We’re getting you tuned up for tomorrow’s awesome diesel powered feature vehicle by showing you what has to be the most insane land dwelling diesel powered vehicle on Earth. This is a European based pulling tractor that packs not one, but two 40-Liter Russian tank engines. Each of those engines sport two grapefruit swallowing turbos. [...]
Most drag racing videos center around a single class or genre of cars. Maybe it is all Funny Cars or gear jamming Super Stocks, perhaps a pile of dragsters. This video, put together by our pals at ReplayXD cameras features kick ass footage in cars ranging from Top Fuel Dragsters to Pro Touring machines on [...]
While we’re not the most versed drifting guys in the world, we know entertaining video when we see it! This three minute film shows drift-master Vaughn Gittin Jr. chasing a miniature of himself in his K&N backed Ford Mustang. While Gittin’s skills are on full display for all to see, the dude who was off [...]
The Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona is in the book and Ford power proved to be the ticket to the winner’s circle this year. Prior to the running of the race, Ricky Taylor, the driver of the SunTrust Racing Daytona Prototype took a University of Central Florida student on the ride of his life…literally. Taylor [...]
There’s nothing cooler than a full-boogie barge with a stick box. This in-car video, taken at Atco Dragway in New Jersey shows a really beautiful 1964 Impala race car getting hammered on the strip by a flat footed racer. The car sports what looks like a full stock interior, roll bar, and a five speed [...]
The lure of the Bonneville knows no bounds and creates some interesting partnerships among gearheads. This video is a very neat look at the Flower of Scotland streamliner team and profiles their efforts to set a 300+ mph record on the salt with a motorcycle powered ‘liner. The team is led by an Englishman, has [...]
Yesterday we showed you video of a dirt bike rider scaling a huge “mountain” of dirt and rocks. Well, that video was child’s play compared to this one, which features the same rider driving along the peak of what looks to be another massive mountain. There are times that this guy almost loses it and [...]
Tiny HD sports/action cameras have truly revolutionized the way us gearheads get to experience the triumphs and follies of our fellow brothers in arms. With companies like ReplayXD cranking out cameras that are about the size of a common battery and can be mounted anywhere, we get to go places that we have never gone [...]
It seems like we’re on an Aussie drag racing video kick, but bitchin’ stuff keeps jumping off the computer screen at us. Since the whole seasons thing is a swap with the southern hemisphere, the guys down in Oz are in the middle of summer and rightfully are racing like their hair is on fire. [...]
This video rules because it is a nine second run with a stick box done the old fashioned way. This dude powershifts the absolute wee out of this car enroute to a 9.25/143mpg blast. The ‘Stang apparently runs a 347ci small block with a fogger setup on it. Add that with the ratty looking paint [...]
Big tires, a sticky drag strip, and big power are the perfect equation for a big wheelstand. This Camaro proves that theory by climbing the ring gear right on the hit of the throttle. We’re guessing on the twin turbos because when the front end goes all Apollo 13, there looks to be a pair [...]
One of the cooler motor sports we’ve never gotten to see in person is the unique style of sand drags/hill climbs that are contested over in Arabia. These are wild tube chassis trucks with turbo, nitrous, and blower engines making thousands of horsepower. Racers run up giant dunes in a time trial format and the [...]
Shifter kart racing is pretty serious business. These little demon like mechanical creatures own the track records at many road courses, are blindingly fast, and can corner like no one’s business. They are also not ideal vehicles to crash in because as the driver, you are pretty much guaranteed to be launched out and eating [...]
It has been a weirdly mild in and around BangShift eastern world HQ this year. We don’t have a flake of snow on the ground and temps have been in the 40s most of the time. Luckily for us, Sweden is looking like Sweden this winter with a fresh coating of white stuff all over [...]
We saw videos of lunatic Australians racing side by side on V8 powered motorcycles on a dirt strip and immediately thought of a few jokes. We then did some research and saw that the sport was invented by a Hells Angel named Thomo causing us to immediately forgot all the jokes and frankly, it made [...]
This is one of the coolest videos we have found in a while. Normally when one thinks of lightweight 1963 Ford Galaxies powered by 600hp 427 engines the drag strip is involved. That is not the case with this awesome right hand drive model down in Australia. Competing as a vintage road racer in tiny [...]
