewhat and it's somewhat working, but more test-drive segments is really needed as opposed to these hour-long challenge segments.

Fun to watch...TG USA needs to shit can the other 2 hosts and just let Tanner drive. (should have made him the US Stig, then we wouldnt have to listen to him either)

Probably the best "power test" they have done in the series thus far. The closed LA streets was actually pretty cool!

Def. one of the better episodes... The 5k "Luxury Car" camparo was pretty funny. Pretty cool to see them shut down Downtown LA (at night) for that shoot - Def. a cool experience for Tanner I'm sure.

I agree it's getting better, but it really sucked the first season, and this season is only marginally better. Maybe it's due to my appreciating Adam Carolla's humor, but I still the The Car Show is much better than TG USA. TG UK > The Car Show > TG USA

I'm pretty sure they are. I think they ran something when the guys from Pawn Stars were on. Not sure though, don't quote me on this.
