They Rebuilt the Transmission in Their Hotel Room! LOL

A 20 at 10-5 Faux Bracket Radial Tire from Mickey Thompson: A High-Powered Setup

It's quite the setup, indeed. This car was put in work last year, and not a lot of people expected a four-door Malibu to move out like this one does. Thank you, thank you, we have it, we have a really, really close to 850 pounds, and we're gonna try to represent really well in street racing. The small-block power adder is going to be a major factor in our chances of winning the classes.

Hell yeah man, that's gonna be fun! We've got four people in the car this year, which is a significant improvement over last year when we only had three. Last year, we were miserable with just three drivers, and now we're rolling four deep. The team includes my wife and her dad, as well as Adam. I challenged my wife to join me, and she couldn't resist the guilt of not wanting to be left out. We're all excited to see how this setup will perform.

Good parts fall off, that's right! All right, good luck to you guys man, great to see. The car is looking pretty sweet, with 1321 horsepower on tap today. Not too bad for a beautiful day of drag racing. It's always a pleasure to be back at the track, where we can kick some ass and have fun.

We're moving down to street racing now, power adder small-block power honor. The car still has an index of 850, but we've made some significant changes to improve its performance. We had to manufacture the look on the trunk lid, as the old patina was not easy to match up. We pitted the old paint to get a fresh patina, which is almost twenty years old.

The team is feeling good, and we're ready to show off our skills. With four people in the car, this year's competition is going to be fierce. We've got a strong chance of winning the classes, and I'm excited to see how it all plays out.

The pit crew has been working hard to prepare for the big day. They've rebuilt the transmission twice already, thanks to Rich's transmissions, which have automated their process. It's not always easy being a transmission builder, but someone's gotta do it! The team is feeling motivated and ready to take on the competition.

As we wait for our turn to compete, we're all excited to see how things will play out. With four drivers in the car, this year's class is going to be a real challenge. We're hoping for a strong showing and some exciting passes along the way.

With only minutes to spare before our first run, we're getting ready to put on a show. Our strategy involves burning out and making something happen – we love doing that! The crowd is waiting eagerly, and we can't wait to get started. We'll see how tomorrow plays out, but for now, it's all about the thrill of competition.

We had our hotel room, but it was taken away from us. We ended up with a new one down the street, which is better than nothing. After a good night's sleep, we're feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day. Our spirits are high, and we're excited to get started.

The team is doing well so far, with no major issues reported. The car is running smoothly, and our performance is looking strong. We've got 850 horsepower on tap today, and we're hoping for a good run. With the right strategy and teamwork, I think we can take down some tough competition and make some noise in the street racing class.

We had to rebuild the transmission twice already this year – that's what it takes to be competitive! But with our team's determination and expertise, we're always ready to get back at it. We'll see how things play out today, but I'm feeling confident about our chances of success.

The competition is looking fierce this year, but we're not intimidated. With four drivers in the car, we've got a strong team that's ready to take on all comers. We're hoping for some exciting passes and a good showing overall. With our car's impressive 1321 horsepower under the hood, I think we've got a real shot at winning.

We're getting close to making our first run, and everyone is revved up and ready to go. The crowd is cheering us on, and we can feel their energy. We're going to make some noise out there today – that's for sure!
