Fanboi favorite Top Gear kickstarts its 13th season with a weeklong giveaway.
As all you serious gearheads know, Season 13 is where the Stig outs his mystery mug. Fans can watch the buildup in Seasons 11th and 12th DVDs which go on sale starting Tuesday, January 12th. Already BBC America is accepting pre-orders here.
But that’s not all. From the 12th through the 15th, BBC America will be hosting the Top Gear giveaway contest. Prize for some lucky boyo not only includes said DVDs but other Top Gear items as well. (Unfortunately, we can’t quality.)
That’s okay, though. BBC America and Top Gear are making it up, from our perspective, with a sneak peak of the Season 13 opening before its January 25th debut. Watch for our future review!
Finally, get comfy with your iTunes and popcorn. Top Gear is invading our favorite Apple app by offering Season 13 episodes for download. Now you’ll never have an excuse not to watch and listen to Richard Hammond, James May, and, of course, Jeremy Clarkson’s famous uh, wit.
