This is going to be a fun class to watch! Go FORD!!!

Them coyotes loves to perform up high

Very cool Evan. I love all the younger generation Ford guys who grew up watching their parents and grandparents running them. Tasca and Holbrook are iconic names in the sport and the fact these guys are keeping Ford relevant warms this old man's heart. Thanks. This was a great video and I wish Chris all the best in his endeavors. "It only takes one Ford to put a hundred Chevys back on the trailer."-Bob Glidden

Coyote has been king for boost. It’s great to see it shining like usual.

if you raced Fords in Michigan you know the Holbrook and the Detrick families. super cool that he has the Instant Action Cobra Jet on the rear quarters paying homage to his Dad the Legendary Carl Holbrook. Chris was also a IHRA prostock champion👍 gotta love them Liberty Equalizer 5 spds, made in Michigan baby!!!

Always on the side of the "BLUE OVAL"...Best of luck to Chris Holbrook's Family/Crew continued success in the class. Thanks Evan for the work that you do bringing the Blue Oval Fans these great videos with detailed information.

Varsity ford to the front!!

The X-Class S650 Mustang was mentioned when Jim Farley and his performance team announced the Holly Factory X-Class manual transmission Mustang Cobra Jet replacement during the introduction of the new S650 Mustangs at the International Auto Show. Great seeing Chris Holbrook fielding the first X-Class S650 Mustang and thanks to REVan Evans for showing this high revving 200 mph Stang

Great to see ford helping grass roots racers, it takes a lot of other manufactures also

Elephant Ears and Base Plate is the same technology we used 43 years ago at Atco. Goodness Gracious those Coyotes love high revs. I would love to see the bearings after the tear down and do a tensile strength on the main studs and head bolts. Technology except for existing premises have really changed. Great Video Evan Good Hunting Chris Thank You 🙏

That car is so freakin awesome!!! Love the transmission setup!!!

What a cool class. Hope it takes off.

I've had to re adjust my project budget because of the 5.2 But i feel it's totally gonna be worth it Such a killer ride Thanks Evan!!!

I gave up on Pro Stock several decades ago when they essentially became Funny Cars with NA engines. Factory X is a move in the right direction. I only wish the rules dictated that the teams started with a body-in-white. It's essential that the ultimate doorslammer class have as stock a body as possible (I realize that BOP is a difficult target).

Love the fords going fast.

Another Gentleman racer,awesome how good the modern cars are and how they are like the classics too.

As usual, awesome interview Evan. So happy to see guys like you and Chris carrying on the Ford racing tradition and especially with Chris' and his family ties to his dad Carl. I was trying to decide who Chris reminds me of and it finally came to me - probably one of my favorite comedians of all time, the late, great John Candy.

Been a fan of Chris Holbrook in Stock, Super Stock and now in this class for years. Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor, MI is the best when it comes to supporting Sportsman NHRA Racing.

Factory X and Showdown are great classes and im glad prostock has replacements

When Factory Stock started out, the Fords ruled until the NHRA changed the rules to help the Chevies and the Dodges. Now, in FX, it seems to be the same story of mostly Chevies winning. But I might be wrong and they are winning because there are Pro Stock teams in FX with more assets than the smaller Ford teams.

Great class racing. Small cube Fords still taking 'em to school. Revan and Chris are class acts👍

Great one Evan. Chris is such a friendly guy. and so freaking knowledgeable .

He said 11 thousand rpm's and didn't even bat an eye😲 Hold on to your rod bearings!😂 ⛽️🔥🛞🌬🇺🇸💪👍

Great video Chris this is real racing motor combinations and performance not that garbage on TV now keep the great videos coming😊

I am envious of the genious of Mr Holbrook. And this smart dude runs Ford

Really Nice Rig !!!!

Great interview EV..You always ask all the right questions..big Holbrook fan since Dad’s “Instant Action” Cobra Jet days.

Nice interview. Chris is a great guy.

So anxious for this class. Prefer it over Pro Stock. Glad to see it going back to manufacturer engines!

Such a beautiful car, it's an engineering work of art. I can't imagine what it would be like to ride in something that fast. Btw I remember the article on Captain Cobra Jet, I bought the magazine and read the article. I was 19 in 1975, so.... I graduated from high school in 1974 and was taking auto mechanics at my local community college. I was going through the 289 in my '65 Mustang and changing the cam about that time lol.

I own a HRE coyote and let me tell you, Chris is absolutely wonderful to work with. He ALWAYS answers my questions. Even if it’s to tell me to stop reading so much on the internet 😂 love those guys. Love the Detricks. Rip Clyde. Would be awesome if you interviewed the legendary Jimmy Detrick at Milan sometime. Hope to see you at Woodward and maybe I’ll have my gear driven Vortech coyote with me. Thanks for the video Evan! Keep up the hard work!

Good luck 24 Chris love your car looking forward to seeing you beating up the Chevy and dodge guys and girls Ford power forever baby a real Chevy and dodge killer l love it keep on bringing it

Holy interviews! Great questions!!

But most important, what an impressive opening banner to this video! Bravo!

Not a Ford guy but Ford engineers out did themselves with the Coyote platform.. I know the legendary Holbrook name.. very cool car and I hope this class sticks around..

