Yup.. I'll tune into that....

Also on "Speed" channel at 7pm - 8pm every night a show "Pass Time" GREAT SHOW where two contestants have to guess the ET of a car on the line...

They can ask 1 question, and they play vs Ken Harrington.. he works at a speed shop out West I think... Its a GREAT show.... IMO

Next time you watch it, take a good look at "Paige" the girl who runs the lanes.. (I think they call her the "Car Wrangler")

Damn if she don't look like Jeanne.....

Make no mistake, John. The only thing Paige has in common with Jeanne is the hair color.

Jeanne is funny, friendly, interested in cars and racing and many other complimentary things can be said about her...

Paige, well, not so much.....

In case you didn't get it from the pic I posted, I was on the show...

I'm wondering about how you came up with that opinion ? You can't tell anything about her personality from what you/I can see on TV... maybe her "personality" in person is NOT as good as she looks on TV...

I've never heard her say one word on TV so I cant judge her, I was basing it on only her looks..

I'm watching "Street Outlaws" (tonight at 10 pm) on Discovery Ch.


It looks staged... a lot of BS it looks like...tough talk.. and the racing scenes look like they were playing to the camera...

Well, that was entertaining. I think I'll quit complaining about track prep.

Fast n Loud is fun too.

Pure garbage (but some cool cars)

On another note-I am sure there are local tracks that they can grudge race at.

I like DWTS but I don't think showing racers who would spend their food money on part and have their families live in trailers that are behind in their house payments so they can bet on a street race is right. Is that really they way we want racers to be portrayed?
