Somewhere between full blown drift car and functional Mad Max vehicle you’ll find the Speed Warhouse 1991 Nissan 240SX DeathKart. The DeathKart lives up to its name, with its blown out frame and body, but it started as a full drift car straight out of Super Street or the Fast and the Furious. Built by […]

LEGO Vehicles From Mad Max: Fury Road

Ben Dahl — Mon, 01 Jun 2015 15:11:20 +0000

Tom Hardy’s performance in Mad Max: Fury Road was excellent, but any actor is going to play second fiddle to apocalyptic vehicles in our book.

The Latest Mad Max Trailer Is Incredible

Mike Newman — Wed, 10 Dec 2014 19:27:48 +0000

There are a million and one ways a new Mad Max movie could be a disaster. With so many crashes and explosions, we just fear that modern CGI will try to take center stage. The fact that George Miller is on-board is a start, and this trailer gives us hope.
