Sidecar racing is a combination of a motorcar racing and motorcycle racing with an element of teamwork that has to be precise.. It is not only one of the most difficult forms of motorcycle racing, it is arguably one of the most dangerous. Crashes are frequent and due to the open cockpit, a road burn would be considered a gift by comparison to the danger they face. First, Jesse James has to take a quick lesson to learn the ropes and the art of drifting so that he can successfully pilot himself and teammate around a track against some of the best drivers in North America. Tomorrow Sunday July 19th at 10pm EST. You can watch this Spike TV Sneak Preview Video.

Got-a-be more interesting than the figure-8 racing deal.
-nicker-
i watched the show.
JJ got 2nd and i think 4th.
this is after minimal driving of the sidecar.
?
either the rest of the racers sandbagged it, JJ is a hell of a driver/racer, or its not all the difficult.
not sure i care what the answer is, but that show is entertaining and occasionally there’s something cool on it.
JJ even kinda said it was dumb when he was driving the firetruck.

LOL
Watched 3 episodes. Getting more and more disappointed. It sounds very fake, special camera effects over dramatic off voice, repetition of compliments with no reason, just for drama when there is none. Acceleation of images to give the illusion of extreme speed. Yesterday it sounded very scripted. Race in 2 laps? Let’s Jesse to start fronrt of the others!?! It looked like the others stayed behind on purpose. It’s going to turn into a OCC series and we are all going to laugh each time JJ fails (often). JJ should be careful not to turn into a has-been chopper queen whatever money he is making with this show.
I have watched his show a couple times and it’s ok but it does not reach the level the show hypes in the ads. On one commercial they say Jesse catches a rattle snake with his bare hands. Sounds dangerous but in reality his side kick, uses a tool designed to catch snakes and holds the snakes head down with another tool. Then instructs Jesse on how to grab the snake safely. Jesse does grab the snake and milk it, but was it as dangerous as the show hyped or dangerous at all? sure he could have been bitten if he did not listen to the snake handler so did it meet the hype? Not really. His world record show, we all know that story. The show is good for entertainment but what does it have to do with the motorcycle industry? Is Jesse milking us like he did that snake? If they don’t step it up and do something really dangerous like jump a Harley Davidson motorcycle 200 feet or more or at least something that looks dangerous his show will run this season and be done. I am already bored with it but still wish him well. Maybe they should change the shows name to “Jesse is an entertaining man” than at least we would not expect any more than he is giving right now.
Nitro bike was good episode, love Jesse though when he’s building shit – shows turning into stuff that those 2 science dudes should b doing
