Cobra on Pinks Speed TV?
 
I was flipping channels on Tuesday night and just caught the last little bit of Pinks on Speed TV.
A Cobra was on the track when it looked like the engine blew, but the commnetator said it was the breather I think
Anybody see this and knows what happened?

No,
But I would love to see a Cobra race on Pinks!

Was that the 1 hour episode when they compete for 10K? or a regular 30 min show that featured just 2 cars?

I watched an episode last night on Speed and they couldn't decide if one bike left early or not so they had to re-run that race. It shows how stupid it is to have some guy in the middle of the track waving his arms up and down instead of using a "tree".

The concept of the show is good but the negotiations and all the arguments are dumb.:( :eek: :mad:

I don't know what episode it was.
Like I said, I was just flipping channels and caught the very end of the drag showing the rear end of what appeared to be a Cobra blowing it's engine however someone said it was the breather.
When I managed to get back to the channel, it was over.
I agree the negogations and arm waving is dumb.

If it was the one hour 10K show, I have seen it and there isn't much air time for the Cobra. I believe they actually had several try out. If it is a seperate 30 min show, I haven'r seen it and would like to.

I too don't care for the arm drop start and the pointless negotiations....

Pinks sucks big time.

Here is another thread

I agree WTM. They spend 59 1/2 minutes agruing and complaining and only 30 seconds racing.

Agreed. The dimwit that hosts that show was exactly the kind of guy we would go looking for on Saturday night. He was the guy driving the Chevelle with the jacked up back end bragging that he ran 11's. We'd talk him into giving us a one car lead "flying at him" (a jack rabbit start is all you need to really clean someone's clock in a street race). And then we'd take his money and :LOL: all the way back to the drive-in until another sucker like him came along. :3DSMILE:

I had a really nice '70 1/2 Z-28 Camaro because of guys like him. And it only ran mid 13's... :D

I had to laugh when he dropped the bike on the show... What a knuckle head

PatBuckley 08-16-2007 04:58 PM

That wasn't a Cobra - it was some sort of Lister copy.

I think PINKS is awesome. I'm not sure who else you would pick to host the races. Who? The dude that hosts it does a great job. The show itself is in ways like a couple dudes staging up a street race. Nothing wrong with doing things in a legal way.

Agreed. If you don't like it, don't watch it and quit whining about it.......:p

xracerbob 08-17-2007 12:34 PM

I don't like it but I make my wife watch it so she doesn't see too many "pimp my house" shows.

RACERAL 08-17-2007 08:12 PM

I hope you know guys know I was kidding.. That Cheby was bad..That was a high 5 sec. car.. Mine was low eights....

if you would pay attention, pinks is the show with the arguments. it is 30 min. long. the one hour show is the heads up show. and until you've done it, don't knock it
