Anybody hyped about this show. This looks like it could be a fun half hour show to watch: http://speedtv.com/pinks/

Excerpt from the SpeedChannel website:

Pinks
Using the setting of a classic 1950s drag race, PINKS will pit contestants in a best two-out-of-three format, with the loser handing over the title (pink slip) to his or her vehicle.

The rules are simple: two vehicles show up and drivers negotiate any head-start distance (vehicle lengths); vehicles line up, the flagman drops the flag and the first one down the quarter mile wins. After each round, the drivers have the opportunity to re-negotiate lengths. In the end only one thing matters...

LOSE THE RACE...LOSE YOUR RIDE!I'm going to give it a look see.

I saw some episodes of the first season. It's about 2 minutes of racing, 18 minutes of testosterone thumping/screaming/whining, and 10 minutes of commercials. I'd expect much the same mix for this season.

I thought the racing was entertaining, the other parts less so. Overall I found it worth watching if I didn't have anything better to do.
