I made a one and done pass because I’ve driven through Chicago several times and knew it was going to suck. Got on the road at 11:30 to get past that place. I’m pretty sure I commented in the drag week group to get out of there as early as possible.

When you have a fuel pressure issue one of the first things you should check is your fuel filter it’s the easiest and cheapest problem to repair and most times it turns out to be the actual issue in my experience

@lethlbu_Racing; Your introduction is very well done from the start with the alarm clock moments before the alarm ring at 5:30 AM, in the dark, then launching into the Drag Week 2021 on the calendar, clip compilations of You, the driver, owner, to the leaving the hotel and getting Your partner. Seems very well thought out, implemented and professional along with the background music choice. Your Chevy Nova is also beautiful and especially appreciate and enjoy the sky-powder blue with all of the Chrome and finish. Hope You do well and enjoy the Drag Week event and competition too. Somehow had not seen Your videos of Your participation last year, though will be looking for them all this year to watch and enjoy. My awareness of the many channels and these events only began last year and with just a few channels too. Gradually have expanded to others who are participants and especially good videographers, editors, presenters and good characters with good character and characteristics. Noticed You drove quite a distance from New Jersey to participate in this event too. All The Best and Much Success in You Quest, Health and Well Being. Sincerely
