A 1968 Dodge Charger sat forgotten in the back of an old scrapyard, hidden from the road and untouched for who knows how long, until somebody willing to walk past the visible rows finally spotted its unmistakable fastback shape. Convincing the yard’s owner to finally sell took some doing. Now it is headed into a full restoration. See the condition it was really found in before the work began.
A dealer rarely gets sentimental about a car passing through their lot, but the team at Retro Classic Car mounted a GoPro for one last POV drive through this 1979 Camaro Z28 before handing it to its new owner. By their own account, it was one of the best examples of the model they had ever stocked. The sound alone, they say, never gets old. Ride along for the last lap before it changed hands for good.
Barefoot Ronnie Pace brought his Yenko Nova to a Texas street outlaw grudge match, nitrous system primed and ready to settle the pass against a car tuned by Flaccos Tuning. What happens next is the exact moment every nitrous tuner fears: a violent backfire loud enough to make the whole crowd flinch. Driver Mod TV caught it clean on camera. Watch to see whether the Nova, and Ronnie, made it through in one piece.
Plymouth had a genuinely serious sales pitch for the 1969 Road Runner: it had just been named Motor Trend Car of the Year, beating out far pricier competition. Rather than lead with that fact, the company built a commercial around Wile E. Coyote and his eternal chase, letting a cartoon rivalry do the talking for a real performance bargain. It is a strange and charming piece of muscle car advertising history. Watch to see how the joke and the trophy fit together.
A dashcam caught the exact moment a semi truck ran a red light and collided with a passenger car — a crash violent enough to send both drivers to the hospital, though thankfully without severe injuries. It’s a stark reminder of how fast an ordinary intersection can turn dangerous. Watch the moment of impact for yourself.
The Ford Falcon XB GT that became Mad Max’s V8 Interceptor is more than a movie prop — to Australians, it’s a cultural icon on the level of the Millennium Falcon. Big Sonny & Co traces the car’s full story, from its role opposite Mel Gibson to a present-day campaign to bring it home to Melbourne. Watch to learn why one modified Falcon still means so much to an entire country.
A casual freeway cruise turned into something else entirely when a Hennessey-built C7 Corvette Stingray, pushing close to 600 rear-wheel horsepower, decided to show off at triple-digit speeds. What started as friendly bait between two cars ended with red and blue lights in the mirror. Watch to see how the run — and the aftermath — actually played out.
A bolt-on 2017 ZL1 running E85 and meth against a bone-stock Dodge Demon sounds like an easy call on paper — until you remember what the Demon was actually built to do. Stangkilr Productions caught one of the very first street races between these two rivals, and the outcome isn’t nearly as predictable as the spec sheets suggest. Watch to see how a stock car handles a heavily built rival.
American police cars have quietly tracked the entire history of the domestic auto industry — from full-size body-on-frame cruisers to the pursuit-rated sedans and SUVs patrolling today. Car News TV runs through the vehicles that actually chased down speeders across the decades, using only on-screen text and engine sound instead of narration. The result feels less like a documentary and more like sitting trackside. Watch to see which generation of cruiser earns the top spot.
Tom Nelson’s blown methanol engines have a reputation for chaos on the dyno, and this one lives up to it — Nelson Racing Engines calls it a run messy enough to make a neat freak nervous, the kind that makes even seasoned crew members keep their distance. Methanol combustion behaves nothing like pump gas, and this engine makes sure everyone in the room knows it. Watch to see just how far things get out of hand.
Scotty Kilmer has spent fifty years with his hands inside engine bays, and in this video he lays out exactly what separates a classic car worth buying from one that will bleed you dry. It’s not the price tag on the ad that matters most, and it’s not how clean the paint looks in the listing photos. Watch to find out what he actually checks before anyone hands over a dime.
A Dodge Cummins diesel truck running 9.18 seconds at 147.46 miles per hour sounds impossible until you see it happen — and this pass, recorded on a full quarter mile at Pinks All Out in Norwalk, Ohio, leaves a Foxbody Mustang with no answer. It’s a reminder of just how far diesel drag racing has come from its towing-truck roots.
