Anybody willing to do a drag boat race on the tv show pinks?
I watched it the other day,cool show. We all need to throw a bunch of parts togethor and build a boat to go run it.

YUP!
that is a great tv show.. it just sucks because right after every race starts, they send it to commercial. and half the show is made up of the owners bitching about how the other is sandbagging. but it does get interesting. :)
When the guy lost black 1970 nova
that was bad, could not imagine the
drive home without the car.
It would be cool if the cars were not high dollar cars. & one run they could do a drivers swap to run the other guys car to see if they are sandbagging
I saw the one where a guy lost a Harley V-rod.
That one really sucked. Driving off with an empty trailer.
It would be interesting to see a show with a couple boats.
Like a v-drive vs. a jet...

True, the jet guys can pick their fastest and the v-drive guys can pick their fastest (TAH) :D
Put an end to which drive is the fastest.

Coulda swore someone posted on ***boat with inside info that the races were real but the pink shit was just drama for TV.

I just spoke to Rich the guy who created the show. At first he did not even want to talk about boats as feature on the show but after a half hour of showing him video online and pleading our case he is pumped on the idea of racing boats. His biggest problem that he is having is that the people that win have no balls and they give the car back or sell the car back at a cut rate. HE DOES NOT WANT THAT He wants the real deal here. He wants people that dont know each other or people that are enemies to race. He hopes you sell the guys car on Ebay or you dismantle it for your own parts. Anything but give the poor guy his boat back. I am supposed to come up with a place and racers that are willing to lose their boat. He does not want grudge races! If you are coming to race, expect to lose your ride PERIOD. Here is how it works:
You tell him what your boat runs and he puts another boat (you won't know which boat) up against you. If you say your boat runs 9 seconds he will match you with other boats that claim to run 9 seconds. It will be a drop of the hand start and a winner picker at the end. It is a best 3 out of 5. You can negotiate a head start if you like. You can set it up any way you want, just as long as somebody loses a boat in the end.
The ultimate thing is to come up with a boat and engine worth 8-10K and make it look like it is worth 15-20K (paint) Have people sponsor it and put their name on the boat and get some TV time.
Who is in?
Call me a pu#$y, but no f'n way.

if they do indeed lose their cars lots of them have money to build new ones.. like that one guy that owns the rat rod shop in minnesota or something. but that one guy in the white buick(i cant remember but i think it was a buick) that the minnesota guy beat. that was a shitty deal.
I can donate one of my "Ratboat" specials. You know. like Billy does. Anyway I can do it for the weekly special of 800.00. Your boat should look like it's worth 20,000 when we here at Minegar's Custom Boat Paint and Hair Salon are done with it. If the demand was enough I could get Uncle Fritz to move the used tire store out of my shop....RCL Merry X-Mas
they really need to work on their editing on that show if anything, it sucks to say the least.

LOL. But we know who would do it. Tony would.
Watched it the other night for the first time. I agree about the owners sandbagging talk and that cutting to commercial after the start of every race is annoying. I just got cable so everything on TV is exciting to me lately. talk about joining the new millenium. Merry Christmas everyone!

I don't get the speed channel but I was able to watch some short flicks of what goes on in that show at the speed channel website. Show needs some work but has possiblitys.
