Yesterday we teased that the Discovery Channel tandem of Street Outlaws and Fast ‘N Loud were meeting up for some reason. Well now we know the head Gas Monkey, Richard Rawlings, decided to call out Midwest Street Cars and challenge them to a drag car build off for a special TV event that will be called Mega Race.

Both teams will be building a car from scratch to race heads up against each other in what promises to be one of the most exciting cross-promotional events Monday night has ever seen! As you know, we saw Big Chief’s new GTO just a few days ago, and it appears that is the car that the Midwest Street Car crew built for this challenge from Rawlings. If you pause the video at just the right moment, you can see the Gas Monkey Garage entry is a new Challenger sporting a massive supercharger, and as the cars launch, they appear to be very evenly matched, at least for the first few feet.

Of course, we only see the first split second of the race, and they have 660 feet to cover, so what happens down track is anybody’s guess, at least until the episode airs and we find out for sure. Tune in Monday, March 27th to find out who takes the win in the Mega Race!
