Man, when will TNN (or Spike or whatever the hell that station is called now) put on NEW episodes? They should make the programs like an hour long too.

Man, I don't know about that.... they do good stuff but letting them have free reign over my truck is a little odd.
"So if you have the guts to let our guys do whatever they want to your vehicle, go for it! When the build-up is complete, we'll contact you by telephone and schedule a date when you can return to Nashville (at your expense) to come pick up your vehicle. Don't be camera shy, because you'll be on TV for the unveiling." -the website
I'd for sure do it if I knew what the hell they were gonna do......

Free is free right, besides the expense of travel....You know they wouldn't waste air time on something lame. You did see the vid of the hotrod truck, granted two wheel drive and no ec so they would probably do something like that, well that level of performance anyway. I would love for my truck to be like parish's old truck. Never saw it but the numbers, omg!!! Can't wait till I get picked

here's another downer to the whole thing, you must have a free and clear title of your vehicle! i am sure not many people have that yet. i know i don't.

I don't know about that... They were looking for a car to test one of Holley's nitrous kits on so I was going to bring one of my Camaros down there so it could be used on the show. They ended up deciding to use an import instead.

Isn't it called HORSEPOWER TV?

The episode that I mentioned aired on Horsepower TV today. Got beat out by a Honda with a big wing. That bad boy layed down 198hp (I didn't catch what jets they were using).
