Question What's up wit American Thunder?

What's with this tool Cory Donaldson? Is he getting paid by Victory and Arlen Ness? Seems like all the riding I see is on Victory's, and once in awhile they show a bike building show with bikes you couldn't possibly ride on the road for any length of time. Why not test ride some new Harleys. Man, I miss Michelle.

American Blunder is what someone on the forum called that show just a few days ago. I thought that was about RIGHT!

Im probably part of a vast minority that wasnt all that impressed by Michelle. The only thing she actually knew or at least it seemed was how to read what was put in front of her. The new one isnt any better, its just a victory / Ness commercial. I wish they would put a real builder on tv and let him have a go at a show like that.

Its seems like an infomercial for Victory and after market parts that pay to be seen.

+2 on the Victory Commerical and I may open a can of worms here(not trying to)but those Victory bikes he has been riding are so butt ugly I don't see what the big hubbub is. Just my opinion.

American Blunder pretty much hits the nail on the head. And Michelle was absolutely fabulous until she opened her mouth. I did my best and made it through two of the new shows before I gave it up. It's more boring than the absurdly dis-functional Teutul's on American Chopper.
