I watched it last night when it came on; hilarious. I knew those southern boys wouldn’t be able to hang with that AWD, corner-carving Nissan.

:flag: :lurk::cheers:

Just because they are all fat, and speak - strangely - doesn't mean they can't drive.

If Jeff U. still had his R1 LoCost it could the Red Neck w/ the import. The Organic Racing se7en would be interesting

I think the only good that can come out of Speed being rebranded is that fact that this show dies with it.

Anyone watch this show on Sunday night ? There was a young man with a Lotus Exige running against the Camaro. I was surprised the Lotus didn't show better at CMP, being a small track. The other guy with a BMW M6 ran stronger, and that is one heavy car. American muscle try to overcome handling issues with more HP.....doesn't always work

I saw it. The lotus driver was just a kid. Didn't seem to have much experience and as most of us know, it's not the car it's the driver. Some of this looks very staged to me. Spin offs and then catch the guy? I Doubt it.

 

It would be fun to watch Blubarisax car go up against them though.

 

"Boy you think that little ole 4 banger kit car can hang with this big ole 572 Chevy?" :jester:

Hey! Though I am a former farm boy from Minnesota...

Most of these "reality" shows are staged to some degree. However, it would be fun to slip in a guy in a 7 who is experienced. Someone like Croc or blubarisax, playing it kind of low key and toying with them on the first two laps then blowing it wide open on the last lap. Do you think they would air that one ?

 

By the way, Kersaw, SC, is so remotely located that there isn't a decent hotel/motel/diner for 50 + miles. It's roughly half way between Columbia, SC and Charlotte, NC, in the middle of nowhere. That land must have cost about $0.12 per acre. We were supposed to have a TT event there last year but it got cancelled due to low participation support. I wasn't surprised.

 

There is video on Youtube of a guy trashing his GT-R on this track when he missed the inside turn and pushed it into the tire wall.
