We've always wanted to see the best of the best throw down on a track.

Fortunately for us, there's the Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational. For four years now, the battery maker has invited the cream of the SEMA crop to show off just what all that aftermarket hardware is good for.

This year, SPEED tagged along to see what all the fuss was about, and brought along a host of HD cameras to capture the whole event. Hosted by Bill Goldberg, the show is a good chance to catch up on some of the more impressive cars that debuted at SEMA 2011 and watch them as they do battle for the top title.

Who won out this year? We won't spoil it for you. You'll just have to look for the Optima Ultimate Street Invitational on SPEED. The show debuted this weekend, but will re-air on March 11 at 2:30 PM EST.

Going to have to check this out.

Hey guys,
Found this thread about OUSCI and thought I would drop in. Some of you know me from other boards and activities, but in my roll as Optima Bill, let me say hi and thanks for the comments. Also the show runs two more times in March for those that may have missed it.

My Charger even made the show this year, even though it was when I spun out in the autocross..haha
Bonzo, looking to see you in NJ in April?
Thanks guys,
