We'll Paul made it on the PASSTIME show on Sat there was only a few stangs there- a lot of Mopars, Novas, etc. It was a blast though- we hung out with the guys from Seneca and had so much fun- Paul finally got to make his pass at 11:30 Sat night we sat in staging from 11 AM till 11 PM- no lie it kept raining then they'd dry the track- then it would rain and filming was so slow.......... he had glamor shots, head shots, inside car shots, it was so funny!!!!!! The 3 questions they asked Paul were Do you run Nitrous? he said yea I was but with the dew falling on the track and the rain I am running on motor- Do you grudge race was his next question- he said depends on my mood- they laughed- then asked what kind of motor- he said 306 cast iron heads stock seats, stock K-member STREET CAR!!!!!!!!!!
It was great- I have a couple of shots from it!!!!!!!! Only bad thing I fell off the truck and sprained my ankle and bruised my ribs, and spine!!!! Paul brought some of his kids from school they loved it!!! And I got to ride with the Drag race high producer on his golf cart!!!! ROBIN :p

They were scheduled to tape 10 episodes, 5 on Friday and 5 on Sat- but Friday got rained out and they only taped 2 so we taped 8 episodes on Sat- and we had rain outs like every hour........ they staff was extremely nice like I said even giving me a ride after I crashed my foot!! It was a really cool experience- I've been to both and Paul has raced both Pinks and PassTime and we liked PassTime a lot better- they people were just nicer- production crew and all- track was prepped great and they cleaned up any spills and worked hard- at PINKS they did not prep well or clean up spills properly- just my preference- to me Passtime is to show your car off- Pinks they just want you to blow it up.............. ROBIN :p

No, they taped more shows on saturday. Rain showers on friday postponed those tapings till saturday. We sat in staging with the car from 11:00 am til 11:30 pm when we finally made a pass. They filmed at least 8 episodes that day, and there were over 100 cars both days that made up the 10 episodes.
