ARE YOU DOWN WITH THA BROWN???
lol... nah, is it on now?
they always fine a dude who is a nerd or a chick that is hot and doesnt even know where a motor is in a car.. i wish they would get a cool ass host for shows like that , someone that actually knows their stuff... i didnt catch the show but im sure ill see it sooner or later.
:boobies:
it would be cool if they had those 2 brothers do it the twins i always forget thier names.Originally Posted by Spyder Man
to get a free car
yeah, but you know... well... yeah, that would suck.
damn it sux that we dont have the speed channel.
when does it come on?
its on right now
its gay as shit...they are over dramatising it...its like a fast and the furious reality show...
LAME!!!!
^^this is true
I thought it was cool.
They had fast cars, that where fucking with each other, sand bagging and what not.
it was cool to see.
Well, since I work for the Speed Channel, I'll say this... I think its a RAD idea.
I haven't gotten to see the show yet because of my schedule, but in my dad's day, people would race for pinks. you lost, tough shit.
Cool idea, but I totally agree that too often they put LA people in where Car people shoudl be.
Let's hope that this is how I'll get to be in front of the camera full time...since I am confident in my vehicular knowledge

when was your dads day ? my dad used to mess around racing (he had a 69 camaro ssrs) but he never talked about racing for "pinks"
It was ok. I wish they would put up the times and have better camera angles so we can see the action a little better. The zoom out to the starting line to the zoom in of the finish is kinda whack. I'd like to see some slo mo replays or something like that. The host is trying a bit too hard to seem Mr. Macho car guy when it's obvious he's not.
The idea behind the show is cool because you find yourself rooting for one or the other, but they need a little better execution IMO. I do like all the shit talking and BS'ing. That's kinda cool. I like how they let you listen in and text everything they whisper. Ole boy in the Formula had a cheater N2O setup that somehow was hidden in the headlights. It was cool to know that.
I liked it alot.
When we did street race years back, there'd be 50+ cars there, (150-200 people) and people act juct like those guys. There are a FEW guys here that were there back then...(Marshall!) I thought it was quite authentic with the sand baggin what you have , until you run theory. " My car is stock w/ a 50 shot...".BS.
The N20 in the H/L switch is a common F body and VW trick, its the power for the solenoids as well as H/Ls.
The losin car was MAYBE a mid 12 car, the dude in the green car had a set up my buddy has very similar in his F body, he does 10.90s and like him lifts the wheels on the bottle at launch. (3rd run)

It was better than I thought. Not perfect, over dramatized, but better that watching F&F.

It was alright, watch this become the next trend. People will be racing on the street for pinks, then when someone doesn't want to give their car up there will be getting shot, etc.
The clis that we've run for Promo's look better than the part of the show I caught last night...
I don'tknow who won, but I'd guess that kid lost his 2000 formula if I didn't knwo any better.
I though originally it would be just run your ass off, who ever won took the other cars, bt the "negotiation" sid eof it seems like a little much.
Oh well, cool idea. We'l see how the ratings turn out.
The ones comign up where the race motorcycles and go carts look sweet.
