Finnegan's Blasphemi vs. Freiburger's F-Rod! | Roadkill

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Finnegan and Freiburger go heads-up on the dragstrip in their eight-second project cars. After a road trip in the Blasphemi, the guys add a new supercharger and dyno tune the '55 Hemi-powered Chevy to over 1,000 hp, before seeing how its new tech holds up against Freiburger's old school, all-mechanical, big-block '31 Ford Model A.

    If the f rod was yellow this would have been right out of American grafitti. Edit: oh my god yes I know the American graffiti car was a '32, 5 window which is different from the f-rod but who cares? They all look pretty much the same
