Default Setup - New Show On Speed

Only 2 episodes have aired so far. If you haven't heard of it, it's aired weekley on Wednesday nights. 10 amateur drivers and their accompanying team (mechanic/crew chief, also amateur) are each given a new Solstice GXP and they compete in their car setups and driving skill to win a series of road course races. So far looks very interesting. Just wondered if anyone knew where to download or watch the episodes.

i didn't think they would sell anywhere near as well as they hoped. they would have been better of making it pink and fluffy and marketing it to girls. Whats the show that tests cars, Test Track? or something like that. They had one out at miami beach and the only people that showed any interest in it were girls. The few guys that they got weren't interested at all. Its more or a girl car than the last two generations of ecplises.....
