Donuts, Drag Racing and Beer!!!

- Episode 167 of Mike Finnegan's Garage is all about my trip to Tucson Dragway for the Duct Tape Drags, which is a new event put on by the track and David Freiburger. It's a great event for anyone who wants to have a good time without spending a ton of cash to go drag racing, camping, and doing burnouts. So much good stuff happened while I was there; I met fans, watched the slowest and most competitive drag racing ever, drank some beer and even got to sign off on a new driver's official NHRA Sportsman driver license application. Then I jumped on a plan and headed to Washington to film a new episode of Roadkill. Hope you enjoy the video! Want to help support the channel? Do me a favor and buy some merch at www.fsmgarage.com
Thanks!

The story behind the drag car coming back from Germany and you signing his license stuff was awesome.
If that guys brother gets his license too, Finn should try and sign off on him as well should they meet up. Complete the set. :P
That's the stuff dreams are made of congrats
And this is why Finnegan is a true badass and all around great guy and car guy!!!!
That was some of the coolest ish I've ever seen.
Agree 100%
I walked up to you right after you signed his paperwork and asked you if you just purchased something that was going to piss your wife off. You had the happiest look on your face and this glazed look in your eyes and explained it was for his license. You were definitely having a great time!
Thanks 👍😊 so much for the comment I'm so proud of these boys!
Hanging out to sign off on his comp license..you have restored my faith in humanity.
Great story on the drag car...you could tell that meant alot to that father to have the car back and see his boys run it. Your a helluva guy finnegan. Thats why we all watch your channel thanks for all you do
The look on Newberns face when you said splitting up looked like a sad little girl. Lol. We love Newbern.
Dude, what a great pro racer. Doesn't think too highly of himself to make some incredible memories with his fans! I wish more builders did that. Your dad would be very proud Finnegan!
Good to see Elana! I miss seeing her in some of the Roadkill stuff from time to time.
That father knows how lucky he is to have sons that care about him.
Alot of us would give anything to have that kind of love for another human being.
🇺🇸👍🏼
Mike, you and all the FSM and RK folks do a great job providing awesome content. You all seem like solid down-to-earth people. Props to all the significant others that support all your wild antics!
19:08 - the 'thunk' when the door closes telling us how much Steel there is in that body, then the starter motor fighting against the compression,... and that noise when it starts, that's what a big block is supposed to sound like.
And having a great story, for a racing family, this is what real drag racing is all about.
The only thing not steel is the hood! ;)
That Malibu was incredible!!
Thank you soo much Mike! We will definitely be back next year with the chevelle again and I will bring my own 67 that suits the duct tape drags a little better as well ☺️ I just uploaded the Christmas unveiling video on my CZcams channel if you guys want to see our dad cry some more 🥲
Your dad had me crying too. I am pumped for you!!!!
I am the proudest dad ever! I cry every time I see this dream come true you boys are amazing for your efforts in everything you do! Love you dad...
The car is beautiful and the story is awesome! And getting Finnegan to sign that licence was a cool move!
Pin this Finn ☝ 🙏
czcams.com/video/-mhFTwVY6sA/video.html - great video guys
Ah, the Jan Zimmerman Chevelle being there makes sense now! Loved seeing that car race at Santa Pod
That’s awesome!
That 9.50 index car was BADASS!!! Love the paint and livery on it. Love the story. So badass.
Thanks hopefully getting into the low 9s next time !
The Twins story is awesome, what a great legacy car and proud father.
Class act signing off that guy's license. Made his year!
Thanks for signing my kids Blasphemi blanket made the day. Even cooler to be in the YT episode. !
Kendall's story with his dads German dragster, is Fing awesome!
Thanks for doing what you do mike. That was good of you to sign off on that young man’s license!
Incredible back story on car and kid. Dad was so proud. Total honor for them to have you sign and for you to have them search you out for your approval. Dude,I almost teared up.
Always cool to see a driver get his competition license! Awesome of you sign off on it Mike!!!
