The builders were a good starting point alot of O.G. racer/ shop owners but why pick 2 lame *** people. Plus the dsm vs honda thing was big in like 98. Should of had a honda vs a honda. Maybe give the teams a week for people to learn the cars and get sometime on the dyno. Oh well it gets a 3 out of 10.

That is the haters post on H-T. You have to be a member to get in and i am not one so can anyone let me know what the hate mail is on H-T. thanks.

And why would anyone want to see a 6cylinder go against 1/8mile times agaisnt a 4 banger. i didnt watch the show, it seemed to me they are just trying to strech the Monster Garage dollar a little more!

I glad you speak for the whole East Coast. 1/8 mile is ------- gay and I don't even know where one is. However there are 3 1/4 mile tracks within a 1 hour driving distance of where I live. For the money they spent yeah an 8.1 is slow. So shut the ---- up cause you don't know ehat your talking about.

You got alot of ***** ******. I know Philly isn't east coast I didn't know you were a ------- hillbilly talking about the south. I got a 12 second integra, and a twin turbo civic on nitrous yet to run and I KNOW you don't have anything even close to that. But since this is the internet your going to tell me about your 10 second car. So ---- you and your whole family. ------- noobie piece of ----.
