Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

I hate Pinks.

This episode sounded like a joke to begin with.
20 cars?? Don't race.

Yeah, I agree. I hate watching it.


From what I gather reading the forum is that the T/A driver sold the Civic back to the guy for $300. To cover the cost of his tranny rebuild.

Seems pretty noble.

Guy who built the T/A:

Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

I couldn't hear it cuz it's muted here at work, but that civic just didn't have the stones. Yep... 20 lengths is retarded. They should have run what they brung straight up. The TA was simply badass though and the driver knew what he was doing. Looked like the Civic sorta bogged the launch on last race, but slicks saved him...

Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

Episode was a joke. Civic was a joke. The driver was a joke...all together, considering it was one big joke, I didn't even get a cheap laugh.

Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

The trans am driver said that the Civic did make 600hp, the driver just sucked really bad.

Guy who won the civic, dyno'd it the next day and it put down 520whp... then sold it back to the kid for $300.

Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

why put that much power to the ground if you can't ever hook up? saying you drive a 600 hp civic is cool to brag about but not if it all it can do is spin tires. all that power and the kid didn't even use a tranny with a lsd? nice one wheel burnouts, we're all real impressed.

Red, nice find. I actually was watching this the other day, and had to leave halfway through to give my brother a ride to work. Needless to say, I had better races on teh way, but I still wanted to see how it ended.

A+ to the TA driver who sold the car back.

Re: PINKS: Boosted Trans Am vs Boosted Civic

Episode made me laugh my ass off. Who the fuck asks for 20 car lengths??? That's just retarded, and the kid should've had slicks on to begin with. What retard has a 520whp Civic, is betting for pinks, and runs on rinky tink street tires?

I'm happy the TA owner murdered his car on TV. The civic owner atleast had the cojones to enter his car in the race though. Heck, he should be happy the TA owner was soo cool, giving him his car back for $300. I still recall the civics crew acting like the T/A owner's crew had cut their boost line.
