Cool video... Its like watching an episode of roadkill, but in person from a spectators point of view.

[@tomeighty]

Thanks Ryan, I'm glad you liked it! TomEighty

[@bobbybabylon1385]

since you have no heater in vehicle you need an inverter and a small electric heater with 3 settings for heat. go buy one at walmart i use 600 watt and spare battery for heat when motor is off.

[@chiefnut797]

tomeighty I live in Merrill

[@relentless.7638]

fantastic video. and awesome to see how down to earth Tony actually is. real car guy right there.

[@eatwatukill]

RoadKill is by far the best automotive show ever produced. You should have spoiler alert in the title though

[@tomeighty]

Sorry about that, I thought about it and decided against it. I'm sure this is just half of the show or less, sounds like they had an exciting trip getting there.

[@patrickmckeever2378]

Love how Roadkill gets down! You guy's kick ASS!

[@deuliciousmafuka3604]

mike finnegan highwaters and all! awesome vid!

[@vinihhhh]

im so happy to see roadkill winning not just participating

[@torqueaddict]

Cool video, nice to see behind the scenes coverage. Thanks for posting!

[@murraypcakes1250]

These two, Lucky, Dolcheck (lol) and Freiburger are just regular guys and they are heroes to so many of us. Normal people doing normal things that invite us along for the ride.

[@jamesrobinson9176]

Most roadkill ending EVER !!!!!!

[@rong4189]

Wow. Excellent quality video. Thanks for posting!

[@tomeighty]

Thanks for watching Ron! TomEighty

[@mrjaylesmeister]

I dig the trailer light shoved into the bumper.

[@steverone7623]

Awesome video thanks for filming and uploading

[@TheRoberts70]

Thanks for sharing. Great work with the video!

[@tomeighty]

Thank you!

[@LoneWolf1965]

I love that elco. That thing is a monster.

[@BustedClassicGarage]

Great video, I was sooo close to driving out there myself from IL for the event. Should be a great episode.

[@deadchewie]

Used to hitch hike to Merrill from Tomahawk when I was a kid. That was over 50 years ago and I still hate that insane Wisconsin cold.

[@donaldfuller5041]

Wish we could do this in Vermont but some lawmaker dug up some old law that as soon as any body of water freezes over it becomes a state highway and you have to abide by the 50 mph speed limit.

[@ineedasacho]

Hey Hank! Love the high waters, give Tony his snow pants back.

[@sandmansandman6819]

Thanks for sharing your video.

[@voodoopowder]

Great coverage of the race with Roadkill.

[@tomeighty]

Thank you! It was a good time out there on the ice. TomEighty

[@SethBergile]

[@ikaro1120]

[@BD-nf6go]

Awesome video!

[@dustinpoche6204]

Awsome vid looks like a win for roadkill to me!

[@davidherman8244]

Really diggg this car used have one people don't care about this body style for some reason. Go roadkill

[@aussieausdeutschland4245]

Cool vid mate.

[@79demonfire]

Decided to find this after Finnegan mentioned it on the Kibbe and Finnegan podcast.

[@racerrickweber9528]

Billy Beane That was way back in 88, didnt work out the water melted the snowbank and said water ran out. So we moved it to Mayflower lake for 3 years in Birnamwood Wis. before I got permission from the DNR ( Mike .W ) to move it back to the current location in 1991.😁

[@SLOTCARZBYMATTHEW]

OOO I LOVE THE SNOW

[@weedeater49cc]

wouldn't be roadkill less something goes wrong ...lol

[@OdySlim]

Thanks Tom! That was fun. Ody Slim

[@tomeighty]

Thanks for watching Ody! TomEighty

[@Sandkei]

Well done !

[@tomeighty]

Thank you!

[@vlfreak]

top video work and quality mate, nice! :)

[@tomeighty]

Thanks Joel!

[@omgbbqcia911]

lmao the guy talking junk at 14:40 about "thats why its running so good the heads were off" haha

[@joshsloan3866]

Love watching mike walk in slow mo all sad right b4 the announcer talking about how he never wins lol

[@CarlBright]

Thanks for the vid!

[@tomeighty]

You are welcome, thanks for watching!

[@troyfranson9897]

i was there Saturday. Was also surprised they didn't leave any parts on the track :p

[@tomeighty]

Looks like from the Instagram post they put up that they replaced the whole transmission, that last one must have been a mess. But yeah I hear ya, that Elco looks like it is ready to fall apart. It should be an epic RoadKill to watch with them going through that snow storm in Chicago and all.

[@brendonherdt8553]

Damn. Wish I had made it out there to race this year.

[@jayborchardt4742]

Welcome to Wisconsin! Get you some beer and cheese!

[@mexikong00]

Oh yes' Merrill, Wisconsin.. Home of the Snow Shack. Snowmobile parts yard.

[@evanbosch8211]

Love the ice racing

[@Mart77]

How did those wood screws' tyres hold up?

