Rides Hot Wheels Cars
That Deora 2 was wicked all that custom fabrication was insane! that thing looked like a masterpiece. The fake supercharger was pretty funny why they didn't just connect it is a good question. Those exhaust are crazy cool. And that Escalade although being ghetto was pretty fuckin awesome too I like their theory that it's not for a driver, It's all for looks at a show so why not. Also that vacuum chamber to get the air bubbles out was pretty cool. All those machines are amazing. Those huge ass brakes on that Escalade could probably stop a freight train too, 8 piston! And if you look in the background they the Enzo from last week in the lot. And next week they make the Lexus IS 430!
Oh BTW that Twin-Mill was shown in the Rides pilot from last year it was also made by Foose along with the T-Bird he made on that episode. Also I have to go to SEMA this year.

That rides show is really cool. That Twin Mill is the most awesome piece of machinery I have ever seen. 1800hp. Wow.... I think that the Twin Mill was built on a vette stingray chasis. Does anybody know?

Yes but I can get in for two reasons: first I can go because I'm an automotive student and second I know a Dealership owner and he goes every year and has offered to take me before and this year I will take him up on his offer. There is a public part of the show but it's only about half of the enitre show.

actually zevolvs dad is just filthy rich (judging by the sig) so his dad knows stuff. in other words zevolv is spoiled as fuck and can get into things we mere unfortunates can only dream of :roll:
