The Gremlin was the most popular since it could pull all 4 wheels off the ground pointing straight up however the Monte Carlo won the competition. The $10,000 prize money didn't cover the amount of damage it did.

This year they're offering $25,000 if someone can flip their car right over backwards.

Yea i know how could they not give the money to him lol. The gremlin did win the highest and longest tho. We talked to the monte carlo's owner after and he did every single thing on it from all the welding of the tube chassis to paint. The little details were so impressive, like the whole tube chassis was painted in chrome allusion paint. The car was beautiful but he said it will be back this year!!
