Anyone ever watch Pinks?

I know. It's a weak show and this is a weak thread. However, I did find this amusing.

Anyhow, in an episode where a Camaro races a Mustang, one of the guys is Tony from Chicago. The show is really full of anticlimax and low on drama. No one loses their car.

Turns out, though, that this guy Tony goes around the country calling folks out with the challenge of "who wants to get clipped". He and his 'crew' only street race. They'll put their car in a trailer, travel to anywhere, prep the street with VHT and then film it. There's obviously a lot of smack talking. Here's a video clipRight click/save as

What's funny is the guy comes onto the local (Indianapolis) website looking for some action; again a lot of sh*t talking occurs, but apparently nothing every comes of it.

This is the local (Indianapolis) car 'enthusiast' website: http://indycarz.com/search.php His screen name is Jucin.

i've seen the show a couple of times, and yes it is weak.

most of the time, all the guys do is complain and make excuses.

Yeah , I saw that episode , the civic had a b18c5 turbo charged with race slicks . It looked like he was out-classed from the beginning . The other driver seemed to be more experienced . I still can't believe he asked for 20 car lenghts .
