"Good news is it's race fuel and its already evaporated" I die every time I hear it. Finn slaps him with it so fast like he was waiting to tell him the whole lap. Love OG roadkill. Probably the best car show ever made.

[@RubenEggers]

I was wondering exactly the same thing! The track guy went to him quite aggressively, and he turns his shoulder out of the situation, then he came back with that line. Genius

[@vxctxm211]

"Its dumping fuel all over the track" "The good news is, it's racing fuel and its already evaporated" Best comeback dude that guy was an ass lol.

[@DroopyBuilds]

"That's just unamerican" Just that single line made me hate that guy.

[@FT30773]

***** Yeah, the guy acts like this is the first Datsun or Opel or Mazda or whatever to get an American V-engine swap. The 4.3 Chevy V6 is basically a 5.7L "350" V8 with two cylinders lopped off. These guys were within the rules to be included in the event, so why does the announcer guy hate? I was waiting for him to say, after the "un-American" comment, something to the effect of: "But it has a 4.3 Chevy V6! An American motor!" Seems most announcers that I have ever heard usually accentuate the positive, with a dry sense of humor. This guy and his tech/safety lackey was just a Rotsun Hater from the get-go, it seems. What a Donnie Downer he was as an announcer.

[@thunderwolf8908]

[@glock29sf]

I really hate to be "that guy" but, "no tuners allowed", is the type of childish shit that pisses me off. Now, if you had said no tuners could race then cool. But telling me I can't even show to the event up in the only car I have, is basically saying fuck you and the horse you rode in on because your horse isn't a mustang. I thought the love of cars was the love of CARS!! All I'm saying is, I'm a grown man that's likes CARS not car companies. German, Italian,American i don't give a fk. "I appreciate a fine body regardless of make." It just sounds like a bunch of kids saying "you can't hang with us because you're different".

[@brycehipkiss2761]

The really disappointing thing about the announcer is how he represents modern "hot rodding" as a whole. These people dont realize that the whole reason hot rodding was started was just to go fast. It wasnt supposed to be pretty. It wasnt supposed to be "correct." The goal was to go fast with what they had. Look at Carol Shelby. He is a speed-god, and I can just about garuntee most these Rotsun haters would get on their knees for Mr. Shelby. And what did he do? He stuffed an American V motor in a foreign sports car. So how are the roadkill guys any different? The announcer and the rest of haters are "unamerican" for disrespecting the combination of cultures in the pursuit of speed.

Used to own a 1971 Z car, bone stock. Drove it from Ontario Calif up I-15 then Highway 395 to Mammoth Mountain for spring skiing back in the day. Averaged 110 mph, slalomed past the few other vehicles like they were standing still. Pulled over in the desert and slept in the back with the lift gate open as nightfall set in after partaking of a hooter under the mooonlight. Completed the journey the next morning. Skied like a maniac and headed back the net day. Never overheated once. How I survived that madness is a mystery to this day. What wouldn't I give to have one today powered with a nice compact turbo V8. I'd have loved to see this car with a nice clean paintjob on it, but that wouldn't be in keeping with the Road Kill ethos haha.

wow, there's a guy here who had the same thing happen to him :) still own my 86 Gt Mustang, and hatchbacks are a lot of fun. slept overnight in swap meets, doing deals before the gates opened 6am the next day, and leaving with more stuff that i showed up with.

[@Faster1227]

yamahondarider That's bullshit, I have never seen a group of car guys tell anyone they are not welcome.

Without letting others in, how will the community grow?

[@yamahondarider]

You are more than welcome to show up as a spectator. Its a show of, and for, classic muscle cars with events including, and for, classic muscle cars. Park your import in the parking lot, and go enjoy some classics. Its a theme event, not a cars and coffee. There are plenty of mixed events to enjoy and as someone who owns and loves both imports and muscle cars I'm not biased but this is America and if a group of people with a shared specific interest want to have an event to enjoy that shared, specific interest its their right.

Nope. He said hater pipe.

Finally they’ve brought some of the KZbin videos back!

[@STAG162]

"I think we've never spent more money on a Roadkill car, that's probably why it works pretty well. Where'd those zipties go?..." No matter how much money you throw at a car, zipties will always pull off miracles when needed, compared to professional repairs.

[@HaltonLax44]

I honestly believe only a true car guy will love and appreciate this beautiful beast!!

[@arcustoms4528]

The Rotsun makes a RX7 look reliable

[@necessaryevil455]

It's a great day when 8th place makes you feel like a Bad Ass.

[@IIIErebusIII]

Some of the people there seemed a bit up there own ass. Didn't know when to let go and the announcer what a dick. But loved the Datsun what a beast. But the guy at 14:98 Summed it all up.

