What really needs to happen is for Bailey, Lutz, Larson, Schroeder, Goldstone, and any other heavy hitters to attend DragWeek in the same year and settle it once and for all. I'd pay double to see that before going to any nhra event.
They would have to do this every drag week. Dont get me wrong, im not opposed to it! lol
Dude... Yes
Conversion of Red Victor 3 from street to track...
-Fill the tank with methanol
-Swap the street rear tyres for slicks
-Fit wheelie bar
That's it - all the coolant stays in, rad stays, no panel changes, cup holders stay, electric windows stay, passenger seat stays
Aint ugly step Sister faster than red Victor one tho?
@@graffzon do you mean Red Victor 3, or are you going back in time? RV3 ran 5.87 @263mph
@Norm Macdonald Show you mean "can it complete drag week?" - we'll never know, as it's never entered and almost certainly never will
@Norm Macdonald Show he could have done, if he hadn't retired. But Frosty was never interested in the whole Endurance Event thing - nobody runs their best numbers at Drag Week and Frosty always wanted to run the very best numbers which he, the car and the team were capable of. There are some plans in place to create a "UK Drag Week" type event, and it'll be interesting to see what cars attend and what numbers get run - but I'd wager it'll be a long time before anyone in the UK (or Europe) runs street legal numbers close to what RV3 achieved
@The Norm Show for sure... European street scene is wicked mate ..no matter what type of racing it is, Brits just like to go hard but! ..They have such a huuuuge variety going on compared to america but track speed scene is real fast .depending. q1
I remember reading hot rod magazine with my dad back in the day, the article was about you and I believe Larry Larson with the debate about fiberglass bodies or full chassis cars.
My dad was always said "if those guys have the balls to drive them on the street, it has a license plate, that thing is street legal.
I miss him dearly, he passed away March 14th 2014 at 52.
Gee whiz your Dad was young. Your my sons age. May Dad rest in peace. Loved reading hot rod with my boys as well. We have attended two drag week races togather.
Great seeing you today !!!
I am officially a subscriber 👍
Welcome aboard!
my definition of a street car is, does it have working taillights, headlights, and blinkers and if you had to could you daily drive it for a few weeks.
1000+ miles screams daily to me
Dot approved
What we do in sweden is that you build a car, u register it and go to car inspection with a slow motor or The power turned down and after you switch motor or turn it up again. If The car inspection is sus they might ask for dyno papers so u go dyno it on a really low rev with engine turned down and its done then and If The car is 50 yrs old or older no future inspection is needed after the one u do to register it as a custom vehicle.
We got a lot of insane Street cars everywhere here that ppl actually use outside sthlm open and our drag week called Street week.
Nice- thanks for the info- love watching videos of the Stockholm open!!
Andy’s track trim is his street trim like yours, he runs with a radiator and doesn’t believe that you should have to take stuff off to race it
Frosty also never drove his car any real distance, and certainly not 1000+ road miles in a week. Driving it 10 KM round-trip from the shop to a local hamburger stand's Saturday night GTG doesn't mean much.
I remember my 1st Dragweek 2013 with you after my brother Bob hit both wall, so we were driving late at night, following you in 1.0 doing 80mph towing a trailer through a windy road coolest shit ever.... I knew I was hooked. I also remember you and Steve would just stop and go stand in Beer coolers because it was so bloody hot that year.
Street car: door slammer, runs on (commonly available) pump fuel, can sit in traffic and not overheat. License/register per legal requirements for its "home". Extra points for being able to place an order at a drive-through burger joint without having to shut car off... :-)
I agree with you. They all get down quick but pro mods don’t count as a street car to most
I don't get the whole debate.These street driven pro mods are a million times more streetable and reliable than many stock body,stock interior mildly built cars I've seen.I saw a dude with a mostly stock regal with mild 350 break down at the edge of town because the electric fuel pump under the hood vapor locked.
I don't care what nobody say it ain't nothing Street about these cars
@@andraedwards417 but if by law their street legal that makes em legal
Hey Tom. Love the car, love what all of you and your team have accomplished with it. My friend and I have done DW the last 3 years (MUCH slower car but still an amazing time) and saw your first 5 second pass in person. Congrats again. I appreciated you taking a few seconds to talk to us, despite how crazy the week is, and hope to see you at this years DW 2021. Just waiting on registration.
