Personally I'm disliking that they aren't following the rules anymore. They should stick to the vehicles appearing stock and spending ONLY what is in the budget. Oh....and no more that 3 freebies per episode. Otherwise they could build a top competetor in SPL drags on a $3000 budget.
:announcer guy: "...and whats this?! Its a MONSTER freebie package from Kicker! They're getting 10 of the new Kicker Solo-X subwoofers and 5 experimental Kicker 8000watt amplifiers!"
Ugh...I hated the episode with the Mini-Cooper snow mobile. Hello....over $10,000 in freebies! Stick to the rules and minimize the freebies and the show will once again kick-@$$.
