- Check out this crazy GSXR powered car from the minds of Hudlow Axle in Georgia. They made a VW Bug hotrod with a GSXR 1000 Motor! This thing rips. It uses air bag suspension, custom 2wd cherokee front axle, sidekick rear axle, and much more. You don't see a gsxr powered vw bug just every day so we decided to do a full feature on it. This GSXR Volkswagen flat out rips! Maybe next time he will let us drive it....

yeah thats cool and all...but i must hear more about the tank in your garage...
I see a lot of haters on here...This bug is wicked! And the craftman ship it took to build it is awesome! AWESOME Job guys!!
Jeremy Oxford hater gunna hate
couldnt say it any better
Its lower on the right side
Yeah, yeah... but what's up with that taaaaank!!!???
Mad respect for all the fab work that's in this, you're obviously quite talented.
This is awesome!! This engine kicks out 103HP more than the old 1600 Twin Port engines used to! Awesome mate!! Enjoy the ride!
A wild speed bump appears. It's supper affective!
badass
Great! You took a beetle and made it a cockroach.
ose K aka badass
BustedKnuckleVideo I admit!
BustedKnuckleVideo omg thats funniest thing.....cockroach lmfao.....
XD
R/boneappletea
so about that tank..........
THAT CAR IS LOWER THAN MY GRADES HOWW
low life
4.0 centimeters! 👨🎓
Came here for the Bug. Leaving here to see the tank!! :D
Tall Guy Small Bike we got that video too
just reminds you of the awesome power that motor had in a 2 wheeled bike!
no doubt!
Nasty, lightweight, I love hearing that rev limiter, one of the best custome rides I've seem.
It's unique that is for sure
what do you have for reverse?
The only people that are going to post negative comments are the ones that could never build something like this. So its got a bike engine, who cares ? Look past that, look at the engineering that went into it. It takes a skilled person to create, it takes a moron to criticise.
Mike Anderson too many hater nowadays. What happened to just respected the hard work as a true gearhead.
+BustedKnuckleVideo my thoughts exactly. And that's coming from a true gearhead.
+Elcamino Man It is brilliant engineering. It also is too loud and probably running too rich. His neighbours must shit bricks every time you get it out.
I'll say what I want because I don't agree with your gross generalisation. It is pointless making such sweeping statements like yours. There is more hate in it than what I had to say, which could be taken as positive or negative. There is nothing wrong with criticism if it is done constructively and without abuse.
+Fakell Acountly You are absolutely correct, there is nothing wrong with constructive criticism done in an appropriate manner. It's the people that sit behind computer screens with their negative attitudes that really burn my ass. Being an engineer myself I understand what goes into creating something of this magnitude. Way beyond the weekend warrior skill set.
Exactly. These are the same ones driving their ricer Honda's with a fart can exhaust and a NOS sticker on the window. The sticker alone gives them another 100 hp, you know?
again and again, so many great project cars have been published by the year 2013... equipped with a gixxer heart as a power plant.
and i like it... nothing wrong with that
Happy Motoring
This bloke obviously has a lot of cash, friends in the business, spare time, & car parts from other projects & other mates garages left over in his garage. I envy you.
is that a f***ing TANK in the background?!
+Steve Nast oh yeah! search hudlow tank build
SWEET!
the only thing got my attention is the track ( is it ripsaw )
Ripsaw who?
I'm loving that front suspension setup ...that looks bulletproof
Whats that tank tracks project in the background about?
Rob Strunk hudlow tank build video
I was wondering the same thing when I first saw that tread.
***** BKV said a million. Plus an additional 100 grand for me, telling you this ;)
This was on a commerical backstreet during the middle of the day (kids all at school) and we made sure it was as safe as possible. I bet you guys shit a brick when you watch the gymkhana videos...lol
uhhhh ke buen vw ,modificado pero rudo. Eso acá en México le gana a cualquier Ford o de otra marca es muy chido su auto excelente modificación saludos
thing is funking awesome
I bet the neighbors love that shit...lol
they cheer him on
This just looks like the most fun vehicle I have ever seen. Would really like to see more about the build. The super low lines and use of available low cost (relative) VW body panels, is intrigueing. Thank You.