The knowledge presented on this video allows the average drag guy to understand exactly where the top guys stand and how they got there. Knowing your craft and sharing it with us is not something you see everyday. Thanks.
I love the way Tom Bailey presents the facts. Just wish one day I could meet the man.
i like the fact to watch murder nova on its new set up he did 3.9 in the 1/4 mile he has a video on it he is 2 seconds faster than this guy but was not even talked about what does that tell u
@@melissaweidman3326 that's eighth mile murder nova does he. does his in the quarter mile that's is a big difference
@@dannymartin6640 watch the video it is 1/4 mile 3.9 he has a new set up in his car he use to do 5's in the quarter mile he plans on being the fastest this year and he races 1/4 mile most of the time i thought the same thing no way 3.9 in the 1/4 mile but watch the video it is at a track and he claims he will be the fastest this year
@@melissaweidman3326 I'm sorry to tell you that I'm right and I hate to say it but your wrong because there is no way that your basically telling me that murder nova is as fast as a funny car because by what your telling me of murder nova is doing 3.90 in the quarter that's what alcohol funny car does and there's no way he's doing that I think it's just an honest mistake
@@dannymartin6640 did u watch the video try it
so happy you are making more videos!
Great video Tom. Love to hear your background/origin story. Keep it up!
Great Video Tom keep up the great work.. hope to see you do some videos on this year's Drag week or Rocky Mountain Race week..
I just watched a 1320 video with the Sorceress. During the video, they said to switch to drag trim they had to pull the fuel cell and the radiator. So there is a big conversion from street to race trim with that car as well.
Great channel! Do you think you could do a video on your racing story? Like how you got into drag racing and some of the cars you started out with? I’d really enjoy that! Thanks!
Thanks for the idea!
Lerry is the legend no ifs or buts about it. Nothing but respect for that guy
As soon as we pull out onto the road in that car it would be gone here in Australia. No way would we even get near driving that on the streets. You guys are soooo lucky to be able to. Love the videos Tom. Cheers
I once got defected for a set of air horns and got a ticket for a broken passenger side rear view mirror on a car that never originally had a passenger side mirror. Both times in queensland in the eighties where it was ok if you car was a rusted out shitbox.
Both of your cars posters are on our walls ! Awesome cars sick 1 and sick 2 !!!! Very nice video. Have a great safe day !
Recently found your channel, great content thanks for sharing
I wholeheartedly agree with the "everyone has an opinion" comment and of course, someone will complain no matter what is said or done as usual. You can't make everyone happy. For me, a street driveable 5-second car, with plates and insurance that gets a few miles put on it on the public roads qualifies. However, completing the virtual hell week that these track-to-track torture tests/events can be, lends a great deal of credence or credibility (read Respect there) to any claim ET or MPH. Everybody on the list should be happy to be on it, and appreciate Tom's consideration in his making of a list. Having made Drag Week multiple times and heading to Rocky Mountain Race Week this year as a spectator I'm always amazed at the effort it takes just to complete any of these events and everyone should be applauded for what is a very serious achievement. Looking forward to watching the Nomad, and Alex Taylor in her '55. You guys have a good week!!!
I'm enjoying the fresh change in the last few videos. The edits are very clean and well done!
Glad you like them!
Tom you have one of the best engine builders in the business. Driving them on the road would be great.
What a nice explanation Tom, thanks!
Been following Larry Larson for years and the S10 was to prove the absurdity of what was going on. He was the first into all of the benchmark averages and the one that normally did it without a trailer. The Nova is still the ultimate true street car. And truth be told, would be still be dominant on Drag Week if he still ran it.
The Nova would run in real steel (same class as the javelin), so there would be some stiff competition. Other than weight I think, the truck could have as well, steel cab and possibly bed
The Nova felt like the essence of what Drag Week was about. The S10 always seemed more like a statement about the direction that Drag Week was headed and the ludicrous lengths people were going to to 'win'. The times I've run across Larry at the drag strip and at a cruise in he seemed like just another dude that loves the sport.
