I've seen it and it's pretty good. In the low altitude, anything goes event, they launched an outhouse complete with parachute. ;) If the chute don't open it don't count. Sweet! Quoting Patrick Wiggins <paw@trilobyte.net>:
Those on the list that like to make things fly or go boom may want to know that the SciFi channel has a new show coming called Master Blasters.
Part of the description on their web site (http://www.scifi.com/masterblasters) reads:
Does your hobby require an FAA "launch window"? Imagination literally takes flight with Master Blasters, the new daredevil stepchild of the reality genre.
A high-octane ride into the wild blue yonder, Master Blasters pits teams of amateur rocket scientists against each other in a race to design, build and launch some very bizarre things into the stratosphere. From rocket-bolstered La-Z-Boys to fuel-injected Mini Coopers, "one small step for man" becomes one giant leap for mad science! A healthy dose of teamwork, competition and creativity -- mixed with jet fuel and a few end-runs around the laws of physics -- make this television's most explosive weekly series.
