In our never-ending effort to bring you all things motorsport, here is some racing ridiculousness that can't be ignored. That's right racefans- parts truck racing.

Run whatcha brung...
A true blender doesn't care that he's (or she's) at work. Doesn't mind driving a utilitarian van if that's what pays the bills. Unfortunately when that irresistible piece of road is set before you, you sometimes need to attack it with the tool you have, no matter how un-ideal it may be.
Now that's something you don't see everyday -
Some people will race anything with wheels.
File this under "unconventional racing platforms", "101 uses for a big-rig", or "dude, where's my trailer?".
I file it under "heavy-duty Blending"... but that's just me...
And your eyes did not deceive you... that was a full-on power slide in a cab-over big rig. If that isn't BLENDING; I don't know what is!
"Betcha I could drift that!"
So lets take some guesses of what was said in the 3 minutes prior to this video being shot:
There are some BlendLines decals for the best 5 comments posted! Get your creative juices flowin'!!!
Tanner FTW
Yeah, yeah, record jump. Ok, ok, side show to the Indy 500. Purpose built stadium truck promoting children's toys, whatever. 100 ft replica of a bedroom door, great gimmick. Said truck landing with barely any bounce whatsoever; SNORE....
What was most amazing to me was that as his truck was still in the air, it was all over the Twitterverse that Tanner Foust was the driver of the record setting stunt. So much for "check our Facebook page for the identity.." crap.
So this is what he quit D1 for? Really? Can't imagine what his fee is for something like this...
The Ultimate Thrashing Machine
I am a big fan of the BMW X5. Especially the E53 incarnation. I have one myself; it serves as utility vehicle, my wife's chariot, the baby bus, track toy tow rig, and overall primary household truckster.
Big Rig Rallyin'
Keeping all that tonnage under some semblance of control is impressive. I see they have ample acceleration, handle considerably well, and you have to respect that suspension travel, but how well do you think they stop?

Absolutely Useless File - #4
I'm somewhat impressed by the creativity. It's a Fauxlorean.
I suspect a deft PhotoShop hand, what are your thoughts?

Mass + Speed = ...well, you decide!
Sometimes more is, well, just more. Anyone who says size doesn't matter probably wasn't that big. We are still talking about motorsports, so take it easy.
We at BlendLines are determined to expose our readers to all forms of motorsport insanity, so here's today's dose of motorhead junkie juice.
A big dose.
