Great Show!

I had to tape it twice as we had severe weather alerts blasting over the TV right when they started talking about the second generation Chargers. ARRGH!

The hour format was much better. They always skipped a lot of stuff when trying to squeeze into 30 minutes. Could have spent less time on the history of Dodge but that is interesting too. I was surprised that there wasn't much mention of the Super Bee, especially the A12 cars.

Was cool to see the Bober's cars side by side at the end. I have a certain affinity for high-impact '71s.

Nick.

A+ on the show, in fact, I went to the Speed channel site and sent in some very positive feedback and a request for more! I for one loved the history lesson as there was a lot that I didn't know. I too was surprised at the lack of mention of the Super Bee, but I guess it's fair to say that sales-wise this car was overshadowed by the Road runner. Overall I thought the show was very well produced and the content was first rate. I rewound that one shot of the hemi Dart running thru the gears from inside the car over and over with the volume cranked- man, what a sound!

We want more! If that show had gone on for five hours, I would've sat right there and watched it.
