what were they thinking when they didnt contact you for a segment dealing with speed and fieros...? they use to be pretty good with getting facts straight and looking into things...but i guess not anymore seeing as how you didnt hear anything from them, and how one of them called it a Ford lol

Wow, just saw this now. you guys are right!!

Arrrg it was like watching Dr Who as a kid and having to wait until next week to see the darliks taking over.........
Nice Mad Max bumper and back to the future air intake.

I looked last night and in my area it will be on 12/16
I just watched the teaser and it looks like they are going to try and skip a Fiero over water like a stone.
with a 100 shot of NOS on a stock motor that car will eather crash or blow up.
RIP! little Fiero, another one bites the dust but at least it gets to do it in style and not just go quietly to the crusher, I guess

I called it right about the cannonball run movie myth. lol

Good I hope they make Fieros look slow! That way everyone will keep sleeping on how fast they can actually be!

"Can a full size car really skip over water like in the movie Cannonball? With a few minor modifications, Tory, Jesse and Grant put their super charged car to the test." I'm sad. My wife said "oh s**t no more watching mythbusters i guess." (i banned CSI from the house due to their fiero indiscretions.) She knows me all too well. If mythbusters damages a fiero i'll be done watching them too. I really haven't missed **** Suckers Incorporated but i will miss watching mythbusters.

very well then.Thank you. now i know how far i can push up the super car options.
Veyron you say? they may have enough EGO, to feel unstoppable.
i was lookin for an angle to work the "SuperCars" over with, but could not think of one.
the Veyron people may believe they are untouchable.....so this may work to our advantage...
ohhhh, this could get good.
only hurtle i see is, that they will want a road course race to either, save face or because they always seem too have road races on the shows.
Gentelman start your engines.
later,

Sounds like it will be the "Hidden Nasties" episode. http://dsc.discovery.com/tv...1.14710.25593.3913.x

sorry but for all of you who seriously stop watching TV programs because of what they do to cars....your a bit out of touch. lol My 1st passion was Z34's and one of my favorite movies is Days Of Thunder. lol. Just busting balls really. Although it does suck that they are gonna wreck a fiero in better shape than my own.
