I personally know 2 of the 4 characters - one is a friend, the other is a neighbor. Should be a fun show to watch. :10

9pm CST on Discovery.

'Heartland Thunder' follows four individuals from Kansas who all have one thing in common - their passion for Friday night dirt-track racing. Meet Tim Karrick, Justin Boney, Tom Charles and his son Dan Charles who are all motivated by the thrill of speed and excitement of competition. As well as devoting time between their jobs and families, they spend long hours re-tooling their engines and re-building their cars - all in hopes of finding glory on Friday nights. Gain a unique insight into small-town America, and witness a community fuelled by their love of racing.
 
will have to check that out.

and talk about putting 2 and 2 together....i guess we're both on the SCOA forum and here :pbj
 
I caught the show. I sure hope you're don't live too close to the older racer and his wife. She seems like she would be a real treat as a neighbor. He and his son seem alright. If you know the well financed driver, I'm wondering if he is as arrogant as he is portrayed on the show.

Overall the show was alright. As it progresses I hope they try to convey more of the community lifestyle small town/dirt track racing really represents. They would do well to introduce a new driver or two each week to keep things interesting. I'd start with the guy who won the past two feature event races!
 
Reminder (that's you, Skip) that this is on again tonight on Discovery.

For those who missed episode 1, Here's a link to the show (broken into 3 parts for better downloads).
