[@paulrogersjr]

Seriously, who in their right mind tries to outsmart a Glidden?

[@rosspreen5718]

All part of the "show" I love it !!

[@joelsotocontreras9563]

Like father like son

[@joecampise1128]

love the Glidden family

[@mybelovedson]

RIP Bob he is missed

[@mytubeU812]

Looks like Billy is a lot better at that game!

[@turbooomann]

Billy is a master mine when it comes to drag racing

[@michaelroach4219]

That was really cool.A little drama helps th o liven up the proceedings,and Billy Glidden continues the Glidden legacy.

[@BigBoyO56]

Why would any dare try to get in Glidden's' head? LMAO

[@thehighlife1320]

Marlon Thomas Jr Because money and pride was on Coughlin's mind. Billy had plans on dinner. Billy has a great mind. And an encyclopedic knowledge on racing.

RIP E-town

[@Gump-tion]

Staging battles are so cool to watch!

[@dougwelker7402]

Thank you for posting this, I had read about it but couldn't find video. That was great.

[@1951RKP]

Rare to have a stagging battle in Pro Mod. I guess Coughlins turbo didn't like that long delay. Both of these racers are great drivers with rich family history.

[@RPM_MEDIA7]

if I remember correctly troy had a broke motor and only went to the line to hopefully get him to red-light. Glidden didn't know but all in good fun

[@1951RKP]

+Rory Malloy --- I saw later that he had a broke transmission. Can't blame him for trying.

[@jayer-su3hu]

Love and really miss a good ole fashioned burndown. Really miss them in pro stock and nitro. Good stuff!!

[@stevecr8934]

Waiting on him then pounded out a smooth straight run. That's called "Blowing your doors off" folks.

[@carlthomas963]

way 2 go Billy!!!

[@davesilva75]

[@1969mach111]

[@wood4278]

All Day... "I BLEED BLUE"

[@Legacy82x]

Damn that was awesome

[@JAAB9296]

Billy took Coughlin to school !

[@michaelgreenwood9859]

RIP Raceway Park

[@kelvinbryant7602]

I miss Billy Glidden. I'm a Ford man it pissy me off how they done him n his dad

[@bluesky-ud9wg]

I've been a BG fan since he Destroyed the NMCA class in the 1990's with a SBF. Someone NEEDS to pick him back up as a major sponsor for the Greatest Class in the NHRA, PRO MOD. I stopped buying M/T Tires as soon as they dropped him. Hoosier now....He WILL win, just pick him back up...

[@LAVAROCK100]

chevy's don't like heat billy's ford could have sat there all day lol

[@SealofPerfection]

Doesn't have a thing to do with the motor

[@LAVAROCK100]

lol ok

[@SealofPerfection]

The heat, I mean. There's no such thing as "Chevy's don't like heat and the Ford could have sat there all day". Complete, utter BS. Only thing that controls that is the cooling system. Put a crappy cooling system on anything and it won't like sitting there.

[@LAVAROCK100]

you actually thought i was serious its called sarcasm..troys car is turbo charged billys is a nitrous car so a turbo car on boost getting the turbos spooled up and just sitting there will get hotter than a carbureted nitrous car thats a fact.....nothing to do with make or model

[@BustedWalletGarage]

Pacfanweb actually , it's not engine temperature , it's transmission temps that burn a car down at the line.

[@lightning95sc]

You CANNOT beat a Glidden at a starting line burndown. The Coughlins have been around drag racing long enough to know better than to try this on a Glidden. Troy was feelin his oats and got his ass spanked for his trouble.

[@grabbber]

I have a cooling system that works great for these rare occasions. :)

[@robertpetersen6122]

[@joecampise1128]

[@derriklee287]

Joe Campise doesn't have a Ford motor either, too bad for him.

[@michaelwallbrown3726]

[@NitroModelsAndComics]
