They started a series called Drive that had the same kind of race. It was pulled after 3 episodes (7 days.) It was just becoming interesting.
Ugh! I hate when they pull a series so quick. They do not allow a show to build an audience anymore. Seinfeld did horrible in the ratings, but built to what it was at the end. Today Seinfeld would have been cancelled for sure and we would not have gotten to enjoy the show.
The best part of “Drive” was the scenery. In south Florida? Desert mountains. In north Georgia? Desert mountains. Guess they couldn’t afford on-location shots. Too bad the series ended so soon. I Was looking forward to the desert mountain scenery of Iowa.
