Winner of the Top Gear Season 10 DVDs Announced

Top Gear Season 10 DVD coverTwo weeks ago we started a contest for readers of Automoblog.net to win two copies of the new Top Gear Season 10 on DVD. All they had to do was come up with the best and most creative new challenge for the Top Gear guys to do. The best two entries win.

We got some really good ideas, and it was hard for us to choose just one winner, but here they are:

Samantha:

Being the way that the economy is, I would like to see Top Gear save some money and get some ‘not so good’ cars off the road. What the three hosts, and possibly the Stig as well, should be given 500 punds each to purchase a older car and enter into a demolition derby. It would Give Mr. May some retaliation towards the other two presenters. It is not about speed but who has purchased the best car and can last the longest. And it would make some good television.

Win a Saleen S302 Extreme Mustang

Saleen S302 Extreme

Pizza Hut and Rockstar Games are teaming up for the launch of the upcoming video game Midnight Club: Los Angeles for Xbox 360 and PS3. In what has to be one of the better giveaways I’ve seen, they’re handing out a $100K+ Saleen S302 Extreme. Yeah, that car you see above. I guess it’s the new game’s mascot car.

Wouldn’t mind winning this myself, but keep in mind the gift tax you’d have to pay if you win could buy you another pretty good car.

Sweepstakes are open from now until November 10th, 2008. Go to pizzahut.com to enter into the contest.

Also be sure to check out the game, and keep your eyes open here on Automoblog.net for a full review of the game once it’s out on October 21st. Continue Reading…
