why did this become a thread about bit torrent and video codecs? how about the show? top gear is a freaking awesome show!!! awesome awesome. i try to download every episode i can...
im watching this new one right now ... and when i saw the promo at the start about cheap porsches i had to hop onto rennlist and see what you guys were cooking about it , but all i find is a bt/divx thread anyway.. awesome show.. cant wait to see what they did with the porsches.

btw anyone seen the fith gear episode about the 80s where tiff says the 944 is his favorite car of the 80s?

Sorry about the bit torrent thread, maybe we should start another one...

Yeah great show, I loved this one, I think the white spoiler on the white car was HOT! I may try that on like a track car some day. Anyone want to go into business with me making coffee tables out of 944 engines?

No they're definetely not all this good.. But they're usually worth downloading or watch.. Much better than alot of other things that are on.

Of course it ended up being a codec/bittorrent thread, this is the technical forum! That said, the episode is great, although I'd like more of the cars, less of the personalities.

Click that link and select a source in the US. Install that using the default settings and itll let you play XVid format files. I cant remember for sure if that top gear one is an xvid or not, but I think it is.
Why would you even comment on the OS someone chooses to use ??, personally I think PC's are **** and I would not been seen dead with one but you don't here me jawin about it.

The best thing was the furniture handle on the 944's door. And seeing the look on the judge's face.. this was the best idea they ever had. Only ****ty part is that Jeremy just turned a car into a damn living room piece....
