My Favorite Types of Modified Cars

[Mike]

I’ve concluded that this is the most appropriate place to post this. I just wanted expose you to a couple of my favorite kinds of modified cars, which happen to be overlooked by much of the car enthusiast community (mostly in the US). I really appreciate insane machines, especially the sounds, but nothing more than just seeing what people will do to cars.

1st, 1/8 mile uphill sand drag racing. For the engines, it’s the same as tractor pulling (which I love, too) but it’s a completely different useless waste of a once-practical vehicle.

2nd, European Hillclimbing Cars. Incredibly unrestricted vehicle construction in a culture where people are anal about thoughtful but practical engineering. It also helps that most of Europe has laws requiring 4 weeks or more of paid vacation per year. Lots of time for working on the car!
