Movin’ in to the Show - 55 Plans and Favorite New Products - SEMA Recap 2022

SEMA is always a good time, and I always have HIGH hopes to actually get to walk around and enjoy the show. This year though, I didn’t get to do much cursing around, but I did get to take a couple hours to visit some of my favorite companies and check out new products. We also discussed plans for the 55 and the upcoming season and the new motor. And! You can see the behind the scenes of setting up for SEMA. Now - getting ready to move into PRI and looking at plans for 2023. 🙌🏼😳

Love Dennis's philosophy. "Vegas wasn't built on winners."

[@davestevens4263]

Yes , words of a wise man , like myself, love denis

[@robertchristy9883]

I'm not throwing my money away I'm buying car parts. That line made my day.

[@Flynn2583]

Great to see content again. Really appreciate the family dynamic.

[@randywl8925]

This is one of the most enjoyable videos that you've done. I see totally different stress level than a race week when you're worried about parts availability and breaking things. You and your dad look totally relaxed and that's great to see. This video shows how far you've come and you've proven to be a real contender. You heard it a million times but your dad is awesome and the interaction between the two of you is what has made this channel so good. Congratulations on the success of your channel and thank you for the entertainment. Not just for myself but everyone commenting here, you guys are just great. 👍 By the way everyone's Halloween costumes for absolutely fantastic. That was a great addition to the video.

[@davidhoover2446]

What a nice girl and dad team. Always so cool to watch someone as young as Alex out there living out what she loves to do and being kind to everyone!

[@FrescoyMembrillo]

crane sticker was the perfect joke!

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

Nolan is a good sport about it too lol

[@billjenkins1416]

I can’t believe it has already been 2 years…. Crazy but it is still looking great and goes without saying, runs great

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

It's wild to think about - I think next year will be the best year yet for it.

[@forced4motorsports]

You, your dad and the whole team have done such an amazing job on this car. It will be bitter sweet when you move on to the next project but I still look forward to what's next. FYI - I've seen some SEMA car builds in progress at different stages and they were skin deep pieces of crap that were probably piles of rust not long after the shows they entered. May not be the norm, but they exist. I doubt many cars are as proven as the 55.

[@vxpenfold]

Love the Crane sticker 🤣🤣 sometimes the simple jokes are the best

[@chrishansley6200]

@ridingwithalextaylor your Mom has to love and enjoy watching you and your Pops doing y’all’s thing. You two are so close and talk like your best friends! I think it’s freaking awesome and I would do anything to be that close with my daughter! Very Special with your snorting laugh! 😂😂😂❤❤

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

She has a blast! Me and dad have a great time too. Thank you!

[@donschlegel1972]

Amazing work all you guys Alex I’m so so glad for you. You’ve worked hard and you just are who you are take care of your health and wellness so you can keep on for a long time.

Listen to the old man he knows what he's talking about

[@neilparson8348]

Going to SEMA has always been a dream. You are very fortunate!!!

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

Thankful to be there! It's a good time.

[@laurenschenck5355]

SO PUMPED!! 😊

[@rvdeddrift]

Been a big fan of yer pops for some time now, and regrettably never really took the time to watch you. I see lots on the socials though! What I'm gettin at is that I think I speak for LOTS when I say how hard it can be to have a host change on a MT show! Let me tell ya! Hahaha! But GD amiga... You are made for HRG, and long form "TV program" style content like that! It's a pleasure to see you at MT! Again. I speak for LOTS. Thanks dude! 🤘

[@asphaltlou]

So cool!!! Watching you Bailey and Shroeder makes want to go racing!!!! Thanks for the video looking forward for more 55 videos!

[@joecameron3406]

On my bucket list PRI and SEMA. Extremely busy week. Love hearing your dad explaining pistons. I can only imagine the discussions he had there. The SICK series most interesting. Ohio grudge racing has a no prep point series that's gained quite a following.

