Pretty much sounds like every other episode of Road Kill !

And then the crowd goes crazy over it.
Sorry but just don't get it.

I'm sure they can look at some of our Motorsports and question it too.
Honestly, I'm with ya. I support just about any automotive trend even if its not something I personally "get", but to spend SO much money and effort to build a car just for burnouts? Definitely not my thing. Seems you could also build it to run straight line without TOO much hassle, but I guess those guys aren't interested.

When I was working for SHOEI racing service, Road America was by far my favorite track of the season. Something about the small town feel and the rolling grassy hills the track flowed through.

Here's a monster truck, called the T-Maxxx, that has suspension modeled after the Traxxas T-Maxx. Odd!

This Is What Happens When Someone Gets Made Fun of for Having a V6. They Turn Around and Kick Everyone’s Butt

Guys with V6-powered rides typically get poked and made fun of. Whether it be a muscle car or a pickup truck, Americans have an obsession with the good ‘ole V8 engine. Historically the V6 has always been the “wimpier” of the two, at least until the recent surge of turbocharged V6s.

The opposite of wimpy is strong, and that’s still an understatement when describing this 498-ci, 2,500-horsepower V6 motor. Prepared by the folks at AAP in the Kingdom of Qatar, this mean looking (and performing) machine is ferocious, and downright violent on the strip.


This footage by 1320video brings us a compilation of this mighty Corvette in action. It’s fair to say that not all its runs are record-setters. From a few stalls to several losses, it takes the driver of the ‘Vette a bit of time to come to terms with his beast. But once he does, his patience and perseverance pays off.
How much does it pay off? How about a new Outlaw 10.5 world record of 3.85 seconds at 201 mph?
Not bad for a V6 huh?

It's fast as helll, I'll give 'em that. Don't care for the sound though. And let's see some 1/4 mile runs.
