There’s not a whole lot of detail on Jake’s 1972 Camaro ride page, but… wow. Jake is hoping to be invited to the 2010 Grassroots Motorsports Ultimate Track Car Challenge. Check out his ride page and if you like what you see, rate him up!
Another Completely Insane WRX Swap
By Jen Dunnaway

The entire drivetrain for Theon’s Subaru Justy is out of a 2002 WRX, right down to the axles and brakes. The owner is the same maniac who built the V8 Festiva that we featured awhile back, but even he said this seemingly straightforward Subaru swap occasionally had him stumped. Check out the ride page!

This video starts with some dude doing a fat burnout in the middle of the highway, and then pans over to another dude driving on two wheels. Crazy stuff. Guess there aren’t any traffic laws in Dubai! via Jalopnik

Team Scion Day Two
bullfroger89
We rocked it. Day two was short compared to the first day. We left close to 9 a.m. and pulled into the finish line shortly before 2 p.m. Once again, we made no additional stops which reflected our time. We were the fifth team to arrive at the motel tonight. The Rally is timed with staggered starts so arriving first does not necessarily mean you are first place in the Rally.
The first checkpoint was easy to find. Today, TJ was waiting at the first checkpoint to get some footage of us arriving and leaving. Sadly, we were not there long. A quick snapshot and we took off. Our alliances for the day were Team Cobalt and Team Camaro.

Team Wicked Day Two
By Rob Combs
TeamWickedStang
Starting out at 10 am, with a quick roll thru town as we left Flagstaff. This was one of the nicest drive so far once we entered into New Mexico it looked like a scene from the movie cars with all the flat topped mountains and dessert area. Weather was gorgeous as we made it to our first check point at La Posada hotel in Winslow. This was a cool place but the police were in full effect in this town. Continuing up the road as we hit the The Jack Rabbit Trading Post for the “Special Stop.” This was fun and comical with all the different pics we got of people on the giant rabbit out front. After this we hit the Wigwam Village in Holbrook and this place was cool with all the old cars out front of these giant cement teepees. After getting back on the road and heading into New Mexico nothing but construction zones kept the speeds down to a blazing 55 mph for about 20 miles off and on.

TeamGOAT Flagstaff to Albuquerque

Day 2 of the Route 66 2010 Rally started off a little late! We didn’t leave the hotel until close to 10:30 this morning! During the night, the pranks started! We’ll admit, TeamGOAT Post-it’d TeamEvoX, with some assistance. We then moved on to TeamSlowBra with streamers! By the time we woke up this morning, two other cars had been T-P’d, including our GTO. It’s all fun and games and I’m extremely happy to know that everyone has the same respect for each other’s cars.
Our first checkpoint was the La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Arizona. The hotel was gorgeous, considering the town we drove through to get to it! It was great to actually cruise with more than our original convoy was only 3 other teams beside ourselves. Today we had the entire group minus 3. The walkie talkie’s were quite busy.
