Well, for those that might have happened to catch this last night, it was slightly interesting. From the description I thought it would show some of the characteristics and life styles of the people involved in this "sport."
Basically, they picked two people, modded their car for them, then sent them to the track for an 1/8th mile race to see who would win. It was pretty gay at times.
One car was a black civic driven by a mother. Pretty good lookin latino girl with a love for racin and moddin. I give props to the civic because of the fact that she upgraded the internals along with her turbo setup. Smart girl, kinda. The other car was a 1990 Eagle Talon AWD. This guy was such a dumb ass. He claimed to have been given a ticket for every possible thing that goes with street racing (didn't surprise me) and talked about all the money involved. The part that just made me laugh was when they got to moddin.
The girl with the civic took her car to a shop with these three guys that had a small machine shop in their shop. They planned everything out, tested everything, and did some very smart precision modifications. They were smart because of the fact that the very first thing they did was pull the SOHC motor and swap in a DOHC motor. The upgraded the internals again and I believe they replaced a few of the parts on the turbo setup. Nice and clean (except for the 800 stickers), it was a nice civic. They had so much trouble getting her to get rid of a Tokico sticker on her hood and putting something else in its place ( ).
The dude with the Talon took his to this shop and his car was worked on by the three stooges. The guy runnin the shop was all like "I hate workin on Mitsubishi's," "Honda for life," blah blah blah. I about died laughing when his first modification idea was to put NOS on it. Typical honda dumb f*ck! They changed his stock intercooler with a front mount and all of their modding was done by the seat of their pants. And they said that's how they worked. They proclaimed their qualityless work on TV! Morons! Anywhoo, they were dumb, they put NOS on the car and called it a quality mod.
Now, the girl had her dumb moment as well when she went and posted EVERY single thing about her car on the internet that night and the Talon team read it and changed their entire plan so that they could build a car that was guaranteed to beat the civic. Their plan: bigger shot!
Anyways, they went to the track and the Talon ran like a 9.92 w/o spraying and the civic ran a similar time on their practice run. When it came down to the race race, the Talon sprayed and got an 8.1 and the Civic got a 9.6. They were both running with slicks.
Either way, it was pretty gay, but funny to watch.

and yeah, i forgot, the Talon broke an axle on the final run. I yet again nearly peed my pants when the guy runnin the shop that did the work on the Talon told the kid driving it "well, that's what happens when you start puttin down some serious power."
