Watch A Road Racer’s Steering Wheel Come Off During A Race And Watch Him Re-install It at Full Tilt!
Posted in FUNNY STUFF July 11, 2012 by Brian Lohnes
> >
Quick release steering wheels are both a blessing and a curse for racers. They allow easier ingress and egress from race cars but they also can fail at inopportune times, like when your car is speeding along on a race track or at Bonneville (ask Tonya Turk). This video is pretty awesome because it shows [...]
Watch a Massive “Mega Truck” Leap To Incredible Heights and Distances For No Apparent Reason
Posted in FUNNY STUFF July 10, 2012 by Brian Lohnes
> >
There are times when asking, “why?” just isn’t necessary. Consider this video one of those times. In it, you’ll see the massive classic Chevy truck of one Daniel Mundy vaulting to incredible heights and distances at some sort of four wheel drive event. It doesn’t seem that anyone was measuring for distance and height, but [...]
Ken Block’s Gymkhana 5 is LIVE and It Rules Pretty Hard!
Posted in FUNNY STUFF July 9, 2012 by Brian Lohnes
> >
The fifth installment of the DC Shoes/Ken Block Gymkhana series went live this morning and it is a great watch. The last one was kind of cheesy in our eyes but Block brought the high heat for this one. This film had some serious budget as there are helicopter shots, all kinds of cool camera [...]

Freiburger and Finnegan are back in their latest installment of Roadkill and this seems to be the most destructive one yet.

Yes, it is late to be posting stuff on a Friday, but frankly when we first saw this video we knew it would be something that BangShifters would want to see and we aim to please. We feel pretty bad for this chap in his newish looking Corvette Z06. He’s at the drag strip, traction [...]
Watch the World’s Lamest Drifting Event End With a Corvette Getting Smashed
Posted in CRASH & BURN June 22, 2012 by Brian Lohnes

When you watch this video, you’ll probably think the same thing we did on our first viewing, which was, “What the hell?” Other than the Corvette, we have no idea what the other two cars are in the video. We also have absolutely no clue as to what the purpose of them driving in a [...]

Monster Energy Drink is getting their money’s worth out of Kurt Busch in their first season as a NASCAR Nationwide Series sponsor. He’s been in the headlines for all kinds of stuff like the shoving match hissy fit that has him on probation with NASCAR currently and they almost scored a jackpot this past weekend [...]
Video Proof of Why You Never Want to Lose a Boat Tug of War
Posted in FUNNY STUFF May 22, 2012 by Brian Lohnes

We don’t know spit about boat engines around here. Boats with big blocks, small blocks, two stroke diesels, we can at least speak with some knowledge on, but outboard powered jobbies are Chinese as far as we are concerned. We were tipped off to an awesome video by Tom Phair that shows an Evinrude two [...]

While Smokey Yunick died more than 11 years ago now, his legend continues on and will for generations. We got tipped off to this truly awesome video by our pal Elana who said that it was must watch stuff. She was right. In this video Yunick is making an acceptance speech after being inducted into [...]
Watch Freiburger and Finnegan (and a pit bull) Swap the Motor in a 1969 El Camino in Summit Racing’s Parking Lot
Posted in ENGINES May 14, 2012 by Brian Lohnes

Freiburger and Finnegan are back with another episode of “Roadkill” their off-kilter adventure show where they do neat and humorous car stuff. Essentially we revel in their pain and suffering. We’re ok with that. This time the guys drive a 1969 El Camino that has been in Finnegan’s family since brand new to the Sparks, [...]
Watch a Fourth Gen Camaro Snap All 10 Wheel Studs and Lose Both Rear Wheels at the Strip!
Posted in CRASH & BURN May 11, 2012 by Brian Lohnes
> >
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 [...]
Watch Helmet Cam Video of a Guy Crashing His Quad Into a Cow at Full Tilt!
Posted in CRASH & BURN May 10, 2012 by Brian Lohnes

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, [...]
Watch Tony Stewart Give the Single Greatest Post Race Interview in NASCAR History
Posted in FUNNY STUFF May 9, 2012 by Brian Lohnes
> >
Tony Stewart is one of the greatest NASCAR racers ever. We’d actually say that he is one of the greatest American race car drivers ever because he has been in sprint crs, Indy cars, and other stuff, not just stock cars. Stewart is a fearsome competitor and also has no problem speaking his mind. He’s [...]

Regular BangShift readers know Jamey Smith. He’s the stunt driver and gearhead that has appeared in Hot Rod and a bunch of videos on both the internet and big screens of your local cinema. Smith is really good at driving cars up on two wheels and he recently decided to try and do something no [...]
Watch a Skid Plate Race From Bowman Gray Stadium
Posted in FUNNY STUFF May 7, 2012 by Brian Lohnes

Any gearhead who has had access to both a front wheel drive and plastic lunch trays has combined the two for magical parking lot hilarity. Skidding a car around like this is really fun and so long as the cops do not show up, there’s not harm in it. Now imagine taking that parking lot [...]