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

If you get the chance to go, you for sure have to.

[@clydegreenwood5673]

It all looked good

[@vehdynam]

Great video , many thanks.

Go to Steve Morris for an engine. He got Cleetus set up nicely

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

We've been chatting 👀

[@tomahoks]

👍Steve Morris👍

[@MrKhawks]

Great engines but I think Alex and her dad would rather build their own. If it all possible.

[@monkeybarmonkeyman]

What a great showing... I have to say seeing Cotton in there made me smile. He's got an out-there humor for sure.

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

haha! Cotton Candy and I have a great time.

[@Motown454]

I enjoyed that, it looks like you had a great time. Top of my bucket list!!

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

It's always a blast! Check it out if you ever get the chance.

[@L.A55]

It's great to see you back on your channel with new content !.. Love the Taylor Family Team !

[@karlringe9523]

Hi, Lol it's getting interesting!Awesome and exciting, so is the car show and your people. Ysy Hi to Turbo. I have purchased a new motor as well, well I was lucky to find a spayed cap, I think it's Dart, wait till I receive it, 4.1/2 bore and 4 1/4 stroke. It's my up grade from the 463 gen 4. I also bought a Mike Khul 6/71 to run and learn with before switching later to the hi helix 2222 8/71 when I get experience. I am starting with a cowler crank and like a dish type pisto which I'll upgrade some time after getting it to run. I haven't received the rear clip for the Holden ss vx just yet for the intermediate car. I'll practice in this car first with a Hardened bottom stroked blown ls1, then I'll switch this motor to the 463 6/71 then by then the 540 Chev Full tube chassis will be running and I'll have some experience, yay. Have fun friends, Thank you. Karl from Australia

[@richardharvey8939]

Great video 🎉❤

[@tompreciado863]

Not all of us like full painted cars, we like patina cars. The full painted cars are nice, but they are usually trailer queens. I want to drive my car and not worry about the paint.

[@Bastiaanswhereabouts]

Missing you on Hot Rod Garage. I signed up for Motortrend+ to follow your adventures.

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

Thanks for watching! We should be coming back from a mid-season break soon (I didn't even know this was thing lol) and then there are 8 more episodes to come out for this season 🙌🏼

[@radbanshee4508]

Use some of that Hot Rod Garage money and go with a Steve Morris SMX engine and shoot for the 5's at 250+MPH

Have you looked at New Century blocks? Might be hard to get, but should be able to handle the power... best cast block period.

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

I thought I had checked with them and thought they didn't have what I needed... but, I just looked them up again and not sure why it wouldn't work. I'll have to reach out again - thanks!

[@DonHopwood]

How about a Steve Morris block?

[@obsidian....]

So many tugs for all the Bluetooth driven vehicles

It’s amazing I worked for Summit for 13 years raced T/D for 6 years in Div 3 IHRA and couldn’t get any help from summit! I mean I had a employee discount but I couldn’t get them to even let me buy at summits cost! It was very disappointing!

Alex are not an employee but an business partner. It's modern marketing and all about getting positive exposure on the social medias. Alex are educated in business and marketing, so she knows how it's done.

[@Hanzyscure]

You didn't get to curse around ?

[@dividingbyzerofpv6748]

Saw the merch clip on Insta. Seeing your dad's shirt in this vidro brings up a quick question. Are your shirt logos on the front or back? Reason I ask is because I miss the 90's era surf shirt style where the big design was on the back and maybe a smaller logo was on the front in the usual pocket/heart location. Somewhere in the past 10 years shirts started getting designed with logos on the front and it like triggers some level of autism for me.

[@RidingWithAlexTaylor]

All of the shirts on my site (except women's tank and hoodie) has the main logo on the back and a small pocket logo on the front. I don't like the big logos on the front either!

[@dividingbyzerofpv6748]

Glad to hear it. May the t-shirt trend be reset to where it belongs.
