Yup, I've been watching it since it premiered last week. You didn't miss much, as in the introductary episode they mainly introduced the three teams and each one went over what their goals were in the contest.
I'm finding it pretty interesting so far, although I think the half-hour format tends to hurt the flow of things, as it only allows around 6-7 minutes per team each week, which really isn't enough time to get into as much detail on the build-ups as I'd like.
The only other real complaint I have is that the cars seem pretty mismatched: '05 Cobalt SS, '05 Volkswagon Jetta, and a '03 Nissan Skyline GT-R. There's no real connection between the three, as all are totally different classes of cars altogether. Also, although the show's intro says that the cars are competing in three different areas (interior, exterior, and performance), the show's website seems to indicate that the only actual competion at the end of the series will be in a Time Attack, so I'm not really sure what they're actually designing for.
Anyway, while the show normally airs on Wednesdays, they seem to show repeats all throughout the rest of the week, and I'd recommend checking it out at least once.
By the way, show's official site is: http://www.streettunerchallenge.tv/
