You can buy working, 1/3rd or 1/4th v8 models. It'll run you about the price of a good-codition ~4 year old economy car.

Looks like rutledge gets to keep a bunch of the vehicles from the show. dude's pretty awesome when he's not reading poorly written lines.

Someone get him an account stat, with that bathroom scene at the end he'd fit right in here.

To say nothing of the cars, even.

I like that they tried to get Gas Monkey Garage but they're too busy to do a build-off.

"So, apparently these guys over at Roadkill (ever heard of them?) are challenging us to a build off. I guess they think we have nothing better to do. I mean, it's not like we're busy building 5 cars at once for the new season of Fast N' Loud or racing up a 14,000-foot mountain at Pikes Peak International Hill Climb right now or anything. We've got priorities! But, if we did have the time... what do y'all think?" :jerkbag:

idk, it just looks like some tongue-in-cheek trashtalk. That there will be a build-off is probably a foregone conclusion, and this is every involved party building up some hype.

Unless I'm naive and Richard Rawlings really is a pompous rear end in a top hat.

The Spank My Monkey/Anti-Christ marketing campaign began when the Hotrodders Bulletin Board was spammed with promotional material for a car giveaway at the upcoming SEMA Show,[1] the annual car show put on by SEMA, the Specialty Equipment Market Association. The promotional material had been posted by Dodgy Monkey Media, and it featured Gas Monkey Garage, a fairly well-known hot rod shop. Included in the promotional material was a very odd photograph and a disturbing shop video.

The promotional photograph featured the owner of Gas Monkey Garage, Richard Rawlings, posing in women's thong underwear with his shop manager. The thong underwear was imprinted with the Gas Monkey slogan: "Spank My Monkey", a slang phrase for "Masturbate Me".[2] (For more information, see: Spank My Monkey photograph.)

Popularized during the war for its rugged all-wheel drive off road capability, the Skyline, known among enthusiasts as King Kong, can be thought of as the Honda Civic of Japan for its limitless performance capabilities and quirky advertising campaign.

The Rotsun will be reborn, it's too good poo poo to die, but I'm OK with the Draguar taking its place as the best Roadkill vehicle. "I can't see the corner, the blower's in the way!"

Yup.

Here's Dale Jr.'s reaction, courtesy of SA's own WindyMan. Mute the one on the left.

To people that watch it's kind of obvious that Jr. has some issues deep down I don't think he'll ever work out. He's the nicest guy, too, it's weird how I detested his dad but love him.

From the angle he hit at all the G forces must have been towards his back and feet. Would that have been survivable at any other angle? That was a hell of a sudden stop.

Probably not, though that new gen car they have has been put through some terrible crashes. We still haven't seen what happens in a driver's door impact, though. He bruised his tailbone, so yeah, that energy went straight through his rear end.

Two feet earlier and he goes right through that fence, that pole needs a goddamn medal.

All things considered it was spread out over about a second though, which is a good deal more gentle than the last time #3 wrecked at Daytona. That fence probably saved his life vs smacking a wall.

Yeah, head on into a wall at that speed is bad news. Kyle Busch hit an unprotected part of the wall at Daytona in February, slower and at a shallower angle, and shattered his leg. So, yeah.
