Cobra on Pinks Speed TV?

If you get a chance to go to a taping of Pinks All Out.........DO IT. Beats an NHRA show hands down!

The concept of the show is good but the negotiations and all the arguments are dumb.

I agree. The guy on the starting line is an idiot. The negotiations and arguments are all scripted. I buddy of mine went to a taping and they were all laughing and joking when the camera wasn't on. The show is a total farse.

I love to watch street cars drag race but the host guy is such a brainless egomaniac.

Notice when he fell off of the borrowed motorcycle in shame he returns out of the emergency room trailer with his shirt off as to compensate for his embarrasing skit. Macho macho macho man!! As irratting as he is that is really funny!

I think the show pass time is usally very entertaining. Little more knowledge on the cars at least and no conflict BS.

If I'm fliping and it's on I will amuse myself and watch untill the irate toothless girl friend starts yelling then I have to check that it's not jerry springer I'm watching

Not for nothing it always amazes me that people can spend more money on there cars then there teeth, all I can say is I must have srcewed up priorities

twm442 Warren You missed the show where MR. Smart@$$ jumps on a crotch rocket with no helmet and whips out. He didn't break anything, ( that was good) but had a large eatting of HUMBLE PIE for being stupid. As far as the racing, it's a bracket race where someone is going to get 10K in cash. That covers some tires and racing gas. One of these days, Mr. Christen is going to be a road pizza when a wheelie car breaks and hits him on leaving. I hope not to see it, but the laws of average are coming. How's the fishing?? Rick L.

I liked the first few episodes but the premise is flawed.

The problem is the show only lasts 30 minutes so it's easy to figure out who's going to win. 5 minutes left, dude is down 2 races to 1, he's going to lose the last race. They try to hide the obvious conclusion with a lot of manufactured drama. That gets real old, real quick.

Then you have the "Pinks- all out" which is even less entertaining since they aren't racing for pinks and they aren't running all out (it's bracket racing).

Now, if you replace that bald headed, arm waving douche with a big boobed hottie and I might watch a few more episodes.

Amen, brother!
That dude is unwatchable.

The idea behind Pinks is great, but with some idiot with no racing experience trying to look and act the part about someone who knows racing...it killed it for me. Dump the bald-headed freak for John Force or someone with some history behind the sport of racing and Pinks would be worth the effort of watching. As it is, I watch the first season and was left wanting a little more racing and a lot less talk.

What ? No critical comments about "Nate" the Technical Advisor ?
Actually, despite ackowledging there is bogus negotiating, with all the crap on TV I do enjoy watching 30 minutes of Pinks if just to see the different set ups ...watch them launch etc. There are many other bogus and boring sponsor driven car & bike TV shows out there. And...they sure do draw a tremendous crowd when the bring the All Out Pinks to a town! Pass Time ?
Again...I don't know why but if I'm flipping channels I'll watch that too.
The bike flop was hilarious because he just jumped on the thing and had No respect for the power.......boom. That had to hurt!
