  1. Not true, cable/sat networks do not have the same new programming schdule as OTA net works, the summer has been filled with new series on alot of the networks like USA/TNT/TBS/COM. The thing you are forgetting is that SpeedTV is or was to be about racing, racing does not take a break during the summer months, there is plenty of stuff out there that SpeedTv could fill the time slots with programming, but they chose not too. They keep getting rid of any show that cost them money, and stick to buying reruns from other networks because its cheaper. I
  2. Welcome to the new SpeedTV It would take half the night for me to explain what is going on, but to sum it FOX who owns Speed, is thinking about flipping the Speed Tv to an all sports network to compete with E$PN, so right now, they dont want to spend any money on making their own programing. The people in charge seem to think that NASCAR shows during the week other then Race Hub would get any viewers, and here is an itersesting tidbit about Race Hub, NASCAR had to force Speed Tv to create a Mon-Thur NASCAR program, it was put in the contract, at first Speed said no to it or any other weekly NASCAR show So and all honesty, no really knows why its all reruns of crappy automotive shows on Speed, but if you really care, here are some links for you to read, and you get a lot more insight as to what I am saying. There is also a rumor going around that Speed is dropping F-1 race coverage, I can not find alot of info on that right now, so I am not sure where that is coming from. R.I.P.

  5. So a rat rod is not something used to get rid of rats ?
  6. I have been thinking about getting this one, sucks about the a pillars
  7. Nice job on it Dan, it look likes the top part of the roof in middle is dipping down, was that like that on the 1:1? or is that the resin just losing its shape?
  8. I finally got this one finished up, this is a reissue of the Revell Jaguar, this kit was the Austin Powers Shaguar kit, I almost did do this one with the union Jack paint scheme, but decided a dark green was more fitting. Paint is Model Master Emerald Green Metallic lacquer . I have to say this is a very ill fitting kit, or I am not really good at building models , I wanted to just get it finished, and in my rushing, I manage to get super glue on the windscreen
  9. Not alot , the common age on here is 50+, and sad truth, thats the only age the American companys care about Well I am pretty sure they are going to regret that when their bread and butter customers are no longer around, and whats left is my generation, the one before me,and the one Nick is in, or is nick in the one after that, hmmm Anyways, they should be praying that we will still be wanting to buy their rehashed over 100 times reissues I dont really think reissues of 57 chevys are going to be keeping them in the black in 20-30 years, but again, I what do I know, I am just guessing. I really do hope that this hobby will not die off, and I dont think it will, it may change, but I dont think it will go away that quickly, but say it lasting another 50 years, I dont know,
  10. I have seen one of the road, not sure how I feel about it yet
  11. Hobby Link Japan has for $40.87, but its on back order at the moment Hobby search Japan has it for $45.63

  14. This is becoming a chain thread Not even sure that makes any sense, all I could think of
  15. So does this count as going off topic?, I mean, in away, parts of a bike are still be disused
  16. Nice G
  17. I can attest to it cleaning clear windows, on real life glass windows, I had to use it a few weeks to get off all things, over spray off of my car windows, it was the only thing that would remove the flim on my windows. I had to do this, as I am a moron and paint in my garage when my car is in it

  21. I can get this one finished up, the wheels made it to me today Now, I am going to be making some changes to them, this was the closet to the style I have on the one in the pic, so I am going to remove the inner ring that is on them, like this and here is a quick mock up now trying to decide what tires to use, the kit tires or the ones that came with the wheels, on left is the kit tires, right ones that came with the wheels
