Ranking the greatest muscle cars of all time was always going to start an argument, but slotting a Mercedes-Benz Brabus Bullit 800 into the number three spot sent this comment section into open revolt. Viewers debate what actually counts as a muscle car, what got left off entirely, and whether horsepower numbers alone should decide the list at all. See which cars purists say are missing.
A hail storm should have ended this Dodge Challenger’s story before it started, but Stanley “Dirt Monkey” Genadek saw a blank canvas instead of a write-off. The build adds a 3-inch lift, true off-road tires, full rhinoliner armor, and underglow lighting to turn a modern muscle car into something closer to a wasteland runner. Viewers who hated the concept at first are now among its biggest fans.
This video calls itself home to “quite possibly the rarest Mustang in the world” — a badge-engineered German-market car called the T5, renamed because Ford couldn’t use “Mustang” in Germany over a trademark conflict. The comments section immediately went to work fact-checking the engine specs and the exclusivity claim itself. Dig into the debate to find out what’s actually true about one of Mustang history’s stranger footnotes.
Once a year, El Reno, Oklahoma shuts down a stretch of Route 66 and lets its street racing scene run completely above board — car show, burnout contest, and a straight-up drag lineup that ranges from a sneaky-fast black Vega to a C5 Z06 that surprised everyone with its grip. Longtime viewers are already comparing it to the street racing they grew up with decades ago. Watch to see which car earns bragging rights this time.
At a Good Guys car show in May 2013, a 1968 Chevelle SS clipped a concrete barrier during an autocross run — and more than a decade later, the comments are still debating whether the course itself was the real problem. Between complaints about missing hay bales, no helmets, and an oversized figure-8 layout, this brief fender-bender turned into a lasting argument about event safety. Watch to see how close it actually came to being much worse.
It looks like a rusted-out junkyard reject, but the “Rust Bucket” Camaro driven by Eric Yost is running a different motor than the last time 1320video caught up with it — and it’s about to prove that immediately. A record-setting roll race and a tense battle against a Nissan GT-R are just the start. What’s actually hiding under that beat-up wrap?
A 1970 Dodge Coronet convertible is already a rare find — Dodge dropped the body style after this model year — but this one raises the stakes with a 440 big block and a four-speed manual, a combination few original Coronet buyers chose. Nick’s Garage, known for real, unscripted diagnostic work rather than highlight-reel repairs, tears the engine down piece by piece to see exactly what decades under the hood have done to it. The channel’s slow, methodical approach has earned it viewers as far away as Indonesia. Watch to see what a genuine 440 teardown actually reveals.
EngineLabs and the Horsepower Wars crew settled the endless LS-versus-Coyote debate the only way that counts: two engine builds, a strict $9,999 budget each, and a dyno at the respected Westech Performance Group that doesn’t care about brand loyalty. The results compare more than peak horsepower, weighing efficiency and power delivery across the curve for both platforms. See which engine came out on top — and why the argument still won’t die in the comments.
A Shelby GT500 owner claiming roughly 800 horsepower at the wheels decided to call out every Dodge Hellcat he could find for a street race — a bold move given that stock Hellcats already run low-to-mid 11s from the factory. The result did not go the way the callout promised, and the comment section made sure everyone knew it. Between jokes about losing to sedans and suggestions to call out a Prius next time, this one became less about the race and more about what happens when trash talk meets a stopwatch. Watch to see how it actually played out.
Only 20 examples of the legendary Corvette L88 were ever built for the 1967 model year, and this one is the only survivor finished in its specific factory color. At Barrett-Jackson’s Scottsdale auction, it sold for 3.5 million dollars, a price that reflects genuine racing pedigree as much as raw scarcity. FOX Sports called it simply the ultimate in American collector car. Watch to see the moment the hammer fell.
In 2015, a Wisconsin trapper named John Oens found himself face to face with a fully grown timber wolf, one leg caught in a trap. Instead of a catch pole, he used a scrap of plywood with a hole cut through it, and the wolf barely fought back. Watch how he pulled off a release so clean it is still racking up views nearly a decade later.
A factory-built Dodge Demon, engineered from the ground up to dominate the quarter mile, takes on a Tesla Model S P100D in Ludicrous mode, on a public street instead of a prepped drag strip. The Demon’s supercharged Hemi fights front wheel lift off the line while the Tesla’s instant electric torque needs no warm-up at all. Viewers were quick to point out the street surface never gave the Demon’s drag radials a fair shot. Watch to see which car actually gets to the end first.
Fred already had a reputation for beating cars he had no business beating, including a widely shared win over an EcoBoost Mustang in the half mile. In this video, he brings his Corvette to the Merrill Ice Drags in Wisconsin, where studded tires replace drag radials and horsepower counts for far less than throttle control. The result adds another chapter to an already unlikely winning streak. Watch to see how the Corvette handles a surface with almost no grip at all.
Builder Cook and Evolution Performance took a factory Shelby GT500 and did something counterintuitive — they shrank the engine to 349 cubic inches, sleeved it, and bolted on a single 94mm turbo mounted right in the grille. The result reportedly makes 2,200 horsepower and has run quarter-mile passes as quick as 6.66 seconds at 210 mph, numbers that put it in territory few Mustang-based builds ever reach. This is the story behind The Devil’s Reject. Watch to see the run that earned the name.
A 1968 Dodge Super Bee, one of only 125 built with the 426 Hemi, takes on a 1971 Corvette LS6, one of just 188 built that year, in a genuinely close quarter-mile race decided as much by gearing as by raw power. But the real story lives in the comments, where one viewer’s sprawling account of a mid-1960s neighborhood muscle car arms race, complete with a State Trooper who kept losing his own street races, has become something close to local legend. Watch the run, then read the full story below it.
