After first getting tested here in the states last summer, Ebrahim Kanoo’s lean and mean 10.5 Toyota Supra is tearing up the drag strip over in Bahrain, along with the import record books. Take a look at whats turning out to be one of the baddest Supra’s to ever leave the Titan Motorsports garage.

Andy Warren has shown us throughout the 2009 and 2010 season that he and his ’71 Chevrolet Caprice are at the top of the Nostalgia Muscle car class. With hopes of making it a three-peat in 2011, Warren has pulled the car back into the garage for some winter updates. Come inside to checkout what he’s got going on..

This week, another chapter is laid out right in front of us in regards to what we thought was an abandoned Pro Street Camaro in Panama. Well, it wasn’t abandoned, but it was left sitting for a number of years, and now, is being refurbished in hopes of getting it to a drag strip for its virgin run.

Sometimes the old school tricks and modifications are best left to the classic rides, but Fastlane Motorsports have made sure that everyone in sight will take notice of their Pro-Street esque GT500 clone with the addition of a sweet polished 8-71 Blower catching the breeze atop this ‘Stang’s hood.

They may be “rare” by definition, but we’ve seen a lot of them churned out from some big names and small shops abroad. With such a popular car, is making one stand out still a feasible task? Take one good look at Mack Reeves’ new Drag Pack Challenger, and you too just might be convinced that standing out is..

They aren’t just for cold weather fun anymore. Yep, that’s right, you too can turn your winter toy into an asphalt-terrorizing 8-second machine, assuming you’ve got the cajones to hang onto it when she’s roaring to go. With 1000 CC’s and a feather-light ride, the NSA’s best are resetting records at New England’s..

It’s one thing to be a witness to some single digit E/T passes, but it’s a totally different thing to take control of it all from the driver’s seat. Of course, we know that isn’t possible for everyone, so we’ve gotten a hold of the next best thing – taking a look at a 9 second pass from the driver’s perspective..

With the help of one wicked LS9 engine transformation, Lingenfelter’s test mule 2010 Camaro is really starting to show its own out on the 1320. Just a short week ago we brought you video of the car’s 10.23 personal bests, but just now, Lingenfelter has blasted on into the 9′s with their 6 speed, supercharged..

With high 9′s and an NHRA Gatornationals appearance already crossed off on the checklist, Kurt Busch is making a few more changes to his ’70 Dodge Challenger already, to not only improve the reliability, but to bump up the horsepower. Because 1100+ just isn’t enough, right?

When it comes to racing of any form, Mazda’s go to engine has been the “Wankel engine” more commonly known as the rotor design. From the 24 hours of Lemans, IMSA Grand Touring and now, even drag racing, the 2, 3 and 4 rotor design has proved to be more than capable against larger and more common designs of engines. For the Pac Performance Mazda 6, a triple rotor…

For a few years preceding its 2009 debut, this 4th gen was under the knife for quite some time, but it all paid off once it hit the track, becoming an impressive True Street performer. The twin turbo big block gave him an easy 1800+ Horsepower, and a dead nuts reliable street car that he could go grab a bite to eat at the local burger joint with…

Street racing is a serious problem wherever you look. With a rapidly changing environment and a racing surface that comes and goes with the weather, it’s just plain risky. Rather than using conventional tactics that obviously aren’t working well enough, Edmonton and blue line racing has put one big step forth in their effort to curb street racing, with 4 impressive Street/strip performers, giving the competition a run for their money. Who wants to grab a lane with Edmonton’s finest?

Everyone and their cousin has heard of the made famous by Chrysler HEMI name, and rightfully so. In this Belvedere’s case, it’s got 572 C.I. comin’ right at ya, with nostalgic looks, components along with a little bit of modernization where Bob Coomer saw fit, one thing’s for sure, this is turning out to be one hell of a hot rod. A far cry from the condition the car was in when Bob took ownership of it..

While the cars look pretty darn close to stock through and through, Super Stock class cars have countless little secrets, expenses and trick parts hidden beneath the subtle exteriors. Running well into the 9′s on “factory” components takes some finesse, talent, and quite simply a package that works. In the power department, a Ray Barton 426 HEMI is..

For Georgia’s Todd Berry, leaving a car untouched was just not an option. Constantly upgrading, changing, adjusting and simply trying new things has become the norm for Todd and his ’91 Limited Street Mustang, but where did it all start? We too, were surprised to learn that it started as a nitrous-sniffing stock suspension ride, but even more surprised to see this car’s been recently posted up for sale..

Can a T56 6 speed really survive in a low 9 – high 8 second ride ? One fearless man thinks it can, with drag radials and the stock Independent Rear Suspension to boot. With an 80mm Turbo on his 4.6L 2V, David is pushing hard to send his Bullitt right on into the record books as the fastest on IRS with a 6 speed, but it’ll take more than a pretty paint job..

It’s tough to make the cut in Top Sportsman as in most places, running in the 7′s will barely allow you to show up for eliminations. Walker Racing has already shown they’ve got what it takes to win with their ’99 Dodge Avenger, but this year they’re coming out with an all-new 588″ powerplant in hopes of gunning for 6.50′s with a little spray..
