Default MOTOR FX on MTV

Some of you may know that MOTOR FX did a show for MTV last August. And i finally got an email from the Producer of the show! Check it out and tell me what y'all think!

A new MTV car show I helped develop and directed the pilot for called Trick It Out
debuts Monday night at mid-night. It's a tuner garage battle between 8 Southern
Ca. "Pimp My Ride" style body shops. Garages are given old beat up rides
and have two weeks and $15K to turn them into masterpieces. It's a 6 episode competition
that will run all week. M-TH @ mid-night and the semi-finals/finals will run back
to back on Friday at 11pm and mid-night.

Not the most convienent time slot, but Tivo if u can. It's actually a pretty good
show. If u want a preview go to my website:

www.biggameindustries.com

Hope all is well with everyone -

Zosimo Maximo

Thanx

RJ DeVera was involved with this. He sucks therefore I see no good coming from yet another rip off show.

Watched it last night, and it'sa joke. MTV had to create a new car mod show since West Coast Customs wisely stopped doing Pimp My Ride

I set this for DVR and saw one episode (honda accords or something)... then the other episodes that were DVRd were like Pimp My Ride and other random crap. Seems like they ran one or two episodes and then just gave up?

i saw its an ok show. it was cool to see a shop that we deal with here on SL. i like the idea but they should have more than one judge. that way it a fair judgement. its worth a watch.

hey coi... it's alright man.. you guys did a good job. glad to see you on tv though! you'll get a little bit of recognition at the least.

it truly is a race of time.... i just laughed at the episode after, where it was showstoppers vs. 3S motorsports... time wasn't friendly to 3S..

I liked your car, but you really didnt have a theme. I think your car was better executed, but it was just blah. It didnt look like it was a showcar but rather something someone put together piece by piece. The other car was more creative and thats what won it for them. Because as far as just better looking, your car took the cake. Their car was really f***ed in terms of details and looked shotty. It really looked RICE at best.

The big pimpin car for sure! Although if I could get some rocketlaunchers to launch something at traffic in front of me, that might be sweet.

The work you guys did looked top notch though. You could tell that the install and detail were so much better on your car. I guess the judge was looking for something more outrageous and original, which I guess making a spaceship car isn't something you would see everyday. But for something that was going to be a show car or driveable car, yours would be what I would pick.

In any case, it was cool to see someone that is so involved in our Scion community on tv.
