The sweet stench of supercar is in the air as four of the fastest modern vehicles in the world prepare to get it on. The track is heated up and the drivers are talking smack. Let’s take this opportunity to have a look at the cars. At a sticker price of $187k, the 2022 Acura NSX Type S brings some serious technology to the track. This all-wheel drive entry is powered by a twin turbo hybrid 3.5-liter V6 and a trio of electric motors. The combo is good for 600hp making it both beauty and beast. The Porsche 911 Turbo Read More

The guys from 1320 Video ran across this Acura Integra that was killing the competition during RaceWorz 2022. Competing in the Sport Front-Wheel Drive Class, this beast of an Acura seems capable of running eight-second passes all weekend. Making this angry hornet go is a professionally built four-cylinder that’s crammed full of all the best internals available – including Wiseco pistons and MGP connecting rods. The turbo is a 74mm Revolution and the controller is a MoTec 800. The car owner says he is making just under 1,300hp to the front wheels. The transmission is a PPG dogbox and the Read More

So, this clip features a naturally aspirated Ford Mustang that doesn’t exactly have a successful evening of street (roll) racing down in Mexico. The Coyote powered Mustang has been minimally modified with the removal of the exhaust resonator. Let’s join our cameraman as he climbs onboard the Mustang that’s ready to take on the World. The evening begins with a series of contests between the Mustang and a Volkswagen GTI with a big turbo. These are closely contested races that almost always result in a narrow victory for the VW. A real bummer for the Ford. The next opponent for Read More

Ever wonder what it would be like to drag race through an Indiana corn field? Well, wonder no more. This video takes through the Semi-Final round of the 2021 Indy Airstrip Attack (presented by Indiana Corn Marketing Council and First Farmers Bank & Trust). Some of the baddest half-milers in the Midwest have shown up to claim their share of fame and fortune. Let’s drop-in on this crucial round of half-mile drag racing action. Early in the day we have a 2017 Volkswagen Golf R (1100hp) getting ready to tackle a 2011 BMW 328i (800hp). This is a battle of Read More

What we have here is a contest of speed, acceleration and braking that involves two of the most iconic sports cars in modern automobile history. Both these cars have long been mainstays in the performance car enthusiast community. Let’s get these two specimens out on the pavement and see what shakes out when the rubber hits the road. Both these Japanese made masterpieces feature electronic torque vectoring all-wheel drive. While the Acura NSX institutes some very innovative technology, the Nismo GT-R holds fast to the proven layout that earned it the nickname “Godzilla”. The NSX utilizes a twin turbocharged 3.5-liter Read More

This is a tale of two very different cars. The first is a turbocharged, front-wheel drive import with a four-cylinder engine. The second is a domestic production, rear-wheel drive car powered by a massive V8 engine with “just a bit” of nitrous. Settle in and let’s see how this one shakes out. On the import side is a 1992 Acura Integra GSR. It has been thoroughly modified with a built (1.9-liter) engine and a big turbo. Maximum output is dyno certified to be 1,100hp. The transmission is a 4-speed automatic and the GSR weighs in at 2,450-pounds. Very little about Read More

This clip just goes to show that you never know what you will roll up against on the street. You can’t blame a guy (or gal) for wanting to push the limits of their new sports car. How else are you going to know what it will do? However, a spoonful of discretion may save you a truck load of embarrassment if you call out the wrong sled. First, ask what modifications have been performed on your potential victim. Most hot-rodders and gearheads will tell you all about what has been done to their precious ride. Next, just listen. If Read More

Import versus domestic is the new standard grudge match when it comes to virtually every form of racing. The grudge is well represented in this contest between the flagship of the GM lineup and the best that Acura (Honda) has to offer. Both vehicles are stock (or nearly stock). The C7 (2014-2019) Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is a beast of a street car. Equipped with an LT4 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine, the C7 Z06 can make 650hp and 650 lb.-ft. of torque. The LT4 power plant features such innovative performance components as Rotocast A356T6 aluminum cylinder heads and a 1.7-liter Eaton Read More

This well produced video brings us a contest between two very distinctive modern supercars. The backdrop is a half-mile airstrip on a cool but sunny day. Despite being bone stock, the cars are among the most capable on the planet. In the latest version of the Acura NSX, we have a hybrid powertrain. The Audi RS8 V10 Plus features a naturally aspirated (N/A) V10 engine. As different as these two vehicles are, they both look menacing in black. Ride along and we’ll see which of these premium autos is superior in dig and roll racing action. The ever-elusive 2020 Acura Read More