[@Clem_Kadidlehopper]

Dang it I forgot about the ice drags. Missed them a c ouiple years for not enough ice. Most of the ice drags are on the lakes. Forgot Merrill had the field they flooded to freeze.

[@johnwilburn]

An El Camino drag racing on ice.... wow. And WTF kind of tires are those?! Are they made by Pinhead from Hellraiser?

[@totsdaniel8695]

Is that BlaspHemi at 9:06??

[@David.Colvin]

what happens if there's an oil down on the ice?

[@mikestaihr5183]

I guess Finnegan should have been driving--LOL

[@42lookc]

They should have called it the Decalamino!

[@shieldsjohnjr]

Did they drive it there or trailer?

[@zacharya9937]

They should have Bots the general Mayhem

[@psykoklown874]

What?! Tony didn't break it on his first pass?!

[@boatznhoz1890]

Holy nitrous bottle

[@brandonloll4262]

Weird how the brakes won't hold you in brake stall on snowy ice! poor Cali guys lol

[@davidyoung7414]

great video and awesome quality. What camera were you using for this?

[@tomeighty]

Thanks David. I was using the Sony FDR-AX53 www.ebay.com/itm/372136430724?rmvSB=true

[@mikestraley7201]

Ever notice its always Tony that loses or breaks something every time he does something with roadkill?

[@brad11344]

I would hate to have 40 people around me watching me put 2 tires on my car.

[@tillman40]

Ice Outlaws

[@TooManyHobbiesJeremy]

Very good video. From my viewpoint as an amature video maker/editor, some more could have been trimmed on the car's return from the race. Nice titles and good effect slowing down the video after the race.

[@steviedee71]

Haha that things sick

[@brendaandjohn1416]

Freddy Kruger tires?

[@tomeighty]

Those tires are crazy aren't they? Can you imagine the amount of time it would take to make just one tire like that. Thanks for watching Brenda! TomEighty

[@SethBergile]

Use to ice race in Merrill... 3000 screws took me about 10 hours per tire!!

[@roknroy1]

looks alot different than orlando florida (83degrees today)

[@tomeighty]

Florida would be nice right about now, thanks for watching! TomEighty

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

No parts were broken because Frieburger wasn't there to thrash it to death. But it's fun when he does.

[@BurninatorTheTrogdor]

You kidding me? Tony breaks everything he touches! haha

[@mikestaihr5183]

Wish they could put the numbers up on the screen. Hard to hear the announcer's numbers....

[@etern4l_922]

Omfg of course I live in Merrill

[@justinbarney6286]

Ice Racing?!? ...I would've def thrown the body on a 4-wheel drive K5 frame :)

[@colinkulukhon-lincoln959]

Is that the elco that finnegan drove to alaska with david?

[@trailvega8321]

that was a ranchero

[@marksallee6742]

That was a Ranchero they drove to Alaska.

[@trailvega8321]

Next year bolt those studied tires on Leroy. Driven by cleetus mcfarland

[@tomeighty]

That would be awesome to see. I think Cleetus would not like the cold weather too much though. ha ha.

[@khasmir666]

What??? No breakdowns??? ;)

[@getchasome6230]

Idk if there's anything cooler than ice drag racing. 😎 see what i did there?

[@tomeighty]

Very cool. ha ha

[@andrewderstine8979]

Roadkill was a GREAT show. I think this was the most unfulfilling and dull episode ever. Need Freiburger back.

[@theofficialdiamondlou2418]

Best of the losers, not bad for Roadkill. ✌️

[@apelikemenace]

Nice VID... better than Finnegans solo shite

[@-_-Code-_-]

fuck when is the real tag team gonna be back.. or is it never???

[@Roadglide911]

2nd place-First Loser

[@Zakk-vz1wk]

What’s with all this snow prep crap?

[@allanbenthien8519]

WHOS COOLER MIKE OR TONY ITS A CONTEST

[@Scribles]

: )

[@notsure8041]

it's funny they never washed that turd

[@tomeighty]

I know, that is actually mold on the hood of that thing.

[@allanbenthien8519]

CAN MIKE AND TONY LEAVE THERE EGOS AT HOME THEY DONT GET ALONG WELL

[@allanbenthien8519]

LIKE LISTENING TO A COUPLE OF GIRLS FIGHTING

[@allanbenthien8519]

ARE THESE GUYDS DRUNL ALL THE TIME OR THEY JUST DONT SHOWER

[@allanbenthien8519]

GUYS DRUNK

[@allanbenthien8519]

TONY CANT DRIVE SHOULD HAVE LEFT MIKE AT THE WHEEL MORE WEED WOULD HAVE HELPED EMBARRASSING

[@arieln8203]

are you having a capslock issue on your keyboard?

[@bdd1469]

Ok.lol. You do realize he is a big time drifter , correct? His first time on the ice Tony tree'd a few veterans and did his part to get to the finals. Sure he pushed the front tires thru the beam but it was his first time on ice.. I'd bet Tony can out drive you in anything with four wheels, on any surface....

[@allanbenthien8519]

DRUG TEST THEM
