The one thing about that show I saw was, that about 90% of the competitors need to go see a dentist. Their teeth looked like they had been gnawing on the bars of their cages.

Scary.

You ever try to push start a TH400 with a 4000 stall vertor??????

maybe about 40 mph you might get the engine to start turning over, by then the tranny fluid will be trashed.

Re: Pinks All Out

Re: Pinks All Out
 

hell yeah! i wanted that guy to win too. But he got ancious and jumped it.

Re: Pinks All Out
 

he didn't jump. He forgot to set the transbrake so when he staged the power overwhelmed the brakes and it crept forward.

has anyone been to pink's hot dogs in LA? they're bomb

Re: Pinks All Out
 

LOL... Thursday was the first time I'd ever seen either show.

I think the all out was kind of stupid because there's nothing on the line. The people were all smiles if they won or lost, because they got their shot and could still drive their car home. It's like spending 2 dollars on a lottery ticket and not winning... Oh well... Then again, someone got disqualified for going too fast so there's some competition built in to it.

With the regular show, there's a quickness to it that's appealling. Like when they're bitching and yelling at each other negotiating, the guy who runs the show just butts in and says "Hey, if you don't decide, I'm taking both cars." So they need to think quick, react quick and race quick. It's not very calculated at all... I imagine the stress and pressure would have to be unbelievable.
