Was watching Street Tuner Challenge on Speed, just to see what it was about. And at the end, they had about a 3 minute segment about Focus Challange. Pretty sweet. Should air again at 10:30 EST.
But I'm sure you all know about this already.

I don't have speed. I'm pissed. Someone record it for me? Or post up the spot?

I'm sorry... this show is a JOKE (in typical speed format)
Seriously.... lets compare a Cobalt SS and a Jetta Mk V to a FREAKING R32? Then show a focus (one of the hottest I might say) and say "Japan's NASCAR" WTF? ![]() |

Well, here is a first pass at it. I was having some troubles with my software, so the compression is really crappy. I may re-encode it if I feel like it.
EDIT: Okay, this should be a better looking version: http://rapidshare.de/files/2695800/F...Speed.avi.html |

I thought the first episode was pretty good. We'll see how each subsequent episode is put together. Next weeks episode they spend a whole day with the local MINI Cooper owners, Team Mighty Miniz... Many of whom come to our Redline Track Events open track days.
I too am a little perplexed as to how/why they will compare a 2005 AutoTragic Jetta to a Skyline... |

I thought the show was cool and very good exposure. I saw my car out there and that was cool. Now I can say that me and one of my cars have been on SPEEDTV....very nice though. Can't wait to see more coverage.
