Three of our local autocrossers are on SETUP - a reality TV show on Speed where Ten drivers set up and race their own Pontiac Soltice GXP for $100,000 and some other cool stuff.
Ron Bauer, Kevin Dietz and Doug Chase spent a month down in CA to do the show. The first episode was pretty good. If you get a chance, check it out. Our team got the first sponsorship from Bridgestone - so that's the car to root for.
It's on Wednesday nights at 8pm and 11 pm.

What....you think the thing was rigged?!
They would not do that on TV!
Some of the local AutoXr's along with the team members are making an event of it at the Bison Creek Pizza joint in Burien. During commercials the guys fill in some behind the scenes stuff. Dieter was telling me about it. I plan to be there next week.. cool stuff... tho the show's editing leave's ALOT to be desired..

We didn't go either. I have to say I like him though - even though he's not the best driver.
Glad to see Ron is still in there. He is sure cool and collected compared to some of those other guys.
Wish I was a Bison Creek when Jeremy told him, learn how to drive autocrosser. Bet there was quite the upset at that
