    Pinks all out
    « on: November 24, 2006 - 04:27:55 AM »
    Anybody catch it?Different format than regular Pinks.They picked a 16 car field running 10.0-10.5 and matched them up by ET`s and let `em race 1 time heads up.Anyone caught sandbagging was eliminated- $10,000 to the winner.

    Yeah, I caught it last night as well.  I like to new format, but how can they tell if someone is using NOS?  Even just a small boost would give someone a 1/4 car length win over someone else if it got down to it.

    Alot better format though, I enjoy seeing more racing vs. smack talk.

     I don't think nos is a problem.  I believe that you can do whatever is needed to beat the other car, except run under the 10 sec.barrier.  1 car went 9.xxxx and beat the other car, but he was sent home for going too fast.  They are trying to reduce/eliminate sandbagging.....   All in all, I like this format better than the old one.     :cooldancing:

    I caught it also.  It's still a "who sandbags the best" contest.  Bring a 9.7 sec. car,  run 10.0 - 10.5 and dip to 9.9 if you absolutely have to. 

    Still beter than watching ricers beg for 20 cars  :roflsmiley:

    Could be a good show if they wanted it to be. Racin for cash is way better, I missed that show, but it sounds like a better format.

    The first Mopar ever on Pinks debuted on this episode, too bad about the fluid leak it developed as it looked like it was quick!

    there wasm adodge listed to run on the old one, but when I watched the episode they had changed episodes on me.  I think it was supposed to be a truck.

    hey I love the Dodge trucks, but it might have been... one of those snub nose dodge trucks?

    That may have been it, I never got to see it.
