Last week we showed you video of a fourth generation Camaro spitting both rear wheels out on the starting line at Beaver Springs Dragway in Pennsylvania. This week it is a 1957 Chevy on the starting line of  an unknown drag strip. The ’57 looks like a full on drag car with the huge by [...]

Another week, another well positioned European rally photog nearly being killed at a race. This time we take you to Latvia. Know where Latvia is? Hell no, we don’t either. If asked we would vaguely point to eastern Europe  and say, “right here!” with total confidence. Despite sounding like a place where a fictional sitcom [...]

Back in March, Pro Mod racer John Hall suffered a massive wreck during the NMRA race in Bradenton, Florida. Hall was there testing his nitrous Camaro in preparation for the then upcoming ADRL season opener in Houston, Texas. As you’ll see in this video, the car launches and covers the eighth-mile in 3.99 seconds and [...]

Wheel hop is one of the most violent sensations that you can experience in a relatively stock car. Anyone who has owned a Mustang Cobra of the SN195 variety has probably lived through it on the street or the strip. We sure know that we have. Instead of a Mustang, this video features a fourth [...]

We have seen lots of wacky helmet cam videos over the years here at BangShift but this one is on another level entirely. The video shows a quad rider running full speed down a dirt road in God knows what country. The guy’s machine is equipped with GPS and some other type of guidance device, [...]

Canadian restaurateur and Pro Mod ace Raymond Commisso suffered a massive crash at the ADRL Spring Drags contested on the famous Maple Grove Raceway drag strip. You’ll see the car launch and start to haze the tires. At about 150-200 feet down the strip the car makes a dead left and Raymond is unable to do [...]

The last violent nitrous explosion we brought you happened in Abu Dhabi, this one happened in Orlando, Florida. As you will see, a very clean looking fourth generation Camaro drag car is sitting on the starting line, presumably during a test-n-tune night at Orlando Speed World Drag Strip in Florida. The car sounds like it [...]

Dash cam videos from foreign countries have become some of our favorites to troll through on YouTube. We were actually tipped off to this one by BS reader J. Daniel Jones. It shows a dash cam perspective of a driver completely spacing out and landing on the gas instead of the brakes. Instead of stopping [...]

So far this week, Grinner Hester holds the high water mark for insane video/photo work with his capture of the Lizzy Musi wreck at the ADRL Bristol race, but he has competition. This rally photographer is one lucky son of a gun as he was shooting photos at an unknown rally in an unknown country [...]

If you combined an alcohol dragster, a monster truck, and a lunatic you would get Dennis Anderson and his insane King Sling mud truck. Rolling on massive tractor tires and powered by a motor that has to be making 2,000+ hp, it is a four wheel drive beast designed to skim over, sky over, and [...]

Pat Musi’s daughter Lizzy is no stranger to the drag strip having grown up at tracks all across the country with her dad Pat. 2012 marks her first year as a competitive driver, though. Musi was competing in Top Sportsman at the ADRL Spring Drags at Bristol last weekend and suffered a massive wreck in [...]

Multiple people just let us know about this YouTube Channel that is all about car crashes and chases. Some of them are absolutely mistifying. But the thing that makes us go hmmmmmmm the most is the fact that all of these are from vehicles with cameras mounted on the dash. They appear to all be [...]

We can’t take credit for finding this one, because it came from BangShifter extraordinaire Malcolm Dyer who happens to live in Spain and is with us on every single LIVE drag racing broadcast here at BangShift. This may be his best content tip yet. We’ve got video of the Top 30 Dyno Tuning Disasters and [...]

For those of you who weren’t watching during our huge LIVE broadcast at the 2011 PSCA Street Car Super Nationals, you missed an amazingly scary crash. For those that were with us, you know the tense moments following Rick Snavely’s flying, flipping, disintegrating run in his Pontiac, and shared thoughts and prayers with all of [...]

Racing an altered can be a real handful as this racer and the crowd at a New Zealand drag strip recently found out. As the car is launching, it gets way out of shape and ends up rolling onto the roof and smacking the wall pretty hard right in front of the crowd at Masterton [...]

Australia has some of the toughest driving laws on the books. The so called “anti-hooning” statutes can get drivers into big trouble for being busted while speeding, street racing, blowing donuts, or doing burnouts on public roads. We were surprised to see this video from Oz after being tipped off to it by a reader [...]
