"Pinks" on Speed Channel
 

ok, so i just saw a few minutes of the dumbest things since the slow and the bi-curious.
the idea of this show pinks is that you race, if you lose 2 out of 3 you lose your car.
first problem is that the ass clowns from scandalous street racing are involved. i have their video, what a fake POS that turned out to be.
they have some guy act as a negotiator for teh race. when did this ever happen at a race track or street race?
then the decide on motor vs nitrous and the guy who is supposed to run on motor doesn't have to unhook his bottle. WTF???
one guy gets spotted 3 cars and they both jump the hit. then the host smacker says "this isn't a street race". ummm, then why are you negotiating the hit, the bottles, the tires, and a spot?
the ads made it sound like it was going to be a battle of muscle cars of some sort. i figured it woudl all be staged, now i know it is. cause there is no way anyone who took any pride at all in their car would deal with any of this **** for a race.[/rant]
at least they were in 4th gens. :)

damn, and from the commercials i was looking forward to catching an episode. now i might not bother :?

the commercial looked really cool. it looked like a total set up, but it looked like it could be a fun show with some old school muscle cars going at it.
i don't watch a lot of tv, especailly the speed channel cause it is all nascar.
seems like they don't have anyone around who knows what racing is anymore.

Old news.

It is crap.

No real street racer would get caught up in that glorified tv crap

Ask any racer, and real racer..........(dont feel like typing out rest)

i got to see 2 of the races last night and thought it was a pretty friggin gay show...didnt see the commercials and just happened to stumble upon it.

Another dumb reality-type show :(

I think the concept for the show is good but that host has to get outta there. Hes a total dickbag. "THIS ISNT STREET RACING!" so why is the guy flagging? Shouldn't they run off a tree so nobody can jump? I think its pretty real, the look on that TA guys face when he got beat was almost as if he was about to cry. I think they need to have more even match-ups. A fairly stock appearing TA on nitrous vs a gutted race car on even more nitrous?

at least Top Gear is now on discovery....yes....wooooooohooooooooo!!!!! 8)

Really? What day(s)/time(s)?

*Ahem* That was a formula. :lol:

That show sucked. Completely staged, fake as hell, and I bet the dude got his car back afterwards too. If he even really gave it up.
