It actually was quite similar to the show.

Lots of banter, well rehearsed and contained many elements of the TV show including a challenge/race, some pretty slick driving and a game of car football ... it was good to see the Mariners score again (its been a while). Not so sure about having Steve the Pizza guy from TGA though, but s'pose it made it easy to include Aussie content (Ford vs. Holden, etc).

Disappointments: 15mins of ads at the start, some very difficult audience participation and the Stig finale was a little disjointed.
Believe post content at your own risk.

Thanks for the review. Not sure if I really wanted to see it or not.
Anyways, glad you had a good time Betty.

I went on Friday. Thought is was a great show. Important not to take it too seriously imo - its not Shakespearian theatre after all. Bit of a laugh, bikes and cars, tyre smoke and sliding and lots of loud explosions - what's not to like? [thumbsup]

I actually enjoyed it (and the lap dance from Jukie).....

Agree the adds at he start went on abit.

But I went along for some light entertainment and that's what I got. It was worth the $89 I paid...

Saw some cool cars doing cool things, the bikes in the ball of death and car football was the highlight.

I recon Postie bike football would be the go. We all get old postie bikes with the big ball and away we go...  [moto]

Would I go again... Yes.....  [thumbsup]

So I read this morning that the Ferrari 430's they were using for burnouts were not Ferrari's at all but Toyota MR2's.  ???