Awesome video! Amazing quality of engineering in that awesome Stang! Thanks Evan. Gonna check if there's a vid of you at Holbrook engines. ( I think there is.)

for me that was really informative and kept my interest through out thanks for the time and video very professionally done

What a great car Evan. You’re always bringing us the best. It was awesome seeing how he was pulling past the Camero at the top end. What’s the black lever on the tunnel, and behind the shifter? Is it a brake backup?

Beautiful car!!

I hope the factory x class takes off I love the cars

Great questions and answers!

Great looking car. Best of luck this season

Evan, awesome video. Love the in-depth Q&A, I learned a lot about the class. I of course hope you will also cover one of the Camaros. :)

Thanks again Evan. You asked all the pertanet questions. I am curious though, what engine mods are allowable. I hope the success of the cars doesn't come from the engine builders. With the sophistication of the modern factory powerplants, It would be an even playing field if modifications were minimal. Thanks again Evan, this class has a lot of potential for fan enthusiasm for all the manufacturers, like the good old days of Pro Stock.

Interesting video right up to the last second.

I'm All In! This is my new favorite drag racing Class⁉

That's so cool.

Love these videos vert informative what really goes on behind the sceens

Awesome Ford

Has NHRA handicapped this class where the Fords have little chance to win? Would like to see a chart of weight per cubic inch between makes Thanks for thee video best of luck on this beautiful ride. Ford Power 😎

Nice ford pro street man.see u got alot tech involved. Outstanding. I got 92lx with blown boss 351w block to 460 and 2 speed powerglide and launch break. And 8.8 33 spline 4 lugger thugger axles getting ready put 513.s in rear then big ass pro charger. Lol.yeeeeee haaaawww

That's one bad coyote....continue with the great work 💯

Awesome car the Coyotes loves the manual transmissions

Looking forward to this class! So happy that they’re running five speed transmissions!

Great video! Awesome car.

so when you heat up your 02 sensors the engine goes into closed loop the minute you start it? correct? thats very cool!

Great video. Super nice guy.

Very nice. What a weapon.

Chris is really cool

Fast and beautiful car. The new class seems promising, the closer to real cars, the better. I actually want to see a Mustang racing a Challenger or Camaro, keeping brand identity alive. Nice to know many people think the same.

A supercharger 2 step is beautifully unique.

Great video Evan

This class is great as the cars look like the street counterpart. Also a Ford with a Ford, etc., instead of ProStock's lumpy body and Chebbie motor (even in a Mustang).

Can I get a HELL YEAH!!!

I hope NHRA decides to let the cars race and not try and help GM like they did in ProStock and Factory Stock.

The Bow Tie Brigade will claim; "Yeah, but our Chevy cost $20,000 less than a Ford."

In other words they decide which manufacturer they want to win and then adjust the pulley size accordingly

What a RIPPER !!

Chris is the cool guy I want to hang out and shoot the breeze with , awesome car

Wins in this class will sell cars for manufacturers.

State of the art..👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼👍🏼..!!

That’s one hell of a machine thank you Evan. Thank you Chris.

Awesome! Lets hope NHRA dumps Pro Stock Oops...I mean Pro Camaro and runs this class. This is how it should be.

Let's keep in mind 10200 rpm is only 800 rpm more than Yates was getting in Nascar back in the 92...

Question? Is that a null5 speed, or is that A? Sequential or a g force, because a real manual car is a clutch plus pedal plus gear shift

Yyyyeah!! That aint cheap.

What actuates the chute?

Murica F'Yeah 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

That race was was typical LS vs Coyote... LS pulls out then Coyote drives around on the big end!!!

Why the hand brake lever?

Id like to know the crew chiefs secret to making that blower belt hang on at 10k RPMs! 🤣👏👏👏🇺🇲💪

"So Chris..., what do you do after an interview?"

Hey Evan, how come I don't see any Ford's in NHRA Pro Stock? I see them in other sanctions. Man we need the blue oval dominating Pro Stock! Thank you for any insight. Love the channel!

Thanks buddy,,very awesome stuff U RA USMC MOTOR T

What OCTANE does that version of VP have? I ran 100 octane VP unleaded in the early 1990s.

They need a 6L version all geometry being equal.

Well it looks stock but they're not using factory ECU. That's the big difference. I think you can push coyote 2000 plus no problem. Don't need no special sauce for that. Yeah I think when you said steel roof steel body I think there's a lot of lightning that happened on this because 1500 horsepower I don't think will push a factory car to those speeds. Factory weight is around 3800

I noticed I’m getting unsubscribed more often on your channel… really good content on this channel and ol school reader from muscle mustangs fast ford magazine days.

1500 HP with only 13 lbs of Boost 🤯

Holbrook.. Wonder if we are related.

What modern pro stock should have been

Chris ,, get Butch out to help . Good times.

Like supercharged superstock meets pro stock

They used to call this class Pro Stock...

So ford made the chassis???

👍🏁🏁👍

That poor whipple isn’t even getting started at 13#. Take the cuffs off nhra

Sounds looks just like prostock.

Felicitaci9nes

Just like any racing ford will dominate then they will change the rules add weight to slow them down just like the days of the 351 Cleveland bob glidden
