Oh, snap! It’s about to go down on the streets of Texas (Mexico), tonight. A gaggle of 1000+hp Corvettes have been spotted on the interstate – and they are looking to hunt. These modified Chevy street warriors are searching out imports – as well as Fords and Mopars – in an all-out quest to claim the manufacturer’s crown of roll racing. It’s gonna be a hot-time in the old town tonight. First up, we have a high-revving contest between a pair of ‘Vettes. On the left is a 1050hp Corvette Z06. Mods include a built engine and an F1A-94 ProCharger. Read More
Props to Shawn from AutotopiaLA for sniffing out this incredible Volvo street sleeper. Owned and perfected by retired professional race car driver Eric Curran (West Coast Exotic Cars), this rare Bertone Volvo is equipped to handle almost anything on the street. Let’s get a closer look at this project that is a hand-me-down labor of love for Eric. Of course, we begin under the hood where we discover a stunning supercharged (dry sump) 6.2-liter LT4 V8 engine from a C6 Corvette Z06. Rated at 650hp and 650 lb.-ft. of torque, the LT4 is among the most powerful engines ever used Read More
Headed back out to the street, tonight. That’s where we found this clip from down Mexico way. At first glance, it seems that the owner of a naturally aspirated Dodge Challenger has called out the grocery-getter of big Frank. On a lonely stretch of highway, our man Frank is about to administer a quick lesson in street racing. Get a load of this: The Challenger is a modern-day hot rod. It sounds and looks good, but with no power-adder, this Mopar is playing second fiddle to the Hellcat variant. Tucked under the hood is a 6.4-liter HEMI that can rev Read More
The British are lining up the best that Detroit has to offer for a standing quarter-mile drag race. What we have are three of the baddest steeds ever produced in the U.S. and they are set to let it all hang out for ultimate bragging rights. Here’s a look at the scrap iron. The Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is loaded with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 capable of making 650hp and 650 lb.-ft. of torque (in stock trim). As the flagship of the Camaro lineup, the ZL1 is a serious beast. The car featured in this clip has a 10-speed automatic transmission Read More
Things are heating up in the street (in Mexico) tonight, as we have a McLaren taking on a souped-up Corvette Z06. The worst night of street racing is better than the best night sitting on the couch. This one was made even better with the appearance of the unicorn-esque McLaren 720S. As intimidating as it is beautiful, the 720S seems to make the heart of any performance enthusiast beat faster. Have a closer look. This (nearly) stock McLaren 720S is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive roadster. With a twin turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine, the 720S can manufacture 710hp and accelerate from Read More
We have a special treat with this video. It features a pair of Italian supercars going at it on the blacktop. It’s a drag race between a Ferrari 296 GTB and a Ferrari SF90. With more than 1,800hp between them, this should be a wild contest. The ultra-rare Ferrari 296 GTB is rated at 830hp. The 296 GTB utilizes a mid-mounted twin turbo 3.0-liter V6 and a forward mounted electric motor to realize this monumental number. According to Motor Trend Magazine, this variant of the prancing horse brand can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.9-seconds and has a Read More
This short clip delivers a grudge race between a pair of evenly matched opponents. The guys come off the 60 mph jump and remain neck-and-neck throughout the race. When the smoke clears, there can only be one winner. Who are you picking? Ford or Mopar? Both these cars are supercharged. The Dodge Challenger Hellcat is loaded with a blown 6.2-liter HEMI V8 from the factory. Key modifications include blower porting, a camshaft upgrade, an assortment of aftermarket bolt-ons, an ice water intercooler and an E85 tune from Yellow Jacket Tuning. The car also has a set of fat slicks on Read More
In preparation for the Summer No Prep Kings Season, Street Outlaw Daddy Dave is busy working the bugs out of his brand-new sled. You may remember Daddy Dave from his early days in various S10 pickups and more recently, in the Goliath Chevy II Nova. This season has him rolling up to the starting line in a very different brand of machine. It’s what Dave calls an Audi S5. Dave Comstock and his crew commissioned Tynan Race Cars to build the Beast of an Audi that we are watching in this video. Of course, it’s a Pro Mod. Get over Read More
