    Dude Larry's like a mad scientist of race car building, and not to mention a drag racing ledgend.

    Hoping you will do a similar video on the Chevy II. That is such an iconic car and the one I first saw Larry in at Drag Week.

    I remember when I was getting into drag racing about 5 yearsp ago and he had the s10 out at heartland park and let me and my buddy look all around the s10 because we were building and testing ours at the same time.
    Larry and his crew was full of hospitality and left me with a great memory that’s still with me today🤟

    Much respect for you Larry. I can't say that about a lot of the other guys in the industry these days.

    Not one bad word towards any other racer, unlike someone here in my home state!

    The wide 5 front wheels are really cool, the side pipe mufflers were a great idea to stay incognito.

      Bailey won't go head to head with Larry even for time slips, Larry has too much competition experience both as a builder and racer. Besides, Bailey is getting a 55 nomad gasser built by Dennis Taylor for next year, more for show than go.

    Always been a fan of Larry and his cars. I've never had the chance to see them in person , so this tour of the S10 was really cool! The craftsmanship is amazing ! Would love to see a tour of the Chevy II....one of my all time favorite 66 Nova's that I feel I have grown up with.

    Thanks for sharing a brief history of your iconic S-10.
    It certainly shook up the drag week style fraternity so much that they had to change the rules to nobble you.
    Shame on them and major kudos to you for setting the "engineering" bar as high as you have.

    Look forward to seeing it run a Drag and drive again, been gone too long. If you wish to continue racing your regular stuff, That certain someone (record holder) is organizing his own drag and drive. Even if youcan't get it setup for next year, the runs are planned for February timeframe, so you won't lose any schedule races
