that was a great watch.

I purchased Hot Rod last year on the App Store (a year) and it lasted two issues, i've had this problem three times with Apple. I'm done. they refunded my money the first two times but the Hot Rod purchase i accidently deleted the confirming email....

I'd rather smell the ink anyways. I get like 7 car subscriptions, but not hot rod. Well, this looks like a purchasable Copy....

Cool video, as much as I love the new Z28, Big Red is still a beast! Big Red just sounds angry coming down the straightaway!

Z28, Big Red looked to be pushing like a dump truck.

The article says the Z28 dominated lap times from BR and the new Boss. I can't remember by how much but it was pretty substantial. In the straights though, BR had almost 10 mph on the other two. 850 HP tends to do that.

I'd set fire to the Z28 and the Boss to own Big Red for an hour.
