    Pinks is good for a laugh now and then.

    I cannot stand that damn Unique Whips. That fat fuck who owns that place is an idiot. Mind you hes been a successful idiot, but . . .
    Nascar is complete and total garbage.
    I will watch Unique Whips and 2 Mens Garage occasionally.

    Dave did you see the episode of Unique Whip when his fat ass got scammed :), some guy had a car delivered and they did it up and they gave it back and never paid. HaHa.

      Look at it as a spec racing series that cost 30 million a year to be competitive.

      It honestly is just a extremely fancy Spec series.

        Speed is part of basic cable here (even though we have have digital/premium cable), but I haven't watched it in years. It was great when you could see Motorsports Mundial, BTCC, motorcycle grand prix, etc.

              I'm not a big fan of Dennis Gage, but i do watch the show now and then. I like at the end where they are hauling his car around on a trailer. Cars are ment to be driven, and not to be trailer queens. Unless they have very very low miles on them.

                I used to overnight in a hotel for my job every other tuesday. The cable in the hotel had speed channel, and I used to watch two-wheel tuesday everytime I was there. No rally blows though. Just gotta download the races now.

                  I'd rather watch them on my computer, anyway. No commercials, and instant replays whenever the fuck I so please.

                    I just hate his personality, just makes me wanna punch him. He gets waaay too overly excited about everything.

                      There needs to be another channel. A few years ago Speed Channel had some good stuff ...

                      Legend of Motorsport
                      Dakar Rally (now on OLN?)
                      F1 Decade
                      WRC
                      Victory by Design
                      F1
                      Behind the Headlights

                      What can I say, I'm a sucker for vintage footage, and I don't give a fuck what happens at 6 hrs before a Nascar race. I understand showing Nascar races ... people enjoy that, but I don't understand the shows before, after, and between Nascar races.

                        He's pretty much a tool with a unique moustache. He's still a better MC than some of the other guys they have on Speed.

                              Dirty jobs is alright, but for those with the Science Channel, you will agree...

                              "How It's Made" is the best show EVAR.