@@xXxSelnixxXx, I completely agree, matter of fact real steel is the top class in my opinion. I get race cars can be tagged and insured, but they were never what they represented. At least the Nova and S10 had a true vin # and were once a real vehicle that drove actual miles. Yes the truck needed massive changes from street to strip, but at least it was once stock. But I do agree the Nova and the ones like it (Javelin and the gold 67 chevelle that ran the last Drag week 2019)) were what the whole thing was about. This is why I'd love to see more of them, but realize most people could not ever build something like that. I know i could never, most i could do, if i were lucky would be a mayyyyyyybe 10 second car that'd survive DW
I saw Larry Larson at an auto parts store in Blue Springs, Mo. and he was driving his Nova. Says it all for me.
I agree with your assessment, where I live it's like you, no emissions or inspections. However if you are running loud piped without cats, you can get ticketed. So my philosophy, is If you got it tagged and can actually street drive it, cool. Hearing Larson might be bringing the truck out again, made my year. I also heard Lutz might bring something (rather see the 57 than the promod), but would love to see you guys run again. Look forward to seeing any of you, that do show up.
Really enjoy the channel and cars. I have to say I love the Torino. I had a 68 with a 390 4 speed when I was 16 and my pop sold it because he was mad at me. I am searching for a 68-69 now as to me it is such a great body car!! Keep up the great videos
Thanks Tom for explaining what you see as a street car as where i live there is no way you could even drive that out of your drive way lol. You put a turbo, supercharger, nos or even put different brakes or c notch a frame you have to apply for a cert and will often be declined. You guys in the USA are very lucky.
It’s crazy how everybody has a different opinion of what a true street car is
A lot of it, I assume, is the restrictions in the particular city/state. For example in my state (Ga.), out of all the counties, there are only 13 that have inspections or emissions testing. My county (Bulloch), isn't one of them. So technically, I could tag and insure anything that I have a vin # on. However there is a few restrictions, that even I have to follow. State law says, if the car has cats, they have to stay, or be replaced if necessary. Anything before the application of cats don't need them of course. But if you keep the exhaust quiet enough, they rarely ever inspect, so rarely ever gets caught. That is my state and my county, others may be much more restrictive, or even looser
@A Man In A Hat These organizations can't run one set of rules, that would exclude so many people and this is strictly fun. if this were NASCAR or NHRA yes a set set of rules would work, because there's money to be made. But for these type things it's dependent on the tagging state. If Cali then you have laws to follow, In my county in GA the only thing i got to worry about is noise (no emission checks). I could fix that with electric cutouts or long enough pipes off turbos to dissipate the noise. It's all about the state you live in and the specific county in my case (13 have checks and also pull over checks). the only solution if you want to run tags without checks is move where they don't do checks, or vote the motorheads in
Your drag week runs were insane glad I found your channel 1Luv and if it drives on the street and has a license plate it's a street car
First off, I love all of this stuff! I just wanted to throw my opinion out there. I think to be a "street car" should be a steel cab, roof, quarters, with a factory assigned vin tag, and stock wheelbase for that production car. I think that pushes the capabilities of a builder/driver. That makes it more interesting to watch, instead of someone calling a promod a street car. Again nothing but respect, this is only my opinion.
Completely agree. Idc what your state law allows, a pro mod is not a street car.
So cars with a fiberglass body wouldn't be a street-car in your opinion? A corvette isn't a street-car then I guess.
Great info, thanks Tom
Nothing but respect here for all yall because it takes dedication and money which is a mfker but great video I will definitely watch any further content u put out because when I see that pass at the end of drag week and effectively made drag week history I was blown away tom great job man 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 hell yeah 😂😂
Man sorry about the car this weekend .im glad you are ok .looks like the safety equipment worked .hope the car is not to bad and you can rebuild it .im sure your already working on it .very cool to see the car this weekend .good luck. Thanks
You and lutz need to battle it out again!
That is seriously one hell of an accomplishment, very well done sir. Love your channel! 😎👍👍👍
Thank you for doing this video Mr Bailey. I would love to get your take on the Street Outlaws show, drivers and their respective cars as to where they stack up in your opinion. Subscribed
Great suggestion!
@@sickthemag side note. I’m very sorry to hear about your car fire. Glad you are ok but it just makes me sick to see such a beautiful car destroyed...
Nice video, and very nice looking top of the shop.
Tom your car is what I'm talking about. You can literally race your car at the track and leave 5-10 minutes later and you're driving down the road you have a true street car in my eyes
Great video Tom thanks alot
Glad you enjoyed it
Currently building a 2wd duramax for the street and I just can't get enough of the streets. Currently at 900rwhp 1600 ft lbs. Of torque and runs 7.7 in the 1/8th still 7400lbs with me🤏
Excited to see what's next up.
