Barrett Jackson Coverage Rant
« on: January 30, 2016 - 04:30:29 PM »
Geez, the television coverage has been awful this afternoon, they only show like one or two cars across the block and then go to lengthy commercials and the commercials are the same loop of Velocity channel advertisements over and over. I was seeing more commercials than actual auction and missing cars I wanted to check out. I got sick of it and shut it off and will watch it over the internet later to avoid the crap.

I think I hear the name "Barrett Jackson" mentioned every 10 seconds.
72 Cuda, owned 25 years. 496, with ported Stage VI heads, .625 in solid roller, 254/258 at .050, 3500 stall, 3.91 rear. 850 Holley DP, Reverse manual valve body.

1999 Trans Am, LS1, heads, cam, headers, stall, etc! Love to surprise the rice rockets with this one. They seem so confident, then it's "what the heck just happened?"

Can't stand the ads. really turns me off of the show. 

Not only are they making everyone in the world think their car is a 30K car, but I am inundated with more "buy this" or "watch this" ads.

I hate commercials.

Actually, make that a BILLIONAIRE toy store.  Being a millionaire doesn't cut it anymore.

That's what the DVR is for. "Taped" 8 hours and watched it in less then one.  That Bandit Trans Am was pretty cool but Mopar prices are way down.
