[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Drag racers - Are you watching the "Pinks all Out" Marathon today?

It's on the Speed Channel. Started at 2pm ... will go on till 11pm tonight. That's 9 full hours of grassroots drag racing

I love drag racing and think Pinks all Out is the coolest thing. I can relate to the 12 thru 9 second cars much more than I do the Top Fuel stuff they run on televised NHRA contests. Although, I do like the door slammers (Pro Stock).

So, who's watching?

I would be if I was home. I think it's full of sandbaggers, best sandbagger wins. I do enjoy the cars.

It was, the first couple seasons. But they've done a pretty good job of weeding most of them out after season 3.

edit - and I'm talking about Pinks all Out ... not the original Pinks (raced for pink slips). That show (the original) was full of sandbagging.

Update - after 3 shows, Chevy's are dominating

Yep, in the original Pinks, sandbagging WAS the game. I caught an episode of All Out last week where I heard them say in the driver's meeting "And if we looked at your stack of old time sheets in your glove box, we'd see these same times, right?" I imagine that some sort of resume' for the car became part of the entry/selection process.

Are they still making new episodes of this?

I'm home, but there is a gaggle of wimmenz-in-law playing a board game directly in front of the TV.

Come to my house. I have a big ass TV and some Mexican food.

A Ford Mustang just won $10,000 against an Obama Camaro.
