Thank you to these great companies for helping to make race season possible!

Drag Week 2021 kicked off 2 back to back VERY hectic weeks. We started the week with a fresh car ready to take on the challenge though. If your remember from the last video, we ran our first 7 testing the week prior. Day 1 and Day 2 of Drag Week we also managed to turn in back to back 7 second slips, setting our week off to a good start. This is the first time dad and I have really raced together and he's been my co-pilot. We had a smooth routine down that allowed us to be ahead the first couple days, but random problems and Mother Nature had different plans, especially on day 2 when we were stuck on the side of the road for hours waiting on a serious down pour to pass. It all worked out, but check out how it went down. 😬

Was just talking today about how many of us were terrified of holding the flashlight for dad when he was working on cars :) the oil on the forehead was great...we should all be so positive and tolerant in stressful situations ;)

Lucky for me, my dad's mechanical knowledge extends to mechanical pencils.

The love Alex gives to other competitors is not only unreal but quite emotional at times to witness!... if she can retain that child like excitement and enthusiasm throughout her life she will never want!

Haha Yep seen @Haulass Garage Harry & Corty at Swan Hill Dragway a few times. The '55 is great, good job on the build. waiting to see more .👍

@fredgillick3071 3 года назад

Hey Alex, It's nice to see you running the 55. It looks awesome so far. Can't wait till you break into the 6's. You have a beautiful smile now but when that happens, your smile will be priceless. Good luck and be careful and safe. I'd say pretty but you are already.

@alvinpowell6189 3 года назад

I’m so glad you guys sat out the rain! With those big meats on the back bad things could have happened. Discretion is often time the better part of valor! Race well and praying for a safe outcome!!

The car runs 7's. The driver is literally the Energizer Bunny. The lead mechanic and pit crew are second to none. What could possibly stop this beautiful behemoth of american muscle from eating up the drag week miles?........ RAIN. Haha. Appreciate the pure absurdity of that little bit of truth. Laugh it off. Another fantastic vlog Alex.

Maybe you should have installed a 57 cowel. Those don't have ribs to let the water in. On the down side, the air doesn't get into the floor vents eather then. So you will not have 2-60 air. The car sounds good!
