Roadkill

The boys reignite their desire to go ice racing in Alaska! David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan hit the road in a 1968 Ranchero with a goal to drive 3,600 miles from Los Angeles, California, to Big Lake, Alaska, to go ice racing.

The dream of ice racing in Alaska comes true! David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan hit the road in a 1968 Ford Ranchero with a wild goal: to drive 3,600 miles from Los Angeles, California to Big Lake, Alaska to go ice racing.

David claims that this Jeep road trip is the dumbest thing that he and Mike have done. Mike buys an old Willys flatfender--one that's now a 2WD rat rod with some sketchy fabrication. The guys make it semi-safe, then hit the road.

Freidburger and Finnegan put the theory that leaf blowers can supercharge an engine and make power to the test. The guys start with a 1978 Monza Syder with 305 V8 and a four-speed stick.

A tank squashes a Prius! The guys attempt a shootout between a Toyota Prius hybrid and a 1975 AMC Gremlin. It's all fun and games until the Prius engine goes up in flames.

A Vette-powered step-side truck, nitrous oxide, drag racing and lots of burnouts are on display. David and Mike have big fun with retro trail-motorcycles while revitalizing a long-neglected HOT ROD Magazine project vehicle.

The guys go to Salt Lake City and back to race at the Midnight Drags at Rocky Mountain Raceways.

Mike Finnegan builds an 1,100-horsepower big-block and David Freiburger brings a Camaro that he's run 261 mph at the Bonneville Salt Flats. Put 'em together and it's a recipe for win, right?

A friend-of-a-friend of Roadkill decided to buy a custom car off the internet. He made an even worse decision when he allowed David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan to wrench on the thing.

David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan attack the low-buck endurance race called 24 Hours of LeMons.

A Mad-Max-vibe 1968 Dodge Charger built with motor home parts, sideways Dukes-style action, lots of low-buck wrenching and hilarious snafus are all on display.