That was a beautiful 1967 Chevy Chevelle !!! I sure miss mine. Thank you Mike for all of your great vids.
Great video!
Nice to see you take time out of your night to help the kid with his license! Shows again what kind of guy you are..👍
Keep up the great work/videos. 🇨🇦🏁
So cool to be able to sign off on his NHRA License! Great storey on that car! My second car was a 1966 Chevelle with a 327.
Love that you signed his paperwork!
Reminds me of Tom Bailey at Drag Week this year, not participating but just relaxing, enjoying the down time, and meeting some people.
I'm from the area in germany and totally amazed to see those decals. First thought I was going nuts.
I scrutinized that car several times here in The Netherlands... Awesome to see this....
Still crazy to us it’s been all over racing in so many places!
Man the dad with the twin boys was the story's I live for in hot rodding
Great content helping the young bloke out with his licence. You truly are a champion Mike.☝️🤘👏🤜🤛👍🤙💯👋👌
What a great story on that Chevelle! That car is sick!
I just love seeing this kind of content! It takes me back to the early 00's at Atco raceway. We had something called high school night where you could run whatever you had as long as you paid the track fee. If you didn't have a helmet you could rent one. Good times, the best times.
I love that Finnegan has reading glasses! Makes me feel young again. I'll be there next year with the Buick Off-Roadmaster!!!
That little pice of history was badass looked fun out there great video
Best youtube story ever, went to Germany raced and made it back in one piece!!! And now the og builder has it back. Epic!!!!
Beautiful Chevelle, and awesome story!
Oh that yellow Mach 1 - great car!
I’m the guy with the wheel hoping Willy’s. It will be louder next year don’t worry
Sweet ride.Looks like it'd be a blast to ride in.Good luck.
Dude, just a great feel good vid. Cheers Finn.
That was freakin awesome signing off on that license. Great car that has stood the test of time. Cool family too!👌🏻
That story with the dad and his two boys was awesome!
Awesome video !!!!
It's crazy to think that a car you built could be sold off and makes it's way to another continent and find it's way home again.
Still unbelievable for us 👍🏼
Mike that is so awesome you are a real good guy!!
That is one proud papa right there ! Heck of a cool story, and beginning of another with the twins. 👍
Dude, that Zimmerman car deal was great 👍🏻 Wonderful story! Glad you did what you did, we need more people like this in America. Help thy neighbor!
so glad to see this video. what an amazing story with the father and twins.
Didn't get to see duct tape drags! This was a treat. Appreciate it
Dude, the car from germany coming back for christmas! Hell yeah.
Awesome that you signed off on his license, I bet he will never forget that act of kindness Finn!
That was one happy dad right there! Great story with the Finnigans sig on his license makes it an even better story!!
That was awesome of you to sign off on that young man's License. Not many people like you left anymore who would take the time to do that.
Enjoyed the story at the end. Awesome.
Derrick at Vice Grip Garage straight 6 power! 12:10
That Malibu and the story behind it, amazing and you signing off on his license, so damn cool!
Excellent! Way cool, especially the '66 Chevelle story! Love your vids Finnegan.
That’s awesome, looks like a great time!!! And great story with the car, father and son!!
One of the best oem steering wheels ever...Trans Am!
The sound of a turbo always puts a smile on my face. 11:20. Also I feel that my rattlebomb LS swapped 95 Impreza would fit in nicely hear.
You da man Finnegan! You make me keep my faith in humanity!
I like the nitrous sticker on the fender. Instead of NoS it says No. awesome
My husband and I stopped and helped you guys a while back when you were broke down.
Lol
@@gsppuffer we did t know they were famous! Did t start watching there shows till after when we seen them on different shows . no longer working together. We now have have the app and the channel on our hulu Tv. Fantastic shows. Dulchich's
And freiberger make a good team. We need something signed by them badly for the shack !!
I would love to see more content like this
Thats our car 😀 unbelievable!!!
