[Kawithumb]

New show (I think) just started on Speed Channel (8:00).

Did this show start tonight? -- what is it - a show on stunters? I'll look for it....

[Kawithumb]

I think so. New to Speed at least. They played back to back episodes - some guy suposedly filming Jason Britton and crew for a movie.

Don't know too much about stunting so I was easily impressed.

Yes it is a new show, i just watched it the best tv show i have ever watched, their making a movie out of it.
wed at 8pm

I hated it. They're trying to inject drama into a stunt show.
For pete's sake, just put Jason and no limits on the bike
and let them do their thing. Forget the fountain background
or the old packard plant or the has been city in detroit...
it's not about stunting anymore it's a bike soap opera... BOOO !!!!

I'd rather watch NASCAR...

**** no limits and **** "stealth rider" talkin about bringin it back to the roots? I wasn't aware we came from police acceptance and closed down streets with permits required.. Show is straight gahbage.

stunting = drama.

idk why but it just is.

I wasn't expecting that, when I saw the previews and they were saying about how they were all stealthy about the stunting, I thought they were going to stunt on public roads and in front of certain landmarks and then get out of there. Then the first scene I see the cops have everything blocked off. I didn't really think it was stealthy, just a quick stunt show in a couple cool locations.

+1
Thought the exact same thing. How can they call the show 'stealthy' when the cops have the road blocked off to the public!?!

I hope this isn't a replacement for superbikes. I wasn't to impressed with the show and the "director" really bothered me I don't care what you have to say more footage of the bikes pls.

Amen to that... Bring back superbikes !!!

The show looked like the behind the scenes stuff youd' get in a feature film dvd! If they make a movie of all the locations and riding it'll be great IMO. But the show is a bit of yawn.

I gotta' say I miss Two Wheel Tuesdays.

[FZ1Oakville]

Whatever happened to Larry Myers?

[M519S]

i liked it, they wont stunt illegally on national tv even on superbikes jason b did all his stunts on a closed road, u guys actually think that speed tv will put on a show of them doing illegal things and promote it.
And the reason why it's alittle different is because they are making a movie out of this, all these episodes are like mini trailers of the actual movie.

Ahhh motoworld, great program.

Obviously they can't advocate for illegal activities, but there are ways around that such as a disclaimer at the start saying its professionals only on closed roads and who's gonna say differently? Rather than calling it "stealth" and talking about how jason was going back to his roots and back to the streets; by way of "impromptu" or whatever he said - stunt sessions.. Not a bunch of pre-approved, police sanctioned, ******** events.. If you want to have it all above board thats fine, just don't try to play it up like it's something badass. The director and all of them try to play it up like there are huge emergencies and how they may get in trouble, even in scenes they claimed were on open streets such as the one in washington by the court you still saw flashing lights in the background.. Why try to be something you arent - Jason sold out years ago and if he thinks this show will document going back to roots without actual street riding he must still be high from the painkillers from his back surgery.

i just watched the trailer, that 3 minutes of my life i will never get back!!

huge let down for the stunting community!!

[Airspeed]

All I can say is it's better than not having a motorcycle-related show.
