Seen enough about the 3 'Super Cars' already on there and is getting a bit tedious now
Would be a far more interesting programe if they didn't just feature new cars or super cars imo!

when i was at roush techonologies a couple of weeks ago, his was still in their workshop - along with about a dozen others being prepared

what a sight and a transporter arrived to take a couple away - what an awesome noise that thing makes

also saw a couple of mustangs that they were adding superchargers to enough to give any ford fan wood
