Extreme Barbie Jeep Racing 2015: What Better Way To Welcome The Holiday Season Like Riding A Child’s Toy Straight To The E.R.?


Extreme Barbie Jeep Racing 2015: What Better Way To Welcome The Holiday Season Like Riding A Child’s Toy Straight To The E.R.?

The Christmas music has been in full-force for at least two weeks, you’ve just now realized that the family thinks that Thanksgiving is going to be at your house and the only Turkey you have in the kitchen is the drinkable kind, the joys of shopping are starting to weigh in heavily on your mind and oh, yeah…the weather is going from that lovely kind-of-warm fall to the big gray bucket of suck that occurs just before winter slams full-force into view. Yep, it’s the most wonderful time of the year…my ass. But to a group of off-roaders in Morehead, Kentucky, it truly becomes a season spectacle, because that is when Extreme Barbie Jeep Racing hits the Dirt Nasty Off Road Park.

Setting yourself up to run one of these downhill racing events isn’t difficult. Find a used Power Wheels, strip out the gears so it will freewheel down a hill, make sure that it can support your weight, because we sincerely doubt that the 130 pound weight capacity is safe, and go for broke…literally. First racer to smash into the hay bales in whatever position they find themselves in…head-first, backwards, rotating with the wheels pointed to the sky, whatever…is the winner, and the last man standing gets $100.

On that subject, should I get an Escalade, Mustang or the dually Ram for next year’s event?

    The only turkey you have in the kitchen is the drinkable kind!

    You lads are men after my own heart – I receive 3 liters of whisky (Scotch) over the festering season and my Christmas dinner fits into a fine Waterford crystal tumbler. Wouldn’t it be cool if they used life-size inflatable Barbie dolls as targets – with a – ahem – direct hit scoring 100 points….
