'Fast N' Loud' and 'The Devil's Ride' start new seasons Monday

Weekly dose of reality: The Discovery Channel hits the road tonight with the second-season premieres of its two fast-and-loud reality shows, "Fast N' Loud" and "The Devil's Ride." The motto behind these blood, sweat and gears offerings is "restore the roar." Like that's a problem in the noisy universe known as reality television.

First up at 9 tonight is the second season premiere of the aptly named "Fast 'N Loud." This is the domain of car fanatics Richard Rawlings and Aaron Kaufman. Motor mastermind Richard and mechanical prodigy Aaron scour the junkyards of Texas in search of buried automobile treasures. The plan is to unearth forgotten and neglected vintage cars, then restore them at their Gas Monkey Garage in Dallas, Tex.

This season, the "Fast 'N Loud" duo are searching for one of the rarest of all finds, the Ferrari F-40. The goal is to take one from rust bucket to gold mine.

The next stop is the 10 p.m. season opener for "The Devil's Ride," Discovery's look into the world of motorcycle clubs. This season promises to take viewers to the San Diego front lines of a brewing biker war between the Laffing Devils, once the city's fastest-growing motorcycle club, and the Sinister Mob Syndicate (Sin Mob, for short).

When the engines get revving on the second season, the leadership of the Laffing Devils is in a complete uproar. Founding member Danny Boy is butting heads with Sandman, and Billy hte Kid is missing. To make matters worse, Sin Mob's president is an ousted founding member of the Laffing Devils.
You're thinking subtle and refined? I'm thinking you've got the wrong night on the Discovery Channel.
