[302 LX Eric]

I sat on the couch, drank a few beers and just shook my head during most of it.

Oh, where do I start...

Near the beginning, I don't know if anyone else picked up on this, but the guy with the Japanese VTEC whatever right-sided driver setup deal-E-O stated that he has about $60,000 in the car. I about fell off the couch and spilled my beer. Don't worry, I didn't spill the beer.

$60,000 for a 220 HP 4-banger...........ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?! The F-ing thing wouldn't even start, then on top of that he blew up the ultra-high tech Japanese motor. Absolutely some of the best entertainment I've seen on TV in a while.

There was another snipet where I think it was the guy with the 4-door Integra was talking about how he crosses the finish line "at like 110 mph." All I was thinking is that they must have been racing the 1 mile, instead of the quarter mile.

The other thing that really struck me as funny was the 'Transmission Graveyard." I've never seen so many busted tranny's - and I thought the T5's were weak...

All in all it was some good entertainment. The banter amongest the racers was probably the best part.

Oh, and Will never got his $500, maybe that was the best part.
