ummmmm.. Probably not. But i would definitly have the highest ratings
I highly doubt that. Of course with all the other junk on television now, this show couldn't be any worse.

I figured that is what makes me ill with NASCAR. Promotion. Damn what a machine! NASCAR drivers are promoting their sponsors ... potato chips, rental cars,... hell everything ... Cealis... when a relaxing moment turns into the right moment... I must not be with my wife!!!!! ... She'll be asleep, and I'll have this "thing" to bother me...[if you have an erection lasting more than four hours, watch NASCAR... in VEGAS!]
Trust me fellas. I'm not doggin' out the sport at all. The NASCAR people have their own science and no doubt there is skill in driving, but it's the promotion and over-NASCAR action that gets me. What a monster!
Honestly, some day I wouldn't mind making it out to PIR when the NASCAR parties are there. It will probably be an absolute blast.
SPEED Channel redeemed themselves in my eyes this weekend. Great "other" racing.
Have Fun!!!

While we're on the subject of Speed Channel shows, what the hell is up with Unique Whips and Biker Buildoff??? I mean what a couple of stupid shows. Looks like something Uncle Joe shot in his basement and all the bickering and BS, who the hell wants to watch that???

... and attempt to copy the success of "American Chopper". The chemistry of that show will be hard to duplicate because it is genuine... I guess.
But I DO like to watch "American Chopper"! Paul Sr. and Mikey!
Great show!
Don't watch the BBuildoff and the other show because they seem to much like a "gang" attitude and yep... they are
