mytowrig Date 5/11/2008 8:36:04 PM looked like that mustang would have stomped him... was that just a bad shift or what?
handymanherb Date 5/11/2008 9:12:05 PM Yes his but was kicked if the didn't spin the tires on the shift.
are you guys hearing yourselves ? this is a ( at least ) 6000lbs truck doing 10's in the 1/4. That in itself is impressive. Those mustangs have been doing that a long time and don't weigh near what our trucks do. For that truck to have made it to the final on Pinks is really cool. That means he did beat, 100's of other cars. :-)

I'm impressed at his run times, I was just saying he got beat off the line that time, you can't launch good every time and some time you win by who broke down first.

I will be watching for it on pinks and hope he wins even if I knew he didn't

the pinks all out competitions are good but anything else with pinks is the gayest **** i've ever seen. It's too much ***** *** negotiation bullcrap none of the races are ever fair and you pretty much know who will win before each race. I laughed when the episode is on where rich wrecks the motorcycle because he's a complete tool

I haven't watched Pinks since, hell I can't remember when.

I think it is the gayest show ever.

I mean, come on, "Gimme 2 car lengths.....you can't use the spray....you brought an 11 sec car, they said bring a 13....etc."

Holy crap, run what ya brung or get off the track.

I guess that's why I never liked bracket racing. Just seems more like you vs yourself than anything else.

If you agree to come on the show, put up or shut up. Nobody wants to see your broke *** ride leaking coolant all over the line.

unless that broke *** ride leaking coolant still wins such as the case with the pinks show that had that 2500 RCLB with bully dog stuff on it.

not only that but the other guy was useing spray the whole time and ran out on the last pass just to keep up with the beast.

Well, ya see, that's different......it was a Cummins.

Had it been a PowerChoke, everybody would have been using the puddle for their burnouts.



Plus, he wasn't allowed to run his spray on his first runs.

That's kinda my point.

It's like going to a concert. Nobody wants to see a raggedy sounding jam session, they paid for a show and and part of the show is a solid performance.

I say, if they want to run on the show. Bring your *** and if you can't keep up, don't penalize the other guy.....you better find a way to make MORE power and lay it down.

I don't want to see a guy capable of 9's run in the 12's just because the other tard can't get his carburator adjsuted right for the altitude or whatever.

I hate to admit it, but i too found that crash hysterical. he IS a tool !!

That new show I think it's called Pass Time where you have 3 guy's betting on a drivers time is MUCH better than Pinks any day
