TV programs?

Why isn't initial D on TV and for that matter why isn't GTO


has anyone seen that stupid Import show on Speedvision its totally dedicated to the sponsor (FORD???) and honda's

where the heck are the nissans the mitsy's the Subaru's ? ?? ? what about the Supra's? i say that because the US corolla is junk :P cuz i had one along with a volvo to drive!

it has no variation and the girls have no clue what they be talking about i mean why even bother i don't want to see some two bit silly tart talking about cars when she is just there to look at in skimpy clothes ....... nooo if i wanted to do that i'd buy a low rider magazine .....

i wanna see Races

Drifting
the japanese drift scene the wangan seen but noooo they have to have car shows all the time ..........NO ON THE STREET ACTION WHATSOEVER !


I mean come on at least one car should be moving that isn't a full stripped out drag car ....
I wanna see street cars bombing it down the track





some reason i prefer the domestic shows like Dream Car Garage , My Classic Car with Dennis Cage and Hot Rod TV....... Top Gear is good in england!


The import one doesn't show any of the Twin Turbo's off!


Anyone know who Tiff Needle is?

Amen! I hate that rice show on speedvision. The sad thing is, some ricer in the "street racing" forum is probably touting it's virtues right now...

I watch all the hotrodding shows, mainly cuz I'm a hotrodder...

yea i like the hot rodding ones too


i mean i like civics when they are done nice ........but i think rice may actually exist some times i see a civic and want to hurl other times i see a well done civic and jump for joy

but that show never shows anything else from domestic corn cobblers to civics

NO FREAKIN NISSANS ? WHATS UP WITH THAT?

I saw him drifting a Ford Puma if you will believe it... well, not so much drifting as just cornering hard. It was full of top gear people too...
