New 2010 Pinks All Out Episodes

I just watched the new West Palm Beach Pinks episode. They added a narrator over the entire show and it has completely ruined the show. It sounds like the guy who narrates the shows about factories or earth movers on TLC. Here's a quote in an unenthused monotone voice - "these rumbling mid ten second cars have barely an eye's blink of time between them." Totally changed the show. It's like they are trying to make it more mainstream and explain it to everyone. Also, they were down to the final 16 cars only 9 minutes into the show. Poor choice Speed TV.

Does anybody feel the same about it?

YES, I feel the same way. What a joke, bad move on thier part I think. I've competed in the PINKS All Out show 2 years in a row now. My episode is coming up Aug. 4th I believe. I haven't ever made the final cut but it has been a lot of fun going. I have met a lot of nice people. I was looking forward to watching it but now???????? I can't beleive they cut out all the snippets on all the other cars that didn't make it. I hope they see thier error and change it back.

My brother and I are running his '67 Firebird at the the Norwalk, OH Pinks All Out. Hopefully they'll change the show back to its former self by then. There is a thread on the Yellowbullet forums that rips the show, and Nate from former Pinks seasons chimes in:
