Please note: This is your one and only warning to set your DVR. You have until Monday, November 28, at 8:00 pm. That’s when BBC America will air the world premiere of the newest Top Gear](http://www.autoblog.com/tag/top+gear/) spin-off: Top Gear Top 40.

Now we might normally be a bit critical of a television series that advertises itself as a greatest hits pastiche. In some ways, it kind of reminds us of those terrible sitcom episodes they used to slap together all the time back in the '80s, with characters “remembering” bits from old episodes. But this is different. This is Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond doing what they do best. This is Top Gear.

How can you not get excited about re-watching clips like “Ferrari Daytona vs. Powerboat” and “Commie Cars” from Season 12? Or “*Top Gear *vs. Germans” from Season 11? Or “Veyron vs. Eurofighter” from Season 10?

Trust us, we’ve peeked at the 40 segments the show plans to feature, and nobody should be disappointed. In fact, the list of 40 clips comes from voting suggestions made by the general public, so there’s even less reason to fear. Read the entire press release after the jump.Continue reading Top Gear’s Top 40 series headed for your TV, America
