My good friend Jon Brenthel from Brenthel Industries just sent me a handful of photos of a brand new Ford F150 they just finished up on.  The truck is 4 wheel drive and is running their new F150 4wd long travel kit. Jon’s company builds full on trophy trucks and has taken their knowledge from professional off road racing and used it to build the best performing long travel and lift kits around.

Cool Motorized Bikes

No Comments 08 April 2010

Its not technically automotive, but it has a motor and wheels so I thought I would post it anyway. My friend Ryan had shown me this post on good old Craigs List as the two of use where considering picking up some Rukus for pit bikes. I have actually held back as I didn’t want to get another project that will drain the wallet, however when he showed me this it was something I could stomach as it comes customized.

The company is called E-Z Cruiser Bikes and based out of So Cal. The bikes range in price from $500 to most around $600, and seem to move pretty quickly while being quite. The claim 150 miles on a tank of gas which is very impressive. For more photos check out the gallery after the jump or click on their website to get a quote.

No Comments 26 February 2010

What do you get when you mix 1,000 hp motors with fully hand built machines, add in some dirt, and a huge budget? Simple. The most intense motorsport on the planet …Trophy Truck Racing. I came across this awesome video following Norman Motorsports at this years Parker 425. Its about 20min long but if gives you an overall feel of whats involved in a days worth of off road racing.  I promise you that by the end of the video you’ll have a whole new respect for the sport. (BTW they placed 7th in their class :) )

New Ken Block Testing Video

No Comments 26 February 2010

Recently I had posted up a post talking about how Ken Block had switched from working with Subaru over to Ford to drive their new Fiesta in WRC. Well him and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino, didnt have the best of luck at the Sno*Drift Rally after a problem with the suspension resulted in a DNF.

Well both Block and Gelsomino are back at it practicing again for the upcoming 100 Acre Wood Rally that’s this weekend and Monster was nice enough to provide us a Hi Res video of them tearing it up. If Block pulls of a win it will be an amazing 5th consecutive win.  Check out the video after the Jump.

73 Plymouth Cuda From New Zealand

No Comments 23 February 2010

I love classic muscle cars. It was through classics that I became the car enthusiast I am today. My father use to take me to classic car shows as a kid and owned several classics him self (68 RS Camaro Convt, 1959 Caddies, ect). However as much as he like GMs and Fords I always had a place in my heart for Mopars. My favorite was the 71 Hemi Cuda, so of course when I came across this 73 from New Zealand it was a guaranteed post.

This car is owned by Aaron Beck. The car is his first long term project and quite a successful one I would say my self. Currently the car is small block 4 speed but he has plans to upgrade later this year. “The long term goal is to build it into a street driven race car, with 440ci small block, 6 pack EFI, 4-speed, GV overdrive, stock-style but fully updated suspension, full bare-carbon front end, and custom body work.”

Check out more photos of the car in the gallery after the jump

Brenthel Industries – Class 6 Race Truck

2 Comments 16 February 2010

As some of you can tell Im into trucks just as much as Im into cars. My FJ Cruiser post should have at least hinted that. Growing up in southern California its hard not to get into trucks in one way or another. Out of anything I like seeing trucks that are built with purpose, and nothing has much more of a purpose then a truck that is built for racing from 100% scratch from the ground up. My good friend Jon Brenthel and his team at Brenthel Industries built this bad ass Class 6 Race truck that they recently just got in the dirt for testing purposes. Everything on the truck was designed in CAD and laser cut prior to assembly. The guys at Brenthel Industires only use the best and never cut corners. Check out the testing video after the jump.

Video: Rally Fighter In Full Form

No Comments 12 February 2010

The Rally Fighter by Local Motors started off just a concept is now in full form storming through the desert. Its incredible to see the unique vehicle and its design process to be in a final development form, and by the looks of the video offering just as unique driving experience. The car uses some Ford parts as well as shocks by Fox. This leads to some awesome suspension travel which of course makes for some fun in the dirt. Check out the video by clicking the Continue Reading Link below.
