No one I know likes it, no one on here likes it. I believe some of the TG team lurk on here so let's give them some ideas of what we could have instead.

Did you not see the interview with clarkson and wilman? Apparently it's the most popular part of the show. It isn't going anywhere. I like it. No one I know likes it, no one on here likes it. I believe some of the TG team lurk on here so let's give them some ideas of what we could have instead.

Replace it with how to inflate your tyres correctly. I can see that being a winner.
The times for SIARC have become almost irrelevant now though. Lost on the board as there are so many.
I think a segment with a 'star' should stay. But maybe have a feature on the stars own garage, 'star in their own car'. This way you'd probably get more genuine petrolheads on. Being interviewed about their cars, taking one of their cars round the track maybe. Something along those lines.
Though I'm sure some of the stars (the likes of Jay Leno, or JK) would need an entire series, not ten minutes!

king boringThat or don't have it on every week, just use it every now and again.
I echo the sentiment here too, get proper petrol heads on, not just whoever is around and plugging some film, tv or book that no one gives a damn about. Even Clarkson struggles sometimes to find anything interesting about them. Then the old, so what car do you drive? "Oh, a Prius, yes I'm a tree hugging enviromentalist with zero interest in anything fast (anti-social) and non fuel efficient (aka fun)."

I wouldn't be too bothered if it wasn't there, although i know they'll never get rid of it - plus i reckon it would reduce the amount of audience as a good proportion will be there to see a celebrity (and i don't mean Hammond!).
They should never have changed the car though. They should still have the Liana (i know they still have it for F1 drivers) for everyone. Simply because the times don't mean anything to anyone now and the that Chevrolet and the current Kia are just crap to watch, perhaps as they don't look as comical as that bowler-hat Suzuki going round a track!
They'll never get rid of the SIARPC though, sorry.
