    There's never an "old" video 📸 when we can learn so much about a particular car class and a team winning a Wally! Naturally aspirated Mountain 🏔️ Motors, all the drive line work that goes into such an effort and a Team that let you record this episode makes more subs! Learned a lot, Thanks 🎙️☝️🏁 🇺🇸

    We finally got a reopen date for Ohio, at least for most entertainment. It's too late for Summit Motorsports Park though. They cancelled the rest of 2020.

      Dude, it has felt so good to be back at the track the past three weeks. Got nostalgia drags in, stock car racing in NC, and PDRA. I'm shooting out to Texas now for the ADRL.
      Yes sir! It will be GOOD and Lord willing I'll be there.

      @MondayMorningRacer  Před 2 lety

      Well, they were excited about winning period. Johnny had a great year going on and winning the championship in PDRA with an Indy win to boot in 1/4 mile trim. One thing to consider is the PDRA doesn't hit with a large entry fee and per person crew tag. If you think the 5,000 was sad, that year in NHRA they were paying $1,100 to enter and the winner only earned $3,000 plus a little Wally (this was a Covid year to note).

    I love Prostock & Promodified BUT I can't get into 1/8th mile racing...SMH....I would jump on a plane in a heartbeat to go watch a PDRA event if it was 1/4mile but I tried watching ADRL twice & it was too depressing watching racecars throw the chutes at HALFTRACK on a full 1/4mile facility....Great video MMR .....cant wait to see these Mountain motor Prostocks run 1/4mile at a NHRA NATIONAL event.

    • @MondayMorningRacer
      @MondayMorningRacer  Před 4 lety

      I can understand those sentiments but I also am very greatful for the PDRA. Let's take this race for example, it's at Galot Motorsports Park which is an A+ facility. Here's the problem, it's not a 1/4 mile facility, period. It just doesn't have the runoff for these cars. So, the PDRA allows professional drag racing under such circumstances. Plus, it's a cost cutting measure to the teams. They hurt less parts. One other factor that I do like as well is that it puts the race in the drivers hands. You've got to cut a light. You've got to wheel in the groove. You don't have top end room to come around.

      @@MondayMorningRacer I understand it's part of your job , I get that BUT I'm just speaking in terms from a spectators view....its just over too quick, I mean to quote a local racer from my hometown of Virginia he said " Man my motor just starts to GROWL at the 1/8th mile ".....lol...
      I understand junior dragsters running 660ft & I get the whole deal with less carnage in the 1/8th BUT I just wish they would at least run 1/4mile when at 1/4mile facilities & only run 1/8th mile at 1/8th mile facilities like GALOT.Thanks for your coverage.

    Looks like KAASE heads on the car. Chevy never made a hemi head. Oh, you did not hear the story? Since JK"s motors were dominating pro stock. The sanctioning body told JK if he didn't show the bowtie boys how to make the hemi heads. Anyone who used a Kaase engine would have to carry more weight, be penalized for use of his engines. So rather than loose that part of his business he acquiesced and passed on his hemi head design. I heard JK tell the story, all to true. So those bowtie guys are all running Ford heads.

      Your comment is far more stupid in light of the context being about the Pluchinos and Extreme Pro Stock in the PDRA.
