Already set my DVR!! Can't wait to watch....

 

Something like that eh man? Well you're still enjoying it I see
Same here... I at least saw things done in an RS I hadn't before so hopefully they edit it well

 

Hey folks so a final reminder for tonight's Battle of the Supercars premier show on Speed Channel @ 7-8pm EST.

 

A longer teaser video has been uploaded by the Speed gang. This is a good one!

can't wait to see this! Yee HA

 

Excellent episode and congrats! "Kermit the Frog" took it to Paul and the Ferrari!
Seemed like Tanner had a blast in the GT3. That thing sounds sick.

 

Just finished watching the show.... LOVE ZKermit!

 

I missed it does anyone have it on youtube yet?

Chicktronic you have come a long way since we met, congrats!

 

Pretty good show !! No rides in the aircraft ??? It would have been interesting to have both drivers up and loser pukes first...

 

Greaat show, watched it last night, car sounds awesome!

 

Thanks man!

Here's what she sounded like going down the runway:

Actually.... they offered that we come back for that.... We'd have to stay there and go through some training etc... but yes having us all hurl would of course have been icing on some sort of cake (not a tasty one mind you).

Haha thanks pal... and only backwards my friend!

Thanks Eugene! Me too at least she brought back a win for the Porsche crowd

Thanks so much and yes they both did! They really went at it

A few things we took away from the adventure:
1) TV production is both expensive and tricky. It was so awesome live and so much of the fun didn't make it into the final show but I think they really did do a great job having been there.
2) The US Airforce. Wow... Just wow. Those guys are like clockwork and also real gear heads. Love those guys.
3) I'm super-jazzed that we got a best of 174.9mph in the mile. They did a few different runs but either way a stock GTR does around 165mph so at least we know we're making power. The car isn't aerodynamic but that's a good result.
4) Super happy that on the track section we were about 4-5 seconds quicker.
5) Paul Tracy is a hoot. Amazing driver and means what he says. No joke. Tanner is super-competitive too (as is Paul) and they really were trying to win it for each car. It was funny watching them try to ask the producers for another go and stuff like that....
6) The F-430 is fast in stock form (480plus). It's bloody quick when modified to 510 or so like it was and with the F1 trans and Paul's driving we were up against it. But the 3.9 does make power as one can see

 

We just watched show last night. It was awesome (my kids word not mine). My older son was disappointed with 0-100-0 run results though.
Someone can chime in as what happened there?

 

Hehe thanks and tell him that Porsches are still the way to go

On the braking I think as Paul said it was easier with the F1 to come to a standstill at 100 and gear down too etc... There was also no heat in the front tires on the P-car which was also going faster than 100 when he stopped. They wanted another try/go but there wasn't time

 

Very good take aways Alex. With your big brakes on Kermit, she (I've never called a car he) should stop very fast when doing the 0-100-0... but the Fcar surprised me how fast she can stop.
