Adventures In Real Life

Friday, November 24, 2006

Yesterday afternoon was spent over at my Mom and Dad's. For a good portion of the day, all I did was work nonstop on the photo memorial board for Grandma K memorial services coming up on Saturday. It was nice, Brother K was there and him and I just hung out and watched tv. Now at home we just get on-air TV. So just the local stations and that is a good thing, however at Mom and Dad's they have Satellite TV and have an amazing assortment of channels . Fortunately I was working on something but we must of sat and watched 8 or 9 back to back eposides of Pinks. I had never heard of this show before, the concept is simple, two guys or teams call Pinks, say they want to race, the tech crew does their best to match them up and they race. It's a best 3 out of 5 drag race, done street style. Most of the guys that race have 2 weeks to build a car to run. Oh, and the most important part of this show, you lose the race, you lose your ride. We might just have to make a weekly guys night around this show. There was two eposides we watched were it was all of my brothers, my Dad and myself and we were yelling and high five-ing. You know like what most people do for football we do for motorsports. It was fun, I hadn't seen that much race action in a long time! It made a task that was hard but I wanted to do a little easier.

Well I came in to work this morning and still was thinking about Pinks and found this video. Its a 1200 hp mustang, listen to this thing get on the turbo.

Update: So looking through the Pinks website I found Pinks the Games. This is a great way to waste a couple of hours. BTW 10 seconds goes by faster than you think.
