UPDATE: The Honda broke an axle completely out. Hey, Honda is a great idea but NOT for the dragstrip.

Was pretty funny, trans fluid all over the track. They took the car. They intend on fixing and selling for $.

The Honda kid looked sooo dejected.

Yeah, its a show called 'Pinks' on speed TV. Basically, 2 car race each other, with the winner getting the loser's car. Its 5 races, with each team working out a handycap for each race. For instance, a slow honda may request a 30-length headstart against a mustang, and the mustang team may agree to that, but only if the honda looses the nitrous, and on an on...

I'm not a huge fan, but i'll watch if there are some cool cars racing. And by the way, almost any car can race, so its pretty wide open.

I watched the show, but the car was a Mustang in name only. They opened the hood and it had a CHEVY SMALL BLOCK ENGINE . WTF WERE THEY THINKING. It even had Bowtie valve cover's. They didn't even try to hide them. Then Honda team were being real crybaby's asking for like 15 lenght's or some such nonsense. I hate it when they have Ricer guy's on there who don't race at least with some brain's. Other then that most show's are really good and fun to watch.