+Paul McDonough its one unique build
its all about using the parts you have available
Man, I'd love to take that out on track and really light those tires up at speed.
BlackCavalier52 drifting would be sick
You let me know when and I'll come be your wheelman ;-)
lol
what kind of person have remaining parts of a tank in the garage? so ballsy
there is a video up. cant wait for it to be finished!
I like it for the "out of the box" thinking that went into it. Would not want to own it or build one like it but I do appreciate the work that went into it. For all you haters build one the way you think it should be done and show it to us.
john doe agreed
Yay, the steering wheel is on the correct side.
I have a 58 Devin, I would love to do this, can I have more info??? thanks
how did you the shifter????
+Erik Borg I'm assumong the clutch lever is attached to the shifting lever, you can pull the clutch in, pull towards you for shifting up and push away to shift down. At least, that's how I would have done it.
mother of street gods. the power to weight ratio looks absolutely ridiculous haha. siiiiick!
I love seeing these one-off creations actually ripping sideways and tearing up the road. Too many people build stuff and then baby it.
Sam Nolte agreed
aint beetle anymore, its a cockroach.
a badass cockroach
even nuke cant kill em
Personally not my cup of tea.
chopping the roof etc.
really devalues the car and ruins a classic.
Only a handful of people would spend the time and money restoring this thing.
Now, i visited this video to share my thoughts and ideas.
And here's an idea, Why not take on the 90's cars and newer and make those into rat rods instead of destroying vintage cars so that the next generation will have even fewer "gems" to enjoy and cruise in? Hate my comment all you want but this is the truth. Don't be so short sighted. I'm up for chatting if there's logic and viewpoints behind the comments and not just profanity. :)
Gelada Baboon Its his car so he is free to do as he wishes with it. #MERICA
Why is it that you feel the need to spew your useless opinion? If you don't like something or don't have anything nice to say than shut the F up!! What makes you think he gives a shit what you have to say? I bet you're young.... Most young people nowadays are so self centered and self righteous. Look at the whole Selfie craze going on! Its gross! This gentleman built an awesome hot rod and he also showed individuality which is more than I can say for you, spewing the same crap idiots say all the time, save the classics. How do you know this thing wasn't rusted out and dead and he actually gave it life? The car is sick and your opinion is like your asshole! It stinks!! So kindly F off!!
***** I'm 20 years old. You might see yourself as a fossil of knowledge but common sense is not automatically obtained by those with a few years under their belt. You see, Filip.
***** Yes, 20 years old.
I see you've run out of witty comments and turn to talk smack. I'm a vintage car lover at heart and comment on what i feel like.
***** He sounds mature to me. He has his opinions and all I see are other "adults" feeling the need to exercise their right to be offended - as if it gives them some sort of upper ground.
I love that..........Proper wicked machine........Well done............
Glad you like it!
That is one nice piece of work. Great sounding engine, cool fabricated body and paint. That is one nice crotch rocket or volksrod.
You might be a badass, if you have a TANK in your garage!!
Awesome car and have fun enjoying it, I love it!
Right on
That ride is both hilarious and awesome... I love the sound of a gixxer coming out of a 4-wheeled ride!
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I get tired of people making rude comments that they wouldnt say in person. Hiding behind their computer screens.
yep turn annotations on and there is a link to the video at the end.
there is a walk around video linked at the end. turn annotations on.
My just 3 year old son always ask me on computer for "the big black car that sound like Lewis Hamilton" !!
Nice little bug guy! Keep on building!
yep there is a video of the build here.
Bloody shit hot what a magnificent creation. Thumds up guys . Get her on the strip an see what she does top end against the cycle its self
neil phillips will do
Whats a thumd?
bomguy999999 . Doh ! ! ! was ment to say thumbs up . Good observation on your part.
that's the sexiest custom build I have seen yet awesome work
slick bug
its a custom tank build in progress. search hudlow tank.
