Muscle Car Shootout

[BUTCH1]

Interesting test of these '60's and early '70's cars, all get put through various tests, not exactly fair as the Hemi Challenger had a clutch slipping issue.

Great vid !!! Modern technology being what it is, I'd pass on any modern musclecar and go with any of these beasts just for the nostalgia. My all time favorite muscle car is the AC Cobra 427 SC, preferably the Super Snake with its twin superchargers.

Provided you can part with the $1.5 mil to buy one of these rare beasts!. The older cars had the style and personality but are no where near as safe as today's muscle-cars are, tire and brake technology lagged horrifically in comparison to engine development in that era.

Turning? Stopping? Those were about 10th fiddle.

As long as it did big smoky burnouts and went like stink in a straight line they were good to go.

My first ride was a 69 Pontiac Grand Prix. 400 BB/ 400 Trans... It was prototypical to my notes above, but man was it fun in high school when fast and furious came out and everybody thought their Civic with a fart can was fast.

Just basing my reply on the topic alone I would say the one with the most armor would win.
