Unleashing The Chevy S-10 On The 1/8 Mile - Trucks! S9, E18

Today we finally unleash Haulin' S-10 on one of our favorite tracks! We'll recap the entire project from start to finish then hit one of the best 1/8 mile drag strips anywhere to shake her down. Then, we'll work on finding the right combination to see just how quick and fast this street and strip rocket will go!

The yellow & hockey stick looks actually pretty good

[@Anarchy-Is-Liberty]

That's about the only thing good on this junker!

[@TundeEszlari]

Nice video.

[@eugenio248]

Is there a previous episode and what is the name or the link? Thank you very much

[@aik88]

Trucks s9 e3

[@josmith213]

Always cracked me up when you see people argue over saving weight and 10lbs here and 5 there and then some dude that weighs 300lbs plus get it his race car lol

[@Anarchy-Is-Liberty]

That's why you lose all the weight off the vehicle you can! Duh!

[@mikemarshall1394]

Needs more converter stall speed

[@mjs28s]

All that work and that is all that it can do?
that thing is set up like a 9 second car but, at least in the videos here, is running the equivalent of a mid 11 second elapsed time.
Not impressed at all.

[@Midnight-Restorations]

Ditto... I know this video is from back in the day, but all that work to basically run as fast as a bolt-on 4th Gen fbody?

[@josmith213]

Shows you how much technology has come, you could easily put a mildly built LS with a turbo and Holley and rip that thing apart, rather than some 50s technology small block and turd supercharger

[@danmyers9372]

@@josmith213- These shows have always been nothing more an infomercial for the sponsors.

[@Anarchy-Is-Liberty]

​@@josmith213 "Shows you how much technology has come" - Oh BS!! We were running an S10 back in the early 90's with nothing more than a BBC and some oval ports in the mid 10's (1/4-mile) FFS!! This truck should have easily been in the 9's (mid to low 6's in the 1/8th) for all the money spent on it!! Junk!! Nothing but a TV commercial program!

[@67cudaksa34]

for that much money they spent. i could have made a 10 second gen 4 camaro

[@Anarchy-Is-Liberty]

For the money spent, that goddamned truck should have been in the low 6's (1/8 mile) at least!!

[@maegenyoungs2591]

It’s a turd though… compared to everything now!

[@Anarchy-Is-Liberty]

It was a turd compared to everything back then, FFS!!

[@phonypony5.0]

That thing is a turd

[@charleslanier1992]

It would be better if it was all wheel drive. And bigger engine.

[@robertsawyer2071]

Transmission is junk listening to the shift

[@danmyers9372]

Shifts like a 1974 Chevy Impala.

[@nojunkwork5735]

1/8 mile is a joke.

[@travarch7892]

Rubbish
