I'll give it a chance. The three hosts need some work to get their on-air personas going. Would be nice to know who they are. Seemed like a bunch of yahoos to me. One of the things that makes the UK version kinda cool is the ages of the hosts spans a couple of decades.
The Viper and helicopter part was lame. Clarkson did the same kind of things on the UK version. Yes, combat aircraft can beat cars. Duh! And the point is???
I'd rather they'd done something with the Viper against a real Cobra or against a couple of Cobra replicars from Superformance and Factory Five.
The Lambo segment was the best part.
Having Buzz Aldrin was fun, and that he had a Sonnett was cool. But I've driven one of those "zukis and he wasn't even trying hard. He left at least 5 seconds on the table.
I have hopes for this show, so will tune in again.
