    Once this video got going, I figured the over/under on number of sleeves on this guy's shirt had to be one. I'm glad I took the under.

    This thing is clearly born out of a drunken bet. Without them the world would be a boring place.


    I want one, but I'd also want a 1/2" steel plate between me and the motor. Ya know, keepin'it safe.

    I was expecting Arkansas or Texas, some Southern Rednecks but it looks like it's in Wisconsin Dells, WI. He seems just like one of my Redneck cousins there.

    Wow. Just wow. This guy's a bit of brave and stupid, pulling those donuts so close to that many motorcycles. Can you imagine the ass-whoopin' if he took out eight or twelve of them? I'd also like to know how he managed to get a license plate for it, considering that it seems to lack a windshield, headlights, taillights, mufflers and some other things that it's basically illegal everywhere to run on the street without. Of course, there's a chance that he just took a plate and screwed it to the back for shits and giggles, but I'd hate to be driving it (with those red lights going, no less) when a bored cop saw it go by.


    That said, this thing is fucking awesome!

    All of America's transportation problems are solved.


    Interesting juxtaposition of articles this morning, Ben. I'm trying not to visualize a commute with these mini monster trucks mixed in with electric 3 wheelers. The up side is that the two might average out to meet Obama's new CAFE standard.

    So...he wants to compensate for something by having a 600hp engine and huge wheels, but doesn't want anyone to know that he is compensating for something so he makes it a mini?


    Is there a "yo, dawg" joke in there somewhere?

    It doesn't pop wheelies?


    It's okay, I'm only mildly disappointed.
