[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

Man seeing Ed Isky say congrats as the hot rod godfather and him still being alive is incredible!

[@TimsInsanity]

I think shed a tear after watching Ed. That is special.

[@ThomasELeClair]

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,so young a woman to achieve a lifetime of great success,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,love her.......................

[@alvinames5041]

WOW! Alex Congratulations! What A Milestone in History! Alex Taylor 200 MPH Club! KICK ASS LADY!! You're Not Gonna Sleep For A Week Now!! I Can Hear Tom Bailey Calling You Real Soon!!!You're BAD ASS Alex!! Shirley Muldowney Would Be Proud of You!!@

[@icecreamman5928]

Congratulations That's so awesome you deserve it . Keep it going

[@dsgp7835]

I agree Shadow. When you think of the generations of hot rodding Ed spans, it's brings tears to the eyes.

[@Sean-i4r]

To Alex, you should be proud of your dad,he is an amazing dad,and he kept it together, and that can't be easy when your baby is traveling 245 mph.Great job dad

[@joegreig7470]

I freaking love Keith telling all his driver's this isn't worth it. It isn't worth your life. He did the same with DF. He loves his people.

[@marlobreding7402]

Jessie Combs is smiling in Heaven❤ Congratulations🎉

[@doughty_racing]

Alex is hands down the best female ambassador for the car culture. She isnt like the ones who are worried if the angle of their pose accentuates their curves or how she looks at the gym. Keep up the awesome work Alex, your potential is endless.

[@alexhathcock1380]

Just like Jessie Combs, God Rest her soul. The tourch has been passed to Alex and the whole ATR TEAM! CONGRATS 😉

[@garyjackson3531]

She's a race car driver.

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

Alex just being clean faced, in her sportswear, getting the job done without fuss, is just the inspriration lots of young girls need to see, to know they can do the same. Just the same as Hayley Arceneaux flying on Inspiration4.

[@jefftroublefield1539]

Congratulations on your achievement, it’s been fun watching you and your family/team work together 🏁😎🏁

[@thublit]

Car culture, Emelia Hartford.

[@79koupe]

I screamed woohoo and my wife asked what. I said Alex went 236 mph on the salt. She said good for him. I didn't want to explain... Lol. These salt vids make me emotional. Love you guys! Go fast Alex!

[@andybrandner204]

Go

[@derrickwilson5260]

I have 2 daughters and this brought me to tears. Such a proud group. You deserve every bit of what you earned. Congrats

[@crankyoldman65]

Congrats Alex, Keith, Tanya, Dennis, Debbie, Nick, Nolan and Megan. Megan you are an amazing videographer, director, producer, and editor. You make each episode of ATR a pleasure to watch. 235.682!

[@barrybarry5803]

Way to go Alex, you deserve every accolade that comes your way. The respect and high regard that people have for you is testament to you as a person, and due in part to how you were raised by two amazing parents!. You have an amazing team of people around you, and last but certainly not least your incredible sister Meg who is always in the thick of it... and her filming is extraordinary!!!

[@tbusch63]

Well said! The whole Bonneville Race team is AWESOME!!! Alex did her part and everyone helped her get there deserves Kudos!!!

[@HellmuthsHotRods]

I love the sound of a drag car banging through the gears but the sound of a land speed car at full song for like a solid minute gives chills.

[@organgrindergarage]

man can't say it enough!!!WAY TO GO!!! TEAM PEAK AND TEAM ISKY and TEAM DENNIS, DEBBIE. ALEX AND MEGAN!!!! WOW CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

[@bad406camaro]

Ed is awesome! Watching his congratulations to Alex was emotional knowing firsthand how genuine he is as a person. As a young man back in the late 80`s he came out from the back of the shop in Torrance? to talk with me. I was waiting for a cam to be packaged up, just a kid buying his first ever performance cam (ISKY z-35 solid flat tappet). I was in awe the godfather literally made time out of his day to show me around the museum that was the lobby of the facility. 35 years later he did the same thing not knowing I had met him before. Just made the 120-mile trip to get a cam they special ground for me on a very last moment request. Waiting a few moments in the lobby and there he was. Super nice guy, genuine good person caring about the average buyer just as much as the major wholesale buyers. He made a life long customer of me on the first meeting.

[@mikebu6729]

As a father of a daughter, i always like they way Dennis tightens Alex's safety straps. He makes sure that the car is ready and Alex is as safe as she can be. Then he trusts Alex to be the professional that she is. They make a GREAT TEAM!!! Team Taylor and her whole family and support group are what make this channel so must fun to view. Go Alex and Team Taylor!

[@Pookybutt3]

I’ve said this before during drags he puts the dad sinch on em. Then sends his daughter down the track for a 6 sec blast.

[@L.A55]

Congratulations Alex !.. Nerves of steel, and Ability to go with it !.. Also congratulations to Dennis and the crew that made sure of your safety, and of course to Family !

[@volksnut]

So happy for you and all involved, thanks Megan for the wonderful footage and for taking us along...enjoy, we did

[@billclisham8668]

A record, a red hat, and a congrats call from Ed all in the same day? Does life get any better than that? Congrats Alex and everyone else involved!

[@fsogarage71]

Literally got chills hearing those numbers come over the radio and seeing dad's reaction..well deserved team.

[@ian1568cox]

I could feel that emotion in the truck, as the news came through on the radio. Truly incredible, well done Alex and team. And an extra shout out to Megan for getting these videos turned around so quickly 👍👍

[@anthonyjohnson100]

Dear Alex, your Mother, Father, sister, and the whole team that are with you. Been watching your channel for years now. As I woke up at 4am this morning in South Australia, I logged onto your channel, as I make the first coffee for the day. Today I'm so proud of what you have achieved, and all the people that surround you. I think for about 45 minutes of your 52-minute and 40-second video, I had tears of joy coming from my eyes. Blessings to you all, keep up the great work and just enjoy, enjoy what you've experienced. With warm regards, Ron
