45 Days in Jail For Making a Car Video - Was It Worth It? | Blake Wilkey Tells ALL
Whoa, dude! If it isn’t Off-Road Spicoli: the urban legend behind Urban Assault, king of the dirt and crown prince of the waves – Blake Wilkey! Arriving from his native San Diego with a warm smile and a glint in his eye, you just know this mystical rad-man has wild stories to relate. From his earliest days on the water, to his mechanical upbringing in the dirt, he found his way to mythic status when he turned his hand to building bugs (some of them, you may just have heard before!). Before long, that mischievous gleam in his eye landed upon his own city, and when Urban Assault exploded across the internet in 2016, his legend was as cemented as perhaps the most radical (..ok, nefarious) character in the automotive space. Now, he’s here to tell the full tale as well as his other antics, including the NORRA, Baja, his own brand Shreddy Lyfe and his latest diabolical creation…. the death boat? So! Turn on, tune in and drop out to this freestylin’, tube-wave-ridin’ conversation.
