Been watching it because it's a race car show.
What do you think?
The episode with Andy Mayes and the dart was the best one so far for me.

i like it. although there is the usual bickering made for tv drama, it isn't NEAR as much as the SO shows.

I've watched it a couple of times and cant get into the grudge hype... plus seems a little "Produced" so I loose interest quick. Also not a fan of copy cats ie "405", the last one I watched he kept saying the "256" twocents

I rather enjoy it for the fun they seem to have and the camaraderie.
Eric's got a pretty wicked but low-key sense of humor.
Even when there's an argument it seems more maturely handled than the other shows.
Some of the cars look pretty sketchy.
They seem to be racing on thin wallets, but then there's that transporter...

That junk Dart with the indy 572 engine that Dede Ford from PTC went 5.09@135.76.
Made me want to park my Dart after that.

Discovery after the Memphis circus.

I just can't watch it without hearing Eric try to sound like Morgan Freeman.

I too watched the show with the Dart.
Ehhh,,hard to get too attached to reality TV.
Was nice to see a Mopar for a change.
Much like the home remodel/flip shows......if you've ever done any of this stuff,like all of us have.
You see LOTS of inconsistencies and mistakes in the show.
But beats watching Hallmark, men are asses TV with the wife drinking

I watch it on Motortrend tv, it's better than most but still scripted, but its still entertainment to a point


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I do enjoy the show I think we all get the made for tv drama but I like the thin wallet description of their builds makes it more relatable to many of us and to add I’ve never seen a show that had an episode that centered around a mopar which I can appreciate and enjoy and the good humored banter between

I have watched the show and enjoyed a lot of it.It's entertainment. Certainly lower bucks than current NHRA racing,making it somewhat easier to relate to. Watch it for what it really is and hope it evolves and doesn't just go away.It's not mean't to be a rigid documentary or a tech bulletin. Bill

The dart hauled azzz. It beats watching the masked singer and the bachelor.

Mototrend is the best thing around for car shows. Its worth every penny.

Its Drag Racing. Hell I remember watching the Winter Nationals in Pomona in July on the ABC Wide World of Sports show. I appreciate it for what it is, A show about Drag racing. Someone has to sponsor it or we don't watch....
