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.

PIPES.
