13' Camaro SS on Mythbusters

Any one else watch this episode where they are comparing 2 identical 13' camaro SS one running gasoline amd the other moonshine, seems interesting though I would never put any thing else than 91 octane

They needed to drag race both cars on asphalt. Racing on dirt and then having two different people drive each car is not very scientific in my opinion.

Still was entertaining to watch, but I feel as if they have strayed slightly from the beginning of the series when they made sure they took in to account all factors that may skew the results, and are now going for more entertainment with the show.

I watched it too and was impressed that they chose the Camaro for the test, but I agree with a previous poster that it was no a scientific test and there were a lot of variables that they sort of by-passed or ignored.

I have the same question.

Is this an older episode or one that just aired? If so, when?

It was a new episode that aired last night. It should be rerun later.

Result is partially based on Kari Byron's ability to run a car down in a high speed chase...



Still fun to watch though
