Somebody said, "If Jerry Springer produced a drag racing show, PINKS would be IT!"

I only wish I'd said that...

Can you imagine the harm done to the image of legitimate "class racers" everywhere by this show and its non-stop parade of unfortunate individuals who bring this junk to appear on national TV?

THIS show is the only exposure that many folks get to drag racing. They are led to believe, by simply watching it, that these "racers" are representative of the kind of people whose hobby is drag racing. I think the image portayed on "PINKS" has set legitimate drag racing's image back about 50 years...

What a shame...
