The FinalGear.com Forums

Posted November 3rd, 2009 at 22:53 by TechZ in FG.com Forums
Yes FinalGear devotees, we not only have this (now rather dated *hint hint Viper*) homepage, we also have forums!
Chock full of threads and posts by others like YOU making the site a very handy resource. We have sections on Fifth Gear (RIP), Top Gear and a few other interesting shows. Not to mention all the shows that the hosts do when they aren’t making episodes of some our very favourite series. Heard a tune in one of the episodes you really like? We have a section on that too!
Even with so many (expected) sections, we have threads on food, entertainment and tons more, guaranteed to waste your semi-precious time from work or home or simply taking the train (wtf?) to work.
A lot of you already know about the forums, but you’d be surprised as to how many don’t, so those of you who don’t have no excuse not to sign up.

James May Does Q&A On Twitter

Posted November 3rd, 2009 at 09:23 by Viper007Bond in James May, Top Gear
James May did a Q&A session via his book publisher and Twitter yesterday. I thought you might find it interesting:
Q: RT @TopGearBabe: With so many fabulous adventures under his belt so far… are there any achievable dreams left unfulfilled for James?
A: Oh god, yes. I’d like to go to the Moon and I’d like to be able to make a risotto.
Q: RT @beckstar2: please ask James May what book he would take to a desert island
A: The Haynes Manual for the Honda CB 754
Q: RT @ChicklitBlog: If you could put a car into a time capsule for future generations to marvel at, which would it be and why?
A: Crikey, that’s a good question. I think the Ford Escort Mark 1, it’s what cars are meant to be.
Q: RT @maxtortheone: Please ask James May what impressions [removed due to spoilers, see forums for question] left him when he visited a couple of months ago!
A: It was much prettier than we expected, a very hospitable country. Lots of dogs.
Q: RT @LindenChase: What did James think of [removed] (where he’s just been filming with TopGear)? How bad was his vertigo?
A: The thing I remember most about [removed] is the dust, I don’t like dust. It gets in the air vents.
A: My vertigo is pretty bad everywhere, even up a 5 storey building, so in parts of [removed] it was very bad.
Q: RT @Intheskieswith: Does James May have a favourite novel or author?
A: When I was 18 I read Free Fall by William Golding and thought ‘this is about me, it’s going to change my life’ but that’s probably rubbish
A: I also like Cecil Lewis’s Sagittarius Rising. If you want something erudite and easy to read, Car Fever is an excellent book.

Jeremy Clarkson’s latest DVD Duel came out today and is now on sale in the UK. I assume it will be on sale here in the US at a later date.
