Cars That Go Boom

Cars That Go Boom

Am I the only one who remembers this song? Suddenly I want to build a mini-truck.

You are not. See also: DJ Magic Mike & Techmaster PEB...and Gucci Crew...and Luke. I grew up in South FL. E36 M3 is in my blood.

We like the cars, the cars that go boom. Were tigra and bunny and we like the boom.

I remember seeing my first minitrucks because of this video. I still love it.

In reply to poopshovel: Luke booty music!

I was expecting Pintos.

I forgot that in the 80's the last thing a recording artist needed was talent.

I'm a closet bass head. Minitrucker as well.

Found this old photo of me mid build on the box in my '87 S-10 minitruck...

Techmaster PEB / DJ Magic Mike / pretty much anything from the 808 boom era.

I had a bunch of 12s in an 82 corolla sedan. Heh. Gimme Bass305 any day.

???

And sadly we've seen nothing but a precipitous drop from the 80's until now.

I was just talking about this song with a coworker a couple days ago. I was too young and then too poor to have a mini truck, let alone a system. We used to go to the Truck runs (Car Shows specializing in mini trucks and such) in SoCal and Arizona every year. Truckin Magazine was the E36 M3! My buddies and I used to spend hours drawing up mini truck graphics and designs for their contests.

Okay. No. If you're gonna call that music, you guys have no taste.

Me? I was hoping the thread was about this song:

I've had that song on my iPod for years, but I'd never seen the video. It's exactly what I imagined, though.

BOOM!

Love the pink trimmed Fuchs on EVERYTHING.

I don't like the boom.

They certainly didn't go too far :)

Growing up we were too poor to have cable so I saw this video on "The Box"

The Box: Music Television that you control

This song pops in to my head every now and again and I start singing it.

In reply to HeavyDuty:

That's exactly where I saw it the first hundred times.

At first I was like, cool, exploding cars, but I was wrong.

Then I was like, cool, music.

I was wrong again.

Must be too old.

I have that CD from the days when I was testing out the systems I'd help build in cars and minitrucks back in the day. It was part of a small collection of CDs of various genres that really pushed the systems to the limit. And yeah, I had custom air cooled VWs and minitrucks with boomin' sound systems, as well as a few other cars with hidden high end systems.

That 808 bass was the JAM for testing bass systems. I used it deep into the early 2000's.

Because everyone knows not a single album came out in the 80's that was anywhere near as good as everything made since.

Here's Minitrucks.

Cool, one of mine is on there (it was in Mini Truckin magazine, too):
