Billy the Kid DOMINATES in BOTH his cars!

The Art of Drag Racing: A Look Behind the Scenes

As we took to the stage at Showtime drag strip in Clear Water, Florida, it was clear that this was going to be an event to remember. The energy was electric, and the drivers were ready to put it all on the line in a bid for victory.

We began by taking a look at the challenges that one of our competitors had faced earlier in the day. A driver had attempted to fix a problem with their car, but unfortunately, they had ended up pulling out and leaving the event. The driver was honest about what had happened, explaining that they had been trying to figure out an issue with their car's drive shaft RPMs above 200. They had attempted to implement a secondary deactivation to solve the problem, but it wasn't working.

The other drivers were more than happy to share their own experiences and insights. One driver mentioned that they had been so busy trying to fix their own issue that they hadn't even noticed what was going on in the other lane. Another driver explained that they had been waiting for a specific car to hit the track, but it never happened.

As we made our way through the day, we came across some of the most impressive cars on the scene. From the Nova driven by Billy, who would go on to take home the win, to the Box Body with Coyote Twin Turbo that was making waves in the competition, every car had its own unique story to tell.

One of the most surprising moments of the day came when it was announced that one of the competitors had crashed and couldn't continue. The rules stated that the winner would automatically qualify for the final round, but this created a bit of confusion among the drivers. However, after some discussion, it became clear that the plan was to run the next two cars in the competition to determine who would face off in the final.

As we approached the end of the day, we were treated to an exciting semifinal matchup between Billy's Nova and a Box Body with Coyote Twin Turbo. The crowd was on the edge of their seats as the drivers took to the track, but unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be. The driver in the Box Body suffered some damage during the run, and was unable to continue.

This led to a surprising twist: Billy's Nova would face off against a different car in the final round. However, just as things were starting to look up for Billy, it was revealed that he had also been involved in an earlier crash. The driver explained that they had crossed lanes with another competitor and got them mixed up.

Despite this setback, Billy remained calm and focused. He went on to take home the win in a nail-biting final round against a car driven by a familiar face from the show. As we wrapped up the day and prepared for our next adventure, it was clear that Billy had proven himself to be one of the top drivers in the competition.

But the story didn't end there. As we spoke with some of the drivers after the event, it became clear that they were all itching to get back behind the wheel and show off their skills. One driver mentioned that they had a brand new car waiting in the wings, a 68 Mustang with a ProCharger engine that was still in its early stages of development.

We also spoke with some of the drivers about their plans for the future, including war in the woods, an annual event that brings drag racing to a whole new level. As we wrapped up our conversation, it was clear that this was going to be an event to remember, and one that would leave us all eagerly anticipating the next installment.

The Final Round: Billy Takes Home the Win

As we took to the stage for the final round, it was clear that this was going to be a showdown for the ages. Billy's Nova faced off against a familiar face from the show in a battle of speed and skill.

The crowd was electric as the drivers took to the track, their hearts racing with anticipation. The car on the left lane had been making waves all day, but would it be enough to take down Billy?

As the cars made their way down the track, the tension mounted. This was it – the final round, and only one driver could emerge victorious.

And then, in an instant, it was over. Billy's Nova crossed the finish line first, taking home the win and sending the crowd into a frenzy of cheers and applause.

We were thrilled to see Billy take home the top prize, but we also knew that this was just the beginning of a long and storied career in drag racing. With his impressive skills and unwavering dedication, we have no doubt that Billy will be back on top soon enough.

The drivers may have had their differences, but at the end of the day, they were all united by one thing: a love of speed and a passion for competition. And as we packed up our gear and said our goodbyes, it was clear that this was an event that would be remembered for years to come.

As we left the track, we couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation for what's to come next in the world of drag racing. With new cars, new drivers, and new challenges on the horizon, it's going to be an event that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

win some sometimes you lose some like that he won one like that so he's going to take over a few thousand not bad I wish he would have bumped through man is that what he bumped through is that what

