  • A 16 minute compilation of vehicles we saw throughout the 2018 Detroit Gambler 500. This is only a portion of the 813 registered vehicles, but I tried to capture the weirdest of the weird. Sorry if we missed you! I'm still going through the mud and off road footage and will post those videos soon!

      Lol my car is 7 seconds in. 200 dollars with 300,000 miles and a possible blown head gasket. All decorations and hard wood flooring was free. Best 200 bucks I ever spent too
