Fox bodies are cheap to build and most guys don't want to build an LS car just to give it away.
Why waste time watching Pinks ?

how many other shows are dedicated to drag racing? How many of those shows travel across the country? How many are trying to keep drag racers looking GOOD, instead of like street racing punks?
Thats why.

On the street and in real Drag racing you don't get best 3 out of 5.
It's about Cash $$$ and you get one shot and that is it. So your either a good BS artist or you can drive like the devil.

That said I do like the Pinks All Out Shows much better.

the episode with the 2 brothers was great... the guy in the 99 SS said at the time it was the fastest 6 speed in the world...I wonder what the dollar amount it took to make that car what it was..That car pulled great wheelies too

That was the Tosto brothers. Good race. He was the fastest at the time but I don't think he holds that record anymore. A 400+ ci engine spinnin past 8000 rpm better be quick!

I see the occasional LS1 f-bod on all out. They just usually don't make it past the 16 or 8 round b/c other guys with 2 or 3 speed autos and transbrakes are more consistent hitting their number.

Yeah they're discontinuing Pinks, but keeping Pinks All Out. Pinks All Out is coming to the Seattle area this August, and I know a lot of guys in this area plan on going. I'll probably try to make a run... even if it is a 13 second one

It's more fun if you're with other people guessing times.
