Scrapheap Challenge - USA
« on: March 13, 2005, 19:27:02 »
Scrapheap Challenge USA - On channel 4 now, looks like its their version of scrappy races though, they're traveling across the US and doing challenges.

Today they're doing a mountain rally.


I'm sure I just saw a 101 on it though, it was one of the presenter to camera segments they do just after the break, the presenter rolled up in a bright yellow thing that looked (to my untrained eye) like a tripped up 101, said his bit then drove off.

Anyone else saw it?

I must admit, I too laughed at the girl#s team when they planned to put that ramp and rails on their big pink cadillac, but man did it work.
