I'll say this, the show does not want you to sell the car back.Quote:

Thank youQuote:

They called us and asked us to be on the show in Valdosta I guess it was. I was like sure, do I get to pick who I run against and they were like no way! I wanted a grudge match but they said they have to oick who you run against and I'm not willing to possibly loose my Evo to someone I don't know :)

they "try" to match cars by the times they run though.....

I don't watch the show, let alone brag about being on it. Later, QD.
It wasn't really a brag since it involves many local people. :rolleyes:Quote:

Just for the record, Rich is a good guy... he's super intense and he's super proud of what he's done and he has lots of ideas about anything.....
I for one can attest that who you are on TV isn't always who you are at home. It's just a cool way to earn a living....
congrats on being part of the show. I'm damn glad to be a part of the network so it's really fun when other people get the chance to.
Rut
It would definately be fun! And I understand their reasoning behind not wanting us to pick our competition...I just ain't into loosing my damn $50K Evo to some fucking Mustang! I'd have to have a detonation button on it before I gave it to them :DQuote:

chris

TV coverage can be fun, and then it can be disappointing, depending...People can awesome when you are down or be very critical. And we all tend to remember 1 negative comment over the 5000 positive... but that is just part of it
The show airing has been moved to the 20th of September:
they keep moving it not sure why and i want to know:)
But to check the listings or who is racing.... you can go to this link
http://www.speedtv.com/pinks/schedule.php
Look at the date for wednesday at 9:30pm i.e. september 20th. put your mouse over "Gateway" and it will tell you who is racing that night.
The rules have changed a bit, but i recommend NOT risking your own car but work on getting sponsors... they get tons or advertising so in the long run it is worth it to them....Quote:

It was about a group of people that got together with nothing, busted their asses and in 6 weeks acquired 7 sponsors, all the parts to build a car, built a 9 second car then on top of that taught me(a very inexperienced driver) how to drive in about 3 days. Needless to say i still do not clasify myself anywhere near experienced in racing, it is just a hobby that i love so i can enjoy hangin out with friends. My little accomplishments are more personal and not looking to get anything out of it but maybe better my times and understand cars a little more. Being a part of the show was an experience and overwhelming, but something i will never forget being a part of...racing/cars are not a career for me but a hobby. so i take it for what it is and respect those that have it as a career and have a ton more experience in it than I do.Quote:
