After I saw the cars thatwent through while I was watching, my interest waned. I'll try to watch again tonight and this weekend.

It's amazing that the announcers were pumping up these cars as being super fast and bunch of other hyperbole. They called a mid-90's Pontiac Firebird GTA "stupid fast."

When they were discussing the 460 in the '56 F100 truck, one announcer asked the other (I'm paraphrasing):

"Why do you see so few 460's?"

"Because the 428CJ's and 429's are cheaper to build more HP with."
