Default Would you race for pinks for your 15 minutes of fame?

New reality show on SpeedVision™

Real racers, your time has come.

Illegal street racing takes place everyday. That's fine. But I'm interested in hardcore racers willing to put it all on the line ... on television.

That's why I created PINKS™. It's old school, honest, winner take all racing. Big risk, big reward. You lose the race, you lose your vehicle ...period.
And it doesn't matter what you race ... a car, motorcycle, snowmobile ..whatever. PINKS™ is about the racers who have the balls to put up their ride ... for real. Safe, honest, flag drop, negotiate lengths, quarter mile track, best two out of three.

We are shooting PINKS™ at an empty drag strip in October.

I am looking for serious racers who are willing to hand over their title. You MUST hand over your title. No exceptions!

Please no posers or stolen vehicles.
Finally, I heard there is a movement out there amongst speed junkies who are turning scrappers into rockets. I’d love to talk to you.

Call PINKS™ at 615-356-1920!

Real racers ... This Show's For You!!!

I have been racing for many years now and seen some crazy shit. From a $50 race to a $26,000 race but never a pink slip winner takes all race. I ride a motorcycle and will race for big money but never a pink slip. To much time and money invested. If you change the format of your show you would get a better turn out. Maybe a $2000 up per pass or something. Will you let us know how many serious calls you get on this pink slip race?

Drivers meet at a neutral location in the pit area where they can each look over, sit in, start and rev the engine and thoroughly check out their competitor's vehicle ... like its their own!

PINKS™: THE SHOW


Racer number one pulls in and is directed to the staging area...on screen his name, hometown and his vehicle ... he is greeted by PINKS™ host Rich Christensen.

He introduces his posse and we look over his vehicle as he explains what he has in this bad ass ride!:WTF is a posse?!? Well, I'm running two bottles, and that's all I'm telling you

Then driver two pulls into his staging area and we repeat the meet and greet. The two racers make eye contact for the first time. oooooooooooooo!

Cameras are on the drivers at all times.
This show would be very boring with me, I'd be there by myself, leaning on the car, letting the other guy talk himself into some shit
Drivers meet at a neutral location in the pit area where they can each look over, sit in, start and rev the engine and thoroughly check out their competitor's vehicle ... like its their own!
I would kick the everloving shit out of someone if they got in my car at the street races
Drivers CAN have their posse with them.
To help kick the everloving shit out of the asshole that just got in your car
We cover all of the action ... banter, comments, we learn everything that we need to know about each driver ...
I already know one thing, they're gay for being on this show
The drivers line up and watch each other's practice run ...
This is the part where you purge the hell out of the nitrous kit, then make a half throttle motor pass
Then vehicles are lined up at the start line and Rich has the drivers come together and begin the first negotiation ... distance, start, vehicle lengths etc ...
You're boostin' yo, I need five cars and we'll go on the 15th horn honk
Prepare for the race.
The drama continues
Race ONE begins.
And takes approximately 30 seconds as the floor boards come apart and welds blow from the Nawzzz
Both racers go back to start line ... comments and reactions ... drivers agree on winner of race one and negotiations begin for race two.
I forgot to double clutch yo, give me another car this time and the 16th honk
Drivers prepare for the race.
Hooker comes out and offers a ghonorea infection to the winner
Race TWO begins ...
This time something really does blow, car comes back with smoke and steam pooring out, but he'll be ready for the next race, or running from the cops, whichever comes first, he's hardcore
Repeat for the third race if required.

Winner is declared. Winner gets in loser's car .... drives away.
Why the fuck would I want their broke ass slow car, winner tells loser he owes him a ten second car
We get final comments.Sorry poser lost because he wasn't double clutching yo
And hollywood's destruction of a national pastime continues I better round up my posse
