I don't like "pinks" they don't use a tree so it's the starter's opinion whether or not you left early. Not only that, what's his name is a member of PETA.

That and I watched an interview where the guy admitted he didn't know anything at all about racing/cars when the show first started filming. He'd "learned a lot since" however...D-Bag

The show is only tolerable when recorded and then fast forwarded through, which if you watch just the races, takes about 5 minutes to watch. The best episode was when he dumped the sport bike trying to ride down to the top end of the track

Oh hell yes.. That was great.. The dumping of the bike was nothing compared to his trying to act hard after it.

yah, he takes his shirt off to get cuts on his hands addressed.. was like WTF?
D-bag...
heard the same interview, he was at Barrett Jackson.. the guy is a tool..

All out is tolerable, however he wants 8-9 second cars, but has to realize that those don't always fit the format.. as they can require more prep to be safe vs. the 10 sec car...

Yea.. the whole hot lap final thing with out turning off the car I saw would not go well with a car that has a chute on the back.

I would not run a sub 9 seconds car with out a chance to look things over between races. My car & life are worth more then the tools TV show
