I agree. And the production quality seemed quite low to me. Rather amateurish. I think the show could attract a modest following if it focused on people finding and restoring Vettes, tips for owners, sales of interesting or unusual Vettes, and Vette history. There is a lot of material for them to work with, but so far I'm not too impressed, although I admit I've only seen two or three episodes.

I have Tivo'd each episode to watch at my leisure. The first show essentially a repeat of another show that was on Velocity previously. I agree that it would be more interesting to see what Vertigogo and Jimmie Jam pointed out. Thank goodness for Tivo I can easily skim over the Mid America commercials, They repeat the same one over an over.

I understand that the show would not exist without commercials but the content has to become more interesting to maintain their viewership.

Are these episodes available online? I saw episode 1 and 2 on youtube and a random 5 and 6 on a friends DVR. I was really looking for episide 3 or 4 when they check out the lingenfelter collection as a group of people is visiting. I make an appearance in that one.

I gave up watching it, just didn't work for me but I think the episode you may be looking for is #9 Lingenfelter Performance unless it was taken at Carlisle in episode 3 or 4 at the Great Hall.

It's a heckuva lot better than the Porsche or Viper shows.

Well I think it is the best corvette show on!

I just watched the episode about the museum. I got to go there one day. It looked pretty awesome!

I finally got through all the episodes. Friday evening is a rough night to watch TV, so I relied on DVR. Look, any friggin show with Corvettes in it has my immediate attention! I do get tired of watching the same exact commercial as said above. Hope it comes back!
