They put nitrous on a new mustang and went driving it around on the street. They even kinda street raced a T/A. I never woulda thought they would show someone even close to street racing on tv. I was really surprised! The T/A at one point, passed the stang in the left turn lane!!

Yeah I saw it, it was a 93-97 body firebird, and sounded like a v6 with a flowbasturd. I was kinda surpriesed they showed that too though.

Also saw , I'd guess he was an lt1. Motor for motor looked like teh lt1 won. The stang sprayed and did win. That had to be a set up plus they did not go for long 30-80 rolls and a few stop light digs!

it was a clean car but definitely slow. Would do high 12's with a decent tire under it. Needs a converter in that car pronto too.

They should have painted the rear calipers to match fronts .
