Photo Gallery: Readers Share Their Freaky (in a Good Way) Car Builds

If you want good answers, you must first ask good questions.

Our friends running Summit Racing’s social media channels are skilled at asking good questions that encourage audience participation. And whenever possible, we like to share the results of those good questions.

On a recent #FreeForAllFriday themed post on Summit Racing’s Facebook page, people were asked to share their wildest builds. And per usual, our fellow hot rodders did not disappoint.

Here’s the proof.
