    After spending the weekend with my buddy I thought it was appropriate to share this clip..

    It might be a bit off topic but it features HAMBERS so its not too off.. In this clip we find Myself, Bob Bleed, Johnny Cola, Alex Gambino, Keith Weesner and Spaghetti Mike partaking in a bit of craziness...

    The idea behind it was that we would make a ramp out of plywood and an old trailer then take a Toyota corolla (Full With Gas!) and place 3 dummies in it representing me, Gambino and Wees as it launches off the ramp and send us back home to cali. We really had no idea what was going to happen we just wanted to see a car jump... So after the ramp was built
    we had to come up with a way to make the car go without any drivers.. The PLAN: drive the car to the ramp then back it up in a straight line... then strap the wheel so its locked straight for the target.. tie the throttle wide open then with a rope drop into gear!!! Sounds like a fool proof plan HAHAHAHAHAHAA....Well as you can see in the video things didn't go as planned.. DANGER! DANGER!

    Reminds me of when we tore down someones (wont mention names, but there might be another HAMBer who was there) chicken coup. We started to burn the remains, laid one of the walls on top of the fire intact. Didnt take long for some genius to realize it made a ramp over the fire, next thing you know hes jumping his Suzuki RM370 over the fire...

    Yeah if Bob is laughing like that then you should probably duck. Or climb the closest tree.

    Or grab a fire extinguisher.

    Or double check to see if you've recently updated your insurance policies.

    I love these madmen. . .

    So the car is totally out of control..Cars are parked around us and we had no idea witch way it was going to go... once Bob pulled the rope it was going for a second but then it just started doing donuts...hahaha then it stops for a second and takes off in the the small forest coming to rest at the fence!! the car is still running and turns out the key fell out of the ignition...so we could not shut it off!! the headers begin to light the grass on fire when Johnny pushes the cars with the Polaris... Oh shit the car is now heading down hill backwards into a ditch... hahahahaa What a great time... :D

    Clearly a noble attempt...the set up genius.

    If there was a guy there in camo or a hunters orange jumsuit

    That thing would still be in the air.
