Shame it kept switching between 2 different trucks all episode (watch the mirrors), but at least it took overall victory and they didn't make the 'prize for winning' driving the Bently just to make some excuse as to why Tanner instead of Adam drove it.


And on the BBC vs US, people have to realize though they share a name they are still 2 different shows with different progress time under their belts and different demographics. Yes US has some (many) 'rip off' ideas of the parent BBC show but BBC has been getting to the point it's just ripping itself off as well (and honestly has become kinda stale to me personally lately. Though I hope it proves me wrong)

I noticed at the end during the race w/ the snow boarder they used a different takes. If you watch the snow on the back of the trunk you will see it disappears and reappears.

I was disappointed with the way they put the Blazer up against the other two vehicles without first making sure that the 4 wheel drive was working correctly. The Subaru Legacy was running full time AWD and then at the end, Tanner Foust was running studs in the tires of his Nissan 300ZX. I'm thinking that the Blazers performance in the snow would have surprised a lot of viewers if the producers hadn't set out to make it appear to be the joke out of the three vehicles.
