Episode 304 is the very beginning of a multi-part adventure that was filmed just this week. It's an epic tale about Joe Cole and I driving Blasphemi all over Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio while racing at three different 1/4 mile dragstrips. We also visited incredible custom shops like ‪@TinSoldierRacecars‬ while battle breaddowns, malfunctions and rainstorms. It was an incredible one-in-a-lifetime trip that we know you'll enjoy. This video covers the registration day and the first day of racing and road tripping during ‪@SummitRacing‬‪@SummitRacingMidwestDrags‬ .
Next Sunday we'll have even more content for you as we continue on our adventure. If you love this kinda content let us know in the comments and please like, subscribe and share this channel with your friends. By far, the best way to support our efforts here at Finnegan's Garage is to visit the website and pick out some merchandise. Every dollar spent on apparel goes right back into fixing and modifying the cars used in these videos.

Drag and Drive like this is my favorite. I think it really separates the "street cars" from the real streetable bad ass cars. It's impressive to me to see a 1,000+ hp vehicle not only drive down the road but pull its own support trailer with it.

@FinnegansGarage Ай бұрын

if i was confident that it wasn't gonna rain and that I could find race fuel at every track then i wouldnt even bring the trailer. there's enough room in the trunk for all of the tools and our clothes. its the spare wheels and tires and fuel that necessitate the trailer.

1200hp, full weight 4th gen, stock suspension, bolt on bars from Midwest Chassis, and looking to run on a radial. What would you recommend for shocks, or would you put the car on a slick? It's capable of 1400hp, but I don't plan on leaning on it hard, as I'll legit be daily driving the car, and hell yea, I'll make race week too, have it cleaned up and back to daily mode! Thanks for the advice!

I gotta say this because maybe others are out there suffering too. Depression sucks. Ive been down for awhile especially since my health started failing. At 55 i feel like i should still be doing stuff like this, a drag and drive, but when you physically can't do what you used to do it really wears on you. Ive been stuck in this funk before i actually went on disability in 2019 when health began going downhilll. I can sit here and watch y'alls vids all day long but can't even barely mow my own grass. Looking for a way out of this but no ideas yet. Please keep putting content out there like Mike does every Sunday so hopefully someday ill wake up and all this will be behind me. If you are a person suffering similar depression i honestly and truly wish you the best. Hey Mike, i believe the rear suspension is bound up. The initial hook then blowing the tires off tells me the chassis is not following thru. If it did follow thru even if not right i believe it would act accordingly. Maybe jack it up, unhook the shocks and cycle the rear up and down with a jack and just eyeball it. Might just be a bound up anti roll bar setting.

@mattsiev1 Ай бұрын

So close. Your compression is good soft but the rebound needs to be stiff. You're all spring right now after adjusting both settings soft. I hope you get it figured out. That's why 90/10 shocks are the way they are. You're trying to replicate that with the double adjustables.

@danmyers9372 Ай бұрын

That would explain the rear bouncing after the initial hit. The other possibility is that something is binding.