I love Jeff's mad max camaro, it's one of my all time favorite cars in drag racing.
Mad max and the evil twins
I'm sorry but I never thought of streetcars as cars with roll cages redesigned fiberglass bodies, custom built engines, parachutes and slicks. I can't imagine trying to drive a high horsepower monster with slicks like that in the rain.
Nice showing this weekend.
Just found your channel!! Love your car and it’s the best “street car” change over wise from street to strip imo!!
You ROCK brother! Hell yeah! Keeping it real!
Does Tom have a full video of the 5.77 quarter mile run? I can only find a short
Your the best Tom love your ride it’s a true street car and drag car keep up the good work my friend
Love the channel!
Larry switches parts your car was never a manufactured car, it's a carbon fiber stretched out pro mod type car and lutz included so their needs to be a solid set of rules with no bending of the rules.
Its nearly 3k lbs and it fits the rules.
Great effort Tom it would be great to see a class that did drag drive and circuit that would really sort the men out from the boys .Most of these cars couldn't be beat on constantly on the street without overheating unless the radiator is huge and billet heads are questionable they just idle along but it is was it is and they deserve the ranking
I suppose the european and Japanese cars would dominate if a circuit course was added I doubt the gt40 or corvette could compete
what is your opinion on the tri five wagon that was on drag week i think 2 yrs ago with the top fuel motor in it
I actually agree with this. Lol.
Andy was moving on out at 263 with his combo. But ain't no doubt about it #SICKSECONDS #TOMBAILEYRACING
is doing the damn thing !!
Love the new build with the Dennis Taylor that's happening!! Gonna be SICK !!!!
Very informative Tom, great content 🔥. Keep it coming 🙌🏽
Glad you mentioned the Vauxhall.
The rules for what we can drive on the road here in sweden is werry hard, the fast Swedish cars in drag week is not legal on our streets.
We just hope we dont get caught 😉.
I did some crank work for Andy Frost a while back, great car, great bloke.
Great job Tom, you're a bad bad man!
Love seeing your cars around town. Sad Milan shutting it's doors..
Is there anyway to speak w/u? IDW to compete with anybody But I would like turn my Pro Mod into street kinda car because there is No Tracks anywhere near me anymore & my car has been sitting in trailer over decade & Its a 1 off Vanishing Point Car But its Blown, So I know Id need a water block engine because the KB Olds would never work on street..Im not looking go far, just drive it around & Im Not A Rich Man, So I was wondering if you could giv-me some advice on what you think would be best approach for a guy who doesnt have bank roll But I can make Afew Things Happen, Thanks for reading this🐾
I wanna see more on your restomod talladega
Love the Torino in the background.
Or is it a Talladega? Looks to be a ‘68?
When I was the announcer at the now-defunct Frank Maratta's Connecticut Dragway... we used to call them Daily Driver... The vehicle you drove Everyday... 'Nuff said!!!...
Wait a minute. Change over. Were you not changing lash settings on 2.0? as You did for 1.0? for street vs racing?
Pretty sure he said he does. I dont see how adjusting valves is a big deal.
@@heavydhit56 He said in another video, but not this one. Just citing that there is more change over than what was discussed. And if we are talking street to strip, it's something. Was not putting it out here to be a dick, just pointing it out. I respect the hell out of what those guys do.
I love going back and watching older shows to see how things progress and most people make the mistake thinking just because you can't register it in California means you can't drive it there as long as it's legal to drive where it's registered it can drive on any U.S. street
I do love living in Australia but man we are the nanny's off the car world.. pod filter get you in trouble 😂
Just a few years ago cars this capable and street legal didn't exist! Cars that can do the Power Tour with air-conditioning and high voltage stereo can do 200mph in the quarter!
Good content Tom. As far as Larry Larson goes it wouldn't surprise me if he made whatever changes to his Cadilac and run that car on Drag/Race week. Look forward to seeing you compete this year...... are you aware of any new builds shooting for that top five this year?
I don't see Larson doing it. He is a invite with NPK and that schedule won't allow.
