Hey everyone, thanks for checking out my channel. My name is Brian Lohnes and this will be a place where you'll find videos about all manner of subjects. I am the lead broadcaster for the NHRA drag racing series on Fox sports, I am the editor in Chief of BangShift, the creator and host of the Dork-o-Motive podcast, and a guy you can see popping up on various shows and at various events.
I love the history of machines, racing, and transportation. Many of my videos will surround those topics. You'll be able to check out Dork-O-Motive episodes here, see some wrenching videos of various projects we have going on, and likely hear me drone on about tractors and other stuff if you stick around long enough.
If you are a gearhead that loves history, we're going to be fast friends.

Ford's new name is recalled .

Wow so cool to bad Ford sucks now !
That car should be recreated
Thanks for filling out the history of the 56. I knew about this car but only a bit.
This car is so cool, just needed a rear wing. I wonder why they didn’t weigh the components as they built it.
very cool history
Didn't it have a camio in the movie "Cars"? 😂😂😂😂
How about a video on Kenny Detweiller and his turbo V6 G.N.
You can play with polemics and twist your trumpaniac logic all you want...if the NHRA didn't allow a car to run a class that it fulfilled the requirement for THAT'S CALLED BEING BANNED...whether initially in the class or not.
Not Watkins Glen, but in the early 70's, my friends and I went to Road America 2 or 3 times a year for the Trans-Am series and Can-Am races. There was a pit, similar to the bog where the exact stuff you talked about happened, but probably to a lesser degree. Cars got burned. One guy took his new 240Z around the perimeter of the bog, hit a deep hole in the ground and ripped off his whole front suspension. He was lucky they didn't burn his car. One of my friends brought a 62 Corvair and intentionally got it stuck in the bottom of the pit. It didn't take long for that car to be burned and rolled over, not necessarily in that order. Oh, and most Corvair cooling fans were magnesium, so they got thrown in our own campfires. We always had tons of fun, nobody got hurt (that we knew of), but after the Trans-Am and Can-Am series were done, so were we. We did get to see the orange McLarens and the Porsche 917s run, it was a different time back then.
Amazing American ingenuity .
Brian, you're offending people.

This is a great story ! And I'm so glad there was no A.I. Narration. The voiceover here was precise, and to the point ! None of that "I can't stand not to hear the sound of my own voice B.S." ! Thank You, Great Job !
Ya. Ford supplied Germany with alot of stuff ...Coke rebranded to Fanta to sell soft drinks....War is a racket
This was one of the best videos on WWII working machines I have found to date. Full of info and photos that say a lot. Thanks for a great video, iy kept my attention thr full time !
IDK why everyone calls them Dragon Wagons because it is supposed to spelled Draggin' Wagon reffering to their job as recovery and tow trucks.
It wasn't a 425ci. IT WAS A 455CI!! unless he pulled the 455ci!!!
Used in anger??? Sad commentary.
My dad was a GM man before the war and a Cadillac man in the 50s,60s, and 70s, but he always bought Ford trucks for his business. Dad was with the Third Armored Division and he said the Ford powered tanks never let them down ever. He was glad his tank had the Ford V8 during the Bulge.
Wonder why Ford didn't scale this down for at least the Lincoln division. The Super 88, Chrysler Hemi and SBC might all be footnotes.
Excellent job! Fantastic and informative, thank you!
Basest ever v 6
I just toured Indianapolis for the first time on 6/9/24. I have watched the 500 for every single one of my 49 years due to my father's love for all things racing. He has been gone for 6 years now. I wish he could have been there with me to take it all in. He loved the fabricator years of Indy. Now to go in May and see it live...
GREAT JOB

I'm 64 years old,,,,,lived in San Bernardino as a kid,,,,,in Pomona,,,,, you could see these cars all day long,,,,, not just the strip,,,,, these things were loud and fast,,, barely legal cause of the sound they made
J.J. McClure ;)
I owned 200 acres right next to Watkins glen, I had a motocross track next door, these folks camped on my property
A stock Tesla Plaid has laid down 9.53 at 156 mph times for comparison....
Good greif what a car!.......I am thinking a street legal tribute/replica of this car but tuned with modern EFI would be super fun to see in a 80s nostalgia prostock class or at the local cruise night.
Top fuel kind of limits the rules which I'm fine with. But I would like to see a class that was unruled limited
An excellent production. I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
What an off-road fun to play with. Man what a machine
Outstanding video. Thanks for sharing it.
Love your channel, doing reasearch on the post Industrial age and all of the seemingly forgotten Engineers and Manufacturers who were important THEN but only survive today with Share-holder certificates who dont give a #$k besides tomorrow's new profit .... Gotta love War. ✌
How in the hell did they expect Porsche 356's to compete with any of these cars?
I would like to see more old pictures while he narrates one picture and some man talking is not going to do it for me
