Crashed LS Turbo Drag And Drive Car Gets Rebuilt: The Maliboom Is Back From The Frame Shop, Let The Cutting Begin!

If you missed it, Dane Thompson’s Maliboom smacked the wall in Oklahoma during Rocky Mountain Race Week a few months ago and he’s been thrashing on it since. Despite lots of conjecture, it turns out that the real reason for the crash was nothing that anyone else guessed. It turns out that the press in plug that makes up the back of the stock LS water pump got pushed out and dumped the entire cooling system worth of water out and under the car. The crash wasn’t horrible, and nobody was hurt, but the Maliboom suffered suspension, body, and ultimately frame damage. In fact, it turns out the engine block was cracked and a few other things too. But all that can be fixed, it’s just a matter of deciding HOW it’s going to be fixed.

In the last update we shared videos about the Maliboom going to the frame shop to get straightened out so he can rebuild it, and some decisions have been made to make this thing really something special. Check out another couple videos below so you too can see what Dane is up to.
