Cool.. I love Pinks. I would like to go just to watch!

As fucked up as the last two have been out at the Motorplex and with the way Rich shit on the drivers last year and lied to everyone I wouldn't waste a dime attempting to support it. But I figured that someone might care about it.

 

[dagamore]

when did Rich shit on the drivers?

 

[Black Tooth Grin]

When he went in to the drivers meeting and told everyone that they had yet to pick a field and everyone needs to run "all out", bla bla bla because they were going to pick the best field of 32 cars that he and his staff could put together. Then while the drivers were still assembled in the meeting he walked out to "pump up" the audience and gave them this big speech about how he cares about the people that watch the show and he had received hundreds of emails wanting a 12 second field, and that was just what they intended to give them in Dallas that day....

So in the mean time, people are running their asses off for no reason while Rich and his boys already knew what field they were going to pick. And the best part was, they didn't have enough cars. So they pieced together a hodge podge field of 16 cars scattered all over the 12 second range for the taping.

And the icing on the cake was it took the winner hiring attorneys and over 4 months of arguing with Speed TV Inc. before he ever got his tool box.

I met that fucker once and that was enough, he's a glory hound.....He couldn't change a flat tire without help....The only thing you have to do to get his attention is shave your head, grow an unkept goatee and act like a dumb fuck and presto!!!! your hired....

No offence to bald guys.....

 

[dagamore]

ahh ok, thanks i only watch pinks on itunes, do i missed alot of the drama because i cant go to events, i do think it would be cool if they did one here in Germany just so the State could watch a bunch of 10-11 second VW Lupo's/Polo's its kind of painfull to look to the other lane and thing yeah i got this, then hear a 2.5 bar turbo spool up

 

[Chrome61]

Ok, let's see if my engineering degree was worth it...2.5 bar=38 psi? Wow!!!!!

good thing you threw that in there...

 

[US-1]

After what I said to him at the Houston race last year I'm betting he wouldn't let me in the fuckin' gate.

 

[kdesigns]

SD? You? Say something unkind? Naw...

Damn, I missed that story...

Do tell....

SD? You? Say something unkind? Naw...

A difficult concept to imagine, I know. Well Kyle....it involved the bald-headed dipshit saying how great the field was they had chosen. His first mistake was asking what we thought of his choices. As I have been known to do....I let him know. "Your picks suck harder than a french whore during Mardi Gras. You have the most fucked up field of turds I have seen in a long time." And then Rich committed one of the original sins by saying, "What do you know about drag racing anyway?" Duh. Before I could tear his throat out, HRP assistant manager Scott Singleton began rattling off what sounded like a resume of everything I've won in the last 20-odd years. Once Scott was done he told Rich...."So before you open your trap next time you might want to figure out who the hell you're talking to first." To which I immediately added, "Bitch." And Rich turned 47 shades of pissed off and walked away. We laughed at him and drank more beer.

Classic SD right there! Were you trying to get into the field?

 

[US-1]

Nope. I knew better. But Strictly was there with eleven cars and the slowest was 10.21. Not one of them was picked. Rich's reasoning? "The viewers are tired of Mustangs." So you give them primered '72 Novas, Krylon-flat black '70 Chevelles, and one Maverick. Fuckin' retard.

that guy seems like a toolbox and the show sucks but it might be nice to go just for the enviornment...

 

[Mustangfreak]

My boss over here won on an episode. He had a white notch. Can't remember what powered it, but he got everything, the cash and the tool box, and then his shop burned down to the ground. Sad story really.

he's a tool for sure, however I give him credit for coming up with a cool idea and the success that's been attained by the show. I realize he didnt do it alone, but it's heightened the profile of the sport and IMHO that's a good thing.
