Anyone else notice on pinks...
The japanese imports always get the short end of the stick? It seems they either get owned or out negotiated.. I just watched a new episode with a race civic and a mustang. The mustang was clearly the bigger sand bagger yet the import guy got hosed on negotiations... I don't think pinks hosts make it fair enough for the imports which are always less power than their competition...
just an unbias observation..think most will agree they arent really fair.. That guy should have gotten his 13 car lengths after the first race. if the mustang team was smart and he was pulling to hard back down and continue your cover...but to just rape them sand bagging two times isnt fun (entertainment) the kid drops and destroys his axle in the third race.. Another import down in pinks Last edited by Snake-eyes; 02-01-2008 at 08:12 PM. |

Ok, I think that civic had a k24 in it with a 125 shot of nitrous and dude said the best up to that point was a 14.8? Fiberglass doors, Lexan windows, CF hood and only God knows what else on that thing... They hosed themselves by letting the owner drive it.

Louder than 4 F404-GE-400
|
A crx made it to the final four in a pinks all out once. The guy in the glasses has respect for imports, but he is the only one. Sometimes, I wish our import family would jsut stick to what we do best, which is stick. They can have their straighs, I want the turns.

yeah pinks is biased to the domestic crowd and i guess it is because they aim the show to the muscle crowd. they came to vegas last year and all the quick imports got the shaft for the muscle cars. some of the imports where even faster than some of the domestics that got in, oh well i stopped watching the show anyways...

PINKS is cool, but the lengths and all that BS are too much. Run what u brung, if ur scared of losing ur car, dont race! I did see one guy with a LS1 Camaro negotiate to give up lengths but he started farther back instead of the other guy going farther out. He knew his cars set up. He smoked that dude.
