Pushrod's aren't my thing but god.dayum does that car make a glorious noise!

I just love the in-car stuff of the drivers. They look so calm and collected and just know exactly where to put the steering wheel.

Well, Buddyworm, totally okay if pushrods aren't your thing because Mustangs haven't used pushrods since 1995.

That there's a 4.6L 3 valve per cylinder SOHC V8.

I still think Rhys Millen is better and is the only one that can stand a chance against the Japan Driver this winter battle at Irwindale. The Gush is okay....i guess...hell alot better than me but...okay.

No way, Gushi has the greatest, smoothest flow IMO of the rest of the drivers. And on the right track he gets some INSANE angles. I love da GUSH!

Talking

Vipers are weird....they were first created by someone who said...hey! lets put one of the big v10's from our trucks into a small sportscar body! So...thats exactly what they did. And so they ended up with a really fast car...that sounded like a truck

yea...the only thing the ram v-10 and the viper v-10 had in common is that they both had 10 cylinders....

pushrods are just fine, if it aint broken, DONT FIX IT!! gm did some research on makn the new corvette dohc, all the cost it added up to only gained 10% more air/fuel flow. increasn the displacement was a whole lot cheaper and gained a little more power. but anyways, why cant i have a turbo'd toyota BEAM engine with my dinner!

Hey...i have a 510 too. Just got it back from evolution today. It bogs though. But once it gets going... skirt'n 1st and 2nd all the way to 40mph-50mhp is not a problem.(the ground was cold...probably explains why). KA24DE!!! I still think Rhys is better.

Comparing gushi and rhys by saying one is "better" than the other isn't exactly fair. Rhys has been driving longer than Gushi has been alive and for Gushi to be a good competitor with Rhys at his age just means Gushi has more...say it with me now, POTENTIAL.

Rhys has the easiest car to drift, thats why the judges handicap his angles. I bet if any car matches his angle they will give them the win
