Ep1.01 spectacular grand opening sequence has the 3 Mustangs driving in formation through loads of stuff - very spectacular![]() .. with soundtrack of the Hothouse Flowers (a largely forgotten and largely forgettable Irish 1990s indie band who were basically just a semi-skimmed rip-off of the Waterboys) playing I Can See Clearly Now but somehow it works.

I'm enjoying GT much more than TG. It's done better with more freedom, and is better thought out - so far the main features seem planned from an idea through to completion, rather than TG who often ran with an unfocussed idea with fingers crossed that it might go somewhere but it often dribbled into a stupid mess with no real direction. And wasn't funny, so they had to keep hamming it up to pretend it was hilarious. For GT they're nailing things much better, although the ep1.04 thing with the "environmental" Discoverys didn't work and the Jordan thing in ep 1.02 was over-extended. But perhaps the best thing is that they look as if they're enjoying themselves again - the banter's more natural, the one-liners are funny - and this makes much better viewing. Ep1.05 was the best thing they've done for a long long time. So it gets a ![]() -- Last edit: 2016-12-21 22:51:49 |

I've had a look at the results from the 2017 Hemberg hillclimb, and I managed to identify some of the cars here. https://www.bergrennen-hemberg.ch/fahrer/ranglisten/ Tatuus N.T07, ex-Formula Master. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatuus_N.T07 Peugeot 405 Mi16, maybe an ex-french Super Touring car, with these colours. But it might also be a replica. Reynard 93D, ex-Formula 3000. Reynard 97D, ex-Formula Nippon. |

2 eps so far of S3, and I'm enjoying it. They've dialled down the pointless stupidity but somehow made the banter funnier and more genuine. And they've ditched wasteful padding such as the celebrity waffle sessions, so the whole thing is now tauter and more focussed. Hope they keep it up. |

Excellent Jim Clark tribute in final 20 minutes of ep3.05. One slight quibble - Richard says that Jim had to do a rookies test before being allowed to start the 1965 Indy race (which he won). But he'd already raced there in 1963 (finished 2nd) and 1964 (retired). So did the rookie test story belong to 1963??? |

For reference - seen in S3 opening credits![]() Sierra RS500 Cosworth. D112 DEV was the first of 4 prototype RS500s and was unique for being wholly Ford built - the other 3 protos and the production run were built by Tickford. Some info; it is privately owned, not from Ford's heritage fleet, but is often used for magazine and media features. No doubt this will feature in a forthcoming S3 episode, so this comment can be transferred when it does. |
