Wrapping up Sick Week 2024. It was a long hard week. We started off running our best ET on Monday. We fought to get through the week and found unexpected problems all week. But we did it and took some new hardware! Check it out her.

Thank You Megan for being on top these videos!

[@michaelhenderson5098]

Yep, and if she keeps this up, she will be a photog/reporter in no time! :)

[@glamiskid50]

Really thank you Megan and the whole family for taking us alone on the journey

[@baddriversoflittlerock8359]

@@michaelhenderson5098 I think shes already doing photog stuff local. I live not far away from them, plus I'm a hobby tog as well and think I have seen her work.

[@mbliss01]

Agreed. And thank you for keeping the music subdued at background level. A lot of other KZbinrs could learn a lot from that... Well edited and presented. Thank you!

[@1960fl]

Dennis is one hell of a Father and one awesome family team supporting Alex.

[@68houdini30]

Outstanding job Team Taylor!! Mom and Dad, Meg and Alex!! Thanks for taking us along. Great way to start 2024!! Congrats to all the Team members, family, and friends.

[@jimbreen2790]

Hats off to Dennis for building that monster pure fucking genius

[@IanWrigleyNZ]

Derek gives such a cool uncle vibe, just sitting there explaining what he's doing to Alex with zero ego or drama. VGG rocks.

VGG as in Vice Grip Garage? What's the time stamp he and Alex interacted. I think u have the wrong Derek.

No doubt in my mind that the Taylor Clan would pull it off! I notice Alex made her thoughts known, Small but Mighty!! Sis is doing a great job with videos! Poor mom has to keep everyone grounded! She deserves a trophy!! 😊

[@Cody_4]

Shoutout to the whole Bailey family! They are a staple in HotRods and Drag & Drive events. Alex has grown up in front of us on a camera, and is a wonderful role model for the sport. Also, they’ve achieved everything they’ve done keeping it family friendly. Thank you all for taking us along the journey. Congrats on 2nd, we know you’re coming for that #1 at Sick Summer. 👍✌️

[@joshjames2320]

That driveshaft shop and your boys driving skills was definitely a highlight that could have been a lowlights! Congrats team Taylor

[@dustydon6419]

I can’t think of enough positive words to say about this young lady. Super talented, smart, funny, etc. I hope her parents tell her often how proud they are, and Alex should tell them the same thing. I’ll say it every time I post a comment, well done mom & dad. Nothing like watching a beast of a woman in a man dominated sport.

[@tcjohnson3437]

Great job !!!!! In my 65 years on this rock these drag week style events have done more drag racing than anything I have ever seen. Build your ride, race it on the track and DRIVE IT to the next !!!! Love it !!!! Thanks for being a great ambassador for motorsports.

[@donaldrizzo8373]

You’re very fortunate to have your father by your side as you do this stuff God bless you and your family

[@rlh4331]

I have been a car guy for 50 plus years and IMO what the men and women of Sick Week accomplish is amazing. Go spend a day at the track and watch the work, the lack of sleep, the ingenuity, it is amazing. Congratulations to the Taylor Family and all the winners at Sick Week. You should be very proud!

[@laurenschenck5355]

CONGRATULATIONS Taylor and your family! You are rockstars! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@RandolphRelicRecovery]

Dang and double dang! That girl can drive! Great team effort. Y'all just kept digging.

Congrats on another successful run. What is really cool is how this is the family sport and everyone is together. Priceless!

[@robertbruno2863]

Was very nice meeting and speaking with you at Bradenton, and pass along to your sister, I told her it wouldn't rain the rest of the week. Congrats on your placing, and looking forward to next year.

[@zeemanjr]

Congrats Alex and Mr Taylor, well done. I've been watching your videos since before the start of the 55 build and look forward to more creative content. Oh and it would be really cool to see you go a 5 even if it's a 5.99.9.

[@z06doc86]

Meg is doing a great job behind the camera. The only down side is we rarely get to see her beautiful smiling face. Congratulations gang and thanks so much for sharing.

[@palidiciovermingagurainia1760]

Wow- l remember the Camaro- the early days. Alex has come a long way. One of the many channels l’ve watched grow- and watching Alex drive now it’s hard to believe how good she is. Best wishes to her and her racing family- and thanks to the production crew for making these videos great. Being a fan and long time sus there is nothing better to see the success and style of Alex and her Dad- plus l think you learn more about mechanical, shop life, race wisdom, and general feel for the lifestyle of everyone involved. Thanks- good luck! Always looking forward to the next video!

[@chopper1168]

I tell you what. In the most respectful way I wish there were lady’s like you when I was young. When I was your age no women your age gave two craps about racing. Nick is one lucky fella. You guys make a great team

[@25vrd48]

So proud of y'all and representing ARKANSAS and finishing extremely well . Old 55 is running very well and hang in there , 1st place is in the future . Good night from Sherwood , Arkansas . PEACE ✌

[@johngoodman7160]

It makes me smile seeing your dad's smile when you make good runs and ones that you save on car from walls

[@oldskool4580]

You guys are without a doubt the most fun team to watch at every event you enter. I will tell ya what kid, Tom should have awarded you a 9 foot tall solid gold trophy for #1 coolest Dad at that, or any other track cuz you have earned that hands down, that guy is one in a gazillion. Congrats to you, your crew, and your family.

[@charlesalvarez2577]

Love the car and the passion y'all have for hot rods and racing

[@richardmorton1310]

Major, major respect for what you, your dad, and your family do. I love it. It does give me the hee-bee-jibes watching you wrestle the slicks, and again, major props for getting it done. But I can't shake the notion of the car falling off the stands and what that would do.

[@bobbyrogers7794]

Congrats to you and your dad. Its fun to watch the father daughter relationship and the journey you guys are on.

[@SlwRpr]

Good job. Congrats on 2nd place in a big competition. I enjoyed the week of video coverage, excellent filming too, makes it easy and enjoyable to watch.

[@bigbelconut]

Congratulations Alex. It is so cool riding around with you and your dad. 100 thanks to Megan for the awesome videos.

[@valricogarcia]

It was so great being able to see you run in person down in Bradenton. The two main people I wanted to see at the event were you and Derek from Vice grip garage. You both made some excellent runs. You and your dad worked your butts off all week. Wow. That's some serious dedication. You both deserve a long vacation. Can't believe you're flying off to film HRG already. I guess you have to do as much as you can while you're still young enough to do it! I'm already looking forward to going to next years Sick week.

[@DannyNeal-g8y]

One thing I've realized: if Alex decides to leave, no one will be able to catch her! Congrats on a great week. Y'all earned it!

[@andrewhayes5353]

Wow! Alex! You drove that car!!!great job

[@insane4wheeler1]

Lutz is a old school legend... Soon Alex Taylor will be one too. Thanks for the videoing Megan. Also glad to see the doggie went.

[@wfoguy]

To the Taylor family: this has been fun, not as much as if I was the pilot but I'm in Kansas trying to survive winter. :) The last day had some levity because it was downhill. I would like to know what the trouble with the injectors were. When Dennis mentioned the road house, I'm pretty sure he and I could be friends. :) Best wishes. :)

[@michaelgallopo5879]

A big Congratulations to you and your family outstanding 👏 keep living the dream ✨️

[@Mr.Mopar.23-7]

Putting that big slick on, awesome. I have a friend. If you had a conversation with him, you'd think he had a pro stock racecar. I had to help him mount a wheel/tire onto his car for him. That's his expertise level. I'd be embarrassed to ask for help on that task.

[@Amxracer]

Cool 😎 . Congratulations Alex and your team ! 🏆🏁
