Off-Roading a Lowrider Monte Carlo! – Roadkill Ep. 39

Posted by

Here’s a premise you haven’t seen before from the Roadkill guys: this time, Freiburger bought a car without Finnegan knowing, and Finnegan picked the road trip without Freiburger knowing. Result: the Monster Carlo! It’s a 1980 Chevy Monte Carlo lowrider with full hydraulics—perfect for lifting it up high to fit some Super Swamper off-road tires for a desert excursion to Las Vegas, where the guys meet up with the fans for a party at EBC Brakes. Along the way there’s failure, winning, more failure, three-wheeling, hopping, fire, sparks, dirt, and more psychotic laughter than you’ve ever seen in a single episode. #BecauseRoadkill.

Posted by

On this episode of Head 2 Head, presented by Tire Rack, host Jonny Lieberman puts the quickest sedan in the world up against the fastest sedan in the world. Unlike most “this versus that” competitions, the object of this match up is to figure out which family sedan is the bigger badass. In the red corner, making 691 electric horsepower and 687 pound-feet of torque, is the dual-electric motor, all-wheel drive Tesla Model S P85D. And in the blue corner, packing a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 that’s good for 707 hp and 650 pound-feet of torque. As you can gather from the power figures, these two are evenly matched. But one’s a bigger badass than the other. Watch and find out which!... Read More | Share it now!

On this episode of Ignition, presented by Tire Rack, Carlos Lago tests and reviews the new ATS-V, Cadillac’s open assault on the BMW M3. In the ATS-V’s arsenal are more power and torque from its twin-turbo V-6, adjustable dampers, an electronically controlled differential, a clever 8-speed automatic, and very sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

1970 SS Chevelle Undercover HT502 Build – Hot Rod Garage Ep. 17

Posted by

On this episode of HOT ROD Garage, presented by Lincoln Tech, we’re welcoming a new project car to the show, a 1970 Chevelle https://www.opgi.com/70chevelle/ that we’re building for the owner of OPG. Original Parts Group sells just about everything you’d need to restore one of these to factory specifications but we are gonna put our own spin on things and hide a fuel-injected HT502 in the engine bay disguised as a 454 LS6. When we’re finished we’ll have a car that has all the classic looks of a 1970’s muscle car with the power and reliability that you could have only dreamed of 45 years ago. Watch our new host pro-drifter and stunt driver Tony Angelo work with OPG’s own Jorge Lopez to transform this modern crate engine into a lookalike original big-block. Come back to HOT ROD Garage in coming episodes to see more on the OPG Chevelle.... Read More | Share it now!
