    Default Batlground got a TV show on FSN.

    We just filmed our first segment. It all happened rather quickly. It's going to be on FSN. For right now we are getting 3 segments on a show that already exists called Red Clay Net. The segment is called the Fast Life and the first show will air this Saturday a 2 pm. Most of us will be at Formula D and I think the TV show is coming with us. In June we will start filming a documentary series for the network. Filming will end in October. It's a show based on our lifestyle as shop owners and a race team. I'm excited at the prospect. I don't know how it's going to turn out since it has all come together so quickly, but I have high hopes. I have been working on putting a TV show together for about 4 years. It may be finally happening. I'll keep ya updated.

    Holla

    It's a basic cable channel. So most people get it. Right now it's mostly just sports, straight up sports coverage. They are trying to move into some "lifestyle" programming. If FOX likes the way the show is going it may move to the bigger network that Fox has.

    Either way, right now it's exposure. It shows in 5 million homes in just the south east. The show has just been picked up by the west division of FSN. Sponsors like that. It's a step in the right direction.

    I wouldn't bet on it. I wish. We have come to the consnsus around here that the Supra is going to take a while for time restraint purposes. It's going to have to happen little by little. Maybe in the off season. Right now we are just too crazy traveling and trying to work on the customers cars at the same time.

    I did quit. LOL! But it's not that serious. It's only really because we aren't taking any customers right now since drifting is the main thing going on for us. I don't need to be here to answer phones. I can write checks from the house and we are making e-mail appointments now and no walk-ins. I work on Drift Fury for the most part because that's what needs the attention right now. I will have to go back for the show when they want to film there, but they will be traveling with us to events.

    I'll have to pull out those old emails I saved where you promised me fortunes beyond belief if and when you got the TV show done, since I did write the proposal and all.
