Wow, this is depressing, I also live in this town. A lot of the residents have deep southern drawls and come off as retards. Not everyone in this town is like that, as there are several productive members of society.. such as myself. However, after I finish my BA, I am so out of here.
Anderson is still going down hill belive me i live there and this is fun to go see although alot has changed and it is kind of a ghost town and once u come here to live ur pretty much stuck because u cant find a job to move out and there are alot of people that have moved and are still moving our goverment is corrupt around here and alot of people actually moved and this is about the only release that people have around here and its the only thing they cant take away from us is our cars and trak
Actually, they are skilled amateur drivers. Not that an illiterate moron like you would understand that. I wonder if life in the ghetto is better? Idiot.
Ya, esp. when Billy Riddle wins and starts shouting "I'm number 1, I'm the best1". Hicks don't get HBO so they don't even know the worlds laughing at them...
I was born and raised there, moved away about ten years ago and recently went there for a family thing, and it's more a hick-town than ever. The factories closed down more than twenty years ago and the city has never recovered even really tried to develop any other type industry to support its economy.
Great seeing people still stoked on doing what they love, even given the economic climate these days. However, I am really not sure who "they" are that will take their fun away. Maybe "The Man" or "The Banks" or "The Government". I hate anti-establishment (A-E) comments when the people that make them have no idea why they feel that way. A-E stuff has it's place but often gets marginalized by folks that sound like yokels. Thats my piece, peace out.
Thumbs up for the accuracy of that statement. I don't think any of the people on this show are from Anderson. They look more like residents of Frankton or Elwood to me. Wow.. this show reeeally makes our city look awful. Jesus.....
i dont live in anderson, but im at the track every saturday night... for those of you who have never witnessed small town racing, you dont know what your missin...thats what indiana is truly about...just havin fun..no matter what it is
Hey there everybody this is Sammy Hawkins from the show Dirty Driving thundercars of indiana.I admit the movie only shows a part of anderson but the nestle plant everyone keeps talking about wasnt arround during the filming which started in 2004-2005 and the new casino.all we really have is stores and restraunts and we cant all flip burgers and say welcome to walmart would you like a cart.If the people of anderson wont tell the facts then i will.i wont sugar coat it so you can all kiss my ass!!!
come on they focused on for sale signs the whole movie, havent you read the posts on here? they totally made the place look like a soon to be ghost town, when in reality the place has actually improved economically since the filming? did you even watch the movie? so leading it was kind of embarassing.
And in what way has it improved? Anderson's population is still shrinking. Towns with recovering economies don't continue to lose residents. HBO didn't "totally make Anderson look like blah blah", they're just portraying the cold harsh reality. If that happens to be negative then that's Anderson's problem, not that of HBO or any other TV station.
I am from Noblesville Indiana which is just 20 minutes west of Anderson and have family that have lived there their whole lives. This movie is absolutely hysterical but shows a poor interpretation of the area in general. It makes the whole place look like its full of poverty ridden people. Indiana is not all like this but definitely has its fair share. To all watching just know there is still class here in Indiana.
not from what iv seen lol ever time i go to Indiana i see ppl just like that toothless hillybilly rednecks maybe i need to get out of the lil towns there like shirley and new kastle lol
no they sure didnt LOL im have to go to Anderson Indiana in december and after i seen this doc. i was more than excited LOL im from South Carolina and iv never seen this kinda redneck shit
Definitely worth a watch. Very funny. Very rough bunch of people, but I would love to go see some of that racing!! Also, that was a chicken s#$t move in the end. I'm betting there was an ass whoopin sometime after.
Good show but I have never sen so many ignorant people who use so much profanity, were so ugly and so angry. They look inbred. I feel sorry for the poor kids with parents like the ones I saw on this show.
I'm from Anderson. Though the likes of Delco is long gone, there are still jobs and thriving businesses in the town that the producers have failed to mention. Nestle has built a very large factory in Anderson, the horse track has expanded into a large casino and many other small manufacturers have moved into the town. Big union/auto jobs are a thing of the past in all towns. :o( Very sad to see the economy the way that it is now.
God DAMMIT, Billy Riddle!

I happen to see this show on HBO a couple weeks ago, and it was awsome !!
I live near the Greenville/Pickens Speedway in South Carolina and we have races (and people) just like the ones in the show.
I'd love to get a copy of the DVD. Does anyone know where I could get it fairly cheap...???
