Believe it or not, this car started life as a bog-standard 1995 BMW 325. Owner Carl Balzer saved this once-dignified German sedan from the scrapyard, stripped it down to its most basic elements and then went to town creating a bonkers build. These days it's a street legal 1200bhp E36 go kart packing a massively turbocharged LS engine under its er, lack of bonnet. With all that power and a differential from an old M5, this thing is quite the drift machine. Watch Top Gear's Tuning Correspondent experience this wild build first hand and in typical Dahm fashion, push it beyond its limits...

We love Atlanta Dragway! So many memories created here for us on and off camera. Like many of you, we're sad to see it go. This video is our last time at the drag strip, at the SCT Atlanta event, before it closes and gets torn down. Not only did we document the entire event, we also got to hear some great stories form people that have been going to the strip for years. We hope you enjoy the video!

It was hard to miss this Silverado in the pits at StreetCar Takeover - Atlanta, being a full size pickup with a bright green paint job. It's easy to overlook the autocross style aero on the car, when there are slicks and a Laguna style exhaust coming out of the bed of the truck. What this seasoned autocross racer didn't know, was that he was about to break a drag racing record on the new setup!

Sketchy Vert has quite the history with us. We've filmed this car since the beginning and its pretty incredible to see how far it has come. In this video, we spotted Jered at SCT Denver with Sketchy's new setup from PFI Speed! The car isn't quite the sketchy h-pattern car it used to be back in the day, but it is MUCH faster now.

The R8 is back in Denver for Street Car Takeover and we're ready to see what it's capable of. We've got the power max'd out and some good tires er' - now it's time to see how effectively we can put that power down in the quarter mile!

While cruising through the pits at SCT Charlotte, we stumbled upon this beautiful E36 M3. With a turbocharged 3.0L, paired seamlessly with an 2017 F-Series M4 DCT transmission, this 900hp monster put away damn near ever car that it raced against. Who doesn't like a little clash of old school and new school technology?

Nobody has run a 9 in the U.S. with Audi's 4.0L twin turbo platform, until NOW. Eurowise Performance bolted everything they could to this thing and ripped out as much interior as possible! That paired with some magic on the laptop allowed them to CRUSH their goal! There's not a faster RS7 in the states!

This car used to have about 80 horsepower from the factory and now it's going 60 feet in 1 second! Bowser is a nitrous car that doesn't mess around. He really Dominated this year at Street Car Takeover Charlotte and we hope to see this car in the near future!

We’ve met tons of people who have built their race cars themselves, but how many of them have completely built a whole car? These builds are awesome finds due to the unique relationship between the driver and the creation, hence the owner dubbing the kart “Frankenstein”. Competing in Streetcar Takeover Denver’s roll and drag racing classes, this Franken-Kart proved to be one of the most exciting racers to follow of the whole event! The cherry on top is that it’s totally street legal and he drives it all the time!

Streetcar Takeover’s event at Bandimere Speedway in Denver, Colorado brings us awesome new builds year after year. This time we crossed paths with a V8 Mercedes E55 which didn’t sound like the V8 note we’ve come to expect out of E55, making it a car we had to make our way over to. While it’s not so surprising post-event, we were pleasantly surprised by what we saw when he popped the hood! This Mercedes looks and sounds gorgeous on and off the track with the custom paint and the rumbling V8, and we couldn’t get enough of it!

Saturn is not a name you hear much in the automotive world since they shut down years back, but even more rare is hearing about a street legal 500hp Saturn powered GoKart! Fortunately for us, we were able to have one of our first encounters with a DF Goblin kit car in person at Street Car Takeover in Atlanta, Georgia. Even more fortunately for us, we knew the owner as we’ve previously featured him on the channel before with his Saturn Ion Redline (and now you know why we bring up Saturn instead of the typical Cobalt platform for the DF Goblin application). That should also help identify why it’s no surprise to see this tiny 4 cylinder cranking out a familiar 500hp, however the catch here is that this kit car weighs just 1600lbs (that’s WITH the driver)! In addition to catching this zippy GoKart on it’s maiden voyage to the drag strip, we were able to sneak a ride in out on the highway (a very very very very windy ride). Check it out and let us know what you think, and maybe we’ll see some more of these kit cars out next year!

Zach has had crazy dreams since we first met him at a half mile event in Dallas a few years ago, when this Taurus was only gutted interior + a little nitrous. Needless to say Zach has gone way off the deep end as he created the worlds only 1,000HP Ford Taurus SHO (that’s something we never thought we would hear). Zach has certainly chose the path least traveled here and that is what makes this build so freaking COOL! We’re thrilled to be able to cover such a unique build that has truly tested Zach’s will and determination. +10 rep for going against the grain Zach - We can’t wait to see this thing break out of the 9’s!
