On now, looks good! New models and old versions
Saw that, the '70 Challenger smoked the Boss 302 and the Camaro. They didn't say if what engine it was though.
People DON'T know how to drive, just watch traffic.
Getting worst also with this graduated driver licenses for teenagers-young drivers. Less hands on time behind the wheel as their reflexes-eyesight degrade. Now its not till age 35--45 before you can afford a real fast car--unless you go motorcycle
Those are the "best" drivers now of days, the punks on their racing bikes--least till they hit something, then its no second chance
Now I guess a supercharger on the new 6.1 litler engine would be of help--and 100 octane no lead gas. Just seems much more expensive then before

The higher price of cars is further complicated by the FACT wages have not kept up. Wages have not kept up because investors moved thier business to china so they would not have to pay wages commensurate to the work.
SICK.
Yeah tanner is a really good driver the other two are kind of funny but not so much on the driving aspect lol.
It's not just China. I know everyone wants to make China the bad guy here, but it's been happening for a long time now.
I remember back in the 80's when the largest U.S. companies were opening factories in Mexico. There was the same backlash back then as there is now. And yes, it also contributed to the wage problem and possibly even started it. The reason most people blame China is because they are the Mexico of the internet age.
Back in the early 1970's everybody knew the cars went much quicker with headers, more gear in back and more compression-you pulled the heads and milled them while doing some porting and a valve job
But are the 1970 cars tested with 4.56 gears and other mods and racing fuel--which was sold just about at gas stations in 1972--the old Sunco ads said the gas at the pumps was the same as racing fuel but low vapor pressure for cold starts.

This is more true than anyone could imagine nowadays. In 1970, you could get a Hemi Challenger for around $4,500. this equates to about $26k in today's dollars (we're talking about MSRP here). In 1970, that Challenger was the king of the hill and at the top of the Challenger line up...in other words, it was expensive by 1970 standards. Compare that to the top offering SRT8 Challenger today. A new SRT8 will cost you close to almost $45k. Granted, the new Challenger is a much better car, but you're paying almost double as you would for the same level of upgrade in 1970. The dollar isn't worth as much today as it was in 1970. It's very difficult to justify value in purchasing a car nowadays new or used when comparing to MSRP 30 years ago.
As for Top Gear US? Definitely doesn't have the magic of British Top Gear. However, US Top Gear is still entertaining. I look at it as entertainment value. Obviously, the races aren't set up with equal factors. So take it for what it's worth and no more.
i think all three of those kids on that show are worthless and should be shot.
