He should come here so I can ask him how he thinks he is getting 400 hp from just a tuner and exhaust!

One of the funniest things also is how they show them partying at the end of every episode. Hmmmmm lets create a show with hot chicks, nice cars, speed, and partying. And lets have a professional wrestler host it.

I wonder how many hours the suits had to come up with this idea? Of course I will try not to miss an episode.

This was his response when called out on the other forum about having 400 hp.
I see that there are some opinions about my vehicle knowledge. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. When playing poker do you let everyone know what is sitting in your hand? the answer is no! I didn't get on the show by being a complete moron. I had series of tests thrown my way day by day during the casting for this show, and I beat out a few hundred thousand teams who applied. I hope everyone is enjoying the show cause its only going to get better, and all F150 owners will be proud!

I would think in a show like this, it wouldn't matter if you had 200 or if you had 800 hp. You might and stress might get to the end of the stages quicker with the 800 hp, seeing you are on public roads with the chance of getting caught. Staged or not I can't see any law enforcement agency out there willing to "bend" the law for this show if it will in anyway endanger the public.

It's not a dyno competition. If anything you want something that is fast and good on fuel. Even if his truck did have 400 hp he isn't going to be getting 30 mpg. IMO anyone who has a sniff about these trucks would know he could possibly be bluffing.

I hope he does well for the blue oval camp!

Smiggs is exactly right. Sounds like he doesn't have a real answer for the 400 HP.

The Lambo got eliminated and the F150 got third. The Lambo guys are just chickens. Their clutch was fine, they just didn't want to bang up their car anymore. Atleast if they won, they would have had the money to fix it up, but instead they just gave up. I thought the BMW guys were done after that burnout, but I guess those are some smart cars. It shut down because it was getting too hot. The Olds. and Lotus guys are really starting to annoy me. I hope they go next.

i watched it last night for the first time, the guys who were driving the m3, and doing burnouts like they were jimmy johnson at martinsville, were killing me. i was like woooaaaaaaaaaa with the burnout and then the thing shut off, i was like what a moron........he should have dropped the thing into second and feathered it, if he was going to plan on doing one for 2 minutes.

the mexicans are funny, two eps were on last night i had never even heard of the show before...pretty good.

I think its funny how the lambo got beat in the slolum challenge by the F150, even if they don't have 400hp in there truck there doing surprisingly well for a truck against all these other relatively fast cars, also considering how it's a 6000lb truck.
