Celebrating the coolest cars ever made, nothing like the sound of that engine when you turn that key.
Muscle car is an American term used to refer to a variety of high-performance automobiles. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines muscle cars as "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." A large V8 engine is fitted in a 2 or 4 door, rear wheel drive, family-style full-size car designed for four or more passengers. Sold at an affordable price, muscle cars are intended for street use and occasional drag racing. They are distinct from two-seat sports cars and expensive 2+2 GTs intended for high-speed touring and road racing.
The beautiful Pacific Northwest has produced a very interesting new Pro Mod racing alliance this season featuring Washington state’s Shane Molinari and British Columbia’s Ryan Hinrichsen. That duo, in conjunction with crew members Tyson Carr (crew chief), Justin Bond, Cole Welch, Mike Micelli, and Tom Gaynor, have focused their attention within NHRA’s 10-race RPM (Real Pro Mod) scene with a slick twin-turbo 1970 Camaro. Powered by a Generation III Pro-Line Racing built 481X engine, the car and the team have shown steady progress and improvement in their first season on the tour. This car features a chassis built at Hinrichsen’s RH Race Cars (Kelowna, British Columbia), but Ryan admits that it is a bit of a rolling testbed while he hones his skills for an even more concentrated and higher-tech approach for his company going forward. Shane has dipped the car well into the 5-second zone with terminal speeds topping 250 mph – both indicators of a bright future to come for the aspiring new team.
