Also, the world of monster trucks has seen its share of backflips. Cars, however, are not thought of as proper tools for being flung…

    On of the things that I think most impresses about Top Gear is the production values. The cinematography, sound and music, and location choices, all conspire to create automotive ballets that are stirring and sometimes heart stopping in the majesty of those element’s combined impact.
