After viewing every single episode to date. FocusSport hands down has been very professional and shown nothing but the level of class they exemplify themselves into. I for one can't wait to see the finish product/results, when I saw that orange focus roll onto the floor; all I can say is WOW! Well-done focussport.

I somehow doubt they're gonna give us dyno numbers tomorrow night.... its probably just the "and here are the cars!" and then cut to girls at the carshow.


Cockteases!

I was told no more girls for the last two episodes, but we'll see. And from what I heard the last episode is ALL track day, no show stuff.

Yeah the car show crap has got to go. It's "Street Tuner Challenge," not "Street Tuner Magazine on TV."

I wouldn't mind it if the show were an hour long, but there's too little garage content and too much car shows. I agree--that's not what this show is for. There are other shows you can watch for that, like "NOPI Tunervision" or whatever it's called.

None of which are a competition between three different garages. That's what this show should be focusing on.

Ha ha I said Focus.

They also seem to be stuck in perpetual reruns.

EDIT: Sorry, I meant that those other car shows mentioned (the few that I was ever interested in) seem to be stuck in perpetual reruns.

gosh that annoyed the crap out of me!!!

i came in an hour late, so went to the recorded one to watch (which is nice without commercials)....and friggin Barret Jackson was on a marathon.

....so i scan ahead, and they have the NEW title for the show airing 7am on thurs....aight, i'll just record that one and watch it after work. i get home, and it's an old episode with the wrong title!

anyhow, at least i didn't miss it, i woulda been pissed

I looked yesterday. The next episode airs on the 23rd and the last on the 30th. Both are Wednesdays just like the past.

Or maybe just a trainwreck of an episode? They just installed audio in the Evo (again? I could have sworn they already did that), showed they'd paint the Focus orange after comercial, then showed they'd do a media evaluation of the Mini?!?
