I hated American Muscle, wait, that's a strong word reserved for VW's for me.


Prior to SEMA, I had a strong dislike for American Muscle. The cars are big, bulky, noisy, heavy on fuel, fast in a straight line only and can't turn to save their owners lives.


4 Days later at a crazy car show and I was in love.


Being in America, the muscle showing and following at SEMA is huge. Guys like Chip Foose are considered gods and have to walk around with security to make it from one point of the show to the other.


Massive wheels, massive engines, insane paint jobs, hot rods, street rods, low-riders, customs ... SEMA had them all, and I loved them all!


These days I find myself watching Fast and Loud, Counting Cars, Street Outlaws, etc, all with a new appreciation for old school muscle.


We often find ourselves talking other brands and different forms of car cultures down depending on our own preferences.


Truth be told that is what makes car cultures great, it comes in many different forms, each with its own set of unwritten rules. Each with its own set of loyal followers.


Diversity and ever changing styles being the key. We, at RACEWEB are thankful for this because the alternative is too hard to consider.


If we had actually listened to Henry Ford, we'd all be driving black cars today. And I for one know that keeping a black car clean is a nightmare.


Check out our article tomorrow on some of the best builds in the world from the guys over at Liberty Walk.
