The video above comes to us from the National No Prep Racing Association YouTube channel and it features a pair of Chevrolet race cars that are well-known for their time on the television show Street Outlaws. This includes the 1972 Camaro RS driven by Jerry "Monza" Johnson and the 1955 Chevrolet driven by Jamie Otis, resulting in an incredible no prep duel between a couple of wicked classic GM products.The CompetitorsIf you are a fan of Street Outlaws, these cars and their drivers may not need an introduction, but for those of you who don"t follow the show, here is a quick rundown of each.The black 1972 Chevrolet Camaro RS is driven by Jerry "Monza" Johnson. Under the hood is a 572-cubic inch big block, built by Pro Line Racing and fitted with a pair of 98-millimeter Precision turbochargers. This car is capable of making close to 4,000 horsepower, but the "street tune" has the boosted mill making around 2,000 horsepower.The details on the Killer Cab are a bit slimmer, but we know that this slick 1955 Chevrolet is powered by a big block Chevy V8 fitted with a gigantic 118-millimeter Precision turbocharger. We don"t know any power numbers either, but it packs enough power to hang with the biggest names in the world of no prep racing.The BattleIn the video above, we get to watch as each of these "street cars" do big, pro stock-style burnouts and back up to the starting line. The two Chevys ease into the beams and when the green lights drop, both cars blast away from the line.The race is even for a short time, but by the 60-foot mark, the Camaro has pulled into a clear lead and it just keeps on pulling away, getting to the 8th-mile marker well ahead of the 1955 taxi cab.Crank up your speakers and enjoy!Join the LS1tech forums today!Tags: 2nd Gen Camaro, Drag Racing, Killer Cab, Street Outlaws, Video
