Who's going to watch Forza Showdown on Speed at 11:00 PM, 2/28?

I saw the first episode on 2/21 and all I have to say is that this is the first reality show that I actually like. For those that missed the first episode, this show is basically about 6 amateur drivers, all with different racing backgrounds, who are given a car and a race crew to compete in different racing categories such as drag racing, road racing, autocrossing, drifting, and oval racing. They get credits based on how they place in these events and can use the credits to buy aftermarket modifications. The 6 cars were the following:

Corvette C6
Nissan 350Z
Nissan 350Z
Ford Mustang V8
'73 Dodge Challenger
'69 (?) Camaro

My favorite driver is Angela Cope who drives the mustang. She's never drag raced before and have never even been on a drag strip. Therefore, she was nervous and wasn't confident. On her first 1/4 run ever, she runs a 12.9 in her V8 mustang with the manual transmission and wins the event.

It's hard to find any good online pics of her. You just have to watch the show to see what she looks like.
