    A solid camera angle for the 5 seconds a pass takes would have helped determine that, but it didn't look like the nova was up to its potential.

    And isn't "Drag you ass" something a dog does when number 2 doesn't go according to plan?

    *disclaimer: been drinking....

    I saw this a few weeks ago, but only made it through about 20 minutes before tapping out and switching to Rachael Ray or Telemundo or something else less terrible. It's retardedly and insultingly fake like every other cable 'reality' show, and loaded with contrived, senseless drama in lieu of any actual interesting content. Every five minutes is an "almost fight", but the queers never actually do anything except run their stupid mouths and act like they're holding each other back. And I love how they all dress alike with gay looking black shirts and hoodies containing obviously inserted advertisements.....like I'm going to be marketed to by a bunch of fucking tv trailer trash. I did lol at all their frumpy, cornfed wives though. :yummy:

    Watching this crap solely because you like cars is like watching Honey Boo Boo because you like women. :grin:

    That is all. :cheers:

    Yep. Pretty much more bs drama that puts this in the same class of shows such as Ken mentioned. Add in OCC, Boyds bs, Loud and fast, Pass Time, etc, <5 mins of it, and it becomes channel surf time.:thumbsdown:

    I liked Pass Time, would sit here with a piece of paper and write the times down to see how close i was , 80% of the time i was closer than they were. That OCC after 3 shows of watching them air their family problems on network TV i was done, all they did was fight, hell i can go to the kids house if i want to see that shit.

    I always liked Passtime, cause you got to see so many different kinds of hot rods. And little to no BS drama!

    Would love to have a show that's purely amateur drag racing at the track, where they went to tracks all over the country from the big venues to the little tracks out in the sticks. Keep the drama out, just cover what's in the guy's/gal's car, interview them for a minute or two then get on with the race. None of the stuff you don't see at tracks, like on Passtime where people behind podiums guess the times. Maybe the most drama would be seeing the people make a few side bets and the victory cheers/loser agony afterwards. In other words... keep it real.

    I've watched a few episodes & I'm not a big fan. I really don't think they are the fastest in the US. Maybe in their minds.from what I've seen there is only 1 forced induction car MurderNova on the show??! & it's the fastest one.that guy ain't too swift he had postpone a race due to bald tires what he didnt notice them before when he broke the input shaft the week before while it was on the lift? That's an important detail. I'd like to see an outsider hand their asses to em!

    I caught Street Outlaws for the first time last night..... What a waste of a show. So obviously staged and the cars aren't really anything too special.

    I guess i dont hate the show. The drama is stupid but a couple of the fast cars are pretty cool. That Monte is quick and just hooks hard, I was disappointed in the race between it and the Nova. All the drama leading up to it and thats what we got.... The farm trucks is pretty cool, but come on now. There is no way its in the top 10 fastest street cars in Oklahoma.... And how the hell does he get people to street race him. I can see the big ass tires, rim screws and coil over rear suspension every time it shows the back of the truck. Ok I am done.
