Look forward to seeing your car on the tube. It looks great in the photos.

Any chance the episode will be posted online?

I believe the program is available online via HULU, possibly other sites as well. I'll check into that.

My Ride Rules is available online via hulu.com. I'm not sure how soon new episodes become available after they are broadcasted on TV.

Link: http://www.hulu.com/my-ride-rules

As I was researching I took a look at episode 13 "Super Charge Meets Super Sport", it was pretty good if you want to get an idea.

Thanks

Looks like the link doesn't work for us poor bods outside of the US of A confused At least that's what it says when I click on the link after seeing for a fraction of a second some cars....

Its the US Gvt again, trying to censor the web! There is a massive campaign going on right now, and I have found numerous sites hacked so that you get a huge red notice saying the site is BLOCKED due to copyright infringment! No justification...no details - nothing!

Thes US bods think they can do what they like....

You can view it if you use a US based 'Proxy Server', I was looking at it yesterday (wasnt worth the effort though, a bunch of kids pretending to be petrolheads.)

If you want to view it in Firefox go to 'Tools/Options/Advance/Settings',and select the 'Manual Proxy Configuration' option and use the following IP address and port number 108.9.56.43 Port 6515, dont forget to change it back again after use.
These Proxies get abused and subsequently go offline so if it doesnt work just Google 'US Proxy IP addresses'for fresh ones

I was planning on going with one of their wings as well. At a cost of less than $600 for a CF wing vs the company demanding $2,900!! Ultima has some crazy stupid prices on some things.

LOL! Yeah...right. APR create wings for racing and have been doing that for years. Their quality is great. Even if Ultima LTD's wings are better...certainly they're not $2,300 better. LOL!

All,

New episodes of SPEED's "My Ride Rules" are now airing Tuesday evenings at 10PM Eastern Time. A couple of week's ago there was a 65 Daytona Coupe (very cool track car, not sure if you saw it) and coming up there will be a yellow FF GTM (LS7). Check out this promo video posted. About 20 seconds into the video you will see my green Ultima for a split second coming down the road. You will also see the yellow GTM. Tonight there is 70 Dodge Charger. I'm interested in seeing what the owner has to say about the car. I'm a big fan of the 68-70 Charger.

This video will start about 21 seconds in.

For those in Europe that can't see the replays, we'll try to figure that out.

Please support the automotive industry we all love by going to the My Ride Rules Facebook site at the link below and "Like" to site. Currently, the site has 2,015 likes. Thanks for the support. I would like to see the show continue so other people can show their cars. Why you are on the site check out some of the photos.
