Pretty cool show on TLC all day today.

Kinda late to share it but its on till 3am eastern time so theres still hours left.


Its an hour long show with 2 teams competeing, building stuff to acomplish a task from stuff in a junkyard. All with in ten straight hours of time, and they don't find out the task until just before the time starts.

Right now its build a glider that will glide the longest.

Its pretty cool.

But mostly me and mad dog sit around bitching about what boneheads the contestants are.

Funny thing is they are supposed to be smart people.

Well I guess its harder underpresser or something.

We've had a similar show in the UK for the last few years...Scrapheap Challenge.

Funnily enough, all 3 years champs have been Bikers!

As a confirmed 2 wheel nut since the age of 6, built my first engine at 13, and never been without a bike since, I know exactly why! You either spend a lot of money paying someone else to fix it, or you use whatever you can find! Then there are the roadside breakdowns....fix it or face a long walk....

it does wonders for improvisation skills!

WTG, Actually I think its the same show just renamed for the US, I don't see why but thats marketing.

Maybe cause the US is so wrapped up in war? LOL

Yep I never pay anyone to work on anything of mine.

Well except my amp. LOL That one needed a scope, something I don't own.
