When I was young, my uncle took me and my family out to see a drag race. I was a little kid, and the noise got to me then, but I really liked watching the cars roaring down the track, loving how fast they went. I remember one car losing control, and slamming against the wall. The driver was okay, though. But, those cars were the ones with the really long noses. Fun to watch, but a bit odd for me.

One thing I never really talk about that much is just how much I love watching fast cars. It’s why I enjoy most decent racing games (Metropolis Street Racer, for example).

While I enjoy the games, there are people out there who love doing it for real. I may never be able to compete in their league, but that’s fine with me. I get to watch Drag Racing Clips of guys going head to head, and put their car up as booty for winning.

Check out PINKS, on SpeedTV.com:
Lose the Race? LOSE YOUR RIDE.
The best part is, on Thanksgiving Day (that’s the 23rd of November for those of you outside of the US), there’s going to be an ALL DAY marathon AND the premiere of PINKS All Out. So, skip the Turkey Day pigskin tossing, and watch these guys get behind the wheel.
Someone’s going home without a car. Find out who, next Thursday.
