Every car at this drag race has to leave the line the way it left the factory — original engine, original exhaust, no shortcuts. This year’s two-day coverage from Mid Michigan Motorplex mixes in-car and drone footage of a 1970 Hemi ‘Cuda, a 455-powered Pontiac T-37, an AMC Hornet SC 360, and a 454 Corvette, all running bone stock against each other. Watch to see which factory legend actually backs up its brochure numbers.
Brown County Dragway’s eighth-mile is narrow enough and beat up enough that grass grows between the lanes — and once a year, the fastest small-tire no-prep cars in the country race there anyway, often past sunrise. This year’s War in the Woods XIV coverage from 1320video doubles as a tribute to a community figure the crew clearly lost, and includes a Fox-body-versus-Firebird finish fans are still arguing about. Watch to see why this event has no real competitor.
A 1,025-horsepower Dodge Demon 170, a C8 Corvette, a Hellcat, and a current Camaro SS all line up against vintage Detroit muscle in this head-to-head drag video — and the old cars, especially a 1970 Plymouth Duster viewers keep singling out, do not go quietly. Watch to see which era actually backs up its reputation on the strip.
Nineteen million views and counting: a drag racing compilation pits Hellcats, a Tesla, a Porsche, a factory Shelby GT500, and a Corvette ZR1 against a lineup of home-built project cars, including a Chevy Nova rebuilt from the ground up. One viewer joked about losing to “half Optimus Prime.” Watch to see whether money or obsession wins at the strip.
A home-built Chevy Nova was never supposed to beat a factory Dodge Demon and Hellcat in the same session — but this built-versus-bought compilation says otherwise. The same video features a fully tubbed green Cuda running close to a nine-second quarter mile against a Lamborghini, with commenters calling the launch alone enough to make them jump. See which home-built cars are outrunning six-figure factory machines.
A $10,000 Facebook argument between two racers turned into a real grudge match at No Prep Mayhem in Wichita, and it didn’t end the way anyone expected. David Hildebrand’s Camaro took a hit that should have sent him to the hospital instead of just the scrapyard, and what he did in the minutes after says more about him than the crash does. Between a body shop billboard, a debris-dodging cameraman, and a driver who paid up without complaint, this one has more layers than a typical wreck video. See how it all played out.
A supercharged Hellcat Challenger, a numbers-matching Hemi Cuda, a bagged Scat Pack, and a Shelby-badged Mustang all line up on the same night in this Wheels compilation — and the results don’t go the way a spec sheet would predict. Viewers are still debating a 1967 Camaro that ran dead-on to its 11.52 index despite a rough burnout, and a Mustang that never got heat into its tires. Watch to see which pairings go old school’s way, and which don’t.
A plain-looking Chevy Nova lines up against a Dodge Demon, a Hellcat, and a mid-engine C8 Corvette in this drag strip compilation — and somehow keeps showing up in the conversation more than any of the modern cars. Viewers are trading stories about buying muscle cars for $1,000 to $2,000 back in the 1970s, and arguing over whether old sheetmetal or new engineering wins the day. Watch to see why nearly five million people came back for this one.
Over 40 cars showed up for a $150,000 no-prep purse at Freedom of War, in a field so dense with winged, aero-heavy builds that one viewer joked it should be called the Winged Nationals. A fast Falcon got disqualified for jumping the start, a Coyote-swapped entry held its own against big-inch builds, and a rolling Corvette had the whole comment section talking. Watch to see who survives a field this deep.
Jeff Lutz, Daddy Dave, Murder Nova, Kye Kelley, and a stacked field of Street Outlaws names raced for a $100,000 purse at a small-tire event in Kentucky — and only one driver walked away with the cash. 1320video’s coverage also carries a quieter thread running through the comments: fans paying tribute to Kyle, a figure the community is still mourning. Watch to see who takes home the money, and who gets knocked out early.
A Dodge Challenger with over 1,000 horsepower rolls into Doug DeMuro’s driveway, but the real story turns out to be a $10,000 optional sunroof, back seats you have to pay extra to reinstall, and an owner who spends half the review refusing to give his own name. The Demon 170 is the most powerful Challenger Dodge has ever sold — watch to find out why Doug still only gave it a 7 out of 10 for fun.
No power adders, no aftermarket engine swaps, no cheating allowed: just two genuinely stock muscle cars from two different eras, lined up side by side at a drag strip built entirely around one strict rule. A rare COPO-built 427 Chevelle and a compact Plymouth Duster 340 went head to head at this event, and the comment section is already arguing about whether either car was actually as stock as advertised.
A 1967 Pontiac Firebird sat rotting behind a Georgia dragstrip for sixteen years before Mike Finnegan pulled it out and gave it a nickname: the rubber duck. Six years later, this milestone episode finds the car running genuine six-second eighth-mile passes at the very track it used to sit behind. There’s also a quieter moment involving an emotional ride and a woman named Otto’s wife reliving old memories. The full-circle version of this story is better watched than described.
Five muscle cars and dragsters in this roundup share one trait: their engines refused to stay hidden under the hood. One entry, a supercharged coupe nicknamed the “Screwed Coupe,” even had its own model year corrected by sharp-eyed viewers in the comments. Behind the spectacle is a real engineering reason these hood-through supercharger setups exist, tied directly to the gasser and nostalgia-drag scene’s history. Find out why builders cut through sheet metal on purpose, and just how much boost these vintage chassis are being asked to survive.
A gutted Tesla P100D put up serious money against a field of built Mustangs — a Whipple-blown Terminator Cobra, a twin-turbo coyote swap, two nitrous Foxbodies, and an E85 Nissan GT-R — for a $3,200 pot. Then the track prep became its own argument before a single run went down. Watch to see which combination actually took the money.