I am very happy about that story the car place is on the road
everything is till now original painting chassis only new German engine 😀
Jan Zimmermann from Oastfrisia team made everything with his friend Jens and his wife said: don,t change the painting of the car
The story of this DragRacer is very long and interesting.......
Big greeting from Garmny.....so man I'm so ... happy
The paint job will always be with this car. I painted it years and years ago very unique love it.... That's how Ken Kyle found it on tube!!!
Way cool story on the Chevelle and father son(s) team. AAA+++
Duct Tape Drags was so much fun! Hope Freiburger keeps it going!
The gangster style beedlock wheels💯🇺🇸🔥✌✌
Very cool to see a story like that
I was there on Saturday, good times. I under estimated how many cars and people would attend, no same day racing entry. Did get to see the Chevelle and Mr Frieburger at the wheel of his 32 in the pits. Many way kool hot rods and folks. Cheers !
What an awesome story and what an honor Finnegan! Badass car too
What a Honor for you. What a beautiful Chevelle.
I appreciate that extra work you bunch of people put in so much, thanks a lot for the bts coverage :)
ALL THE FEELS FOR A PROUD PAPA! GOOD BOYS COME FROM GOD FATHERS!
That was awesome that you signed that young mans paperwork for his license.
Finn, love the channel and content. Appreciate you and Newbern.
I know the Chevelle I raced with it on the same events
The engine builder is Thomas Engelage from Bremen . The car in Germany was owned Jens koennecke . The same guy bought a 1966 nova from me before he bought this car . What a cool feat to see this car back in the states ….
That 65 chevy was badass, great history too
Would love one day to make it out to one of these and meet and chat with ya Finnegan. Seems like it would be a real fun time.
Keep up the great work and enjoying "the best at work ever"
Stoked to get to see some of the event. Cheers, from Australia. I hope you're allowed to give us more.
What an awesome story and what an honor. Badassed car too
I gotta say Mike, From an Aussie perspective?
You mate, are a helluva nice Bloke.
Loved seeing the Vice Grip Garage burnout. I just watched his video about the drags last night!
Mike you rock! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace
Pretty cool you signed his license paperwork! Best autograph ever
I am glad to see "Challengeher" is there. Thanks for including her, she kind of gets overlooked.
You just made a fan. 30 years from now, that young man will be telling of the day that Mike Finnegan signed his license!
Looks like an amazing event, hopefully I can make it next year, Cummins just wasn't ready this year but hopefully she will be ready with compounds and radials next year!
Props to the guy running the TRX-4
That looks like a lot of fun. Spent three weeks in the campground in November last year. Going to have to see what they have going on this year. Have to talk my friend that lives in Green Valley into buy a junker from one of the wrecking yards and building a burnout car on the cheap. 🤣🤣
being a proud father myself, seeing that dad about cry for his son had me crying.
Such a cool memory singing his license
Love this man.. you were so nice to those people!
Brother!!! Is that not every father dream?!?! There kids driving and racing there long lost hot rod!!! 🤩 super special moment for you and the family!!!
Thanks 👍.. I'll be racing a 1980 Corvette 406 sb at route 66 drag's next weekend.
Brother! I just got my first “unit” at nearly 40. 600hp bmw 550i GT. Still building on my 89 k1500 for anything and everything kinda rig. Def wish I could race more often in any class but life jams things up usually.
What a great story and what wonderful sons to find that car and get it back all the way from GERMANY if you didn't hear the story in person like I just did no one would ever believe it I am so speechless right know all I can say is WOW
WOW! Man, I saw this car running on a drag event here in Germany some years ago!
Regards from the cologne area!
thats a badass story like hearing stuff like that...
Is that a Plymouth Fury!?! Hell yeah!
Thanks Mike this is all I get to see of Roadkill now #DamnyouMotortrend
Don't be such a cheap ass. 4.99 is worth it
That was cool that you signed his license..
What a cool episode man! Choking me up there at the end bruh... */w\METAL/w\*
Thanks 👍😊 so much
Awsome job helping that family out and getting that young man his license and hopefully will sometime somewhere do the same for his twin brother
