Caught it from start to finish. Very impressive cars from that era. The new Berger SS was pretty wicked.

I thought the show was nicely done. I can tell they are on a new season of shows because the intro music has changed. The show will run again next Wednesday at 5:00 PM Pacific time.

The show focusing on SLP can't be too far off!

Cody, I'll see what I can do.

BTW, I thought the participants were all going to receive personal copies. I hope that eventually happens.

Did anyone catch Dream Car Garage on Speedvisions over the weekend? The directors choice car was Dale Earnhart Jr's number 8 car. They did a little humor (or is it humour since it is a Canadian show) skit where the NC State Police tracked down the host who was driving Jr's car. He caught him in a B4C Camaro police car. They talked about the training of the NC State Police and how effective the B4C was. It was cool.

Funny you mention a Camaro Police Car.
I used to live in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and they use Camaros as Fast-running Sheriff cars (complete with light bar).

Sorry, I do not have any pictures. But nice to know the Sheriff chose the camaro as the FAST chase car.
