Street Tuner Challenge finale
Just wanted to give everybody a heads up about tonight's Street Tuner Challenge finale. I know some people already know the outcome, but the rest of us don't know so lets keep it that way until after tonight.

http://www.speedtv.com/programs/384/

It also looks like the new season starts on February 4. I wonder what vehicles they will be using this time?

a mini cooper vs ford focus vs evo rs... honestly a stock rs could beat a turbo'd cooper or focus. A bpu evo could probaly kill the built motor/big turbo mini and focus...i duno i think the interior and exterior part of the show is kinda ricey, we'll see what happens

That was great that they left all the details out, like what the before and after lap times were.

I think that the show was kinda retarded, though it was nice seeing an evo on tv.

I just saw the airing a few minutes ago and was bummed they didn't mention any of the cars lap times.

But I got some air time so it wasn't too bad...

It was such a long time ago... 1:25's sound about right for the S2 EVO, and 1:39 for the stock EVO.
