I have what may sound like a crazy idea to alot of people but i am gonna throw it out there anyway. What about a pinks all out bracket race? Figure out how many cars the track will hold and allow that many entries, first come first serve. Two time trials and everybody who is not broken after that runs 1st rd. No buybacks. Super pro guys sorry no crosstalk or else it would just be 16 dragsters at the end. When you finally whittle it down to 32 or 16 cars then bring in the bald headed punk w/the t shirt that is too small and let him run the tree and make all of his stupid little comments that show just how little he knows about drag racing and then you might have a show. I personally think it would be entertaining to watch a 15 second street car being run down by a 7 second dragster. In car videos of people playing the game at the finish line would also be fun to watch. People who down bracket racing and scream heads up racing is the way to go are crazy. That is a game for people w/ money not driving ability. At a bracket race 8 or 9 times out of ten the best driver or one of the best drivers usually wins but not at a heads up race. At a bracket race the playing field is leveled and everybody has a chance. How could that possibly not be entertaining tv?

Flat out Racing with Billy shown doing the pre race tear down would be a show in itself. Colorful conversation and a lot of Bleeps to say the least. Any show needs Colorful Personalities. Who else would you choose to be as Colorful?

I agree with everyone here that the format is cheezeball...but its better than watching soap operas or some survival show. Pinks has trickled into canada in the form of Arm Drop Live...instead of one big group for 10k they ask us racers if we would like to split up the 10K and have an 9,10,11,12 second classes and it works out pretty good. Last arm drop we had rain and rich couldnt stay for sunday to finish the race because he had a hair appointment so his boyfriend Brian Bossone (clown) ran the race and we used the tree (.100 pro tree, very hard) and it was pretty good. I ended up winning but got dq'd for having someone else drive my car on a rain aborted run...whatever. They really should stop looking for brake lights and start weighing cars...its not hard to put a fender on someone and ride the brakes just enough to stay ahead. Its the meat heads that let off of ram the brakes or burp the gas screw themselves.