@@jasonritter2492 ok cool thanks for the info/reply.
i also believe steel roof and quarters and minimal changes btwn street and track. i notice larson and lutz dont drive these new cars (larsons pickup has been on outlaws and no prep) but not the car. yea you can drive the pro mod on the street with a fake vin, but keep it the same for the track.
You're not wrong Tom Australia is tough on moded street cars every state is different also which obviously complicates things going interstate.
Yep, agree with your list partner - not that my pidley opinion matters but to me it does :)
True you’re right good job 👍
It is very hard to compare considering how strict it is over here in Australia, we simply cannot have the "promod" cars on the road. But Definitely Frank Marchese from Dandy Engines should be on that list. 6.90's at over 200mph, in a street driven, all steel, glass windows, factory floor pan, factory wheel tubs, leaf sprung, 275 radials, four door XW falcon with a world block (steel) twin turbo windsor.
I really want to see a Video on that Torino
I second that !!
I'd like to see this using every day drivers!
Most of these can be driven daily. To and from work has nothing on raceweek
Basically what I can for the whole mph with a slower et or faster et with less mph is how hard it's accelerating and where. It also has to do with how long you have to accelerate too I believe. A car on the track longer might have more time to go vroom vs a car on the track less time? Shit gets complicated when you get going that fast. Top fuel physics are nuts and that's what I'm loosely basing this on with what I probably don't know... Lol
Never knew you had a channel until I was watching Cleet and got one of your videos in my recommendations! Keep them coming and I'll keep watching! God bless!
thanks!
I watched your first 5 on drag week. Your a bad ass man Mr. Bailey. Great video
Top five promod street cars.
You guys in America are lucky to drive almost anything.
Anyone interested in seeing some Australian street cars, check out the jun11 skyline from Sydney. True 6 second street car.
Five quickest pro mods competing in street car events.
Holy crap! Nice rigs, great drivers, fun to watch, but for me, I need steel quarters and roof.
Will you do some no prep racing in the future ?
Your car is insane. I'll give it to all of them in the top 5, that's no joke.
That sorceress is creeping up, this vid may need a update soon but that said sick week may bring need for a update with 2.0 and the Canadian's both on kill. Cannot wait to see these cars in real life
Good vid. Someone on UA-cam said it wasn't Steve's fault for the fire it was ypurs
Removing parts is bending the rules of a 'street car', but not when you put a license plate on a pro-mod. You Americans crack me up.
Billy Glidden would show up with a naturally aspirations small block and be there beside ya .
So chill! Cool content tho
Best of luck 👍
No NA small block is running 5.9s so chill
Driving in any state without the police catching you is very different than getting state approval beforehand.
Can't wait for the day someone figures out how to run a Top Fuel car on the street XD
As long as there are no turns.
I’m actually working on it. Just watch for a blue 65 ford custom. I’ll be at dragweek this year.
@@willd206 Awesome.
When gas stations start selling Nitromethane somebody may figure it out.
Scott Palmer has a real Top Fuel promod.... not very streetable
So basically Tom your saying that the 60s 70s 80s and 90s cars are the fastest drag cars that actually proves a point
Killer video nice job .how about a tour of your collection maybe a little bio on you .what about the hurst olds .didnt i see something with you sand drag racing .just basically some stories .you have done a bunch of interesting things in your career. Tell us about them . Just keep them coming love it .lol edit just seen the web site to order shirts .lol
Number 5 car looked like west coast customs pimped Andrade's cutless.
It is so bad ... hate to talk shit but that doesn’t even look like a car
BAD ASS TOM !
I was in Florida not far from Gainesville when his car caught fire. I live in NC
Have to laugh at all the *asterik comments. You guys are true racers, competitive to the core! BTW, I’m guessing your competitors might give you an *asterik for having Steve Morris, one of the top race engine builders in the world traveling with you as your crew chief! 😉🤣, BTW, love the cream colored car behind you. Is that a Ford Torino or a Merc Marauder? Looks really sweet!
😂😂 Talladega
Larsen was the OG in his nova, when the cars were cars
What kind of gas mileage does it get on the road?
sweden is very strict, none of the cars that come to america are allowed on the street as they are.. we go around the rules by swiching engines etc for the yearly inspections or just drive them illegaly on the street.
some cars from way back have papers called t31ax that say that they can run whatever they want but its very hard to do today as you are only allowed a certain power to weight ratio etc.
Aerodynamics and power
