I saw an ad for it, but didn't catch what network. Any good?
It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.
Girls comb their hair in rear view mirrors and the boys try to look so hard....

I like it and these guys DRIVE their cars to race not trailer em and before I get bashed, I like Street Outlaws but lets face it, VERY few have cars of that caliber let alone drive/race em on the street.......

I did a search...... Which came up with "Appalachian outlaws" as being a show about growing gensing.

Red Devil Racers on the Discovery channel. Not bad, more realistic as far as street cars go, but there was a lot of "show" for one real quick and not exciting race at the end. The dude w/ the blue Z28 is annoying. Hey, it's another show on TV about cool cars. I'll watch it.

I agree, I would rather watch some of these Car shows , then some of the other Trash/Drama that is on

While it was somewhat refreshing to see real everyday low-buck cars, reality is that I can see that by walking out to my garage. Personally, I found those guys to come across like a band of idiots. Perhaps they're not, but that's the way the show came across to me. Count me in the camp of guys that basically watched in horror with the thought that all of America is seeing this and honing their opinion on car guys.
If the producers didn't know jack about cars, then the guys in the show should have taken a little more ownership of their own brand, and demanded the show present a little more intelligent approach to things.
And for gods sake.... taking a mig welder to a tube covered in exhaust wrap.... [ Moparts Family Site - Keep it Friendly ]!? Am I the only guy that was thinking "if its cracked in one spot, you better remove that wrap and check the rest of it".
The whole thing was low rent in my book.

Just watched it on youtube...well, I had it playing as I was trying to be productive...ha
1. Not sure how you have a "daily driver" that rubs the tires that bad and you don't notice it. 2. Not sure how you can swap a NA/N2O carb to a blow through application, with no modifications, and have it work better. 3. If you are loosing a ton of boost, sure, throw some spray at it. 4. Race bucket mounted to some aluminum sheetmetal?
I get the whole grassroots thing, but seriously...
Good for them though. If someone wanted to make a show about me visiting my mom and making 7 second passes in my street car, I'd be all over it too I guess.
