Bubba Drift: 360 Degrees Of El Camino Hoonage

Forget, for a moment, any preconceived notions you have about organized drifting events. Clear your mind and watch Bubba Drift's El Camino as it gracefully performs 360-degree drifts with billows of smoke pouring out behind. If this video isn't awesome enough, consider this; while most pro drifters use a manual transmission, the Bubba Drift El Camino uses a GM TH350 3-speed automatic. Because who needs a clutch when you've got plenty of power from a supercharged LS1? [BubbaDrift.com via YouTube]

Maximum El Camino Day: We Celebrate The Pontiac G8 Sport Truck, Return Of The "El Camino"

If you happened to be under a rock all weekend, you may have missed our official unveil of the Pontiac G8 sport truck (soon to be the Pontiac G8 El Camino - remember to get over and Vote El Camino!) for all the world to see. If you're a site regular, you know this is kind of a big deal. Given that, we decided one measly midnight post on a Saturday wouldn't cut it for a site like Jalopnik, so we're going nuts and declaring it Maximum El Camino Day today. We had so much fun with Maximum Wagon Day that this seemed like the only logical way to celebrate the greatest thing to ever happen to our world of car-truck-crazy enthusiasts. Stay tuned for the rest of the day for all manner of -camino, -chero, -ampage, or other suffix-style truck-car delights. Just follow along at the Maximum El Camino Day tag for all the fun before we see the official in-person reveal of the new 'merican-Mex hybrid later this week at the New York Auto Show.
