Shane basically got back what he did to Doc last season... push and all. Chuck just gets more wound up.
People love drama and this one didn't disappoint for that. All shows run their course eventually, but this one will be around for a while yet. Not really. The week before Chuck pulled a big queef and didn't race Shane. I can say no matter the outcome if that little half converted ricer car lover shoved me like that I would have broke his jaw. There wouldn't have been a push. The guy is a scab.

Guess no one else noticed how scripted and fake the "fight" was b/t Cuck and Shane? Shane over dramatized being shoved by throwing his legs up about 2 sec late, lol. Who says "I wanna hit you so bad right now"????? No you don't and you won't. If you did, you wouldn't have said anything.
It's like they are trying to run the show in the dirt this season...so far it blows bad. Only good thing about watching a list race is when one of em crashes. Sad.
The list means nothing IMO. They're all fast enough now that on any given night, #10 could outrun #1 doing the type of racing they do. Having said that, I believe Ryan has the fastest car in OKC. When it's on a run, none of the other OKC boys can beat it.
And why the hell is Lutz on the show? He's from PA???
I'm ready for JJ and the Memphis show to come back on.

I recorded it, but thankfully after hearing the glowing reviews I dont have to waste 15-20mins of my life watching it.
Sounds like it was just another list race anyway, and I’m done with those.

They filmed here a few days ago. I didn't go. If you win you won't make the show and if you loose you still pay. They set up the spot and spend a night or two testing then tell you the location. And I'm done with the Arm drop scam.

They all jump and anticipate you chasing them.

We’ll see how long it takes them to screw up the no prep show to the point where it’s unwatchable.

I was kinda bored w/ it the last couple of episodes last season. Gets old watching the same cars race each other...too few newcomers at each race IMO. I know I'm in the minority on this, but I felt like Kye Kelly got screwed over so I'm not a fan of the way they handle certain situations either.

The show has a few things that keep me coming back. Number one it’s on Monday night, number two is fast cars, and number three Racing. Like I said before I rairly tune in at the start so I can fast forward through the fluff. The World fake wrestling foundation crap doesn’t work for me but a few more pretty girls strutting their stuff would keep my interest. Maybe throw in a cat fight every few weeks as a bonus. Chief and his going on about the crown has me about sick to my stomach and watching Doc bounce off the curb looks like someone hit the repeat play button on the dvr.

The Memphis guys were here about a month ago, my son was at both races. Its a TV show plain and simple. They get to test on the road for the days leading up to filming and no on eels is allowed access to the road. As Dave said if you win 99% chance you DON'T make the show, if you loose your chances of being on TV are much much higher. Since they spend a few days testing on the road that is used the odds begin in their favor.
As for the no prep show. They keep changing the rules to try and favor the OKC cars. The set the races up to attempt to accomplish a favorable outcome for the people from the show, not the others who show. While the actual races on the track are real the events leading up to them have a definite slant. Thus all the rule changes put in place last minute for this seasons filming of the no prep show.

Same here. I will admit that Kye will cry about a lot, but he got screwed in the No Prep shows... Also seems like they are trying fairly hard to limit the success of the non 405 guys, Larson, Birdman, etc...

Kye lost on a red light. Everyone else played by the same rules... the fact is, he's not beating the fastest guys on the track anyways. He's knows it.
In the end, it's all made for tv and entertainment. I could do without the bs and drama, but I still watch it. I'm sure there are tons of people who watch it just for that. Exactly. Everyone had the same tree. That's one of the things that makes NPK easier to watch. You don't have that crap like the ricer Chuck actually rolling the lights and saying it wasn't a red light.

Or the Memphis bunch leaving early knowing 99% of the time they are going to be chased. The Memphis show is all about the hustle, not the race.
