    Yea they have gotten basically the same and the new ones they only have like 10mins for all the cars to go thur before the class is picked. Guess ill wait till it gets closer since there's a 6 hours difference in driving who's going to the hot rod power tour show in tenn???

    Yeah, that new guy he's got on the show, I think he used to be a radio personality or something. Anyway, he is really obnoxious. They always put the camera on him for his remarks, and I say to myself, what is this guy, in the fifth grade? The show has become really comercialized, and it's just not personable anymore. In a nut shell, "it sucks". Used to love it ! Just my 2 cents, currently trading a 1 cent.:tiphat:

    We actually went to the Pinks All Out at Commerce, Ga and to tell you the truth, we thought it was a waste of time. Between all of the break downs and all of the wait time to clean the track inbetween, it wasn't worth us sitting out in the hot Georgia sun for 13 hours. Then it was way past 10pm before it was over and there wasn't hardly any people left in the stands. Better to watch it on TV.
