"Run what you brung" should mean Heads Up every time...

[@austindurham9600]

Got damn right

[@Roakt]

Then more than one round would make less sense

[@Skdjdjdjsjxjxjd]

That’s a valid point. Just don’t let rich find out bc he will cry 😅

[@Texas2Step79]

Yes not unhook your bottle and give me 4 cars lol

[@importlover6585]

Like the father in "born2race" said, its one thing to add on aftermarket parts, its another thing to know how to use them.

[@ramonhurtado7819]

I’d used to dream on having cable tv just to watch speed channel now we here

[@Johnathan__669_Garage]

Dude so 👍

[@chosenchild8416]

I swear by GM but I have a soft spot for Foxbodies. Nice Coupe.

[@djwonderbrad]

Best way to make a Ford go fast is to put a Chevy motor in it

[@chosenchild8416]

@djwonderbrad I don't disagree with that but SOME Ford Engines are good. I damn sure wouldn't use a Windsor Engine but to each is own.

[@gogglez61]

@Chosen Child Just gotta avoid the 302 unless you just want a good running cruiser. You can build a nice 408 stroker out of a 351w that'll be pretty quick though!

[@chosenchild8416]

@@gogglez61 what is it with Windosr Blocks always cracking? Why does that happen?

[@gogglez61]

@Chosen Child Its a balance issue. For some reason 302's are really bad about it once you get above the 500hp mark.

[@CharizardMaster69]

that Mustang was definitely sand bagging, glasses was constantly looking over trying to make it close.

[@jesussavescars807]

Right on the lunch break let’s go💪

[@chriscaliri7977]

Best thing about this episode was the white tank top

[@brandonjusblong]

Oyea makes me wanna move to shit hole Michigan haha

[@stlchucko]

If the Mustang didn’t get loose in the 3rd race, it would have been a really close finish. If they were spraying less, they would have given up less lengths and the engine would have likely survived to the end. This show was always about the the negotiations. The producers had a vested interest to have it come down to the last race. Your car had to be able to at least survive the 5 (or however many) races.

[@brandonjusblong]

Right I’d rather it be about the best car and driver instead of just the best negotiator/longest lasting car ever if the negotiator was a dirty hustler that couldn’t drive a nail in some soft ass wood

[@HandFabbed]

It kinda hard to be known as the best speed shop in town... Scattering Parts Down the Track....

[@fordfairlane662dr]

Awesome racing

[@jerrygoad3093]

You got to admit Amp performance gave and gave and gave and then gave him the car what do you think was going to happen 🤔

[@bjrollick5262]

I don’t really see what your seeing. The beat him by 1 in the first race. Beat him by 1 in the second race after giving him 2 or 3 lengths in the second race. He was going to beat him in the third race after giving 5 lengths if he didn’t get out of the groove. The fourth race with 4 lengths was a gimme if they didn’t blow it up. They did everything they could to make it competitive and if not for getting loose AMP would have swept them. How fair is that? It’s the entire point of negotiations is to make it competitive.

[@joebot9309]

They won the first two races lol sand bagging

[@mjc3502]

I remember hard core motorsports. The owner went to prison, Ron Duke and the shop was shady as shit. Had a fuel pump installed by them and received a massive bill for extra work and dyno time I never authorized. Luckily, I had in writing as I always do when my car goes to a shop what was being done and they only charged me for the installation but i was told not to come back. Lol Their rep was bad. I heard the owner would let people store their Classic cars in his showroom, they operated out of an old car dealer ship and they he kept someone car for failure to pay when he said they could just let it sit in his show room and people could look at it. That is what rumor went around the state. Anyway, they closed and nobody missed them. It's too bad they were shady because everyone wanted a speed shop like that around.

[@chosenchild8416]

What roll did this Gary guy play in that company?

[@mjc3502]

@@chosenchild8416 if your asking me, I only remember the guy that drove the car, the owner Ron Duke and the tunner Dave henniger. I was there 3x. Once to look around, 2, to drop off my car and when I picked it up.

[@chosenchild8416]

@mjc3502 gotcha. I remember hearing stories about them for once being one of the top LS shops in the country. I remember something about a Procharged GTO they had and Firebird. Or maybe it was a Camaro. It's been so long, i was a kid.

[@mjc3502]

@@chosenchild8416 it was a trans am ws6 looking and had the world record at that time. They had potential to be great, but the owner was shady as hell. Went to prison for some illegal action he was performing.

