Trying to keep up with all the conversations going on. Ok their was stuff that I see here I think I can clear up. The singing "comin around the mountain" gay but, they were singing it into their handhelds and once a song gets in your head then with no radio you sing it. Next the f-150 went 1st in the challenge the Lotus went 2nd then charger and chevy in that order. It was a different order in the show so when the truck had a dumbass attack! they stopped the challenge and moved the block wall back. The object was, to try and stop before the wall however they had it so close everyone would have hit it with some impact. The ford sustained heavy damage so they never really ran the last leg with us. (Technicality) the ford guys said that the stunt coordinator said it wouldnt do that much damage and he felt it was ok. I was yelling at them not to let him do it but they wanted the shot of the ford busting the wall down. All the while not thinking of AIR BAGS and RADIATORS so Jason was not thinking about anything but how bad *** he would look on TV! This got in his head and you saw the results. They allowed him to make the repairs because they did tell him nothing was going to happen (WHATEVER) So, I told Jason and Jake they should have been gone because that was unessesary and stupid. I also told them the alliance was still in place but use his head. I dont think they took that very well. The whole Dirty Rice/Paris thing they are really nice guys. They should have played it a whole lot more sincere. since they were carrying the flag for TEAM BMW. The comments does them in with the rest of the teams not in a million years that friggin HONDA beats any of the cars left (maybe the Olds) and he aligns himself with team Lotus and gets caught doing the wrong thing (speeding>>>> I should slap myself<<<<< Loved to have been able to speed) obeying the rules they could have gotten a whole lot farther. The next episode should be exceptionally interesting. The reason is the tension you could cut with a knife and pretty much all bets are off. Team Trans Am, well for us would have loved to have done all the challenges so far they are really fun (cant get the Drift of this) well you will next week when we get pulled over... Should be exciting! No I guarantee this will get exciting. I think I **** of the local law enforcement...

MORGAN YOU ARE THE BOMB!

LOVE YA!

DAD

For the rest of you speed freaks thanks for the support!

GO TEAM T/A #09

Lovely - I heard you start raising your voice against the officer, i hope it was a wrongful pull over and a cop not doing his job right.

Is there any way to download the full episode using a torrent file? I tried watching it on Spike but I'm on shitty $20/month DSL from Verizon and it won't stream. It freezes up every 2 seconds and then kicks back in after a bit but it continuously freezes over and over again. I'm so pissed... I was stoked about this episode.

You could also tell that the Lotus boy got a lil scared when he ran up on him!!I personally would never let anyone walk up to me in that manner, It would of been on!!!, "SCREW the 200K" i would of tried to get both RATS!! LOL
Dude that was boiling the whole time. The real dynamic there is, Jason (f-150) is all about pride and works hard for what he gets. He wants to win but within the rules. When team OLDS asks me on the radio about the speeding Lotus and Honda I tell them dont do it, just do the right thing. In the end cheaters get theirs. Jason was trying to accelerate the opportunity with the video thats all, his pride got the best of him because he knocked heads with the Lotus guys. Team Lotus well Brian is very well to do and he was explaining to a few of the guys how he had done this and that and how well off he was (heresay as I didnt hear him say anything of the sort) but this fueled the fires between them. The real story is they were a whole bunch alike TYPE "A" personalities that wanted to win so EGO and PRIDE got the best of their common sense. Being a RAT well I just laughed and sat by the BULLRUN FIRE laughing while Morgan got some rest... very Fun! They forgot this is just a game not personal.

Those F-150 guys ain't from Texas, any REAL Texan wouldn't have got run up on like that and kicked some *** IMO!

Teams were allowed to go 5 MPH over the limit.

I think it comes to a personal level with 200 grand on the line - How was the selection process for the cars made? did you submit or get questioned by anyone?

I've tried searching for ratings for this show and a couple other shows that I watch, but I haven't been able to find that information on net. It seems that Nielsen only posts the top 10 or 20 shows ratings information to the public and you might need to be a Nielsen data subscriber to get ratings for all TV shows.