If someone burnt rubber on my residential street like that I'd be out the front cheering him on
I know this guy personally and my dad is real good friends with him , I've sat in this car and seen that tank . Y'all look up "Hudlow axle" and search through some of his builds
he ever get the tank running again?
yep with a twin turbo Ls motor!
design and angles are superb
Coolest VW I've ever seen, these need to go into production!!! and also....WTF a tank?????
I saw a old mini cooper in Germany with a Busa motor. It was crazy. Another 300cc would be even better. But this was awesome
flat black would be badass.
i remember the first time i saw this video it only had a few thousand views and now it has over 2 million...why cause this bug is badass
Ya you have a real big aerodynamic presence that displaces a lot of air with a flat face that causes a lot of drag, and your 1 Liter engine is freaking huge.
no doubt one of a kind.
it does really well.
just wait til the video of it comes out...
it running a sidekick rear axle with 5.13 gears
no man is too crazy if guided in the right direction. nice!
Okay thats one of the coolest things ive ever seen
It is pretty neat for sure
yes they do.
Instant sub . No pauses either .
its unique for sure.
its a business district area, they are used to it.
pretty nice what I really want to see is that beast in the back of the garage !!!!

For the administrator and Steve. We the National Convention Rodders and dragger of Russia want to state our respect and big appreciation for your constructed Chopped Bag project. Now there were awful circumstances in the Russian Federation of Motorsport - the officials who are a little understanding motorsport especially national and available came to the sports power. Fanny car made of plastic (a fayber-carbon kevlar). In racing circles "Fantastic plastic" is called. This type of racing cars isn't present in one country of the former USSR and won't be because of existing regulations of RAF which all dragsters and hot rods forbade without any explanation. This lobbying tuning of the companies which have no interest in racing cars - to pilot models is probable, and modify only serial road cars.
Before me as to the oldest hot rodder of Moscow are costed by a design and creative task to construct the first "lo cost" available small hot rod a dragster single with the motor from the motorcycle with the minimum weight of 350 kg (770 lbs). We by the international rules with the correct accessories it is necessary to construct an ultra easy dragster Ekono Competishn E.T. 9/10 sec., from motor-1300 cm3 of Suzuki GSXR in 230 h.p. on methanol for 450 000 rubles (6500 Euro). As our fucked Lada Granta Sport, but only our racing prototype model has to be the price quicker on a strip, than Ferrari 430F! You can send for us the drawing and the hour estimate of the main expenses and materials which were necessary to you for your project "Chopped Bag"? Please help us as to us the single pilot model taking into account that now, in the territory of Russia and ALL former USSR isn't present any real racing dragster, even the small and unpretentious junior dragster is simpler to construct? Look at some my works as producer and the designer - a kastomayzer on my blog - www .drive2.ru/users/antondragchernov. We build quickly and the main thing beautiful unique bodies.
With great respect for all of you, we count on support and possible cooperation. Moscow hot rodders and draggers.
Excuse for my school English, I will better write to you in Russian - on which I speak 49 years.
9/10=-1
there is already one of those. See miller bug long travel
RAD, don't know how I missed this one!
Think is slick, and that tank is pretty cool as well
amazing how this tiny motor still manages to throw all this weight around.
Just a super fun car. I would love to build one of these.
gotta get good mpg too
WOW, IM SURPRISED THE ENGINE, HAS THE TOUEQE, TO SPIN THE WHEELS LIKE THAT. NICE!
Its all about gearing.
Does this mean a fairly low top speed? Not like it matters with a car that lights them up and looks like that. Absolutely beautiful build btw!
That car sounds EPIC
We just Gunna ignore that tank in the background?? Lol
there is a video on it
everyone acts like it is slow but It will light the tires up no problem.
There's not enough letters in the alphabet to describe how kick ass that car is.
I wouldn't worry about that lil guy
Its got a geared rearend.
i believe it is.
baddest bug evar!
there is a video. hudlow tank build
What a badass ride man! Great job!
Jesse Batema one of a kind