Man, that guy in the tucked in polo shirt is super butthurt lol

In the end. AMP bought the car back from Hardcore.

[@jimmycline4778]

That Mustang would have lost even if that last race was heads-up , he would have blown the motor at have track and lost anyways!

[@roastbeef56]

Thanks, Urkel 🤣

[@prestige_123]

Don't feel to bad, they taking home a broken car

[@theglitch99]

2 things. Don't race a car for pinks unless it's proven to be a badass! If it's not straight up it's not a REAL WIN!

[@SCredneck28]

I agree If it’s not heads up it’s not a real win

[@BiIlDipperIy]

Yea I always felt the lengths were stupid asf. If your car is slow enough you need 10 lengths, maybe don't run it for pinks lmao

[@xxdanthedinoxx1058]

@@BiIlDipperIy how about no don’t race or only race with car same as ur car

[@seanhume6160]

Both of the cars are sweet But go ford

[@martygrajeda3457]

I think if you can’t go heads up you shouldn’t be there.

[@Supreme10-p9h]

I agree with that all the way

[@toddbob55]

Fox body Mustangs will eat everything in its path if it hadnt broke theres no doubt it was the clear winner

[@Mightys_adventure]

I swear if they ever remake this show. They need to pair races better and stop with the giving car lengths bs. Heads-up only.

[@TurboBird64]

Nate was horrible at his job...there was hardly ever a good match

[@michaelwilliams8297]

We need no prep pinks....

[@justinowens9323]

Can’t nobody call bull shit on the mustang for saying his engine was hurt there your proof they wasn’t lying

[@calikushington]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@HemiSlant6828]

Literally.

[@michaelrice8832]

See this is bull the show is not aired anymore right

[@martygrajeda3457]

Dude couldn’t even go heads up

[@jnorth5689]

Should have been mandatory to have some sort of throttle monitor or show the pass data to make it fare.

[@MichaelMcCaulTX]

How the mighty have fallen. What ever happened to AMP performance?

[@Brando_Magnifico]

Born and raised in Detroit. Fenton is not even close to Detroit. Its like an hour away. The show said they were from the motor city. Gary said he was from flint. Fenton is definitely closer to flint.

[@andrewbetts8249]

810 all the way

Dome as they come. Rich. How he get in racing. Won’t c wheels. Lol

[@billclisham8668]

If you are loading up a broken Ford to drive home 3000 miles.........did you really win anything? The scrap value of a rustang isn't that much.

[@thecustommuffler]

the only real pinks show,, right here,,,,heads up on junk, best junk, but junk. I threw away more heads than ever

[@thomas4315]

Mustang screw up why your giving 6 length. You know your losing because he guaranteed to beat you or what would he want to race you? DAH.... and he runed his motor pushing it to catch up. Silly

[@gundorethemighty]

Run what you got . don't ask an don't give nothing . Run it like you trying to blow it . would never race for pinks 1 an it done move on to the next . forget about all that 2nd guessing bs .. if they ask for 10.5 car bring a 10.5 car . if you pull a 8 sec you lose .

[@christausen1663]

U should have a pot from each team put in $1-2k so the loser has something

[@stevenramrodd1226]

Is this why everyone uses a Chevy block/engine cause Ford can't handle the nos?

[@54raceman]

It cost double to build a ford engine over a Chevy engine and yes to a extent small block fords are bad about splitting at higher power levels sometimes they either live for ever or die early

[@blackeye3336]

Not everyone not even close many ford's have nos but I'm that particular form chevy in this aspect does it better and cheaper mostly cheaper tho that's the big reason

[@brandonjusblong]

Mainly bc it’s cheap bc they can get a stock block 351 to make more than most sbc for their budget but yes sbc is way cheaper to build but it’s solid 302 that’s right with run circles around the sbc unless they have to go around two the length of track in the same amount of time this heck yes the sbc will hold up longer can’t you run longer jogging than running fast as you can

[@brandonjusblong]

I’ve got both and love both btw specially LS base motors so I’m speaking from experience and truth not just bs brand loyalty stuff

[@ktmfour1007]

If its not heads up its just a waste of time

[@xxdanthedinoxx1058]

Right I like episode we’re guy in like a nova I believe he only did heads up it’s not real race if u ask for lengths if u ask for lengths then ur car so slow
