Say what you want about the cheap race car challenge, I kinda dig it. Most people(including myself) assumed it costs tens of thousands to be a weekend warrior. After just one run, they’ve proven you can enter the sport for under $10k. 🏁🦅🇺🇸

[@TheKajunkat]

I think I saw a couple 10mm sockets tinkling down the track too, haha.

[@DaveAppleton]

I'd like to see the rules be that you have to hand a time slip in for each track but you drop your worst time. What happens for example if you get halfway down the track, there's fluid down which nobody saw meaning you wheel spin and nearly crash having to back out of it losing loads of time, and that's your only run for that track. You also get a situation where Tom on the first day gets a 20 and then has to decide whether it's worth doing the whole event with the quickest car, as a Spectator we don't want the quickest cars dropping out because they have one bad track.

[@R3B3Lnet]

Maybe more than one day at each track with these events getting to 350+ cars....

[@jeremyhanna3852]

Maybe replace it with a different time slip from any track that hasn't already been turned in

[@WilliamDundon]

Come on TOM!!!!!! Use this as a testing week for the year. We all get how pissed you are. But this car is capable of amazing times. What ever you do I hope tomorrow is better.

[@Pedroisanickname]

One of the highlights of the video for me was the Tim Blythe interview. There's obviously a connection there I'm not aware of but can appreciate just the same. I wish all the interviews were as entertaining as that, that and of course, the racing is SICK!

[@10phone2]

Talk about a great event. Last year we lived across the street from the Al Weeks beach park in Ormond Beach and got to sit on the porch watching all the cars drive through town on the A1A. Kudos to Bailey for making this happen

[@-joe-davidson]

That Gremlin was cool... I used to race a 1978 Gremlin X with a Ford 5.0 H.O. swap, T5 transmission in the 90's. It was naturally aspirated and never ran faster than 11's but it was a lot of fun. Those Gremlins have a lot of room for wide tires without having to trim.

[@pdwmadness]

I cannot wait to see you joining the cheap car, I know you'll fall in love with racing even more

[@montyperkins3369]

Sorry to see that Tom thanks for everything you do off the track to I drive over the road for a living this time of the year is my favorite keep up the great content it makes it feel like we’re apart of the event

[@genemounceSr]

That teal stick shift foxbody/cobra is fkn GNARLYYYYYYYYY ! ! My favorite so far.

[@caseymoir]

I agree, it has that factory strange rear spoiler which helps me notice his car. The footage of it on the highway was looking good too!

[@JohnPressermustangs]

K and w block seal comes in the exact bottle that the crc head gasket stuff comes in. I’m guessing it’s the same stuff, relabeled, but it does work. Plus it doesn’t clog your radiator. I’ve had a bottle of that stuff for a couple years now and have used it in two cars that has worked.

Wish I had a car to join the fun. I know there’s a bunch of $10k to $20k cars out there that run for sale but my mechanical skills are about 3.5 out of 10. It just looks like so much fun. It really does. It looks like something that I would absolutely love to do and enjoy doing and I know it’s a lot of work and I know taking a vacation is supposed to be relaxing but to me that looks relaxing in a odd type of way. It’s not like I can’t take the time off because my wife and I own the business and I also drive Lyft during our slow winter months because if I didn’t drive Lyft during the winter, one of us would probably be in prison for illing the other plus I can’t just sit around all day until we work during the evening.
