Stream every episode of Put Up or Shut Up on MotorTrend Now! https://bit.ly/361Syy3 On this episode of Put Up or Shut Up, Brian Lohnes has wrangled two of the nation’s top modified pulling tractors and set them up in the ultimate drag race! Rather than the tractors competing for distance while pulling the sled, the two 6,000hp beasts will actually race to the finish line in a contest of speed AND strength. The two tractors are the Running Bear of Randy Davis and the Super Bee of Keith Wayson. These two competitors know each other and the track well, but they have never competed like this! #PutUpOrShutUp #MotorTrend #DragRace

2020 BMW M8 Competition on the Track! | Tire Rack’s Hot Lap | MotorTrend

BMW’s M Division used to make cars known for three qualities: rear-drive, high-revving naturally-aspirated motors, and slick manual transmissions. Now, things are a little different, as exemplified by the new M8 Comp. These days, M-Cars have turbos, all-wheel drive and lightning-quick dual-clutch transmissions. To see if the spirit remains, Randy Pobst takes this bruiser out on Willow Springs for a fast lap. #TireRackHotLap #MotorTrend #BMW

Filmed at Willow Springs International Raceway, this is truly a fight between brilliant home engineering and the best technology a legendary car company produces. Can a guy's first car actually hang with more than 50 years of performance evolution from Porsche? Can a good old honkin' American V-8 stick it to the slick, turbocharged Porsche mill? We find out in the best way possible, by running them head-to-head as hard as they will go with great drivers! #Porsche #Mustang #MotorTrend
