Full Throttle On The History Channel

Has anyone watched this show? Two teams are given identical cars and an identical set of parts to increase the horsepower and torque. They have 2 days, 12 hrs each day, to modify the cars and then it's off to the drags. The winner gets both cars.

Both teams dive in withnout really thinking about what they are doing and no plan at all. They are not really teasm but a bunch of individuals bumping into each other.

Tonight it was a pair of mid 80's Buick Grand Nationals. The narator was explaining turbocharging but most of it was wrong or just glossing over the facts.

I had to turn the show off off, and get to work. (I work at night)
