Drive Hard: The Maloof Way

Yeah I have seen just about ever car show. But I liked the way this is slightly different in its components. Works for me and the Mrs as we loved Gotham cars gig and the Rust valley restorers. So naturally we wanted to try it out. It's just a bit of fun and not as good as some other shows, but nevertheless entertained us well.

Whilst it might not delve into too much technicality it is still educational in its own way. But I can recommend that you do at least try it out and see what you think of the format as you might dig it.

Plus it helped me to learn more about the US side of drag racing and the elements required to be involved in the area.

Remember when Megan Fox leaned over Bumblebee in Transformers and spewed some nonsense car jargon? That's this entire show. I have no doubt the father is legit but unfortunately it's so over scripted it's incredibly painful to watch for any person that has any mechanic knowledge whatsoever. Watching the one kid eyeball that air filter like he was shopping for lumber at Lowes bout made me spit out my coffee. I usually give these shows a couple episodes but I couldn't even finish the first episode. Watching a bunch of kids pretend to work on cars reminded me of my 3 year old nephew using his play tools on his toy car. It was borderline adorable.

You can't help but to love this family. They're funny, talented and fast. And they definitely know how to drive!! You may be used to the other "car" shows that has a, beep, beep, beep, every other word but not these guys. They keep it clean. Love it!!

It's nice to see Netflix finally adding more car related content that is clean especially. The only trans your seeing here is one in the car! Watch it!

Ignore the other useless comments, their just used to typical trash on other channels that are staged This family seems like genuinely good people that play fair and don't talk trash and that's a real winner any day.

Watched one episode, kids who you don't really see doing anything meaningful to the cars they're working on. Pretty vague mechanical explanations. Over scripted racing scenes (couldn't be bothered finishing the episode to watch some stunt thing) Unless I'm pretty desperate to watch something it'll be my one and only episode. You'd be better of watching other motor shows with a bit more depth. Now I have to keep writing stuff until I get to 600 characters. Nice weather we've been having lately. My tomatoes have been cracking this year but my peppers not so much they're getting eaten by something not sure what.

My eyes get sore with the constant scene changes, I don't get a chance to focus on anything! Jumps around too quick!

As for some of the mechanical talk, come on! Do these guys really know anything about engines?

Measuring a crankshaft, she says "It's 165 grams out!" What? Which part? How do you weigh one part of a crankshaft by measuring it with a caliper? Then runs some sanding strip on the journal!

Checks gunk attached to sump plug, obviously a magnet at the end nd states "The bearings have been damaged" or something like that... The bearing shells on a crank's big end or under the main caps is not ferrous, so will not cling to magnet for a start.

A whole of jargon is not right. Yeah maybe someone who deals with food mixer or hair curler might be fooled, but... I can't see a season 2 happening!
