RODS

What happens when you take a typical 200 horsepower V6 motor out of a new Lexus and drop in a V8? Major horsepower! That is what racecar phenom and off-road champion Rod Millen will be doing on this installment of RIDES. We'll follow Rod as he re-engineers the entire car: chassis, suspension, drive train the whole thing. We will also take an in-depth look at the people and technologies that are pushing the horsepower and performance games to the limits. This edition of RIDES will utilize the legendary Millen as a guide through the worlds of racing, off-road, engineering and building from the garage floor up.
