Fit, Rustang, and GTI. They could not find 3 cars that were that different if they tried. Sorry don't know the results. My guess is the fit was Riced out way to much, the mustang would not start and the GTI was slower than stock.

I'm sure it will suck, all these new car shows are terrible, mostly the tunner ones. If I were them I'd drob a K24 block with k20 head I/H/E and work on the suspension. But they will likey put crome rims, Nos, a huge wing on it or somthing stupid like that. So lame

although last season the skyline made like 600 hp, and the cobalt made like 40 extra hp with basic mods. it was an entertaining series none the less.

Also I went back and watched the TIVO again - they're planning on a turbo for the stock 1.5 - hence this last week's turbo intercooler install.
That said those Skunk guys sure are stoners - they torn out the interior - only to reinstall most of it for the body shop...then when they were done the shop called and they had to tear it out again. Only on a TV show - in the real world that ain't the way a money making biz works.

Rock Star Supernova sponsored by Honda Fit
Honda sent me a link for on line viewing of the show, contestants, etc. and I watched some amazing performances. Couldn't find anywhere on the site where I could "enter for a chance to win a Honda Fit". Anyone else find it? I don't have much luck with contests. Hope whoever wins is a forum member! Good luck everyone! If you don't already have the link for the contest, let me know.

Corp pimp out
Yes all is cool EXCEPT for the items being added are from some sponsorship deals - I.E. the Sony Xplod bling bling speakers going in all the cars. 
So take it all with a grain of advertising...
