I saw it, I thought the coverage of the drag racing was horrible. They hardly showed any of it.

Loved it! Agree with Mike the drag racing coverage was light and they didn't cover who won Outlaw Radial or All Motor.

I believe I saw NMass during the engine swap, JR Racing's Mustang gets a nice mention, Preston's third gen, tuff's TA, Robin's Nova, LMR TA, Waterproofer all got some nice shots. Saw Mark K do a partial burnout. Mark's C6Z got a lot of nice coverage.

I saw the horsepower episodes. I can't believe those guys didn't pack a grinder and cracked that block during the engine swap :eyes: I was also suprised they were swapping out that fuel injected BBC in that camaro. Cool episode tho. Hopefully I can take my car to this years meet. :pimp:

ill agree with that.
he said in the 1st segment, "now lets get to some drag racing," and really just showed a seconds worth of each car going down the track, then he mentioned getting to drag racing after the break, but then the show was over.
only 30 minutes, hard to cover everything. only real racers want to watch racing.
tv viewers want to see bling.

all I saw was a slow-mo at the end,lol

I wasn't worried about my stuff as much as was the show giving credit to all the racing winners in all catagories, they didn't even show any full passes or times. They should either do a an hour show for event coverage or spend less time on "drfiting"...which wasn't even an event.

I saw it earlier. I'm sure you can watch it online. Robbie you car looks great as usual and the guy that cracked the block had to feel real bad but I think the other guy deserved to win cause his old motor was busted.

the drifting was cool, but it was over-covered. he called it a mazda, and its a nissan.
since when do either get on horsepower tv? not that im against other makes, but that show is about the big three, IMO.

Agreed, but they showed plenty of the drifting :eyes:

Almost all the magazine coverage has been centered on the racing or on one certain niche of cars...finally all the events got coverage and everbody wines (I guess you cant ever make everybody happy can you?) That tv show isnt about drag racing its about cars...in this case it was about the entire LSfest...I am glad to see they gave fair coverage to all the events going on that weekend.

Yeah would have liked 50% less on the drift car and 50% more on the drag racing but I still enjoyed the episode.

The only complaints I read were they did not show a listing of the events winners and the drifting was at least a third of the coverage. The car show coverage and autocross coverage could have been a lot better if they had not shown all of the drifting. Something that was not even an actual event

I agree with Ray, The coverage of the event as a whole was good, but they had about a 10 minute segment on the drifting which was not even an event. At least they could have listed all the class winners, the only one they named was the nitrous class winner..and there were only 2 cars in the class :confused:

I agree.Very poor coverage of any drag racing.

There was a lil much drifting and could of done more on the racing.

I was super happy with the clip of my car. He almost got the entire 10.09 sec run in the show. Nothing but smiles here!
