"Look, I know we're all entitled to our opinions and maybe I come across like a prick about this, but jesus, lighten up a bit.  It's a show about mopars that guy is developing and improving each time.   I've seen his finished product and it's great"

But it's only 5 percent "about Mopars"  95 percent of worthless: Productivity, trashtalking and going out for food.  Show me the beef.  Start to end.

[r4daytona]

Rooks, tufcat, bunicks and anybody else I forgot. ( Sorry Guys, don't know your real names) I see your point on the "beef" but as Troy said Mark doesn't want it to be a Tech Talk or he'll lose the audience that the networks and he are also hoping to attract.  However, I see your point that he's turning off the mopar guys like yourself and he does want to keep that audience.

Yes, I do have a stake in the show since my car is there, and I also don't think the show is perfect, nor will ever be for everybody but it has improved and people are foolish to think Mark doesn't want to make it the best it can be.  Believe me I am going to spend some time with him discussing everybodys input and make suggestions.

As far as the "plugs", like Quiznos, perhaps they're sponsors, and perhaps thats what is needed now to keep the show going, especially since it's all filmed out of his pocket.  Perhaps if people were more positive and possibly went to the Velocity facebook and wrote something positive, Velocity would notice.  If that happened, perhaps Velocity would offer enough $$$ that Mark might not need as many sponsors.  If thats whats going on.  It's peoples choice. they can go to the Vel. facebook and post something negative, positive or do nothing at all. 

But would it hurt to write something nice? Would it cost any money to write something nice?

I guess I'll warn everybody now, I helped get some sponsors like Coker TIre, Legendary, Classic tube, Retro Radio, Napa and Passion4Mopars.  I fully intend to give a quick thank You for some things that they all helped with.  I don't turn my back on people that helped.

No matter how many people piss and moan. The Mopar people are still gonna watch it just to see the cars.

I agree with Jackie its a great show   with the mute on  

It would appear they do nice work I think we all just want to see more of the cars maybe in a year or so we will.

@r4daytona I mean no offence to you or anyone else and Mark knows how I feel and he even said his wife feels the same way.

Good luck with your build

maybe Mark should watch some of Stacey Davids Gearz TV shows a guy insistent on doing car stuff tv out of his own pocket. Not the best ever but he tries to have balance and little drama

You may have a personal investment for its success and that's cool I respect that

We need details.....don't drop this bomb on us without details!

well, i just watched the new episode. i record it and watch when it is better for me. i actually watched the whole show. wish the camera man would have shown the scratch as it happened. think the hiding of the damage was pretty silly. but lets face it,         1. the cuda is fantastic

                                              2. the daughter is gorgeous

                                              3. the hair cut didnt help marks looks

                                              4. the grand daughter is as cute as a bug

On that point, the 5% of mopars in the show is about 60% more than what's offered elsewhere in TvLand...

a few shows follow this format, (texas car wars and shipping wars) come across as mindless empty shows with no content and focus on trash-talking.

He was married when the 1st season started. A little Facebook stalking . Looks like he still married. He just doesn't advertise that fact. His wife does though.    

Married?

Don't read too much into that statement, our friend Stuart is friends with mark on Facebook and in one of his post he told mark I hated his show. I corrected Stuart (hates a strong word) and said I could only watch it with the mute button on, marks reply to that was that his wife says the same thing.

We try and throw each other under the bus as often as possible

That bus must need and alignment and tires by now!!!

...As far as the "plugs", like Quiznos, perhaps they're sponsors, and perhaps thats what is needed now to keep the show going, especially since it's all filmed out of his pocket.  ...

I don't know what the big deal about this is........... He's going out to get something to eat. What's the difference if he says, "I'm going out to get the guys something to eat" versus "I'm going to Quiznos to get the guys something to eat"? Really, that's a major distraction? If I recall correctly, he was messing with the camera-man? Floored it, didn't he..... I've been in my Chargers plenty of times with a buddy and asked, "Wanna see what she can do?"    His actions are no different than a lot of us already, he's just filming it ( Granted, a lot of us don't do the banter back-n-forth like he does ). Personally, I do, especially when I'm at the base around my Air Force buddies and at car shows with my Moparite buddies........ If we didn't rag on each other, we would think the other didn't love us anymore.......  We all have thick skins and it's appropriate for the individual. I'm sure Mark wouldn't rag on someone he felt wouldn't "welcome" it....

Thanks Tom for the Velocity Channel facebook statement, I would have never guessed there's a facebook for them...........

I can't wait to see the A12 'Bee get going, Mike's Superbird continue and the slant 6 Charger.... and I really dig that 3X black 'Cuda..... Since it has a black billboard, would it be considered a 4X black car?

All the shows have the product advertising , most take a segment and sit down and do a infomercial .

I guess I'll warn everybody now, I helped get some sponsors like Coker TIre, Legendary, Classic tube, Retro Radio, Napa and Passion4Mopars.  I fully intend to give a quick thank You for some things that they all helped with.  I don't turn my back on people that helped.

R4Daytona thanks for the well worded, well spoken response, I honestly, do hope you pass on some of the viewers concerns, truthfully I would like the show to work... At least those product that you metion ed or helped to get, that will no doubt be plugged on the show, at least have some relevance in the Mopar car world, something to do with or about the cars, not some hair cut or salon {I get it, it's his daughter}, or some sandwich joint, or some stupid phone pranks, I know they had to add the fluff/BS for Velocity to pick up the show, but remember it's about pleasing or appealing to a target audience, or the show won't last, I do know if there weren't Mopars on the show, I for sure would never have even watched a second episode, let alone going into a second season... I don't do face book or twitter so there's no chance of any comments good or bad from me on them... At least there are some minuscule snippets of good information to keep the car people/Mopar crowd coming back for more... It is a little better than last year, at least the last episode had some work being/getting done, while Mark was out of the shop.. hopefully it will continue to improve & appeal to the target auience... good luck with you restoration

now there's something nice about the show for the most part....

How could Mark's DNA produce such a stunning beautiful daughter?

Money; its no wonder Josh had to get a real job...

Did you see her on the pumpkin carving show in the first season she was a little chubby and had dark hair.

She must have went to a body shop herself 

[TUFCAT]

She's babalicious now!
