I caught a few minutes of that show last night.  I was watching them slide those Crown Vics around a course, and I thought: "That looks like Belle Isle".

Sure enough - It is filmed on Belle Isle, here in Detroit.  I had never even heard of the show!

Did you notice, though...When they had the final event (when they made the driver change)...They were blasting the cars with a fire hose, and the contestants had to switch positions.  They made it look like they jumped back in the car and took off.  However...they had the safety harnesses back on!  I think they stopped/started filming during some of the events, but made it look like one continuous event.  I'm sure that is typical of 'reality' shows, though.

I don't know if it is the only reality show worth watching - I enjoy Pass Time!

Yeah, there really is no such thing as a reality show. That's why I don't waste my time with them.

I could be wrong but I think that was the first time it was on.Anyway any time you can see a bunch of "blue ovals" get messed up..........well that's just quality entertainment. :stirpot:
