The reason 3 million people are watching the show is bc i. they believe it's "real" and ii. they believe its illegal (you say its not) and the threat of violence or getting caught by the cops is alluring. iii. they love wild rides and seeing them flogged on the street (in albeit controlled circumstances of which for the most part they are not aware about)

Nowhere close to 3 million viewers, the top rated 'reality' show is that Survivor in the Nude or whatever its called, that series gets 3 million viewers, none of the car shows is even in the Top 10 of viewers. My figures are from Muiti Channel News, a weekly trade publication.
