dmiller240 Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I saw the program Rides on the learning channel last night. Next week they are putting a sbc 350 in a Lexus. And thought bfd compared to what people are doing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWKDTSN Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Is it an SBC, or is it a Lexus motor? The shot of the motor is so fast it's hard to tell. All they say is that it is 350hp. Looks like a good show, though, looking forward to that episode. I've seen all the others so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsommer Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I saw that too and thought the secret is out Hybrids either Z or any other form or fashion are catching on. Now it may be time to start hording 240Z parts My wife almost fell out of the bed when they showed the Viper bike 0-60 in 2.5 seconds top speed of 300MPH. Don't open your mouth you'll blow your arse hole out!!! d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I've been watcing every episode so far, I like to see the machinery they use rather than the actual cars being made. There's another show called American Hot Rod on Discovery channel I think. Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aaron Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I have watched some of the Rides episodes, and have not been very impressed. They don't show enough detail for my taste. I do like American Chopper. (Mostly for the fighting, but also because of the detail they give) American Hotrod is filmed at Boyd Coddington's shop and starts this friday I think.

denny411 Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 They have a new "Southern Chopper" show on Discovery channel. They show alot of detail, but way too much theatrics from the cast. Maybe they`ll settle in and act more natural after a few episodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
