NOW WITH VIDEO New M3s to be featured on Tommy Kendall's show. (With photos.)
Visited the Performance Driving Center in Spartanburg last week to pick up my new car. These were sitting amongst the fleet.
NEW VIDEO (click to follow link) Apparently, they were filming an episode of Test Drive with Tommy Kendall. Obviously Boris Said was with him, but which Andretti and which Rahal, I'm not sure. Donnie told me (yeah, Donnie Freakin Isley!) but I was geekin' out. ^^^Yup! Rahal of Rahal/Letterman. I cannot wait until 2009! UPDATE: The show airs March 25th 1am on SpeedTV and it was filmed in HD. Last edited by Uberdude328i; 03-11-2008 at 02:30 PM.. |

Any mention of when the show will air? I checked on SPEED's website(which sucks ass) and couldn't find anything. It's all NASCAR, PINKS, and Barrett-Jackson

No it was a few days before I got there.

I have some video of me revving the engine. I joking asked Donnie Isely for the keys and turns to me and says "Yeah, if we still have 'em no problem." I nearly cried... I didn't get to drive it, they parked an M6 in front of me to make sure of that. Once I get around to pulling it off the camera I'll post it in the video section and link it here. |

I am an M3 fan but am finding it difficult to get really excited about this show. I will probably watch as there will be some good track footage of an M3 sliding around. The problem is that every TK show is the same, a huge puff piece for the manufacturer with no criticism or proper evaluation allowed.
Each show starts out with 2 similar cars and TK and some visiting hot shoe giving inane banter and the corporate PR line on the car. They then get in the cars and drive a closed course really fast with the following dialogue TK: Man this Fudge GTZ is really fast. Hot shoe: Sure is. Hot Shoe: the GTZ really takes the corners well. TK: Sure does. Repeat ad nauseum. I would expect to learn nothing new about the car and not to hear a balanced evaluation of it. I gave up watching TK a long time ago but will probably tune in for this just to watch the hot pictures and listen to the sound track of that V8. Sort of like Auto Porn.

I'm going to be watching for Graham Rahal, Boris Said, and the guy with the Andretti DNA (I can never keep them straight). It is totally going to be car-porn. |
