Too much narative and then they would show scenes of whats coming up next after the commercial and you would know who won/lost BEFORE they showed it!!!! I likes PINK-LOSE THE RACE,LOSE YOUR RIDE much better!!!! My question is....Now that PINKS ig done,will PASSTIME be done too??? I really like that show!!!

Like the show or not Pinks brought grassroots drag-racing back to the forefront.500+ drivers fighting it out to run heads up. A few members here were fortunate enough to snag a Pinks all out win.That's Gotta be a big rush! Maybe Nate and the old crew will back,who knows. I'm hoping Pinks will be back in 2012 or sooner.

The all out was more like a true race. time trials, and then the race. Im not gonna miss baloon arms at all though. Kasey

I was thinking it would be an experience one way or the other to participate and figured I'd try to get into it at MIR, if they have it again. Oh, well...

The stands and the pits were always packed with cars and spectators, not something NHRA/IHRA can say. Racers we met were super group of people. We got in to three of the races, but were never selected. At Z-Max, 2009, we were selected as the car used to demonstrate the "go/go home" box. The overhead camera followed our Duster from the waterbox to the finish line and is freeze framed at the end of the run. Sure do hope Speed quickly reconsiders this decision. I would like to see it go back to the 2009 format, Pinks All Out/Pinks All Outakes. Let's send a few emails and see if we can help them decide.

The entire field for the run off was always just arbitrarily picked by the production crew! Had nothing to do with the driver�s or each cars ability/performance. I went to one Pinks All Out at MIR. Didn�t want to go but was talked into it by a friend. It was what I figured it would be. But what I can�t understand is that with the spectator attendance that was there I can�t imagine how it would be possible to NOT make money??? They had more people there than at a national event, I was told! This post is available in double vision where drunk.

Well i for one enjoyed the show on TV as it great seeing cars sometimes in my class of racing and how they performed at the track.You won't see that ever again on tv.What else is there now on tv that's related to grassroots dragracing? Horsepower TV... Twice he came to Ontario and ran the Arm Drop Live and it really packed the fans and drivers in and was always a fun weekend 77 Aspen R/T 60'@1.41 10.76 @ 123.26 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eya3Ue8KoZk

I planned on hitting the next one if it was <2 states away from Arizona. Hopefully they replace it with something soon!

You do have to give him credit for having a vision to create the best drag racing event I have had the chance to race at in a long time. Lots of cars, fill the event in 15 minutes or less by computer and bring the largest spectator crowds of ANY drag racing event. SPEED, I hope you rethink your decision.
