And in August, a guy by the name of Sean Boswell Sr dropped a bomb on a side road in Hiroshima after setting up an online challenge with none other than Han Sr. Han took off and was actually beating the explosion, when all of the sudden during a mild right hand turn, the back of his GTR was pushed sideways causing him to (what is known as today) "drift". It took a name of "screechy tires" for a short stint until renamed to "drifting" in the late 1940's.

But if we are comparing an atomic weapon to a camaro.... Camaro wins no problem. Camaro's actually got their interiors inherited from designs of modern bunkers in case someone decides to race an atomic bomb and gets a late jump.

Well since the blast wave travels an avg of 1500mph, I'm siding with the bomb. There ain't a car made that can survive that.

Would the electromagnetic pulse render the modern electronics useless? Might need an old school car that doesn't use computers.

Tsar bomb would be a real challenge. You would need like a 150 shot of nitrous for that one.
