In this thrilling episode from MotorTrend Channel, we witness the jaw-dropping sight of Stan's car with headers boldly protruding above the front fenders, a sight you won't soon forget. Meanwhile, Dustin Trance, a true master in the 850 index class, showcases his skills in the street race small block power category with precision and finesse. Moving on to the iconic Blasphemy 1955 Chevrolet driven by the one and only Mike Finnegan, we see the car undergo significant updates, including a new front end and a slipper clutch, setting the stage for an exhilarating run on the drag strip.

As the engines roar, Brian Hansen's Nova echoes with the promise of power in the Super Street big block category, while Billy Gabart's 76 Duster adds a touch of nostalgia to the mix. The competition heats up with Evan Urwitz's 1979 Malibu chasing the leaders in the Pro Street power Adder category, showcasing the fierce battle for supremacy on the track. Amidst the adrenaline-fueled action, Doug Kler's search for an Aeromotive Pro Series fuel pump adds a touch of drama, highlighting the challenges and obstacles faced by these daring racers.

In a heart-pounding display of speed and skill, Clark Rosen Stangle's powerhouse car dominates the modified Power Adder category, leaving spectators in awe of his prowess on the track. The rivalry between Wayne Baker and Mike Finnegan adds an extra layer of excitement as they race for the coveted trophy, with each driver pushing the limits of their machines to emerge victorious. From Cole Ponet's spirited run in the Gun Lake Casino Lane to Bryant Goldstone's record-breaking performance at a staggering 216 mph, this episode is a testament to the relentless pursuit of speed and glory on the drag strip.
