Well put Ainar - without wanting to sound like an "the old days were the best" fogey, the early TG was the best. No egos, far less OTT tomfoolery, and the principal focus was the cars, with some fun thrown in.
Now milking a formula past its sell by date and pandering to egos and $$$, so not for me.
