Your team did good compared to the other team with the silver one. Agree about the presentation though...she failed that bad!

Good luck with the rest of the show!
So much more to that than made the cut, my comments will make much more sense with some back story later

Oddly they released the show online 6/12, a bit odd.

Just awesome. Great first episode, will definietly keep watching. I know the show is just airing now, but are you able to talk a bit about the experience? For example did the show pan out how you though it would? How real was it? I've always wondered how real these type of 'reality' shows actually were.

Hell yes, I will talk plenty about it tonight 12. I just can't get into specifics of how far I went, did I win, things like that. But I can certainly talk about the process which was interesting and I think others would find interesting as well. I watch every kind of car show(and got to build on the show with people I watched on TV!!!) and other reality shows(Ink Master, Face OFF) so it was unique to work on something personally.

I didn't know it existed, hoping it is aired online or through Hulu as I do not have cable. Hope you did well!

She had huge respect for him, he was her idol. That's great, but it hurt the rest of the team and no one else had a voice. After it being a long process and fighting we had 3 people agree on color, but she actually veto'd it and said that she had more faith in Camilos opinion when Troy and Doc had tons of award winning paint experience and Camilo had admitted to me he was color blind. The whole build was like that. It was miserable for me. I made the SS grill badge out of the two RS badges only to watch him ignore it, make his own mis-matching font and cut out giant paper SS badges that he stuck on the side. He came out smelling like roses but was actually grilled by Jean over the front end, not just the mirrors. There was the teal argument and how he put Dodge Charger styling cues and then Lexus IS cues and when I said he couldnt do it, he said those cars werent even on his radar and only paid attention to what Ferrari was doing. Seriously.

My nemesis said that about me, trust me I have much better attacks on him.

I was actually among the most humble, that didn't make the cut, it wasn't found interesting. What made the cut is having people disrespect me scene after scene and then when production asked how I felt-those replies where KEPT in the edit. But the scenes of conflict being cut and my pissed off zingers kept, it came off like I was trash talking for no reason.

100% correct.

I wasn't prepared for them to go as far as dubbing OVER me, which they did to no one else.

I think they want me this bad at first, show an arch of the story later on. If I am the same villain EVERY week it will grow stale.

Here are some deleted bonus scenes, some shed a bit of light into more that went on than made the TV edit.

Both Troy and Camilo look like huge tools. I work with someone that has the same attitude as Camilo and it's very difficult to get anything done.

You have no idea how bad it was with Camilo as they edited it out to keep him as the oh wow guy for now.

He argued color with me. He wanted to paint it teal. I said it was dated, early 90's, when was the last time you saw a concept or high end car in teal. My Ford GT he replied. Yes, I get it, you like teal. 20 minutes later he admitted to me he was color blind. Seriously.

Troy, very talented. And was disrespected by the team lead. He also has a very sarcastic sense of humor. When he said, design the skirts for me, he was already pissed off from dealing with her. She had no clue he wasn't serious which led to him storming off. It didn't show how he and I got each other, I walked off and talked to him that he should start working on his own thing and not take input from her-dont ask for permission, just do it. They just cut to him working like it just happened magically. Whats funny is while a bunch of pro Camilo people are talking smack about me, Troys shop where they build amazing cars, they liked me on the show lol. Everyone has to pick a side I guess. But I like spreading the word about how things really went down in case it never makes the TV edit.

The combo of Darby+Camilo on the first build was just terrible for anyone else involved. I was actually sad for much of that build.

I just finished watching that full episode on YouTube and found it hilarious when Doc Sab talked about his team needing coordination and then running into the glass door.

That was a bit mean. They had the door unmarked in anyway and he has some slight vision issues. He REALLY hurt himself. Production swore they would not use the clip in the show. But did not stop another team from putting it in a commercial. He was fuming. He is not a guy you want on your bad side, not a small dude. Doc was a great guy to work with.

Oh I apologize, did not know he has vision problems. I wonder if they'll eventually pick the best of you to work on an awesome design. I really hope they do.
