CHADMOUTH: I Need Garage Space! But Don’t We All?
I know that virtually all of you will say “Me too!” after hearing me say “I need more garage space!”. It’s the universal need of all hot rodders and racers. I have 6 hot rods/projects at home, plus the $200 Hauler and Daphne’s Honda and Suburban. Good thing I live on a half acre and [...]
CHADMOUTH: SACRILEGE!!!!! BE GONE EVIL CAMARO STATION WAGON SPIRITS!!!!
Holy crap it sucks to be me. See, I’m the resident Camaro guy…AND the resident Wagon guy. So in my heart I want to like the idea of a ’69 Camaro Station Wagon. But I can’t. Not like this. It’s clearly Chevelle meets Camaro on this one, and their are just too many things not [...]
Chadmouth: When I Told Her She Sucked, She Didn’t Appreciate It. At All…
Last week we ran a Caption This Photo Blog Item with a photo of Bret Voelkel and the 48 Hour Camaro, which he had unfortunately just ran into a concrete barricade. Similar circumstances have occurred at different events I have announced over the past several years, and each time it makes me think human’s have [...]
Chadmouth: Brian Is Wrong! In Comparison To The Delorean, The Cantara Camaro RULES!!!
Posted in ChadMouth February 19, 2013 by Chad Reynolds

So it’s a jillion o’clock at night and I’m sitting here putting up items on Facebook for tomorrow’s content when I come to the Craigslist Find that Brian put up about the Cantara Camaro. And it makes me laugh. Not only because it’s Brian and he really does write some funny stuff, but also because [...]
The Best Super Bowl Commercial: Paul Harvey And Ram Trucks.
Posted in ChadMouth February 5, 2013 by Chad Reynolds

I actually started out writing this blog item as a rant, bitching and moaning about all the whining bastards who are writing negative things about the Ram Truck ad during the Super Bowl. And then I stopped. I decided that I’ll run that blog item, but it’s going to be separate. Because after watching the [...]

Chadmouth: I Ride Along In Mike Ryan’s UnFriggin Believable Big Rig At The Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational
Posted in ChadMouth November 7, 2012 by Chad Reynolds

Mike Ryan, who has won the Pike’s Peak Hillclimb more times than I can count, is one crazy bastard. And I was the guy raising my hand to take a ride in that crazy Freightliner truck of his. I love him for it by the way and would hang out with this guy anytime. When [...]
Chadmouth: More Travel Woes… Some People Shouldn’t Be Allowed To Fly…
Posted in ChadMouth October 17, 2012 by Chad Reynolds

Almost exactly a year ago I wrote a Chadmouth titled “Travel Rookies Suck”, that got a lot of interest and resulted in lots of comments, emails, and phone calls. If you didn’t catch it, click this link before reading further. It took a year to finally decide I needed to write another rant about traveling, [...]
Chadmouth: Are You F’ing Kidding Me? Self Driving Cars? The World Officially Sucks.
Posted in ChadMouth September 28, 2012 by Chad Reynolds
> >
So in the infinite wisdom of some dumb pricks in government, driverless, self driving, autonomous (or whatever the hell you want to call them) cars are now legal in California. Florida and Nevada already legalized them earlier, but this takes the cake. While lawmakers are constantly trying to stop us from driving our hot rods, [...]
Chadmouth: Why Are So Many Racers IDIOTS When It Comes To Racecar Safety?
Posted in ChadMouth September 11, 2012 by Chad Reynolds

As usual this edition of Chadmouth will probably cause some controversy, but before I get started, let me assure you that if you have read the title of this edition of Chadmouth and are immediately pissed because it is about you, you need to stop being such a narcissist because there are at least 30 [...]

So, the Monday before the Long Beach Grand Prix our guy Jimi Day, with Optima Batteries, calls and says “Hey bud, Optima is a sponsor of the World Challenge Series and I have some credentials for the Long Beach Grand Prix if you, Daphne and the kids want to come down and hang out.” My [...]
Chadmouth: Rental Cars Rule! You paid for them, so use them.
Posted in ChadMouth April 6, 2012 by Chad Reynolds

Let’s face it, most of us don’t drive like idiots all the time. Sometimes…but not all the time. Sure, we will do the occasional burnout, hang the ass end out, or brake check our buddies, but for the most part we just cruise from point A to point B with the radio going and our [...]
Chadmouth: Super Bowl Commercial Edition
Posted in ChadMouth February 6, 2012 by Chad Reynolds

Football is uniquely American, and yet Baseball and Apple Pie are always the things that get quoted. We can’t forget my favorite though when General Motors President, and U.S. Secretary of Defense, Charles Wilson replied in a Senate hearing that “…what was good for the country was good for General Motors and vice versa.” This [...]
