Yes sir, but have they made any new episodes since? I really can't stand Pinks but that "All Out" show was cool

Have they made any new episodes?
Yes. Last night was the Season premier of the regular Pinks series. It aired at 8:30 CST. They had a "Making of Pinks" episode that aired before it. Honestly, last nights episode was ok, but the '79 Malibu with the SBC and 90mm turbo was handicapped. In order for the Canadians to agree to race it, they made the Malibu turn down the boost to the lowest setting, disconnect the CO2 bottle and run on wg spring pressure alone. That's not fair, run what ya brung and hope ya brought enough. The Camaro was sand bagging the whole time. The Mailbu guys should have said that they didn't have any lower # wg springs and the lowest it would run was 15psi. That way we would have seen the Camaro truely run all out. They even had Nate go over and look at the Datalog after each run to verify his boost level. Come on! That's ridiculous. Each of the races were close, except the last one. I won't spoil the ending, but probably already have. Sorry. They have made more Pinks All Out races which from what I've read will air around holiday times. I look for them to show one around July 4th. The regular show is getting better, but I do still prefer the All Out version. It's a lot like Index heads up racing which can be fun too.
Here's the schedule.

Looks like the season premier will air today at 9:30 (not sure if that's CST or EST, but probably on right now) and this Sunday at 1:30 AM for all you night owls out there.

look for the pinks allout from firebird in phoenix AZ. 2 tr's made the final 16. d.i.c.k kereny from phoenix, with his killer stage motor black gn and paul from las vegas with his wheel's up launching white turbo t. it was a great time and i cant wait to see it air!
I like the All-Out version much better. You just arent going to see guys put up their pride and joy to be sand-bagged and lose it. It gets tiring to see guys cobble together some POS in a few days only to have it run poorly or break. I would like to see some nice cars running "all-out". It would also be nice if they showed the times and speeds to the at-home audience. I know the show is hokey/corny but it beats the heck out of a lot of other crap on TV these days.