from a Mockley La this morning up here to Showtime drag strip this is our first time at Showtime it was a first time at Mockley last night and there's a couple cars here that are actually from last night as well and uh Tak you some racing action here in a little bit all right so Billy the Kid is not here yet and they are drawing chip so Matt Drew chip for Billy we got two left two left oh two left second pair left lane sir good job Matt thank you you drew a good one for him I hope left lane hope he gets here in time for second pair yes for real though uh like four of the racers here are were at the race yesterday and Billy's the only one that said he was going to be here and he's not here they just thre the chip for him so hopefully he's on the way or hopefully he's close so we should be getting racing here in like 15 20 minutes in he second pair in the first class hey buddy no rush uh they just did the driver meeting your your second pair left lane I just want to let you know uh limpy slm mat Drew for you so there you go are you racing the truck or the Nova the Nova okay I was like I didn't know which one you were racing so yeah I just picked one today so I'm just try to focus on that all right we'll get her unloaded we'll see you up there second pair man good luck we got Uncle Jessie the truck versus Billy the Kid and his Nova F guys they met in the final truck class last night Billy's coming with his no all right Billy you just had tipped off for second round who'd you get I got a Mustang Coupe on nitrous is what he said Fox body deal yeah I think so gotcha um we're just going to so I I found something in the data log that was interesting my trans brake was going off after the shift down track what the and I wasn't hitting the button and every time the shift solenoid would activate the trans brake would activate right after oh jeez and my Boost Builder table was set up on trans bre uh and it would pull 14° out of it immediately when it saw a trans brake so it was pulling 14° in the middle of the pass oh so I turned the shift so it off I'm going to shift it manually and I turned the uh boost Builder table off after 4500 RPM so even if it does activate in second gear down track it won't pull the timing out of it gotcha got hopefully it'll be okay so a little bit cleaner of a pass hopefully this time yeah weird issue that randomly arised that's race car stuff yeah I wiggled all the wiring around and nothing went off on the trans brake like I'm going a lost got to be something internal or something yeah well hopefully you can limp it to to a couple more rounds hopefully good luck man we'll see you out there see you all right we got Billy hos s up here for his second round matching he's got this knockback fox body over my shoulder see what he's got my all right Billy the Kid went by a car and a half moving on to the next round I know you won but how was everything the trans brake came on again really and then it obviously hit the twostep popped well I heard the pop and it looked it like visually it seemed like it slowed down a lot got out of it and then you got back in it I don't know what's causing it man I got to figure it out though it's pissed me off yeah and eventually you're not going to have like a guy that's that slow or that slow on the light or anything so yeah um yeah I'm not going to get by with that too many more times what are you guys in the semi finals now is that what it is uh quarterfinals might be the quarters is it you guys have seven left I think seven CS so three in a bu maybe you'll pull the by that'd be nice give me more time to figure it out there you go yeah all right guys we'll see you thanks you know who you pulled this round I'm honestly not sure okay I've been so busy trying to fix that issue just do you find any so I tried to um I tried to put a secondary deactivation on it once the drive shaft RPM goes above 200 so we'll see if that fixes it okay or Band-Aids it for now do you know what Lane you're in at least um I'm in the right third pair good luck dud all right all right what's the verdict Billy well I don't think it hit the trans breake that time going down the track okay so the the d The Double whatever you did to make sure it doesn't turn on I was just waiting for it to happen it didn't never happen I was like okay I full throttled it through the finish line and I think I think it was pulling the wheels through the Finish Line a little bit really it's was pulling pretty hard my side window fell down I got to fix that is this the semi-finals or finals I think it's semis I think we're down to four okay got you you guys haven't drw chipped yet have you or you just did Tommy just went up to draw Tommy what do you get second pair left lane uh turbo Fox turbo Fox another one another one imagine that all right figure your window out all we'll see you up there all right we are down to the semifinals we've got I think it's a couple Mustangs coming up here with the first pair the second pair we got Billy in the Nova he's going up against a uh box body with coyote twin turbo pretty Bean commentation I've seen that in a couple couple different box bues pretty quick so we'll see what he can do let's take a look at the first pair let's see who he's going to be racing the final oh oh oh oh oh okay so because of that wreck the one car wrecked and the other car apparently broke so he's not able to be in the final we haven't even run the other semi-final yet but what are you talking about they were saying since the guy that won crashed and can no longer compete the guy that lost is obviously not going to go on so the next two cars that' be in the final are the two cars coming so they figured they just run that is that how they're going to do it then that's how they said they're thinking about doing is saying to makes sense but I don't that's not a final call yet gotcha so the guy that won wrecked yes oh I didn't know that part I I didn't pay cuz they crossed Lane so I got them mixed up got this is the final yeah this is going to be for the final because he can't make it back so this is going to be last of it okay yep that works small Tower final right here small Tower final good luck boys all right small Tire final we got Billy the Kid and his Nova in the right lane we got this power Twin Turbo Fox body in the left lane let's see who's taking home the money oh hey he said run your drive kind of is you good good I didn't see it happen no I just made sure was it is what it was going to be a race though I'll tell you that yeah I seen you there well it's not how you want a final to go down you don't want anybody to wreck you don't want to see anybody have something like that happen at least it wasn't too bad man no it's pretty minor pretty minor for as fast as we were going that was minor for sure uh so when are we going to see you next we're in the woods probably wor in the woods yeah you which car you bringing
