Roadkill (2012)
S07E02 The Original Vette Kart Returns!
Episode Overview
This is Roadkill, brought to you by Dodge! Back in 2010, long before Roadkill came to life, hosts David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan created the Vette Kart, a 1985 Chevy Corvette reduced to just a chassis and powertrain to minimize weight and maximize speed on a budget. This unique creation first appeared in Roadkill, Episode 35, and made a return in Episode 47, inspiring countless fans to build their own versions. The Vette Kart has already excelled in autocross, on the big track, and at the dragstrip. Now, the duo is reviving it for some dune blasting and their most unpredictable stunt yet: skiing a car, which involves driving on two wheels! They’re joined by stuntman James Smith, a ski-car expert who believes Roadkill chose the worst vehicle for this challenge, and you might find yourself agreeing after watching. Roadkill receives support from Jegs, Pilot Auto Transport, Optima Batteries, Gearstar
