About Us

Welcome to GUY CODE, the official blog of MTV2's "Guy Code" series and your online destination for all things dude, including—but not limited to—irreverent commentary on sports, hip-hop and ladies. Stay awhile and flex your manhood.

If you spent 12 hours a day in your car like those poor mopes who live in L.A. (sorry poor mopes who live in L.A.!) then you'd probably care about it as much as the dudes at Hollywood Hot Rods care about theirs. Our friends over at Vimby paid Troy, HHR's owner, a visit recently and he took them on a tour of his hot rod factory. The rides this place churns out are unbelievable, but if you want to drive one, you need to make sure you look the part. That means a sailor's tattoo, a pompadour and a short-sleeved shirt with a pack of cigs rolled up in the sleeve. Then you can drive around that little demon shown 33 seconds in and look like you belong in it.

Perhaps you've heard by now about 17-year-old Steven Ortiz, who spent two years trading stuff on Craigslist and eventually fetched a 2000 Porsche Boxster S for an old cell phone. Seriously, it happened.

Along the way, Ortiz had his hands on a MacBook Pro, dirt bikes, a 1987 Toyota 4Runner and a 1975 Ford Bronco before landing the Porsche. What we can't figure out is why he stopped there?

The logical next move would have been to trade the Porsche for a used Prius, which he could have then swapped to a feel-good environmentalist for a Lexus, and three moves later he's got a Rolls Royce, which he could have traded for a pre-owned Gulfstream G450. No reason to stop there either.

The reward might take some time, but with some hard negotiation and a few more trades he could have had Red Rock Island in the San Francisco Bay, currently on sale for a cool $22 million.

So there's your lesson, youth of America: Don't be a quitter. You just might end up with a 10-year-old car when you could have had an island.

Crossover athletes aren't a new thing. Ancient Olympians battled in everything from track to equestrian events, and they did it all in their underwear. Jim Thorpe made a career as an Olympic pentathlete and a pro football, baseball and basketball player. More recently, John Daly pulled double duty as a PGA golfer and the guy bumming money from college girls for Bud Heavy tall boys and a spin on the jukebox.

So when our friends at Alli went looking for action-sport crossover athletes, they didn't have to look hard. Speed junkies notoriously have trouble kicking the habit, and BMX vert master Jamie Bestwick is no exception. Alli recently followed the British-born biker to the Toyota Grand Prix Celebrity Race, where other celebs like Keanu and Tony Hawk raced Jamie as he ditched his two self-powered wheels for four gas-powered ones.

Just think of it as a Rascal Scooter for the clinically extreme.
