Twin 88mm turbochargers stick straight up through holes cut into this Corvette’s hood, feeding a combined 2,400 horsepower alongside a 400-shot of nitrous stacked on top. The car’s only real problem is putting all of that power to the ground, a traction fight that’s kept it from a genuine 200 mph pass so far. Watch to see what happens when a build this extreme runs out of runway before it runs out of power.
This ’69 Camaro won its race at the legendary underground gathering known as Cash Days — then rolled seconds later after running out of road and catching a curb at speed. Described as the first and only rollover ever caught on camera at the event, the footage is a rare, uncomfortable look at what street racing risks once the finish line is behind you. Watch to see exactly how fast triumph turned to disaster.
A GoPro mounted directly on a top alcohol funny car’s wheelie bar catches something spectators rarely see up close: the violent tire shake that comes with putting 2,000-plus horsepower to the pavement in under six seconds. Shot at Grand Bend Motorplex in Ontario with racer Racer X behind the wheel, the angle shows exactly how a launch this powerful can start fighting itself. Watch to see how close the car comes to losing the fight entirely.
A scale Shelby Cobra gets sent sideways across a living room floor in this home video, with a title that suggests the stunt didn’t sit well with whoever else lives there. It’s a small, low-cost slice of RC drift culture built around a car that’s been going sideways — on purpose and otherwise — since the 1960s. Watch to see just how close this Cobra gets to the furniture.
Buried inside the 2001 David Spade comedy Joe Dirt are genuine appearances by a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona replica and a 1967 Plymouth Belvedere GTX convertible — and channel dit0mat0 cut together every scene featuring them. It’s a supercut built for Mopar fans, not comedy fans. Watch every frame these two cars get on screen.
A Mustang running well over 100 miles per hour on I-70 in Kansas loses control and rolls, all caught on dashcam in real time. It’s the kind of footage that spreads because it shows exactly how fast things go wrong at highway speeds most drivers never actually test. Watch what happens when the margin for error runs out.
A stock, paper-tag-fresh 2016 Corvette Z06 lines up against a 2003 SVT Cobra running nothing but bolt-ons, a pulley, and a 93-octane tune — and DirtySS put it on camera to settle the question everyone assumes they already know the answer to. The factory numbers say one thing. The run says something else. Watch to see which one actually holds up.
A 970-horsepower turbo Mustang burying the throttle on the Texas streets was always going to end one of two ways — and this time, it ended with red and blue lights at over 140 miles an hour. Pulled straight from 1320video’s Texas Streets: THE HUNT DVD series, this clip captures one of the more memorable street racing busts on tape, helped along by an officer viewers still talk about. Watch how it plays out.
When a 14-year-old’s joyride in a stolen car turned into a high-speed police chase tearing through a crowded park, cell phone video shows children scrambling to get out of the way. One father didn’t wait for police to catch up — he used his own truck to end the chase himself. HLN’s coverage of the moment has been viewed more than fourteen million times. Watch what he did.
When Consumer Reports crashed a 2009 Chevy Malibu head-on into a 1959 Chevrolet Bel Air, the assumption going in was that the heavier, steel-bodied classic would fare just fine. The eleven-million-view result proved the opposite, and it’s become one of the most cited crash tests in automotive safety history. See exactly what fifty years of engineering changed — and why it matters for anyone who still drives a classic.
A back-road cruise in a friend’s 440-powered Mopar truck takes an unexpected turn when a pothole exposes exactly how much torque the drivetrain was dealing with. What started as a casual ride for a passenger ends with a driveshaft failure caught in real time — and it’s part of why this clip has pulled in over a million views. Watch how quickly things go sideways.
No traction compound, no dedicated dragstrip — just street-driven cars racing on Kansas Speedway’s pit road as part of WYCO Racing’s Operation Octane event. The Daily Driver class strips away the advantages purpose-built race cars usually get, leaving grip entirely up to the driver’s feel for the throttle. Full coverage captures every launch, good and bad, across the entire class. See who actually knows how to manage wheelspin when the pavement offers nothing.
A Ford GT and a Viper, both built to push past 1000 horsepower at the rear wheels, met at a private track day hosted by Texas Speed Syndicate — no factory spec sheet, no scripted comparison, just two very different platforms pushed to the same extreme. One runs a turbocharged V6, the other a boosted V10, and each pays for its power differently in weight and layout. Matching numbers on paper doesn’t guarantee a matching result on track. See how it actually played out.
A Hemi-powered Mopar, a turbocharged Buick, and a small-block Corvette rarely share a starting line — until a F.A.S.T. grudge race forces the issue. Each car represents a completely different approach to making horsepower, and each brings its own die-hard fan base into the argument. Grudge racing settles factory rivalries the only way that actually counts: at the stripe. Watch to see which philosophy wins out.
A 1970 Chevelle running a 383 stroker small-block lines up against a 2009 Mustang GT, old-school displacement and carburetion against modern factory engineering, forty years apart. Neither car has an obvious edge on paper, which is exactly what makes the run worth watching. It’s one small chapter in a debate that’s been running at stoplights for decades. Watch to see which era comes out ahead this time.
