you have to give LMC a big thumbs up for pulling those cars off the showroom and taking them out and pretty much running the snot out of them....in my opinion that took some stones...

Yeah Bud --I heard each driver was given a Cyanide Pill to be taken if he blew the engine-----

Your bound to have the enevitable "what if's", but i thought it was a pretty good show. All the cars were not that far apart and im sure that givin another oppurtunity to do it again with a few different mods that the results would be slightly different. I thought the challanger would have done better with a good clutch, but still the cars were close enough that none of them had to hang their heads in shame. I think we should do our own at the reunion

Plus i guessed the chevelle would win and i thought it was fair considering it had an auto and the stang had a 4sp

What great cars!!! I enjoyed watching most of the show. Being a Hemi-Challenger owner, I knew what was going to happen in the slalom(without power steering)and braking. But atleast show me a car without mechanical problems to represent the Mopars!!

All of the other cars were great. Would have loved to have seen the LS6 with a 4-speed and a non-convertible Stage 1. Patrick

I was hoping for a HEMI win, got it but to bad it was the wrong one. I thought the show was well produced as well and anytime I get to see these cars doing their thing it is fine with me no matter who wins. I like most of you am old enough to have seen most of these cars new and at the drags and maybe even a few stoplight encounters.... good old days.
