    Wish I could watch that, dammit! Don't get that channel either . . .

    Looks really good, though, I'd like to hear how it ran also.

        I watched it... Not as exciting as the rerun before it.

          i just finnished watching it. i gotta say, neat idea with the ls1 in the 240, but dam was that some nasty wiring. and that mustang was a total joke, couldnt even make one clean pass.

          one thing ive noticed on that show is they went from having some real nice cars that run well and arent just bottle only motors, have no problems, and good teams to cars that look thrown together, hardly run, are basicly stock motors with tons of bottle, and winey loud mouth people that cant calmly discuss anything. kinda brings the whole show down a bit, but at least they dont cut to comercial right after they launch anymore.

              The car was built in a week, as a community for charity, using donated and junkyard parts. The chassis work on the car is actually really well done. If you go on the Domination's site you can see it was put togethor pretty awesome.

              The engine in the 240 had nitrous, but was only used once, and it bogged since it hadn't been tuned for it. The 240 was really pretty quick, I think they're taking it to the track to see what kind of times it gets.

                  just run slow real slow at first. do shitty shifts. shitty launch
                  then when it counts pull hard.
                  if you watch the show lots you'll see what i mean lol
                  ask for lots of cars becuase "your slow compared to him"
                  then before last race be like.. my motors gonna blow, its losing power

                    my brother just sent me the episode, holy cow at the whining and bitching going on, to funny. That mustang was on fire sooo much, I'm guessing this was from the nitrous? why the hell were they still using it if it kept catching fire???

                    Watching the clips a couple times, it looks like my jay did a good job on the suspension though, looks like the front tires were just coming off the ground when launched.

                      I saw a clip of that mustang running, I kinda got the impression that there was one (maybe two) weak intake valve springs that were floating and allowing it to light; might be wrong, who knows . . .
