Swedish Street Race

Swedish Street Race
Tack, or thank you, to antihero69 for this upload.

Nothing like gathering a few friends together on a deserted road in a Swedish forest to do a bit of illegal street racing. We're assuming it wasn't a sanctioned meet given the blurring of the number plates (you never can be too careful; there's no telling who's watching Streetfire these days...).

The cars may be old but they do a mean job of burning rubber and going head-to-head along this not-particularly-wide piece of asphalt. Choose your favorite between a Volvo, a BMW, a Trans Am, a couple of Supras and a couple of VW Bugs. We're not sure what's gone on under the hoods of those Beetles, but they are definitely not stock. Or maybe they just breed them different in Sweden.

American Racing in Poland

American Racing in Poland

WASyl takes us to Poland so that we can appreciate some American muscle!

Who knew the General and his cohorts were so popular in this former Soviet Bloc country? Seems petrolheads the world over like nothing better than gathering together, setting up some cones for a makeshift drag strip and letting the games begin.

But while you might expect there to be a collection of Euro-badged cars in this video, these guys are all about horsepower that comes from the US of A. Ride along as they convoy on the freeway and watch them go head-to-head at the drag as the lights go to green and the action heats up.

To see how we do it in this country, check out Michigan Muscle III
