Street Outlaws. Are you guys into it
At my local track to watch a buddy TNT on a Sunday night. Track was packed with watchers of this kind of reality TV. Tons of street cars, none of them very fast, with the same crap on the window on every one of them: Pro Tree, No time. Terrible reaction times, slow cars, burnouts in the water box, burnout through the start line with street tires, have to have a "crew to back you up/show you where the start line is, double bulbing the guy in the other lane, etc. etc. The result: 1 pass every 2 hours.
Lots of dope smoking, gambling, spectators in the pits in people's trailers, spectators in the burnout area/start line. I attribute most of this crap to the reality shows like the one you mentioned.
