I just recently converted the entire 1986 Supercar Showdown from VHS to digital - I know portions of the 1987 Supercar Showdown are online. I would like to get this out to the Musclecar world, but I am a youtube novice. This shows how the cars ran before all the cars were optimized in today's pure stock events
So cool to see these races from back in the day. It sure puts everything into the proper perspective of what these cars ran like when they were all "Stock" lol. Thank you for uploading this!
I agree, I think the times are more representative of what they ran in true street condition. I love all muscle cars, but did you catch the "authentic" ZL-1 powershifting through the gears? That car is probably worth high six-figures today, and I think it is only a show car today!
Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they even want to slow down all the gas pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime. " Bundesabgasbespaßungsverbotsverordnung" in German.()()()()
Nice rare cars racing here, hope there still all around.
Best drag race coverage on youtube thank you!
It is authentic as to how the cars really ran in street trim
Where's this been hiding.... Super cool ... Thanks for bringing back 1986 like I remember it.
