Strange how simply stumbling on your channel years ago just to see how far things have come since our days of drag racing back in the 80's had come, to watching every Steve-Tech video, to getting hooked on Dewey's adorable personality, to watching the wagon go through the evolution and buying some merchandise to help lessen the pain on repairing the wagon, to where it is today. It's been both entertaining and educational so thanks for sharing so much with so many; even those of us that don't plan on racing again, Steve. Cheers!

You are 100% right about the bias ply cars being the fastest. What I see as the problem these days, is that those who put on the events, cater to the radial cars and it's all radial prep. Just look at the struggles Lutz had during Sick Week 2024. There should be more classes, even smaller tire stuff, that demands bias ply tires.

*INCLUSION, thank you!* I haven't heard that word used in the moving picture show industry in decades; that feeling used to be the holy grail of production - from the Producer, Writer, and Director all the way through the Engineers, post production team of Editor(s), and ideally into marketing. Hopefully they/it will cycle back to that art instead of the cheap and easy trauma-drama (drauma?) that it's devolved into. Reminded me of my stint in it some 35-40 years ago at the cusp of crossing into all-things 100% digital. *Interest, Involve, Conclude* (ish)

Well brother after all the R&D youve done. You really haven't had to many pray to god moments .. Not a single rod still connected to the crank is priceless. I was going to recommend you call the pastor and ask him to say a few prayers for the ol grocery getter. 😅😅😅😅 Because shes had a few bad days that looked like Satan might of had his fingers involved. 😅😅😅😅🙏🙏🙄 But it seems your back on track now. You have the ol sled almost airborne now at 211 mph. Fastest wagon ive ever seen. Looks awesome Steve. Like the nice modification to the rear quarter panels to access those monster wheels. Looks like its no more tire shake. 💪💪👍👍 Great work. Great video. Can't wait to see the hydroplnes. Thats our sport. Used to be anyway. Costs to much to put on a race in Florida anymore. No one wants to make the drive. Used to set records here in stuart FL in the 70s . Packed crowds. Memories anymore!!
