Road Bashers, Rocket Corn & Races Around the World – Scott Risky’s Chaos Chronicles
From launching pistons through the house to nearly blowing up the yard with a corn-firing spud gun, this episode with Scott “Risky" Andriske is absolute bedlam in the best way. The Logan tow truck legend shares wild yarns from the road basher days—banging $400 bombs, flipping cars at parties, and sending moped races through the workshop. But it’s not all wreckage—Scott’s also a serious racer, taking on 25-hour enduros in Europe and flying the Aussie flag at Spa and Donington. One minute it’s forklifts through windscreens, the next it’s going wheel-to-wheel in Belgian rain. This episode is full throttle.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.
