The biggest "issue" with the out of town races is they pick the spot, they test for a couple of days at the spot and don't allow the locals the same courtesy. So when race day comes they are far better prepared to get down that particular road than the "locals" are. Its TV they "need" a particular outcome. Doesn’t sound like the kind of scenario that would make one puff out their chests as much as the 405 crew does.

Both sides had access to the "track" on Tuesday to test and they raced on Wednesday. The local guys/gals got at least 2 of the 11 races. The street racers around here just don't have the high end stuff the 405 has.

Very true on the equipment side for sure. A couple known guys made their usual TV showing. I know the results of the entire two days of racing. The place they were racing is a very well known and as good as some racetracks for sure. Will be racing this weekend again, either there or by the windmills but NOT for the TV crew, just money.

Don’t think for a second that those cars are an accurate example of what we have up here, there are plenty of serious cars here. Most of those on the show are driven on the street every weekend. I can attest to that. There were a few I could think of I thought I might see on that episode that didn't make the trip or weren't asked obviously. On a side note my wife is from Hamilton

One more bad show and I'm done. Kind of pathetic with all the games that are going on. The show is ready to implode before our eyes.

One more bad show and I'm done. Blame it on the producers. I’m sure that they are pushing for more “ drama”, because they think that’s what everyone wants to see. This isn’t in defense of Chief, just saying why I think all this ‘ tention’ BS is happening.

I was running through the channels last night, stopped for a few mins when I came upon the show......... could have been 5 mins out of pretty much any show this season. SSDD.
I kept surfing.

There is an interview on FB or something that Reaper did this AM. I don't do Facebook but I could still watch it. It's about 42 minutes long and he covers some interesting stuff.
I'd post the link but I don't know how. Maybe someone could look it up and post it.

I'd lost the link but I don't know how. Maybe someone could look it up and post it. I would look it up but when I look at that guy my body begins to itch. He gives me the hebie jebies.

I’ve found lots of deals on Facebook, entered races that would have sold out before I knew about them, and just last night found out one of my old Street racing friends from 40 years ago passed away. We lost touch of each other and become Facebook friends again several years ago
