He’s coming baaaaack!

The Agent heard from TV drag racing producer Rich Christensen of Pinks and Pinks All Out fame that he has come up with a new drag show for TV. He is going to call it “Hook” and it will be drag racing indoors!

Christensen explained that he wants to have sixty-foot drag races in indoor arenas around the country that would be televised. Rich told the Agent he would probably have an eight-car qualified field with the cars picked similarly to the way they were on Pinks All Out.

In order to accommodate both the indoor racing and put all the racers on a level playing field he will not allow burnouts but dry hops would be mandatory. Christensen said there will be minimal track prep so that cars aren’t going 100 mph plus in 60 feet and then trying to stop in a couple of hundred feet.

The Agent would pay 20 bucks or so to sit inside watching drag racing in a controlled climate with an adult beverage during the winter and wouldn’t care if the distance is just 60 feet. Drag racing is drag racing, right? Interested parties can contact Christensen at rich@richchristensen.com.
