Yes we did it with the stang. Are stang isn't as fast as the woolly is but it'* no slouch either. They told us after we won the woolly that it had gone some 9.60'* on the motor and 8.90'* on 1 stage. They couldn't use the second stage cause it was running out of gear. Before they raced us they changed the gears in it and was planning on spraying the **** out of it but, we negotiated that they couldn't use the bottle. I mean c'mon full blown race car w/ 480+ bbc and 2 stages against a stock vortec headed sbc in a stang. They also tried to tell us that the woolly was a 10 sec. car before we started the show. We told them that was B.*. One of my buddies made a comment that was pretty funny he said "we brought a donkey to the f-ing Kentucky Derby" if we have to race this car. I was roflmao.

DO you guys on show get any kind of money to be on the show or does the loser really lose all and go home busted?? I always wondered about that

Everything is out of pocket. You get nothing from the show. And yes you do get to keep the car, some have decieded to sell the car back. On alot of the first year episodes people who were supposed to show up didn't, they were just people out of the crowd.
