This weeks episode of Thunder Races features 3 minis. The teams have to modify the minis so that they can do reverse wheelies. If you have foxtel and missed this on Saturday night it is repeated tonight (Monday 29/8) at 11.30pm on the discovery channel or tomorrow moring at 08.30.

I highly recommend it, although those of you who do not like to see minis mutilated may be a little upset by some of the modifications.

It was only the green team that went nuts.
The other teams kindly left the car in one piece.
I thought they were doing alright for an off road race track too.

Ah well, they've used minis as cannon fodder on Scrapheap Challenge, and as bowling balls, so at least these ones went. And on Monster Garage, they cut up an El Camino SS and a Lincoln Continental with suicide doors, which is a bigger crime. The worst bit is busting out the windscreens and other stuff that just gets thrown away - some people must cringe at that ' cos I'm sure those parts are really expensive in the States.

All in the name of entertainment.
