Cool Top Gear USA casting audience members for pilot!

One of the scribes at Autofiends came across the application page for audience members to attend the taping of Top Gear USA's pilot episode, and if you're in the Los Angeles area and free this Saturday, July 26th, you can sign up here.

Adam Carolla is in the host seat, accompanied by rally racer and drifter extraordinaire, Tanner Foust, and -- God help us -- "TV construction guru Eric Stromer." According to the site, "Top Gear will feature irreverent humor and camaraderie, epic races, outrageous stunts and challenges, unique celebrity guest participation and eccentric methods of testing cars." Sounds like the proven formula is on its way.

Eh...I think they should just keep bringing the BBC version over here. I can only see a US network completely ******* everything up and then the BBC Top Gear making even more fun of us.

I really really enjoy the BBC version and will keep watching it even if there is a version here.

DON'T RUIN A GOOD THING!

I wonder if you can yell your opinion from your seat...

I'm sure they want obedient audience members.

NBC actually, they are going big league right away. Hopefully it is good, and they have their own version of the STIG.
