LOL. I stopped watching Power Block years ago but I always thought it was funny during their budget builds when they used $12,000 crate motors that they had laying around. Cuz we all have those, right?

i love that show, that is the reason i wanted to work on motors and such.. until I realized they spent roughly 30grand to build their vehicles.. and I only had maybe 300-500 to work with. But that show did give me some good ideas and taught me a few things.

Who doesn't have a half of dozen brand new crate motors just laying around? ha ha ha ha ha "You pick up this item at your local summit store for just $499" Favorite line of those shows was at the end when they would tell you where to get the parts and the cost of the part like it was just pocket change.
