In a clash of automotive titans brought to you by American Racing and Cabota, Hoonigan sets the stage for an epic showdown between Old Man Gary's sand rail and a roaring Mustang. The sand rail, a vintage beast from '95 resurrected after 17 years, boasts a methanol-fueled turbocharged engine pumping out 400 horsepower and tipping the scales at a mere 900 lbs. On the other end, the 2022 Shelby GT500 Mustang, with its predator 5.2 engine and supercharger, flexes its muscles with a formidable 900-950 horsepower output.

As the race unfolds, the sand rail surprises all by clinching victory in the first round, leaving the Mustang struggling to find traction on the unforgiving surface. Despite the Mustang's valiant efforts, Uncle Gary's sand rail continues to defy expectations, showcasing remarkable agility and speed on the asphalt. In a nail-biting bonus round, Uncle Gary secures another win against the Mustang, further solidifying his dominance on the track.

Through twists and turns, highs and lows, Uncle Gary's unwavering spirit and sportsmanship shine bright, earning him respect and admiration from all corners. The sand rail's underdog story and the Mustang's relentless pursuit of victory create a gripping narrative, reminding us that in the world of racing, anything can happen. Hoonigan delivers yet another thrilling spectacle, where the old meets the new, and true automotive passion takes center stage.
