Thanks guys, it was an awesome time with my Dad and all of our Drag Week friends that could make it.
For a small drag week of 288 cars it sure had some good action. Some of the cars on this thing are just Amazing, like Devin Vanderhoofs stock suspension convertible Mustang going 6.8X@200+ on a 275 radial.....crazy stuff. Sooo many cool cars. You gotta take your brand loyalty and set it aside and appreciate the work on some of these cars.

Bucket list for me is to do a Drag week in something. I saw an earlier video of Tom's and they interviewed one guy that said something I liked ... you should quick your job and do drag and drives ... something to that effect , I think it was the guy with the lime greenish 70/71/72 Monte Carlo ...
running up my post count some more .

He appeared to be well funded, either quit your job or do whatever he does! That Monte is NICE, $90,000 engine before anything else is done, and every inch of it I saw was perfect. It isn't often I go back several times to look a car over but I did with that one. https://youtu.be/L2nSzAxKGsk?si=kmZMgpkkPWbPM8NL

They definitely aren't doing fabrication, or body work in there...

That's Devin's shop - from what I understand he only does plumbing, wiring and tuning for customers. Little to no fabrication on his end.
His Mustang is incredible in person, I saw it at Sick Summer. Everything on it is well thought out and it has lots of unique features, like the quick release air filter, air jacks, plenty of cupholders, etc

Agreed on his Mustang, its so advanced but its so clean it looks simple. The air jacks are sweet, must be nice to have enough horsepower on tap to not worry about weight for items like that.
