Overhaulin has done ever car under the sun and from what I understand Chip Foose's first car was a 356 and they have managed to diss the mark as well. What is the haps man???

It is a reality show centered around a illegal cross country rally hosted my Goldberg and a bevy of hot chicks. They started with like 13 teams.

As far as I can tell, it is NOT an illegal cross country rally. Players have a certain amount of time to get from point A to point B. Faster is better, but if you get pulled over, you pay the ticket, and loose time.

At the end of the first heat (each leg is two heats), they have a short autocross type challenge where a couple of teams go head to head in a slalom / car control type challenge, but with a twist. For example - the cars had long poles attached on the roof, and had to go through a slalom and hit light bulbs with the ends of the rods. I suppose the general audience needs to see things going boom to keep their attention....

Cool show - I've caught a couple of episodes of it so far. I would LOVE to enter my Porsche in such a contest - would be fun to see how it fairs...

Rich idiots who can't drive for anything, but think that owning a Lambo automatically makes them Michael Schumacher.

The Ford F150 pickup guy seems to be the best player -- quiet, no trash talking, cooperates with his navigator - doesn't get into "playing the game," and has the determination that will make him a winner. The Trans-Am father/daughter team seem to have picked up the pace as well. My guess is those two may be the final two.

I can't believe the BMW driver nearly blew his motor by hot-dogging it with 360's after one of the challenges. Stupid moron.

The Elise has so much potention - but not driven to even half its capabilities.

The Olds Guidos and the Charger clowns can't be taken seriously.
