PIPES TV - Drag Racing and Garage modifications on ESPN

Ranked #10,543 in Cars, #545,619 overall

PIPES

It's all about the cars.....and the classic rivalries between sport compact devotees and muscle car lovers.  Can a 4 banger beat a V8 on the drag strip?  It's possible on PIPES.  We put them up head to head for a baseline average elapsed time.  Then both teams go to the PIPES garage with a time limit and a parts budget for modifications.  After the garage sessions are finished, we go back tp the track where the baseline ET's are dialed in and we see who picks up the most time and who increased their performance the most.  If you're interested in how to get more hp to the rear wheels, or how to pick up 1 second on your street legal car....PIPES is the show for you.

Power. Ingenuity. Performance. Speed. Efficiency.

    The 97 Ford Mustang really sucks, I prefer a 67 Ford Mustang cause it's more greater while shot by my Nikon S210.

    I really like the show. Some of the garage stuff between the teams members has been great. They all pretty much seem like just regular guys too. The Jersey guys with the Mustang were just plain funny. Make Jake
