It's hard to believe someone would bet $42000 on a drag race especially the way Pinks does it. If I had that much on the line all the track equipment would have to be used. But if that's what you did cool. You are some high stakes gamblers.

I think you're both nutz! I've watched quite a few episodes of Pinks and none of the cars were anywhere near the quality of yours. $42.000 doesn't seem high to me, maybe not enough. I'm sure it cost much more to get it where it is now. I hope it doesn't sell so somehow you get it back and if you do- stay off any more TV shows.

That was the best episode of Pinks I have ever seen!!! No stupid fighting and sandbagging, just hard *** racing every run!

Oh and I searched EBay, couldn't find the auction, so they must not have it put up yet.

Damn if he had only taken back that 1/4 car again. My wife hates that show, well just Rich or whatever his name is lol. She watched the whole thing with me and was into it. Awesome racing guys, Like they said before class act racing.
Far as the 68, **** dude I'd sell it to someone for 42k but put a challenge on the buyer saying he/she would have to race you on Pink's again if they bought it. Race em and win and give it back to your bro. That would be sweet.

Easily the best episode of pinks i have seen yet. You guys have some stupid fast cars, and are both shifting fools. Congrats to Tim and thanks for an amazing show.

Ditto that..... not just worth watching for something to do, but truly a great episode. That one is staying on the TIVO for a long time.

That was a great show. That slack-jawed host was even bearable with the level of equipment and driving being displayed. *** high wheel stands don't hurt either.

...and one more thing, I don't think they should have made you guys "audition" and then sign that dumbass contract to sell one of the cars. Those wannabe's take themselves a little to seriously on that show. Just have your dad buy it for the reserve then buy it from him, and get your brother to cover the ebay fees for the "Tosto Racing" exposure
