The OPEN class in the mud bog at Tequila’s Event Center was some of the fastest mud racing around. There are no restrictions on power adders or tires, so blowers, nitrous and paddles were standard. Congratulations to all who made FAST passes and kept the event safe for other drivers and spectators.
Tequila’s Mud Bog – near Fabens, TX – 9/4/2016.
Dubai Marina, Sulafa Tower? – Are your palms sweating? Mine are! A BASE jumper makes an incredible leap from a highrise somewhere awesome in the world. The view from the balcony is stunning… almost surreal! The heavenly clouds blanket the earth in all directions obscuring the ground, while a few buildings poke through the fluffy clouds, giving a sense of scale and showing just how high up the jumper is.
What happens next, well, words can’t describe. I hope you’re not afraid of heights!
Street luge racers wreck at highway speeds. During a two-man race heat between Darius Escandar and Bob Swartz, defecation met oscillation. Swartz caught minor air at 70+ mph after drafting Escandar into a 70mph+ chicane. Upon losing control, he flies into the guardrail going 75 to 0mph in a few feet. In an effort to dodge Bob’s presumed location, Darius pulls hard right off his racing line to avoid where luge pilots ricochet in an effort to save Swartz from a deadly luge impact. With zero visibility through the debris and unable to brake while steering, he came out on the other side traveling toward the natural embankment at nearly top speed. Both riders survived with minimal injury despite the severity of the crash.
You didn’t think Jaws was gonna mellow out on this whole roof thing, did you? Hell NO! The Criddler is back, soaring from outta the sky more than ever. You gotta see this to believe it.
