Super vs 5.0 Mustang (not sure if SN95 or Fox).

The reaction from the Mustang passengers is as funny as how badly it was beaten.

1/4 mile from the guy with the burnout video and the LS4 collection cold start video.

Best ET was 14.198 (C/D got 14.2) but best MPH was 98.61 which isn't exactly 101...
I need 101. I asked what DA the track was or just the location if he didn't know. Maybe it wasn't sea level....

I wish they put the 3.29 axle from the SS in it. That would have been the last thing it needed.

Super vs MS3!
Shitty video so I don't know who won but I am sure it was close anyway. In the comments he says his best run in the Super was 14.22 @ 97. Hmm. The ETs hold up but the trap speed isn't. I wonder what that is about.
My favorite part is the drag strip announcer basically talks about the Buick the whole time. And the 9 comments to the video are also all Buick-related. Ha.

Wow that is pretty cool. 11 minute road course video on LS4 swapped Fiero.

Oh wow, he put the LS4 in the ugly supercharged 3800 Monte.
And damn. LS turbo hits FWD. Kind of odd.
The result from all that work is...as fast as a C7 Z06. Which sounds cool, unless you have seen Sloppy Mechanics.

The whole thing is odd. Huge tires on the front, stock out back... How do you drive around like that?
