The video has been around for over eight years now, but it’s the first time I can recall seeing anything like it. It’s like one of those off-roading golf karts on Mötley Crüe levels of Bolivian marching powder, or a Shriner’s car after an adrenaline injection straight to the heart. It’s a 600hp engine, transmission, transfer case, and two axles that somehow wind up about the same size as a large cruiser motorcycle, which can only mean that the driver of this ‘caged contraption has to be sitting on the transmission with soft tissue precariously close to rotating assemblies. And speaking of rotation, a quick blip or two of the throttle will send this midget truck into perfect four-wheel donuts at a moment’s notice. Or straight-line skids with the four-wheel steering set up to crab a little, because why the hell not? We don’t know if it’s one of the older “mini monster trucks” like the 460ci Ford powered “Lil’ Thump” but whatever the case, this is awesome and we’d love to know more about it!
(Thanks to Dysfunctional Veterans Official Drag Racing Team for the tip!)
This one is sporting a 460 of some sort… Pure AWESOME!!
The billboard in the background is advertising a ride at the Wisconsin Dells, so that’s probably from somewhere nearby. Wonder if it’s still around here somewhere?
Wow! Think I can convince the wife I need one for hunting? I don’t even need the blower.
It’s at a place called “edge o dells” during automotion weekend coming up this year on May 16th.
