This is no drill. The History Channel will air the first ten episodes of an American version of everyone&#8217;s favorite car show this Fall. As you may recall, NBC took the first crack at producing a colonized version of <em>TG<\/em>, complete with hosts <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/12\/tanner-foust-moving-to-european-rallycross-championship-for-2010\/\">Tanner Foust<\/a>, Adam Carolla and Eric Stromer. For whatever reason, the project went to the dumpster, and we haven&#8217;t heard word one until now.<\/p>\n<p>It looks like Tanner Foust is still on board for The History Channel&#8217;s take on <em>Top Gear America<\/em>, but the two other hosts have been swapped for different talent. Foust will share the stage with Adam Ferrara &#8211; probably one of the funniest comedians working these days (seriously, hit the YouTubes) &#8211; and Rutledge Wood. Wood&#8217;s name will likely ring a bell with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/14\/kasey-kahne-leaving-petty-motorsports-likely-landing-at-hendric\/\">NASCAR<\/a> set. The guy&#8217;s been reporting on turning left since before they realized they were going in circles. <\/p>\n<p>Can The History Channel give the guys the space they need to do the <em>Top Gear<\/em> name justice? We hope so. For once, the talent appears to be there, and getting out from under piercing glare of NBC&#8217;s lawyers is bound to be a good thing too. Suddenly, we can&#8217;t wait for Fall to roll around. <\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/transmission.blogs.topgear.com\/2010\/04\/21\/topgear-usa-alive\/\">Top Gear<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/21\/breaking-top-gear-america-reborn\/\">BREAKING:<i>Top Gear America<\/i> reborn!<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 21 Apr 2010 09:24:00 EST.
