Discovery Channel Greenlights Garage Wars

Discovery Channel has greenlit the series Garage Wars, which pits mechanics against one another to find the best fix-it shop in America. The series has been given a 10-episode order by Discovery.

Garage Wars will follow garages in three different cities as they compete in a bracketed competition. Each week, the two teams will be given a box filled with identical parts – such as motors, pieces to a hovercraft or other items. Their challenge is to build a vehicle better than their competitor’s in just four days. At the end of the episode, the machines will be put to the test and judged by a panel of experts.

Four garages in each city will battle it out to become the local champ. The city winners will then face each other in the finale and compete for a large prize.
