Yea, Charlize Theron and others did a great job producing it. I guess season 1 came out in 2019, season 2 was suppose to be released already but hasn't yet. I haven't watched it all yet, the two Stangs are my favorite. Think one is 65 Mustang fastback and then a later model 2012/2013 maybe. There's a gauntlet of tracks these guys and gals run, it's cool, you'll like it.

One of Matts you tube friends from "lite bright nation" have a car in it. Horse power helps in these races, but it won't win you the race and it varies. The lowest I've seen 300 hp, most a 1200 hp Lambo. They all race against each other and it's all skill. It's that and the tracks which make it so cool. Like I said, I could see one of your cars in this one...or one of you guys anyway.

And yea, season 1 begins with 28 cars, from there it's a process of elimination.....challenging, fun to watch.

I'm not sure what it would take to enter. I mean, one guy borrowed a mostly stock Mustang from a friend to enter and another guy is multi millionaire (guy with the Lambo) who participates. Seems to be a wide margin of who gets in on it lol.

Hey Thinkers!!!

If a 10th Gen F150 doesn't have a carburetor, what does it use instead?
I'm asking because carburetors gunk up over time, especially if ethanol fuel is used and/or it sits in the engine unused for a while.
Just saw a video on youtube with E85 that sat in an engine for several months.
Looked like sugar water and goo!!!

Fuel Injection.
The engine is rated for E10 where I am. May be different where you are.
Don't put E85 in it unless it is rated for it.
E85 gas caps are yellow. If black is the gas cap, only use E10 or problems you will have.


You already did the E85 didn't you?

Right from the owners manual:

They are fuel injected. Basically, the fuel enters via injector, and air via the throttle body.
