I doubt very much Pinks is gone for good.The high production costs most likely pushed the show into restructure. Like the show or not Pinks brought grassroots drag-racing back to the forefront.500+ drivers fighting it out to run heads up. A few members here were fortunate enough to snag a Pinks all out win.That's Gotta be a big rush! Maybe Nate and the old crew will back,who knows. I'm hoping Pinks will be back in 2012 or sooner.

Cut thru all the BS.. and I loved the show, I loved the concept of the show and I loved what it did for the sport of drag racing..
What I didnt like is how unfair the show was..
We participated in 5 Pinks All Out shows over the years.. Drove from Las Vegas all the way up to Washington.. and for all 5 races, they picked low to mid 10 second cars..
Yeah, ok, I'll concede, there are more mid 10 second cars than others.. and yeah, the ET's might have been tighter grouped.. But I didnt see any appreciation for the thousands of dollars I spent to tow my car to the track... only to be window dressing..
In the first couple of years, when family and friends sat around the tube when the show first aired.. we all got a kick outta seeing the car.. seeing ourselfs and/or seeing friends on the silver screen.. But this last year, with the new format.. it was just pathetic and I kinda take it as if Rich (and company) no longer cared about us peons that helped to make the show what it was..
(rant over)
