Drag racing is a truly global American export. None of the hot rodders that were running around on the dry lakes and then air strips of California could have ever imagined that their activities would spawn a motorsport that is enjoyed by people on all corners of the globe. Take this video from freakin’ Thailand [...]

This is the best video you’ll see regarding car stuff today anywhere. The footage was taken by a TV crew at Bonneville in 1961 and it is a truly cool profile of racer Dick Beith and his little hot rod VW bug. Through the course of the interview we learn that Dick is a shop [...]

We often show you dyno videos with NHRA Competition Eliminator engines getting spun to sky high RPM levels. Now we’re going to show you one with Comp Eliminator engines actually powering cars down the course and making those huge RPMs we all love so much. This video was taken up in NHRA’s Division 6 which [...]

We had to save what may be the best snow jump ever, for last. In fact, we are certain that we have never seen a better snow jump. Which is somehow fitting since Rabbits haul ass in the snow and jump gracefully through the puffy white stuff. So does this Rabbit, although the landing is [...]

BangShift.com is proud to announce that through a special relationship with John Deere, Brian Lohnes Edition Volkswagen Rabbits will now be available from both your local John Deere dealership or your local VW dealership.

Okay, this one is sorta not a Rabbit. See it’s a Golf. Which is a Rabbit. It just depends on where in the world you are as to what name it has. We are going to call this one a Rabbit even though the guy in the video clearly calls it a Golf and that’s [...]

Here is definitive proof that real Rabbits, just like Bugs Bunny, really do like their holes. Of course this one comes with Redneck music that would make Elmer Fudd proud, but the entertainment value is there. The next video takes off roading a Rabbit to another level however. This one cracks me up though because [...]

It’s Easter Sunday, so what better way to celebrate the commercialization of said holiday than to further promote the Easter Bunny. Of course, we are doing so with a bit of BangShift.com flair. Yep, all Rabbits, all day long. We’ve got them jumping, smoking, going down holes, and more. It’s just like Bugs Bunny! For [...]

Yesterday we showed you down track footage of Larry Dixon’s hair raising incident from Australia where his dragster apparently sheared an axle off and proceeded to blow a full 360 in the middle of the track without hitting anything! The car was turned around in three hours and proceeded to go 4.68 in the final [...]

We keep our eyes peeled for killer videos from the Swedish Formula Off Road scene because those guys build some awesome trucks that leap and fly and climb like few other things on this Earth. This video is a little different as it was shot at a Formula Off Road meet but it isn’t technically [...]

We are all used to seeing Trophy Trucks flying over whoops, and throwing big rooster tails of dust as they haul ass through Baja for the San Felipe 250, Baja 500, or Baja 1000. And we’re used to seeing the booby traps and crazy stunts that fans will perform in order to either crash vehicles [...]

Production car road racing was a major crazy in the 1960s just like production car drag racing and stock car racing were as well. The country was obsessed with speed in all of it various forms so the major automakers decided to “give ‘em what they wanted” and turned out muscle cars like 409 Impalas [...]

The Poteet and Main Speed Demon is one of the great land speed race cars of our time. The machine has steadily and methodically gotten better ad fast each year and is now the definitive title holder of the “world’s fastest wheel driven, piston powered car”. The accomplished this feat at Mike Cook’s FIA-sanctioned streamliner [...]

Mock me if you wish, but damn do I love me some modern monster truck action. This video is proof of the capability that these amazing machines have. The trucks can fly and articulate like desert racers, they have engines that make thousands of horsepower, and they have tube chassis that are as advanced and [...]

Spoiler alert — The dudes from Ridetech and the 48 Hour Camaro are going to be on an upcoming episode of the gearhead show Fast n’ Loud. As is usually the case at the Gas Monkey Garage, things got a little out of hand and the gauntlet was thrown down between the TV guys and [...]

This could be the single coolest video we have ever posted here at BangShift and we have posted literally thousands. Shot in 1956, this is 1955 Le Mans champion Mike Hawthorn, then a factory Jaguar driver making a lap of Le Mans in a D-Type Jag race car. It is before the race, so the [...]