[@hydrapr]

21:40 "Where'd the zip ties go?" They are holding your car together, that's where.

[@jkljkl218]

"Good Guys" seem like extremely big douches who really don't love cars o-O....

[@declan2775]

they like cars, but only American cars. still they are douches

[@fatfuckhatesyou]

Those people are the worst kind of people. We have them here in Sweden as well. American cars is the only "real cars" to them... Then they show up at local car meets and talk shit about all the tuners and Volvos. Until a 5 cyl, 800 hp Volvo 245 wagon beats their heavy v8 in a dragrace. Then they leave after throwing beer bottles everywhere.. Assholes.

[@declan2775]

Viking88 those people are cunts! I like American muscle but I'd never do that! Btw - I went to Sweden, and everywhere I went there was at least one classic muscle car, why is that?

[@fatfuckhatesyou]

Declan Van Den Hoek Most people like old American cars here, not just douchebags. And we import 7-8000 classics each year because of that reason. Why it's so popular I have no idea. Guess people really like the looks. I only own one American car, a 1974 F-350 Crew cab. A giant pick up truck I use for work.

[@MrJimijt]

coz u aint sh^t

[@TwitchFast]

Didn't realise the commentators were such pricks.

[@theJenkisushi]

Pretty sure it is because they are friends. One of the roadkill boys said it back in the day that they are friends just messing with them.

[@Hotdog80085]

Best thing I've ever seen on the internet "All foreign companies have a good car or two, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, except maybe Kia..."

[@pakobravo8576]

The new kia optima looks pretty good

[@Hotdog80085]

Metallik GT But is it *good*

[@ThePucko97]

[@detritus10001]

The gift of the toolbox, and Finnie saying he was trying not to cry was awesome.

[@BrokenRRT]

mangrove jack Scottsdale douches!

[@akkalashnikova1600]

HURR DURR DATSUN UNAMURICAN Y HE EVEN HERE TO RACE?!?! Then he proceeds to come in 8th.

[@riverbankfisher]

Used to own a 1971 Z car, bone stock. Drove it from Ontario Calif up Highway 395 to Mammoth Mountain for spring skiing back in the day. Averaged 110 mph, slalomed past the few other vehicles like they were standing still. Pulled over in the desert and slept in the back with the lift gate open as nightfall set in after partaking of a hooter under the mooonlight. Completed the journey the next morning. Skied like a maniac and headed back the net day. Never overheated once. How I survived that madness is a mystery to this day. What wouldn't I give to have one today powered with a nice compact V8.

[@jeyendeoso]

I hate close talkers like that at 14:59... MAN , thats creepy

[@MRsteezy123]

i was just about to type why the hell that guy was so close.

[@s4n714g000]

Pretty sure he was trying to intimidate. Chose the wrong guy though, Mike has the best "0 fucks given" face, lol.

[@gamwpanagia]

Yeah when someone does it that to me I always get closer just to troll them lol

[@wyattrowe8396]

Every time I watch this episode I almost get the courage to go ask my neighbor about buying his old 240z. He doesn't like me and I think it's special to him so I just don't ask.

[@yankeeshane674]

Wyatt Rowe My neighbor has one (technically it's in my backyard) with a tree growing between the hood the bumper. He said I could have it if I wanna unearth it. Poor little cars always seem to end up in the wrong hands.

[@chumplinz4920]

I know right? I remember being 3 to 23 in my hometown and my friends dad had a 240 ( or a 280 I cant remember, maybe a 260 ) and it would sit in their driveway, my friends dad ( Ill call him K ) K had told me he had owned the car since his senior year in high school and told me it was like another son to him. I remember asking K if he was ever going to fix it and he said he wasn't sure seeing as life kept getting in the way, and there was multiple times I told him I could fix it for him if he had the parts but he declined every time. Sadly I went to a get together with my friend to his parents house ( back when I was 29 )and the car was gone, I asked K what had happend to it and he said the fucking city towed it away to what he believed to be a junkyard. After that my friend tells me K had been just really depressed and still kinda is but K had found a "replacement" for it which happens to be a nismo 350, which he regularly gets maintained so I guess in the end things didn't turn out to bad.

[@JeniousJustin]

3:05 "This car is actually a pretty sturdy build" Yeah...

[@willbridge7022]

It's funny how at 7:50 when finnegan says it's a theft deterrant and "who's gonna want inside of that car?" And then his tools get stolen...

[@thicok4555]

I love how they talk about someone breaking into the rotson and thinking we don’t want what’s in there and they literally broke in and took his toolbox

[@thisisyourboss]
