Got my Pinks film date!!!!!!!!
 

Finally, its a done deal. I will be at Kansas City International Speedway on August 10th at 2:30pm to film my episode. Man am I geeked for this one....

Only way it would be better is if it was on water!

What are you racing?

Pictures?

Congrats. I love that show.

How long had you been trying?

Cool! Don't forget to post closer to the date for us senile old f'ers that forget easily. Best of luck.

Very cool! Congrats.

The car club I own and run challenged a rival Michigan car club. Sort of a east (them) vs west (us).

We built a 89 Mustang GT with a reworked LS1. Little spray, little forged, little transbrake :D

Should air this winter. I will post up some pictures when its back from the paint shop. Right now its UGLY with a capital U!

My paint guy out here in OK did the black mustang with real fire. Took home the wooly mammoth car and the honda civic that they returned to him. Good luck

awsome and gotta love chevy power, in things that arn't chevys.. Don't forget to slap a OSO sticker on it.... Can' wait to catch the show

John

Make sure you wear an OSO shirt and get some OSO stickers on the car. :D

Very cool-

I did two seasons of the Street Tuner Challenge on SPEED- It was a lot of fun.

I don't get the Chevy in a Ford "thing"........:confused:

Is it a joke?....

Wooly Mammoth never ran right after Charles sold it to the other guy who raced it next.

We were going to race on PINKS last season but ended up doing something different.

Good luck. Charles (Tech adviser) on the show is a good friend of mine. Hopefully, you get him on your side.

It's called going fast on a budget. :p

It's called not having a clue how to make a ford run fast.So what people do is drop in a GM create motor in a ford platform.

Not a joke. Many street rods, customs and race cars that have classic Ford bodies have Chevy power.

Why, you ask?

Availablity
Adaptability
Power-to-weight ratio
More bang for the buck
More aftermarket parts
Breathes better at all RPMs

The list goes on and on. Why do you think all the major marinizers use Chevy power?

Going fast on a budget is the key. When we agreed to the race, we said it had to be Grass Roots style. No dropping the car off at the go fast shop. Had to be done as cheaply as possible.

The car was given to us as a shell, and the majority of our members are running some form of the LSx based motor. The block was donated, the Lunati Rods, and Mahle pistons were donated, the intake was laying in my garage, the coils were in my garage, etc..........

It made it cheap. And besides, the LSx motors are much better at breathing then the Ford motors. Easier to make them fast IMO.

Dont worry, the car we are racing against is a 351 on the squeeze in a 81 Thunderbird. So you still get your Ford fix, and hopefully I can take their junk home :D

Best of Luck to you hope you when there Junk like you said.

We're all in your corner. Go kick some ass and take names later!

Where can I get the OSO stickers? We have whored the car out pretty well so far, but I KNOW I have room for a OSO decal on there somewhere.

Too Cool!

I will be watching for sure!

Good luck!

Tom

What was the out come of this? Any video?

Awfully quiet. Maybe the Chevy in the Ford didn't work out so well after all? :grinser010:

We actually took the first 3 of 7. But lost the last 4 in a row with the final race decided by a fender at about 147mph. Good races, and alot of people say I gave them the car, and that may be true. Guess you will just have to look for it. Season 5 episode 2 I believe. Kansas City, Rick vs Quentin

Awesome! I love that show as well...I'll be looking for the episode...if you find out exactly when it's gonna air, post it. Congrats on having the nuts to do it!

It was just on.....

PINKS was a great show. It's run it's course though and they are done for a while -possibly permanently.

PINKS All Out is running strong though and is taping shows in Engilshtown, NJ on July26th - Denver, CO on August9th - and Infineon Raceway Sept6th for anyone who is interested in showing up. The events are huge -drawing 20,000 spectators. Loads of fun.

Grassroots Drag racing at its best!

ps- New Season of PINKS All Out begins next Thursday July17th 9et /10pt

I heard they're moving this to Barganet Bay (sp?) and doing "Pinks - All Water".:evilb:

Somebody will win a "200K triple loan boat" with their budget "sleeper" HAHA.:food-smiley-007:
