Hoon Of The Day: Leap Day Edition
We've brought you some of the best Leap Year themed jackassery we could find today, and now it's your turn to decide which one takes todays hoon of the day crown. We realize that whittling down such stupidity to a clear and decisive winner may be a bit much to ask, but we have a feeling you have it in there somewhere. Just take a moment to think about this Leap Day Celebration, and then ask "What Would The Duke Boys Do?" More »

Guns and Ramping, Can Life Get Better?
We really like these guys, they know how to start off a video - couple of reports from a camouflaged pump action shot gun and you've got our attention. They seem to have stumbled into a junkyard with a copious supply of perfectly drivable, and yet totally disposable cars. Take that set up, add the sketchiest looking ramp we've seen in a while, a little ACDC, and you've got the makin's for a good ole time. Dirty deeds indeed.

Chihuahua Based Problem Causes Moron To Crash
What Leap Day Celebration would be complete without an homage to accidental off roading? In a happy timing coincidence, moron Scott Calderon managed to crash his Chrysler Town and Country yesterday, but the circumstances have us smacking our foreheads in disbelief. Mr. Calderon was driving on the highway and swerved to miss a utility truck and barricade on a closed bridge. We're not sure why he had to swerve to miss a clearly marked bridge that was out, but follow along and you might get a little insight. More »

Air-Powered Jumping Cutlass
Not all air gained by cars is done so by forward motion. Check out this stripped down '86 Cutlass which someone has seen fit to outfit with a serious air cylinder system and dubbed the Cyclone. Don't know how many times it will be blowing through anywhere though cause the leaper looks like it gets pretty trashed in this clip of aerial acrobatics. Rocking a 60 gallon tank at 390 PSI, this thing it packing some serious stored energy. Now all we need is somebody to drive this off a ramp and hit the switch at just the right moment.

Watch Out For That Tree!
This nomination for Hoon Of The Leap Day is all about the graceful finish. Both drivers get some decent air on their backwoods jumps, but they don't stop there. While most hoons crash during the jump or upon landing, these guys added a bonus crash after the jump.Warning: Mandatory NSFW language on the second video.

Look At The Bugs In My Beer
Unlike the fail-hoons earlier, this clip shows aspiring degenerates everywhere how things are done. Not only does this gentleman confidently forego all safety equipment unlike our recommendations, he also does without a shirt and is Canadian. With a plan that is well laid out and a sarcastic cameraman documenting things, the joy of thoroughly stuffing a car is recorded. We can't believe that thing drove away.
