Here’s a new concept in drag racing. This unique contest involves a standing quarter-mile, an intense section of heavy braking, a hairpin turn and a roll race – all in a single pass. Should be interesting. The vehicles participating in today’s matchup are the best-of-the-best from the U.S.A. The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is a mid-engine supercar. Equipped with a naturally aspirated 5.5-liter LT6 V8 engine, the Z06 can produce 670hp and 460 lb.-ft. of torque. At a curb weight of 3,774-pounds, the Corvette can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in a mind-numbing 2.6-seconds and turn the standing quarter-mile Read More

Looking like a cross between a Mad Max Interceptor and Herbie the Love Bug, this modified 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 drew scores of onlookers during the Hotrod Power Tour in Bristol, Tennessee. Wittingly named Horseforce, the Widebody Mustang was created by an automotive graphics design firm known as Tredwear. They can put anything you want on the sidewall of your favorite tire. Tredwear created the insane widebody design of Horseforce then applied the hockey stripes and matching patina. Between the sheet metal and the asphalt is a Lincoln Mark VIII chassis, complete with running gear. While the car appears Read More

Evel Knievel is the inspiration behind this stunning 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. Inside and out – even under the hood – this car offers spectacular custom features, all of which the king of the dare devils would certainly approve. Brought to us by Shawn (AutotopiaLA), this shoebox Chevy is a one-of-a-kind treasure. Let’s join Shawn and Tony from Lakeside Customs as they “kick the tires” on this incredible old coupe. Making this heavy Chevy go is a 712 cubic-inch Merlin engine block with a set of Dart Big Chief cylinder heads. Fuel is delivered via a Kinsler fuel injection setup. Read More

The young guns at Hot Rod Brothers (HRB) Customs offer this example of their exceptional craftsmanship. These Georgia boys are churning out some incredible builds that not only look amazing – they run like a scalded dog. Take a look. Under the hood is a Gen III Coyote motor with a set of Gen II Coyote cylinder heads. Premium engine internals include custom camshafts, a forged rotating assembly and sleeved cylinder walls. That crazy intake manifold is from Frankenstein and features integrated intercoolers. The turbochargers are Garret 68-millimeter. The entire shooting match is put together by Performance Race Engines in Read More

How could you get more “This vs That” than this matchup between a heavyweight SUV and a tiny 1993 Mazda RX-7 Roadster? Similarities begin and end with their all-wheel drive propulsion systems. Nevertheless, they are about to line up and compete in a series of 1,000-foot standing drag races. Prepare for neck-snapping action from sunny California. The RX-7 featured in this video is a decades-long labor of love for Rob Dahm, a man with a penchant for fast cars. Obviously, it has a custom widebody kit. It looks amazing. Underneath is a mostly custom chassis and suspension with components from Read More

What would possess an individual to try and make an autocross vehicle starting with a 1970s era C5 Chevrolet Blazer? If you consider the dual nature of the C5 moniker, as it pertains to this project, the riddle becomes a bit clearer. You see, this build begins with a C5 Corvette chassis. The K5 Blazer body was cut and modified to fit the sports car frame. The fenders were also stretched and widened to accommodate the massive (19X12 on both ends) tire/wheel combination. Speaking of wheels; they are Toploader from Billet Specialties wrapped in 315/30R19 tires. The hood is carbon Read More

If this clip has you wondering whether to look at the car or the girl, don’t feel bad. Laura (aka Chevy Girl) and Olive (the Camaro) are both outstanding specimens in their own right. Although, you might want to consider that the Camaro doesn’t talk and it sure sings a pretty song. This is a 1973 Chevrolet Camaro with a split-bumper (1970.5) front clip. The exterior and interior are basically stock. Even the color is from a 1969 Camaro. It’s called Fathom Green (she thinks). Detroit Digital gauges and Vintage Air climate control round out the interior. Inside and out, Read More

Greetings fellow auto enthusiasts. Meet Fast Lane Jane and her bodacious 1964 Chevrolet Corvette. Jane is so much more than a pretty face. She is a serious driver with a competitive streak as wide as the Mississippi River. Believe me when I tell you, she’s in it to win it – whatever “it” is. Jane’s Corvette has been artfully upgraded with an LS3 V8 engine block bored out to 416 cubic-inches and loaded with a SCAT forged rotating assembly (crankshaft and connecting rods). With all the bells and whistles, this naturally aspirated V8 is making 596hp and 610 lb.-ft. of Read More

Is that diesel smoke or shredded tires that I see? Fact is that it might be both on this monster of a diesel powered F1 race truck by Scott Birdsall. What started out as a $225 beater has morphed into this showstopping diesel powerhouse. Shall we take a closer look? Under the hood of this Pike’s Peak Record holding 1949 Ford F1 is a 6.7-liter Cummins diesel engine built by Freedom Racing Engines. It has upgraded internals and a compound turbo setup that yields 100psi of boost. This combination is good for 1400HP and an astounding 2100 lb.-ft. of torque. Read More

Our boy Shawn (from Autotopia) has done it again. He located this crazy 1965 Chevy Corvette with a widened body (6-inches) sitting on a nearly stock chassis modified to accept a C4 front suspension. In the rear, we have an independent torque-arm design with a Dana 44 Trac Loc differential. The Forgeline wheels are 18-inch (12.5-inch rear, 11.5-inch front) This is a car that is equally suited for the dragstrip or the autocross course. The engine is a Lingenfelter built LS7 7.0-liter all-aluminum dry sump V8 capable of producing 630hp. By the way, it’s naturally aspirated. The 3-inch exhaust system Read More
