We were tipped off to this video by Jon Sandahl who sent an email simply entitled, “yikes”. Frankly, when we get something like that we know it is going to be gold, and this is 24-carat action. We do now know what region of the country it was filmed in, but going on the circumstantial [...]
It’s our first PowerShift LIVE of 2013, and we’ve got plenty to talk about! Join us for an hour of recap on what’s going on in the motorsports world, here on BangShift.com, and in life in general. We promise to entertain ourselves, and allow you to be a part of it. Return to this blog [...]
We’ll admit right off the bat that we have beaten down a U-Haul truck or two in our day. We got a V10 powered model high sided on a pile of tires one time. It’s kind of a long story, but let’s just say that the rev limiter on that truck got used really well. [...]
When we’re not showing you great looking Mack’s burning eight drive wheels at once on asphalt, we’re showing you a huge Peterbilt 379 dump truck that makes more than 1100hp at the tires spinning donuts and drifting sideways while throwing dirt and gravel with its eight drive wheels! We have shown videos before of guys [...]
It’s Thursday so that means that once again it is BangShift PowerShift time! Brian and Chad’s LIVE weekly show will be back and rolling tonight at 6pm Pacific and 9pm eastern. We’ll be talking about all the cool stuff we did and covered in 2012, some of our favorite cars and memories from the year [...]
(Editor’s note: Here’s the first of a new daily feature we plan on doing called the “Daily Tune-Up” where we’ll highlight a tune about cars, related to cars, good to listen to while driving or wrenching, or a tune that’s a little out there or funny and relates to the gearhead world. Have suggestions? shoot [...]
Dudes, tomorrow is the end of the world according to all the crack pot jack holes, so tonight’s episode of Power Shift should be relatively interesting since we have nothing to lose and can say or do anything we want. Right? Tune in, I have a feeling Brian will be drinking more than usual. We’ll [...]
The winters are a lot longer than the racing season in the nordic region, so guys in places like Sweden need to make their own fun. Apparently that fun came in the form of a snowy street cruise involving an alcohol funny car last winter. BangShift reader Don McGinnis tipped us off to this video [...]
After last week’s technical issues during our second episode of PowerShift hear on BangShift.com, Chad and Brian will be back at it for Part Deux TONIGHT at 6pm Pacific Time. In this week’s one hour episode we’ll talk about dragstrips, power adders, choppers, TV, and more, so tune in and watch right here. We’ll have [...]
With headlines that love to talk about binge drinking, immoral activity, and other craziness at colleges and universities around the country, it can be easy to forget that there are lots of brilliant kids doing amazing things at those places of higher learning. Take this video for example. It features a group of students at [...]
A couple of weeks back we showed you the awesome Australian V8 powered lawn tractor spinning the dyno rollers down under. We’re back today with another exceptionally overpowered lawn tractor from a different foreign locale. Actually we have no idea where this was filmed but it seems foreign so we’re going with it. Rather than [...]
The diesel truck crowd is an interesting set. On one end there are the dudes who fine tune their stuff to get crazy mileage and on the other hand there are the big lift and big horsepower guys who drag race, sled pull, and tug of war their trucks. This video shows a couple of [...]
Away from the race track Bill Jenkins was an affable man with lots of friends and stories. At the track, he was as serious as a heart attack, not all that friendly a dude, and an intense competitor. A couple weeks back we showed you epic match race footage from a long dead drag strip [...]
That’s right folks, we’re trying out a new BangShift LIVE presentation and it is sure to be something. Good or bad, we aren’t quite sure yet, but we will be live from SoCal and Mass on Thursday at 5pm Pacific Time. That’s 8pm for you guys on the East Coast, and who knows when for [...]
Ok, so we’re not 100% sure that this video was shot in Russia but frankly where else could it be? Bat shit crazy stuff seems to happen in the land of Vodka and mail order brides on a daily basis, so the odds are good that this disaster happened there. The guy who climbs on [...]
This year sucked because we didn’t get to hang out with our buddy Kyle from 1320video. We are not going to allow that to happen in next year, and decided we would give you a dose of 1320video fun. A few really good burnouts, and one Camaro in particular who’s passenger isn’t real thrilled with [...]
