TOP GEAR!!!

Saturday the 5th of March Phil and I went to the Top Gear live show at the Brisbane entertainment centre. It was the present I gave Phil for his birthday.

We found our seats in the stadium and a few minutes later the lights went out. Every one thought the show started but actually it was just a live advertisement for Shell V Power. A Ford Transit van arrived on the stage and stopped to get gas. Then suddenly, the front of the van goes up and a little car comes out the van and did some drifting. In the end they said "Bring out the best performance in your car"...
I found a video of a previous show that was very similar: click on Promo Shell V Power

Then Jeremy Clarkson and and James May did their into: intro Clarkson and May
They didn't take little Hammond with them, but they had one of the presenters of the Australian Top Gear.

They showed a little movie of the new Stig: Top Gear's top secret Stig Farm So funny!!!

My favourite part of the show was where 4 cars drove synchronically and did some drifting and some other nice trics. You can see this part here: Movie of my favourite part!

There was also a challenge in the live show: each presenter had to build a car with electrical appliance that one could find a house. THe Australian guy used an Iron Board and an Iron. James used washing mashines and Jeremy used 12 blenders to imitate his V12 engine. Then they had to do a race. Jeremy took the lead... however, he was using a power cord that was not long enough for the whole challenge so he stopped moving... THe Australian presenter won and Captain Slow ended second.

There was also a part where all the people could vote on cars if they like it or not. 

In another part 2 cars were drifting around a  flamethrower girl: Cars and Flames

ANother funny part was a soccer game with cars: Australia against England. In previous shows they used real good cars, but the the factories didn't like that their cars were used for the soccer game so now they used reliant 3 wheel cars. You can see some parts here:  Car soccer

There was much more (motorbike stunts, more drifting, show of new cars, ...)! We enjoyed the show a lot! It was so funny and we saw some nice stunts!
