What Could Possibly Go Wrong? Buying A V8 Swapped Pinto Off Craigslist And Driving It 3,000 Miles Home!

This is totally our jam! This is the kind of stuff we love to see and hear about. This is the kind of trip I’m all about and can’t wait to get back into. The gang at Fuzzy Dice Projects bought a V8 swapped Pinto project that they found on Craigslist. No big deal right? Except that they bought one located 3,000 miles from home. I mean cause why not right? So some folks might have a car purchase like this shipped home. Others might fly in and rent a truck and trailer to drive it back home. But the cool kids fly in and grab it and drive it home like a boss. Repairs, carnage, and more included. It’s fine! Check it out. This is just Part 1, and it is going to be fun.

Video Description:

What happens when you fly nearly all the way across the USA with your two best friends to buy a crappy project Pinto off of Craigslist and try to drive it back home? A lot, apparently. This is the single biggest adventure I have ever been on and we filmed nearly everything that happened along the way. This video is only the first step of a long journey but I hope that, through it, you are able to experience at least a little bit of what we went through!

TX2K23 Day 1: Mustang Nearly TAKES OUT Lamborghini, 200mph Races, And MORE

Image
It’s that time of year again when everyone converges on Houston Raceway Park for TX2K. 2023 is going to be the last TX2K to be held there, as the track is going to be closing soon. Where will it be in 2024? I’m not sure, but I’m sure they will make that announcement before the end of the event this weekend. This event is known for big performances and unfortunately some big crashes too, as folks try to push their cars to the limits for fame at TX2K. This year started out just like last year, with a crazy crash that involved a Lambo. This time the Lambo was not the crasher, but almost the crashie. Check it out! Video Description: TX2K23 is upon us, which means the fastest street cars from around the United States have gathered to compete for records, trophies, and of course – bragging rights! Last year, we saw an unprecedented amount of wrecks, most of which were Supercars. This year seems to be taking a similar route, however we can’t take away from the insane level of cars that thi...

Helmet Sale: Simpson And Racequip Are On Sale Now! Quit Using A Crap Helmet.

Image
I just got back from Holley’s LSFest West in Las Vegas and the number of people who are racing, or trying to race, wearing crappy helmets, or those that are NOT designed to be used in a car or truck, still blows me away. It gets better all the time, but even so, we need more people to do the right thing for themselves and buy a good helmet. I remember when I got my first helmet that was actually bought for me to use while racing cars. It was awesome. It fit better than anything I’d ever borrowed, and it was mine. I loved it. I have had several helmets since, but regardless of my budget, I’ve always bought a helmet that is specifically made for racing cars and is certified for doing so. Helmets can be expensive, but they don’t have to be. With this new sale coming out of Holley, their Simpson and Racequip brands are both having helmet sales. Yes, a clear-coated carbon fiber helmet is going to be more expensive than a painted one. But from a safety perspective, you can get the same prot...
