Here's a pic of car football being played right there in front of me. Live. With Hamster, Slow and Clarkson actually right over there, look, right there!

And the Stig, too... Today's line was ''Some say... That he has a tattoo of his face, on his face. And that his anus smells of pineapple...''

The stunts were good, even if I have to admit I saw better. But it was a really small court so you can't blame them. And hey, drifting powersliding Focus ST's on a sticky handball court is no easy feat. And women dancing with fire is always a plus. There were also a Mad Max-ed out 930 and Ford Capri.

And a man on a bicycle jumping on/around/between two flatbed Suzuki Supercarry's or whatever they were. And another man jumping over some go-karts and a Dodge Viper ACR.

And Imprezas on fire, doing donuts.

And the boys racing in cars smaller than the P45, and scooter-chariot racing.

And a drifting top gear studio.

My favorite bit was the football. They really have played it right there, and you can't fake that. And it lasted a good 10-15 minutes. I really enjoyed it. The Stig played for Croatia!

The jokes were pre-written, for some Croatian sucking up for good measure. Like mentioning the Yugo and our lovely nature. I didn't mind it, you can't expect to get spontaneous reactions to something they've experienced dozens of times.

For me as a fan, the show was about seeing these guys live, you really do get a rush seeing them in person, feets from you. It doesn't hurt that it was quite a spectacle, either...
