I was watching some pimp my ride show on MTV and some dude builds powered wheelchairs. Mad Mike specifically called out the VQ30DE as the motor in this custom chair. Did anyone else see this last night?

 

no but that would be mad cool

 

His (MM) lisp is mad ghey.

 

How did Mad Mike go from WCC to G.A.S?

What a camera *****

 

 

I bet it has 14,000 watts of pure musical power too.

 

WCC was bought out and the old crew from PMR split to make GAS.


That said, I sound like I watch E! or some crap. I'm going to kill myself now, but I need to find the most manly way to do it. I'm leaning toward chewing up a football and choking on it.

 

Actually West Coast Customs is still around, but the contract with MTV was cancelled for season 2. Now the show is being made with Galpin Auto Sports a customizing division of Galpin ( huge dealer out here) http://www.galpinautosports.com/
I am bored sorry but no crew split to make a new shop E is crazy, BTW I got all this info from Power 106. And Mad Mike probably just begged MTV to keep his a$$.

 

...I was able to follow you up to this point.

 

What? No. West Coast Customs signed a deal with Discovery Channel because they didn't like the image that they were getting with MTV. MTV controlled too much of the show and made WCC do things that they normally don't do. WCC's talents are taking a normal car, and modifiying it's chassis to make it a coupe (Chrysler 300C). They didn't renew their contract with MTV, and so what happened was MTV looked to Gaplin Auto instead. But Gaplin didn't have an electronics wiz as bright as Mad Mike, so they made him and offer and hired him.

 

good move for WCC.

 

Indeed. I think they just recently starting shooting their show for Discovery. It's going to be along the lines of American Chopper OCC and American Hot Rod, basically. =)

 

pimp my ride is

That would be a weird topic of conversation, though. "So you got that VI on your wheelchair, yet?"

 

 

what are you talking about? metal was just saying that your post made no sense! how is "I am bored sorry but no crew split to make a new shop E is crazy" a sentence? i agree, i have no idea what it means.

 

I vote for that...

 

You are right, It was very early this morning I had not quite woken up completely . My bad metal&86

 

no prob

 

I wonder if it was comfortable?? just wondering

 

I look forward to that. i could tell their talents were wasted on that ridiculous show. I'm surprised they were able to let their name get run down like that by making those contraptions for chump change with MTV.

You can see how much they are humbling themselves when you look at the VW bug van they did, then look at the 300c coupe.
