Small Block Masters do Battle For $20,000 in Epic Grudge Race

There are a lot of aspects of drag racing that are easy to fall in love with. One of these aspects might just be a little bit of smack-talking with the competition. When things really get heated, sometimes, drivers just need to put their money where their mouth is. This will result in some even more interesting races. As if a rivalry wasn’t enough and the trash talk didn’t build up enough appeal, throwing big-time cash in the mix is a surefire way to make sure all attention is on a specific race. Drivers might even attest to the fact that these races get a lot more intense.

This time, Justin Swanstrom a.k.a. “Lil’ Country” brings us a couple of racers that are really throwing down with one another. This pairing definitely isn’t backing down and features a couple of guys you might just recognize. In one lane, we have Nemesis, the brightly colored new edge Mustang. The McCain Boys really know how to throw some haymakers with this machine.

In the opposite lane, one of the biggest names in garage racing steps to the plate as JR Gray gets Jason X ready to do battle. This is a car that we have seen a lock in for some insane amounts of money. While it was never actually confirmed, rumor has it that one of his races even brought six figures to the table. Imagine throwing down in one race that’s worth more than what a lot of people make in a year.

By following along with the video below, we get to see quite the competition. This one not only shows the race for $20,000 but also what’s going on behind-the-scenes. One of the most appealing things about a competition like this is the intense amount of buildup. When it all comes to a head and someone takes home thousands of dollars, the payoff really comes through!
