The Fastest Drag Car at Midwest Drag Week? 700 Miles of Street Driving And Racing Comes Down To This

[@BBROPHOTO]

Tom, this channel has quickly become one of my favourites over the last week or so! I really like watching you and Steve work together on these things - It’s really interesting :) Thanks for all the content, it’s great.

[@genemounceSr]

I enjoyed the entire week Mr. Bailey. Appreciate it much.

[@quickdeuce]

@2:24 seeing Tom laughing is classic! I remember watching other KZbinrs trying to do an interview with Tom previous years, before Tom had his own YT channel and he seldom smiled OR had much to say. Tom has found his pace now and that's fun to watch. He and Steve have all the same challenges as do the other MDW competitors but he can laugh and that's awesome! Thanks Tom Bailey for starting your own channel, we get the chance to see he's NOT ALL BUSINESS and can HAVE FUN TOO. Also, Thanks to Derek for driving the Ice Cream truck in support of the TB Race car, he's tha beez knee!

[@sickthemag]

Steve says I'm cool.

[@jamieknight9636]

Well said at the end there Tom, Ive done our drag week here in Victoria Australia and agree with everything you said

[@matthewburns5053]

Tom great video, my favorite thing about drag week is how well all the competitors get along and help each other out. America needs more of this.

[@WayneRigley]

Thanks, Tom, been watching all week! hats off to your camera guy for getting in your face in good and bad times, lets us feel your frustration and pain along the way. Makes us Internet people feel part of your team ! so make sure you let him know he was also a huge part in your drag week! thanks again! save that hurt hole ring for me, when us Canadians finally are able to cross into the USA again I want my wife and me to come visit your shop !

[@Thesongstaysthesame]

What does it sound like again Steve!? 🤣🤣 Love the week long coverage guys!!

Tom ... Thanks for the awesome video coverage this week !!!

[@sickthemag]

Our pleasure!

Steve is a good addition to these videos. Hopefully he’s back for drag week

[@MrYankees06]

Hes there always. He's the tuner and manages the engine. After all those are his built engines.

Awesome job this week guys.. You can tell Tom is tired.. Steve's positivity and knowledge! Derick! Nice work on the hotdogs! Lol. Along the hole time helping out in the shadows. We see you. Can't wait till next time. Thanks guys

[@mynameisrick7]

Thank you for taking us along for the journey

[@sickthemag]

Thanks for watching!

[@brianspalding7693]

Love how you want to share the sport with everyone. Offering your car to others who need to qualify takes a real friend. Its just a car, you can build more. Friends are forever. You'll get him next time :)

[@rickwelch973]

Thanks boys for daily uploads 🤘🏻 was awesome riding along with you all 🇦🇺🇺🇸

[@LivingOnCash]

Been watching Cleetus and Dereck and now Tom. Tom's speech at the end has got me thinking I need to run a car in this now matter how fast it runs. Going to shoot for Rocky Mountain in September.

Just do it - starting is the most important thing!

[@BoltOffEscape]

Your speech at the end summed it all up. How fast you go doesn’t matter as long as you finish happily. That applies to many things in life.... but for cars, at least, that’s what most of us need to hear

[@Nanaki1422]

Great video and coverage of everything Tom. It's nice seeing behind the curtain of the trials and issues even you run into in the big cars. Let's us all know you're human too.

Tom, you help make this series what it is, you keep it exciting and you love what you do. It's been a blast watching you and all the racers over the past few days. Congrats to you and everyone involved that makes these events possible.

[@jeffburdess2237]

Will you guys be doing a video on the freshen up of the motor after? Curious about that possible hurt ring.. or whatever is causing the blow by.

[@njovwevnjweV]

I would be interested in seeing that as well!

[@boostedrhs2242]

I would like to see that as well, it might be a good idea to go over to Steve's channel and give him some encouragement.

[@danmyers9372]

Steve will probably do a video on his channel.

[@mgtowrules1649]

That speech at the end was Awesome. Great bunch of Guys!

Fantastic video guys!! Loved every moment of it.

Being so competitive but genuinely congratulating the guy that only just beat you .. Major respect ... Superb vids :-)

[@MrYAMAHA32177]

What a great competitor Tom. Everyone that competed was a winner, great Job guys.

[@michaelmcswain3747]

Thanks for bringing the content. This makes me want to build a car just to run drag week. But on a serious note, we appreciate you and the hard work put in on the content 🤘👍

hell yeah tom.. also, huge thank you for letting Derek drive the ice cream truck... nice to see alex t coming out to show support

[@mattwillard4973]

Oooof....thinking of each time you let off just a little! Great competition guys...Derek was quite the help and I loved seeing him on your team also, and was cool to see you trying to help Alex. I guess she has to go to plan B? Good to see you all working together, that is what brings in the younger crowd to take your places someday.

[@patrickbrewer5750]

Been following you since you let Cletus drive that gorgeous car. Love the content and am forever a subscriber.

[@edhilton]

Thanks for posting, it's nice to get each racer's perspective and maybe get at least a small hint of the effort it takes, it can seem real easy from the outside sometimes. Looking forward to RMRW and Sickness.

Fascinated by this drag-n-drive format. And love the various teams coverage and interaction. Wish there was better overall coverage... Always seems to be lacking IMO. Electrical gremlin- EGT sensor short and pull down Vref? Wanna see that #4 piston and ring pack. Will be watching for certain. Thanks everyone!

[@mbliss01]

And watching Steve and Kevin's detailed input this week really opened my eyes as to whats new in this world. Love it. (Wish to be a tuner!)

Tell you what, You Tom along with Steve make the prefect team for a drag week. The INDY Trac was crap for sure. we all know 1.0 can pull a 6 sec av anyday if the trac is as it should be

[@danmyers9372]

Wasn’t Indy’s fault. Theres only so much you can do when it rains that much.

And the thing is everyone was there in the same conditions.

[@NeverEnoughPyro40]

As I was watching your video I heard you say that on your second pass you didn’t let up, And then you stated that you threw the shoots early so they would open at the finish but you didn’t let up! I have watched the video quite a few times, It looks like you let up at the exact moment that you pulled the shoots! I have not finished watching the video so I’m curious to see if you review that pass here! Good luck with the rest of the race! Even though I know it’s already over! 👍

[@a.k.a.A.E.1]

a silly question ! is it normal that the automatic transmission shifter wobbles so? is it loose? can also be seen when Cleetus drove with us!

[@ldnwholesale8552]

With this You Tube deal Tom is looking far less stressed. The electrical gremlins were a major problem. Over 4 days I suspect he would have won. But congrats to all, these events have got me interested and I have not drag raced since the 70s. Road and dirt racer.
