Tonight, we have competitors representing two contrasting styles of transportation. In the first lane, the car is loud and obnoxious. It is belching race gas fumes and slinging bits of burnt rubber everywhere. The exhaust note from this car is deafening. In the opposite lane is a vehicle that requires no traction optimizing burnout. There are no exhaust fumes and – most riveting – it makes virtually no sound. Let’s get a closer look at these sleds. The beautifully loud and menacing automobile is the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. It’s a C7, or seventh generation, if you are curious. Under the Read More

Taking advantage of the wide lanes and long straightaways in Old Mexico, we have a pair of heavy hitters. These cars are modified to increase peak performance and designed to compete in roll racing on the street. Shall we have a closer look? In the right lane is the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Coupe. This hand built German luxury machine is powered by a twin turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine that can make 515hp and 494 lb.-ft. of torque in factory trim. The stock AMG GT S can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5-seconds and turn the quarter-mile in Read More

We are taking it back to the streets – of Mexico – this evening for a factory grudge match. The format will be a 60 mph arm drop by a passenger. Acceleration will commence. Whoever reaches 200 mph first (or closest) wins. In the right lane is a beast of a C7 (2014-2019) Chevrolet Corvette Z06. The Z06 package denotes a supercharged 6.2-liter engine that can churn out 650hp and 650 lb.-ft. of torque (stock). Modified with blower pulley upgrades, exhaust headers, an E50 fuel tune and a methanol injection system, this Corvette is substantially faster than stock. It certainly Read More

These gearheads are eating high-on-the hawg before going out to find some street (roll) racing in Mexico. They find a tricked out Corvette Z06 chomping at the bit to reveal some fresh mods. A Mopar shows up and then a Mustang GT500. Now, it’s on like hotcakes! The ‘Vette is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. In factory trim, it can make 650hp and 650 lb.-ft. of torque. This one has been gently modified with a cat delete kit and an aftermarket cold air intake. It’s also tuned to run 93 octane fuel. Powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI motor, Read More

Things are heating up on the Streets (of Mexico), tonight. That’s what happens when Big Frank shows up with his Go Pro gear. It’s import versus domestic on these streets tonight and it should be a really close race. Boogedy-boogedy. In the right lane is a monster of a C6 Corvette Z06. Is that a turbo down low? Regardless, the Chevy has performance cylinder heads, an aftermarket bump-stick (camshaft), numerous bolt-ons and weight a reduction treatment. It’s a manual transmission. This car sounds like a million dollars. The left lane is home to a BMW M3 sedan with a turbo Read More

It just don’t get more intense than a Ford versus Chevy showdown. Both these competitors are willing to lay it all on the line for the cause of brand loyalty. These guys have worked out the details and they’re ready to get out on the interstate (in Mexico). Make no mistake, the Mustang GT is no daisy. With a 420hp naturally aspirated V8 engine mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, the Mustang GT is pretty slippery – even in stock trim. Add a ProCharger F1A blower and you have a real race car. This pony car is looking to defile Read More

It’s about to be on like Donkey Kong! These street racers have tuned their machines and turned up on the local interstate (in Mexico) for some cutthroat roll racing action. Let’s drop on the festivities – already in progress. First up is a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (upgraded cylinder heads and camshaft) against a 5.0 Ford Mustang with an Odin supercharger. The Mustang gets the jump in the first hit before traffic interferes. In the second hit, the Mustang again jumps out front. The ‘Vette drives around him near the end. Too close for me to call. Race number two is Read More

With Christmas over, it’s time for the kids to play with their toys. These full-size kids have fueled up their playthings and taken to the streets (of Mexico) for a night of red-hot roll racing action. Let’s go! First up, we have a modified (upgraded cylinder heads and camshaft) Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (supercharged) taking on all comers. It all begins with a BMW M4 that has been treated to a catless downpipe and tuned. In multiple hits, the BMW hangs in there momentarily before the ‘Vette shows him the tail lamps. After that, a stock Dodge Challenger Hellcat rolls up Read More
