Season 2 of the OUSCI started last nite
 

For those of you with MAVtv....

theres quite a few of us on there....I, for example, got almost a second of national tv coverage, twice. If you blink, i wasn't there lol.

It was a super fun event to be apart of, went by waaaay too fast.

Comments on season 2:

The Good:
-The overall formats nice.
-well ran and well organized.
-very affordable and mucho track time for your buck.
-great cars, eye candy for us, great diversity on makes and models, IMO
-very very competitive.

The Bad (IMO):
-Most people still cant get MAVtv, owned and ran by Lucas Oil which picked up much of the Speed Channel programming when Fox sh!tcanned it.
-No footage of the "boring" road rally, which to me is one of the funnest parts.
-Not enough tv time on the younger crowd (not us older dudes with boring persona and cars (read me lol)), alot of tv time on the people we saw last year, which they've earned imo, but i'd like to see it mixed up a little bit more...
-hard time keeping up with the silence of the series programming, didn't know this new episode was airing until i saw a Detroit Speed sneek peek commercial on instagram, poor marketing for whatever reason.

Well those are my two cents...

Mike

Mike did you happen to see a big blue charger? What about a fat kid on a bike?
I don't have the Mavtv so I'll have to wait till it comes out on vhs...

Fun weekend for sure!
:happy23:

I loved the event and would happily do it again. The truck however, may need a bit more work before I come out and play with the big boys again :D

EDIT: I got a lot of airtime for a kid who has no idea what he's doing...

I needed to put you in the "good" column, thats exactly what i was talking about what they need more of, that was waaay cool.

Dan, i think there were a few shots of your car, but they did a "camera focus" on a grayish charger on the road course...(sorry, is it Don?or Dan)
Did / does your car have a white stripe around the tail?

I have been looking forward to the new series. Unfortunately for us, we moved to OH from TX last month and Uverse does not offer MAVtv. Totally bummed.

I agree Mike, the marketing is close to non-existent unless you attended an event this year or last and just happen to be "in the know". The show is super cool to re-live the events and especially when you see your car, if even for a nano-second.

I wish those of us that are unable to get the show through our tv provider could get it through YouTube, Hulu or one of the other alternative programming options.

Yep blue with a white stripe. It's not mine though, I just try and help keep it together. The owner and I have been pal'n around since 7th grade, one of the other guys I've known since 2nd grade....nice lil wolf pack.

I remember when we did Pahrump in 2011 some magazine coverage of the event, has anyone seen anything since? The events are a kick in the pants and never disappoint, even Portland which was...well Portland, was still well ran and a good time.

I guess the show needs to work to keep the sponsors sponsoring and the events happening. It's just too bad it's on Mav.

Dan

I have been looking forward to seeing the new season and hoping my TA makes it into a few scenes if only in the background. I thought the show was good and put together well and look forward to seeing more episodes!

Matt - you got a lot of airtime, congrats. The Lightning got it's 15 seconds during the autocross. :thumbsup:

Mike - did you participate in the Las Vegas event? I followed a Blue Gen2 Camaro during the road course at that event.

Dat was me. Hoping to do Fontana, but the car is under going heart surgery (heads n cam) and some dress up....
