Magny-Cours Cancelled, Dodge Challenger SRT-10, Aston One-77 Sold, Toyota Prius, Audi Mileage Marathon - 10/16/2008

If dodge puts a V10 in a challenger I will freak-out

CF: The ticket is not contestable. If the posted limit is 65, then a ticket is warranted. Just because everyone else is speeding doesn't mean you have the right to as well. [not innocent here, but just wanted to clarify] MattF: Please... I know you're a yankee, but it's "Aaaa-marillo" not "Ahhh-marillo". Good coverage though - I like your style. Even if you are a yankee.

I should take a trip to sema next year, that cuda that supramike showed is totally awsome!!! I never heard of it. or saw it. They should totally do it. Thats it, im getting the new A4 with a diesel. I was debating it, but that is ridiculous. Why get a prius, get an A3 diesel without the stupid expensive battery stack replacements. All electric is the way to go for the masses, but until battery technology advances, diesels will probably be the way and stay in the fold for a long time after gas runs out.

* TGIO - Thank God Its Over! The mileage marathon was a total insomniacs convention, not to mention waste of fuel. How about Hybrid Diesel? When an officer tries to pull a bogie like making a false claim, simply stay calm & politely ask: "Excuse me officer, may we kindly ask what article number is contrary to recording please? Thank you" He will then be forced to further dig his own grave, or come clean & say that actually its not illegal, but just makes him uncomfortable. This ticket is totally challengable according to the information you provided & would be tossed out of court. Please, do it to prevent someone else from getting violated. Viper Challenger! Oh God yes!!! What a way to go. These are the good old days. The muscle cars days are numbered & wouldnt it be nice to park one of these in your garage to give to your grandchildren? ,000 you can buy a real Testa Rossa!!!

Yo, your Audi segment is great. They must love your coverage of it. Way to go FLD. Did any of the other cAudis have have camera crews? And can you give us some of the final figures on the other Audi models? specifically did they run an A8L Diesel? So far they havent offerred that thing in the States.; I have no idea why. And, I can swear I heard that Highway Patrol officer say "Meow" when he was pulling JF out of the car....

Nice job on the Audi challenge. But, I just have one problem. Nothing was said about the other cars that were in the ride across America. How did the A4 and A3 fair with the speed and fuel used between stops? I get the speech about how we need to learn to accept clean diesels in the US, but wouldn't have hurt either to report how the other cars did. Just saying.

OMG does F1 not like french people that race better not go to another middle eastern country or i'll be seriously pissed off. there should be a rule that you must have a driver from your country so that we don't end up watching a desert rally, i'd also like to say this. If middle eastern countries do get into this, do u want to see 5 year olds towing a car off the track if it crashes (it might slow the race down).

great wrap up with the 30 second building shot. gripping.

challenger SRT10, hmmmmm i think the challenger would benefit a lil more if it was lighter and a lil more compact rather than just having more HP, dont get me wrong, i like the car, its kool and who does like more HP???? but what i'm getting at here is that the car would benefit more overall if it was a lighter and wasn't as big. i remember seeing at sema last year a modern take on the cuda that was based on the challenger, http://www.fast-autos.net/vehicles/Chrysler/2008/Concept_Cuda/ for those of u who dont know what i'm talking about, it a lil smaller than the challenger without losing that powerful muscle car presences. thats where dodge needs to go with the challenger. and c'n as i brought it up, i'm sad and surprised Chrysler didn't run with the idea. i mean its not like Chrysler is fast approaching the grave yard or anything {sarcasm} lastly Matt's the man, and alex, thank u for gracing us with ur presence, u look beautiful as always. good show.

Aston Martin's are hot, who cares if they arent the best at what they do, but they are just gorgeous!! Oh, hold on, who has been winning the 24hr leman GT1 class the last couple of years? At least at real racing they are the shliznic. Hopefully one day you could beat a Porsche on the road with an Aston...one day....maayyybe Wow, matt actually did a great job today. Im still recovering from the Jay Leno interview, but doing so much better. What happened with the smokes man? Dont relapse man, dont do it. How much is it per pack now? You could save that money for gas dude, almost two gallons per pack. Now thats bang for your buck.
