    Top Gear Guys

    There are no funnier car guys then these three. They also have pretty good taste in cars and I most enjoy how much they shit on modern BMW styling.

    3rd, but not last would be Steve McQueen.  Raced professionally, great taste in cars and motorcycles, and was all around a bad-ass guy.  Doing your own car/motorcycle stunts in a movie = ice cold.

        Patrick Dempsey has got to be on the list.  I wanted to hate this guy then I met him at ALMS last summer.  He spent a good 15 minutes on Friday night just shooting the shit with me and some friends after we saw him walking through the pits.  He was genuinely nice and is a car guy through and through.  And he daily's a 911 GT3 RS...

        I highly recommend watching the Road to Le Mans series that he had last summer.

            I've met Earl and I'd have to say he's about on par with Patrick Dempsey!

            After we got all set up at Road America I went and walked around the pits with 2 of my buddies right as the sun was setting and we happened to see Patrick Dempsey just walking around.  I said Hi and asked if we could take a picture and he came over and shot the shit with us about racing movies, beer, cars, etc.  One of my friends told him we were up for my bachelor party and the jokes just started rolling in.  He's the kinda guy you'd go get a beer with.

                    As we all know, he was letting someone else slip his whip.    Bad things always happen when you let someone slip your whip. 
                    I stalled Kaisers car in an intersection and kept reaching for the fan switch to get the car started. 

                    (perhaps If the fan blows hard enough it will start turning the engine?!?!?!?)

                      Although he is not my favorite, Jeff Dunham has a good crop of cars. He even has a real batmobile. He won't tell anyone what he paid for it but he had it made street legal and had an LSx dropped in.

                      You also can't forget the Achmed hotrod. (The mouth moves with the throttle and the roof is chopped for your heads to stick through)
