Chip Foose is no stranger to cool cars, whether in the project stage or finished or anywhere in between. But what you might not think about is that Chip is a hot rodder just like the rest of us and when he gets the chance to check out a cool collection of projects and parts and pieces, he’s going to jump at it. And in this particular video you are going to see him check out the collection of Allen Decker and boy are we glad he made this visit. This is the kind of collection of cars and trucks an

With average gas prices in the country in the $4.50 range today, it’s no wonder folks are trying to get better gas mileage right now. For many of the drivers across the country it is going to depend on what you drive as to how much mileage improvement you can see with some of these tips and tricks. If you drive a truck, like jillions of other Americans that have no need for one, then making improvements of just a couple miles per gallon can have a big impact on the percentage of gain you get fro

This is a cool episode of Capturing Car Culture if you are like us and love to see factory and how its made videos. I’ve been on several automotive assembly plant tours and can tell you that regardless of what they are building it is fun to watch. But this assembly line and area are a bit different than the norm, because rather than spending seconds per station, these cars are being built to go fast and that means putting them together slowly. The GR line of Toyotas are special built performance

Randy Pobst can wheel a race car, and on too many occasions to count we’ve seen him do it. But he also enjoys a quick and fast street car which means that upgrades are often in order. In the video series starting below, we’ll see his 1977 Pontiac Trans Am get some suspension love. But don’t think that this is some old original worn out machine that is getting the upgrades so they can show a huge improvement. No, this car has had a bunch of work done to it to get it into ship shape, and now it’s

If you are new around there then you might not know that we seriously dig Formula Off-Road racing here at BANGshift.com. This is high flying, loud, and intense racing that involves what look to be impossible hillclimbs, usually on giant courses made from pea gravel or something similar. It’s intense, the cars often end up upside down or rolling over down a hill. They end up rightside up on their own sometimes, but regardless the action is fun and kind of nuts. These drivers do some stuff that I’

The inaugural Southeast Gassers Association event at Holiday Raceway produced a true brawl in The Bama Brawl, where racers duked it out amongst themselves and the track.
