Krzys Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 You've never liked them @Dave so I'm hardly surprised at your predicable comments about GT Awesome show I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 Lol I did like them a few years back when they actually put on a decent show but they just turned into assholes whose priority was about how many of the people of the country they were visiting they could insult and ridicule, forget about the cars. New show is the same only worse........so scripted its lost the chemistry between them that they used to have. From what ive read the second series they had planned has been canned.

Dave Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Both are now crap imo Tom. Not really any decent car shows now tbh, although car sos is quite good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 TBQH I much prefer channels like Mighty Car Mods, Speed Academy and TheDudeInBlue on YouTube nowadays, much more education and entertainment behind the content. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Been watching https://www.youtube.com/user/spdacademy on Youtube for about 5-6months since they were in their 30k subs now they're in the 100k's and their content is just getting better.

Dave Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Was speaking to paul (bladerider) and he had some interesting info on the show. They have recorded an episode in edinburgh where theyre driving a lambo and two other supercars. Paul had some guys in his taxi who had been working on the show and apparently most of the footage you see is fake (in his own words). The trio turn up around 10 or 11am and film for half an hour to an hour (in-car shots and a couple of footage peices from outside the cars) and then bugger off to their hotel to get drunk. And thats them done. The rest of the days shooting doesnt even have them in it, the footage you see is the cars being driven by "hired professional drivers" (the guyscin pauls taxi). In the shots it looks and sounds like theyre giving the cars beans around the city but they (the drivers) are explicitly told they must not go above 30 mph. So again some camera jiggery pokery. The drivers told paul that its great work though, and they each get paid around £500 to £600 for driving the cars for the day. Nice job but wonder how much the trio get for their half hours work? The mind boggles! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
