So does anyone know where I find the video of this on the interweb? I found a full episode of two fox body stangs racing but that was it.

Yeah Jeff creech is the guy that tuned my cousin's 04 cammed/N20 GTO, and did an AWESOME job at it and does it fairly cheap, i'm taking my LT1/T56 caprice to him as soon as i get the cam and exhaust work done.

I was standing right next to the wall when they were launching and yeah they were CRAZY!!! The sound of a Hyabusa hitting a rev limiter with a turbo spooling.

i think its real to a extent . like yes the winnner keeps the car but the loser gets what his car was worth from the show . seein the show gets so much funding where does all the money go ??? u kno what im saying , which would explain how the kid got the money to buy it back so soon . just like pimp my ride u think west coast really gonna do all those cars nooo mtv pays them since they dont have to pay actors and props to be built and stuff .

After seeing the show being filmed at MIR I don't think they have a real big budget.
