Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational -- If you have not seen it before, you need to watch it, great stuff. It takes place each year at SEMA, this is the 2nd year I believe that they had tv coverage. Comes on at 7pm central time.

Just got through watching with me 8yr old son. He loved it. Well, so did I. Makes me want to really get started on mine. Of course, there is no way it will be to that calibur.
Was fun to watch the road course and the brake challenge.

Overall it was a decent show. Watching a '69 Camaro take down a modern day supercar is never a bad thing. :unibrow: Good driving Mark. :thumbsup:
Too much camera time on a great example of horsepower overkill. :D

The coverage was way better than last years. It was cool to put faces to names and the coverage on the on track action was awesome.

I would like to see everybody that is an entrant get a good 15 seconds to introduce themsleves an there car,I think that happened some got cliped in the editing room.That would take up about the first 12.5 minutes of the program.Everybody worked hard to get there, and would like for their family's and friends to see them on TV.Seeing your self and your ride in action make's all that hard work worth it.:thumbsup:

I agree with you they interviewed everyone why not use it? I had more air time in the trailer than the show. I kinda feel like an idiot telling everyone I know to watch the show, I had 50 text messages last night saying that was it?

It would have been nice to see more of the people that raced..many were left out. Perhaps it should be a 2hr show? Pretty cool they go to the trouble to make the show tho!!

Crap, I missed it.

I went to try to DVR it a few weeks ago (DirecTV) and could not find the damn thing, searching under "Optima" "Ultimate" "2010" etc etc.

I gave up and then completely forgot about it. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait until October....
