Top Gear US Muscle Car Episode
#23
To be technical even in the 60's the Camaro and Mustange were not muscle cars they were pony cars... did the Challenger fall into muscle car class???
Anyhow back to the show, think they had to take the SRT-8 and give Tanner the auto or he would have tore Adam and Rutledge a new tailpipe. In the "drag race" both Challengers were better then both Camaros but Tanner's racing background allowed him to pull out that win and if he was allowed to run on the Fontana track even with out the garden edging (WTF was that anyway???) I'm pretty sure he would have done better then the other two there also.
Agree though should have had the R/T and a manual trans Camaro. Sort of like lets compare the ZR1 to a Focus and Caliber.
