R U FASTER then a redneck
 

Lastnite while talking to one of my pca budies, he was telling me to turn it to the speed channel, that i had to see this show. R U Faster then a Redneck. so i guess basically they have these american muscle cars to race against all foreign cars. if you beat the american built muscle car you get $10K. There was a Nissan GTR that one $10k..... you must check it out. ill try to post videos of the show tonite.....

3rd thread on this and counting...LOL

Good for the GT-R guy. Brought a beat down.

Yea, somehow I don't believe those backwoods country fuchs are cruising around in thier own pro-touring cars.

I watched a bit of this, and it is so stupid and staged that I had to stop.

Stock or close-to-stock furrin' cars (like a WRX sti) against $100k+ resto-mod American cars having 500+ hp. And they don't hesitate to use ringers when they have to. In order to beat a Lambo they brought in a pro (well.... Kenny Wallace, but he is a pro).

I don't see any of the "redneck" cars being typical of the breed, unless Chip Foose is heavily discounting his work. These redneck "street" cars would look at home on a grid of Rolex-series GT class cars, but these have bigger engines.

Btw, I didn't watch the show for long, but I didn't see any Porsches or Ferraris. I can't help but wonder how Reaper930's "Blackbird" car, driven by someone like Boris Said, would do against the "redneck" cars.

I saw a little bit of last week. It was a 2004 Gallardo vs a heavily modified Bandit Trans Am done by Year One. Big shock, the TA won. I bet that TA had $250K in it and the Gallardo is worth low $100's and yet the Lambo guy is the rich yuppie?
It's Honey Boo Boo on wheels.

Whatchu mean!?

You don't like Maranaise sammiches and skitties with ketchup/butter sauce:p

Honey Boo Boo on Wheels indeed!

There have been a lot of bad car related shows over the years, but this one might be the worst. The premise is dumb, the acting is forced, the stereotypes are over played, and well it is just craptastic overall.

Speed is turning into Fox Sports 1 in August, and while I miss the original Speed with great coverage of all types of racing, I will not miss what it has become.

Speedvision this is not. We lobbied to get it on the regular satellite lineup and when they finally did it we had about two months before it was overtaken and turned into the NASCAR channel. It slowly bled all the good motorsports coverage to bring us what we have today.

That's funny.
