Two nearly identical turbocharged Mustangs, two well-known names from the online street racing scene, and a Houston backstreet that had hosted plenty of grudge matches before this one. Chris Hamilton’s BoostedGT went up against a car nicknamed Black Jesus in a race that came down to a margin thin enough to guarantee a rematch.
Tim Wellborn built one of the deepest private Mopar collections in the country, including a genuine NASCAR Daytona raced by K&K Insurance and a limelight-green Hemi four-speed he refuses to restore. When Rocket Restorations’ Tom mentioned he was a fan of the channel, Tim didn’t just say thanks — he flew him down for a personal tour and a drive. Watch to see what fifty years of collecting looks like from behind the wheel.
Chevrolet’s factory SS 427 package turned a handful of full-size Impalas into genuine muscle cars between 1967 and 1969, with roughly 6,350 built across all three years combined (1,778 of those in 1968 alone), rated at either 385 or 425 horsepower. The sleeper pictured here takes that idea further, pairing period-correct Impala sheet metal with a fuel-injected 496-cubic-inch big-block and a modern 4L80E automatic overdrive transmission. The result looks like a family car and drives like anything but, continuing a sleeper reputation the factory only hinted at fifty years ago.
A stranger’s dashcam happened to be rolling at exactly the wrong moment for this 1969 Dodge Dart GT, catching a violent rear-end failure loud enough that viewers say they had to rip their headphones off. The comments dug up two competing, detailed theories for what actually broke — and both are worth knowing before modifying your own muscle car’s rear end. Watch to see it happen.
A stroked 417-cubic-inch small block Nova got jumped off the line by a turbocharged Eagle Talon and had to pedal the throttle just to save the run — and that’s before a second grudge race between a 2001 Mustang Bullitt and a 1999 Camaro even gets underway. Shot from multiple angles down a quiet stretch of road, this is grudge racing at its most detailed. Watch to see how both races actually finished.
The Hot Rod Super Nationals has been bringing muscle cars and hot rods to the Canfield Fairgrounds since 1987, and after a decade-long detour to Quaker City Motorsports Park, it’s been back home since 2016. With attendance topping 30,000 over a three-day weekend and collectors driving in from as far as California, this is one of the Ohio Valley’s genuine car culture institutions – right down to the Saturday night cruise into Boardman.
A brand-new Dodge Demon — Dodge’s 840-horsepower, factory drag-ready Challenger — gets delivered in Amarillo, Texas, and the crowd around it turns into its own story. Commenters split between outrage at strangers touching a sold car and celebration for the buyer’s family. Watch what happens when one of the rarest muscle cars ever built shows up at a small-town dealership.
Builder Tom Bailey’s 1969 Camaro, ‘Sick Seconds 2.0,’ pairs twin 94mm turbochargers and a stated 4000-horsepower target with power windows, cup holders, and a plan to drive it home from the track. Bailey is chasing 300 mph in the standing mile and a 5.5-second quarter mile, numbers usually reserved for dedicated Pro Mod drag cars, not anything with a working glovebox. Watch how a street-legal Camaro is being built to compete with cars that never see a public road.
Only 678 Buick GSX Stage 1 models left the factory in 1970, and this Saturn Yellow 4-speed is one of them — a 360-horsepower, 510 lb-ft muscle car that Motor Trend clocked at 13.38 seconds in the quarter mile, its fastest test of the entire year. One former owner kept this exact combination for twenty years. See what made Buick’s forgotten muscle car a legitimate contender.
This Redline review puts the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody through its paces, tackling the question every 707-horsepower muscle car eventually has to answer: how do you actually put that much power down on the street without spinning the tires at every stoplight? The fix borrows parts straight from the Demon’s playbook. Watch the full review to see whether the Widebody package actually delivers.
Bob Welling served as a Marine in Vietnam, came home a died-in-the-wool Chevy guy, and still ended up chasing down a piece of 1968 Mopar history decades later. What started as a simple fix for an engine rattle turned into a full supercharged Hemi build — one so powerful that hitting the throttle at highway speed sends the rear end sideways. Read on to find out how a tribute to Dodge’s rarest factory drag cars became Bob’s daily street cruiser.
A 2016 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 and a 2015 Dodge Challenger R/T 5.7L line up for a Los Angeles street race that reignites the manual-versus-automatic fairness debate. Modern Muscle’s host takes on car owner @chefyork_s550 across several runs, including one unscripted moment in a tunnel that’s been quoted in the comments for years. Viewers remain split on which car actually deserves the win. Watch to see how the runs play out.
Some of the most aerodynamically efficient cars ever built look nothing alike, from the bubble-shaped Volkswagen XL1 to the deceptively ordinary Mercedes-Benz EQS. This rundown breaks down what a drag coefficient actually measures and which production vehicles have posted the lowest numbers on record. The results reshuffle a lot of assumptions about which cars are actually cutting through the air the most efficiently.
A rolled-up newspaper drops as the starting signal, and a 1993 Mustang coupe lines up against a 1968 Nova SS — two completely different eras of Detroit performance settling things the old-fashioned way in a parking lot. The CLUNKER channel’s comment section has been arguing about the result for years since it first posted. Watch to see which one actually gets the better launch.
A pair of 88-millimeter turbochargers mounted directly in the grille of a first-generation Camaro is not a subtle build choice, and it is not meant to be. Turbos that size are reserved for big-block combinations chasing four-digit power, and everything behind them has to be built to match. Read on to find out what a setup like this actually commits a builder to, and why the first-gen body keeps getting chosen for it.
