Advertise on podcast: THAT'S COOL... DRINK!!!

This dude showed up at a rocky mountain race week with a blower mounted to the chassis of his Fox Mustang complete with a 3rd pedal and even though he struggled that week, the hook was set and he was going to be back every year with something cool. The mustang eventually ended up with a turbo but kept the stick, and for a while he was duking it out for the quickest stock TKX car. He's got a twin turbo automatic car he brought out recently that is a menace to drag and drive and Brooks is one of the good ones. Once he gets it figured out, yall are in TROUBLE! he also runs BMF automation, the guy behind the reaction time carts at RMRW's, and BMF ammo, for your freedom seeds!

Scott is an OG drag week dude, from a fox body mustang with a grand national v6 in it (that his wife still drives) to his 3rd gen jet, a 427 LS with a huge turbo on it that is aptly named because it sounds like a jet when it's spooling up. We met in 2014, and we've been cool since. We reconnected at sickweek when Klepinger and his family were slinging hot dogs, and I was eating them with a quickness! Scott is such a cool dude and his cars are awesome. Come check it out!

Known as the Mayor, because he's from a town of like a dozen, Andrew has been in drag and drive for a while now. Starting with a big boat impala with a typical turbo 5.3, he made a name for himself in the 10.0 index class with the 10.0 ET limited impala. He got serious and got into a new edge mustang capable of printing slips with 7 in the front, and has since competed with that at a number of drag and drives. He now is, among working his "normal" job, doing tuning and engine machining now out of his garage. dough-pita is a g, this one was fun.

After the dancing and tiptoeing finish to shearing his lug studs on RaceWeek 2024, he heroically fixed it under the tower and went on to win the BMF shootout with his rowdy radial car on 235's. He was freighttraining folks with a turbo LS chevy colorado. Fast forward to MegaWeek (after this episode was filmed) and Josh pulled a rabbit out of a hat and tuned my Cadillac which was somehow wounded. He fiddled through HP tuners and made it not only rev but make some solid power after some drama with engines in that junk. Anyway, Josh is the dude. Happy to have had him on and happy to call him a friend now.

Heiling from the great white north, the Brandon's have been all over and done all sorts of things with cars in the past, to include their now 7 second legal/capable GT-R. The now drag and drive ride has done road rally work as well as some transcontinental speed work in the past, but has settled in nicely as a drag and drive contender. On a personal note, I love these two, and this was super fun to sit down and get to learn more about them! Check it out!

Eric is one of the Texas racers, and Stevie and I were lucky enough to be able to meet with him and his wife Crystal through the years, and he's also been a good sport about me making fun of his Toyota's. A dude that started with a turbo 2JZ powered IS300, he's been back in his Lexus GS-F as well, which is Toyota's version of the coyote, basically, a 5.0 naturally aspirated V8 that runs well in the 13's on street tires. This dude also helped get ol Corn Dog Tom's mustang in shape before he made it over for MegaWeek from the UK, so you know he's cool. He's also building Crystal a 68-72 pickup with a gen 6 BBC! Cool stuff. Check it check it check it out!

Builder and driver of the "nightmare" blown alcohol drag and drive Mustang, Royce is a staple in drag and drives now. We talk about drag and driving a roots blown monster in a sea of turbo LS stuff, what he's got coming next, and even a sneak peek of his wife Shaylese's new Camaro, which he's since campaigned at Big Sky Raceweek! Check it out! It's going to be LOUD!

Nick is my best buddy's nephew, and I got him into drag and drive a few years back, where he met Phil. Nick has a CTS-V coupe and Phil a ZR1 corvette, which are powered by nearly the same engine, so the friendly rivalry was on instantly. This was a fun one watching a couple of friends chop it up and party with me on the cast. Check it out!

I can't believe I've done 50 of these. I wanted to make this one special and include Jason, who is the dude I'm talking to and having a beer with at Sick Week a few years ago, and when I decided to start doing something like this to highlight the stories of people far and wide. Jason is a hoot though. He's got the chicken coupe and of course Angel the amazing wonder dog! This dude has fed me, offered me a bed, and even the shirt off his back. We have a very cool story about a fellow vet that was (and still is) struggling. We take time when we're together to call him and do our best to lift him up when he's down, and it means a lot to that guy, and to both of us as well. Jason is just a solid, down to earth, amazing dude. And I'm proud to be his friend.

Raj is KNOWN for huge ass burnouts in his Olds powered 442, but who knew he had like 6 of these things?!??! He's a guy I had the pleasure of having a few parking lot beers with and we had some good conversations. This dude is a pilot from the Yukon Territory up in Canada, like on the Alcan highway kind of stuff. He's a nitrous fiend, and of course that makes him cool in my book, but what got him his start in Oldsmobiles? What gets in this dude's head as he heads south for just a ton of racing? And why does he just help with track prep and lick random fluids off of the racetrack? Tune in to find out!

Steve is a gangster with a couple of badass rides, but who knew he got his start in VW's and Honda's? I do now! A NYC based guy, he's got a 6th gen camaro with twins that runs well in the 8's, but it's tech limited to 10.0, where he typically runs it on RMRW. He purpose built a Grand National to come terrorize the 8.50 field though, and he's done just that, and got himself a big ol win at the shootout of 2024's FAF from Raceweek??? (I can't remember, these all start melding together at some point!!!). But Steve rules, and I'm happy to call him a friend, and this one was fun as heck.

Alan is hilarious and also wheels one of the baddest/heaviest street cars in the land. His 1970 Gulf Green Monte Carlo runs in the 6's and weighs 4000 lbs!!!!! SMX powered, he drag and drives this thing like it owes him money, and we'll talk about what got him his start with the Monte and what it's like having one of the baddest street cars in the land!

Dane is a super good dude that does a kickass youtube channel called "burndown." You'll find it when you find the one with the rooster holding a lollipop. He's a down-home mechanic on his show that builds cool stuff for low money and shows you how to do it too! He's the driver of the maliboom, that unfortunately had a water pump let go and get water under the tires at Thunder Valley Raceway in Oklahoma City, OK on a raceweek and stuff the nose into the wall at about 800 feet. Fortunately the car did it's job and Dane was in the tower and doing an interview with me just minutes after the crash, and he intends to rebuild the car to have it back for MegaWeek! He's also got a kickass turbo LS winnebago that he does burnouts with and overall has a blast building cool stuff for you to watch! He's also partnered with Warr Performance to help them with their social media presence and with some cool product development as well. This one was fun and I think you'll like it too!

I met Danny a long while ago in the Colorado drag racing scene. He's been a staple out there for as long as I can remember. Fast forward a few years and Danny married WAY up and in the process got himself a cool as a cucumber step-kid, Makayla. She grew from a shy kid to an absolute force to be reckoned with at any Rocky Mountain Race Week event, and even earned herself a Wally trophy at Pueblo Motorsports Park. This one is awesome and super family oriented. If you've been trying to get your kid into some racing, check this one out and see how Maykayla was immediately hooked, and how cool it is for Danny to watch her grow into her own woman, and racer, right before his eyes.

Owner of the self proclaimed "slowest twin turbo big block fox body on the planet", Gary is an OG drag weeker and racer out of the Kansas/Missouri area. He's also cohost of the Heads up racing podcast. We had a blast talking about hanging with superstars on our shows, and blasting around his ride with his friends. Gary was a blast, and this was a super fun show.
