Dont remeber the show, but it comes on SPIKE TV on weekends with a guy named Stacy, its bout offroading and trucks, maybe its called trucks? either way he built a car called the SlingRay. it was a stingray corvette that was basically same thing as that firebird...only a corvette. It was badass, pushing 500hp or so. Looked like a lot of fun
