I watch it too. There are some really honorable racers on the show and there's the whiny little bitches. Heads up racers are the best! It was tough to see that dude with the blown alcohol Nova give up his ride cleanly to the rocket Corvette. The Nova dude relyed on his starts but the Vette was faster.
You couldn't get me to race for pink slips. I stress out just watching the show. But watching some whiny bastard lose is really cool.

I assumed everyone had heard of it. Pinks is a show on speedvision, were two people put up the title to there car in a 3 out of 5 or 2 out of 3 race. Loose the race loose your ride. You can negotiate for car lengths and power adders. 1 stage, 2stage, no nitrous.

Blue you are right that dude had that Nova for 8 years. I saw some guy whining about loosing a 90 cutlass 4 door front wheel drive.

I watch every time I can. I like the fast cars or bikes, these guys have alot at stake.

thanks guys i appreciate it the truth comes out the show was suppose to give us a race with a high 10 low 11 sec car it was a setup from the begining i know i cant drive the best it was my first time driving the car, but if yhou think we are stupid ricers than that is fine whatever what car did you have on the show i did it to have fun we raced for 300 dollars i got my car back and it was over we put on a good show. For the record the same setup is in my hatch on 17psi on pump gas with my nondriving ass went a 11.3 @ 127 on my second pass. So keep talking shit atleast my car made it all 5 passes without braking.


hey luvnit, Here's the link to the video. It's funny as shit! He needs 20 car lenths :lol: :lol:

I read on the website that they're in a better position to match up racers with equally competitive rides. This will help in eliminating lengths and more of a heads up situation.
That Civic / Pontiac race was really mis-matched. If i were the Pontiac guy and i won a Civic ricer in a race, i would have to think that i have no use for such a vehicle. 300 dollars sounds like it covered the cost to spend the day racing something and getting on TV. I think he took pity on the novice ricer boy because he was totally outgunned.
On a earlier episode, a guy lost his white Monte Carlo to the guys with the orange Camaro. The Camaro crew gave him his ride back on camera. Once you win someone elses ride, it's yours to do with as you please.

That same Camaro guy won the red Nova and kept it. I heard he is from Dallas. Texas. He even said on the show i'm keeping the Nova. The guy in the monte gave them back one race were the Camaro guy jump the gun and then stopped.

Yep, the RX-7 won. It turns out that the CRX had a dummy NOS system on it. They only used it to negotiate. Lengths instead of the bottle. That was pretty smart but in the end it didn't do them any good.
