I like the show. If you've ever been to a street race, on the hiway, late at night/early morning, you know the races aren't scripted.
My biggest issues, are I want to HEAR the cars during burnout and the run.
Also like was said, show the race, then replay with a few angles thrown in.
Around here there is no list for fastest car. It's all about $$$ BIG MONEY.
You can race a 10 second car against an 8 second car if the spot is right.
Not saying this in a bad way, but I bet if we saw where these guys lived, we would understand where the money from the car comes from.
Also, cost of living is different in different areas. Around here, close to NYC, cost of living is crazy. I bet you could get at least 10 acres out there for the cost of a small house on a 50x100 lot here.
More power to those guys, they seem like the type I'd like to bang out and have fun with.
