Next Episode of Faster with Newbern and Cotten is
unknown.
Everyone wants their car to be better, faster, stronger, but can a difference be made on a small budget in a few days? David Newbern and Mike Cotten may not have all the answers, but they're will to give it a run by mixing affordable upgrades with sweat equity. They show the ideology, technology and work it takes to add speed in a matter of days without breaking the bank.
David Newbern and Mike Cotten always have one goal in mind: to go faster. In this episode of FASTER with Newbern and Cotten, the guys try their hand at no-prep drag racing against Lyle Barnett and his turbocharged 1,500-hp "Beer Money" Mustang. After a naturally aspirated attempt in Newbern's stock LS-powered '91 Mustang, the guys supercharge it and double their horsepower against Lyle.
For years, Pigpen, the junkyard rescued 1950 GMC truck from Roadkill, has sat dormant. Now the guys awaken a monster by donating the chassis of their own legendary 1985 S-15 in a body swap for the ages. With the addition of a 630-hp LS7 under the hood, they take on Randy Pobst at Atlanta Motor Speedway and bring new life to an old legend.
The motorcycle-engine-powered Honda Z600 coupe named Bozo is back! The guys convert their VTR100 SuperHawk-powered '72 Honda coupe into a micro sprint-inspired dirt-track ripper. Pro driver Taylor Reimer sets the bar in her 400-hp 1,000-plus-pound Toyota for the guys to compete with, but how close can Bozo get to her time?
There's nothing better than buying a cheap car and heading straight to the racetrack. The guys uncover a cop car racing series around the Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor. With a handful of bolt-on upgrades, they turn their former police auction find into a road race ripper around Willow Springs. This much fun should be illegal.
Why didn't every VW Beetle come with a V-8? The guys take on off-road Baja legend Cameron Steele on a brutal desert off-road course with a Baja Bug. They may be outmatched by Cameron's unlimited racing rig, but the addition of a 350 V-8 to their Bug closes a big gap and truly makes it a car for the gear-headed people.
When life gives you a Lambo ... lift it and throw it on 58-inch tires! The guys take their V-8-powered Pontiac Fiero–based Lamborghini Countach kit car known as the Scamborghini and give it a 6-foot lift. Why would you do that? To take on an insane wheelie-popping mud truck through what's known as a bounty hole, of course.
Looks like something went completely wrong!
