In the icy depths of Kansas City, MotorTrend Channel brings us a thrilling Roadkill episode featuring a peculiar sight: a 2010 Nissan Versa transformed into a boat that, unfortunately, lacks the fundamental ability to float. Despite this setback, the boat boasts a 4-speed automatic transmission and an engine packing a modest 107-122 horsepower, making for an intriguing test in the freezing cold before receiving a much-needed set of new tires. The team's daring decision to engage in a drag race pits this unconventional vessel against a 2021 Nissan Versa, resulting in a surprising victory for the boat and setting the stage for even more excitement.

Following the unexpected triumph on the drag strip, the team decides to up the ante by introducing a nitrous oxide boost to the boat. In a bold move, a borrowed nitrous bottle undergoes a somewhat unorthodox installation on the boat, leading to a heart-pounding race where the boat outshines the Nissan Versa once again, showcasing its newfound power and speed. The risky yet exhilarating experiment with nitrous proves to be a game-changer, adding an extra layer of thrill to an already adrenaline-fueled adventure.

Amidst the freezing temperatures and challenging conditions, the team's determination and ingenuity shine through as they push the limits of this unconventional creation. The successful utilization of nitrous oxide injects a new level of excitement into the mix, highlighting the team's unwavering spirit of adventure and their willingness to take risks in pursuit of automotive thrills. The Roadkill episode in Kansas City serves as a testament to the team's resilience, creativity, and sheer passion for all things automotive, culminating in a series of exhilarating races and daring experiments that keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
