Nova got owned. At the beginning of the show it said the Nova had a 555ci big block with approx. 1000hp. I find that hard to believe... anyway that Camaro was bad fast.

Any one catch the LS1 vs LS1 in the first season? It was one of the most badass episodes ever.

That black Camaro didnt have a LT1, it had a SB2.2 headed SBC, that motor could have easily been capable of 800HP+ all motor, plus the gas, they said 394CID but it could have been a lot bigger. SB2.2 headed cars are usally big money motors and usally big inch to get the best out of those heads.

I concur, that would be badass. Of course, someone should build a badass 2-stroke scooter that runs 9's and have that dipshit of a host go, "So...would you say you were outperfromed that round." That guy is such a douche.

I saw that too. It said it had a 555ci motor. The one guy goes, "What is that in there... a 555ci motor?" The owner responded and said, "Nope."

Also, what is with these big money talkers and having a "driver" for their own vehicle? What a bunch of bullshit.

It was also stupid that he thought he was racing a Grand National... then they show up with an 8 second Camaro.

They said the Chevelle was a 10.0 second car. The Chevelle wanted a 16 car head start. They then negotiated and the owner of the Camaro told his driver to lose the race. If the Camaro could makeup 16 car lengths and still pull on him the Chevelle owner would know he was dealing with an ~8 second car.

The Z28 pulled the front off the ground and the driver totally let off. My guess is that it had an adjustable nitrous kit from 200-300. When the Chevelle guy wanted more cars he just gave it more juice.

I wouldn't bring my car to that show unless it ran low 10's or high 9's with an extra half a second of giggle juice or boost to tap into. No way would I risk losing my car in that fashion!
