In the vast expanse of Texas, Hoonigan brings together two automotive titans for an epic showdown presented by American Racing and Kabota. Michael steps up with his 1300-horsepower 73 Vega, a true street racing beast featuring a Texas Speed LSX engine, twin 80s, and a power glide transmission. On the other side, Kylie from New Mexico unveils her 1500-horsepower GTR, boasting a fully built 3.8 L motor, 58 mm turbos, and a carbon fiber setup that screams speed and precision.

As the race unfolds, it becomes clear that Kylie's GTR is a force to be reckoned with, leaving Michael's Vega in the dust. Despite a valiant effort, the Vega falls short in the first round, prompting a negotiation for a rematch. The stakes are raised as they agree on a full 1320 run, with Kylie graciously giving Michael a two-car head start. The anticipation builds as they line up for the second race, with Kylie's GTR once again showcasing its dominance on the track.

In a display of sportsmanship and camaraderie, the competitors share a light-hearted moment post-race, reflecting the true spirit of automotive passion and competition. Looking ahead, Hoonigan hints at a future face-off between Kylie and another formidable female competitor, Luna, armed with a formidable 2020 GTR J Tech stage 7 build. The Texas showdown serves as a testament to the thrill and excitement of high-octane racing, where horsepower, skill, and determination collide in a symphony of speed and adrenaline.
