European Rotard's I need you to troll Top Gear!

How hard could it be to find the Dunsfold Aerodrome? I want you guys to troll hard! Need to find out when they are filming, and line the entrance till Jeremy Clarkson gives us a rotary special. You guys know it be bad ***. I mean they gave the History of Saab, but no love when the rotary was stopped... I feel that needs to be fixed.

Remember what Clarkson said about the Rx-7 vs. Mitsubishi 3000GT?


The old Fc vs 924


And not even Top Gear, but its the only thing the FB has...


So is there anyone up to it? Is there anyone who will let them take your can on the track? I think it be fun, and worth it.

Sounds like an interesting concept and I have a few things to suggest for it. First off, it would have to be an hour-long special with an epic journey. Also, demonstrating the inside operation of our engines, either with a model or an actual engine, should be at the beginning of the show too.

The Rotary Challenge: Buy a rotary car and see how it endures a number of challenges along the way to their first time at Sevenstock. The main idea is to understand what actually happens between bringing the car home after purchase and arriving at a national meet.

There are lots of clever ways to implementing these challenges and make them 'chain' together. One idea would be to use the change leftover from the purchase price to buy tools at Harbor Freight. The next one would be to replace the fuel pump, pre-filter and fuel filter using only the tools purchased in the previous challenge. The reward for this is a parts allowance for repairs.

By making each challenge build onto the previous ones, it illustrates the journey from new owner to experienced rotorhead in the best possible manner: experience. It also rewards creative thinking and hunting for parts in the rotary community.

Akagis_white_comet don't post anymore! You are at lucky 666 lol


Hell yeah do a cheap cheap car challenge, and have them end at Sevenstock. What £2,500 to get the car, and the left over goes to modifying the cars. Same basic thing as the Porsches, and Alfa Romeo challenges... but more rotary. lol

Top gear tend not to focus on one brand on there challenges plus they like to produ e a challenge that every man has thought about whilst trawling the classifieds " ohhh a sub 10k Supercar"

As for trolling them, yes it is filmed at the aforementioned airfield, I have been to the recordings twice, but the fact is as they arrive and leave + star. Security is mega tight.

During the interval of filming they give you a chance to have pictures , autographs, conversations etc so anyone who is going to this seasons filming could drop it in.

Next season is out in the summer, the program is filmed the Wednesday of the show week to keep things current.
