Maybe, but until then, the show sucks.
You keep changing your argument. You said at fist who the hell would race a helicopter against a car, that's so stupid. So I tell you how the original Top Gear did the same exact thing and many similar "stupid" chases which is where the U.S. version got the idea from. And you know what, all of them were just as unbelievable as the U.S. version. I mean, you really think that the Lotus could "hide" under the Apache without them knowing? There was also a special where a Evo was trying to outrun a tank. If the tank really wanted it would have toasted the Evo.

So after calling those types of races dumb, you change your story to "well the UK version must be better!". No shit it's gonna be better. They had 15 seasons to hone their formula. The U.S. version just started and these host have never worked together before.

I suggest before you open your mouth and make wild assumptions you go watch some old season one episodes of Top Gear UK when they had 15 people in the studio, a fat bloke, and a black Stig. It sucked pretty bad back then too.
