    Got my email today. Sounds like the latest installment of "My Ride Rules":

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Hi,

    At this stage of casting, we need for you to submit a short 2-3 minute video answering the questions below on camera (youtube/vimeo link, or emailable .mov file is fine). NEED ASAP



    This video will determine if you move forward in the casting process. We’ll need this sometime this week!



    The more OUTRAGEOUS you are the better. We’re looking for bold, ****-talking redneck drivers to kick some import butt.



    - What's your name, where do you live and what do you do for a living?

    - Why do you think American made muscle cars are better than imports?

    - Have you ever raced against an import? Did they win and do you want revenge?

    - What do you think about these Import drivers? (let the smack-talking out)

    - What does your car have that makes you think you can outrun an import? (Here’s where you can brag about what you got)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    See... this is what I spected' I can see one way it might get interesting (following may be offensive..) ;-)

    - What's your name, where do you live and what do you do for a living?
    "I'm Bambi. I dance but not in a ballet sort of way. I live with my fiancee up in McClellanville. We have some dogs, pitbulls. I like dogs."

    - Why do you think American made muscle cars are better than imports?
    "Everyone knows that american cars are better than imports. You mean like Hondas and Chryslers? They're both imported from Detroit right? I saw it on TV. I think they're better because they are. My torn denim shorts.. see here (points to self). They're bought in Walmart. Walmart is american, that's why it's better."

    - Have you ever raced against an import? Did they win and do you want revenge?
    "I'm not racist at all! I don't discriminte neither. I would never get mad at someone and want revenge. I like all kinds of people."

    - What do you think about these Import drivers? (let the smack-talking out)
    "They don't tip as well as the other guys. "

    - What does your car have that makes you think you can outrun an import? (Here’s where you can brag about what you got)
    "I run REALLY fast. In high school I was on the cross country team..."

    I think tickets are $300 per person. You can send a check to my adress at .... :)

    Well, if I do get picked I'll post up the details. I wouldn't think there would be any admission charged but who knows? They might not let the public in for "confidentiality" reasons, but again- who knows?

    I kind of think they'd want the event to be private so results won't hit the Internet before the show airs. We'll probably have to sign a contract so when you win nobody finds out or they'll DQ you.

    Carolina Motor Sports Park has all next week blocked for a private event, so I get the feeling they are filming various segments, possibly all related to "Are You Faster Than A Redneck".

    Well, I am "in" for this event- for better or for worse! Signed my life away with about thirty pages of disclaimers, waivers, etc. I am told not to expect any huge royalty checks from SPEED... :)

    The production company says it is a closed set, as they want to keep the results a surprise.

    Wish us well!

    Good one.

    Ya know, they might just put me in the Redneck group. I should've asked. :) Sounds like it will be fun. I'd love to write more, but I have been sworn to secrecy. Don't need any black helicopters circling my house.

    As DCNSX said we can not elaborate further but my 911TT could not be finished in time even though I worked on it until 4AM Saturday. I'll be bringing our 140k miles family truckster. The X5. Should be a blast.
