I've had this in my head for a month now, and I don't think it should be that hard to do. Lemme Explain How I see this working.

Kinja'd!!!

First off, this would be more of a parody rather than a legit episode(duh!), therefore it wouldn't be called "Top Gear"; I call it: Top Jalop!

EDIT: Saabstory came up with a better title, it will now be called "Jalop Gear"!

Episode 1 would feature a mix of real world cars and Forza 4 cars structured like this:

Car Review-Challege Part1-News(possibly)-Challenge Part2-Forza Car Review and Hot Lap-Challenge Part3/Car Review2-End

The problem is that I need things: Cars, Cameras, people with video editing software and of course, two more people to be presenters! I can right now imagine the presenters being myself, Dwhite, and one other person. Anyone in Michigan or Ohio want to help? I think this would be a fun way to spend a summer!

Have some drifting 993 GT2 for reading!

That's actually a good idea.

I remember some guys using footage from Gran Turismo, and mix it with Jeremy's voice, and it's fun to watch!

For a few episodes but if you could come to Wisconsin it would be better.

I've been wanting to do this for a while. I'm in Ohio and I'm a big dude with a beard and lot's of plaid.

Are you across the lake or on top of Wisconsin?


Kinja'd!!! K-Roll-PorscheTamer > Vince-The Roadside Mechanic
05/19/2014 at 20:54

Kinja'd!!!1

Yes! We need to get more people on this! We need a camera crew


Kinja'd!!! Vince-The Roadside Mechanic > K-Roll-PorscheTamer

Ok I am in the southern part not to far away from Road America.

Kinja'd!!!0

Nor do I. The GoPros we can buy but a camera crew might be tough to find. Also we need a third person, Maybe Rotarylesslover?

That could work! I'm planning on going with a friend to visit her friend in Illinois sometime in June.

What if we delay production for a year to get a camera crew GoPros and sit down and write a few more episodes.

Hmm, we could do that. Might be smarter to do so.
