Glad Dave Schroeder is okay. That was quite a wreck. It's a great reminder to all of us who enjoy watching these 3000+ HP monsters on the track that when things go wrong, they can really go wrong. Let's hope that the rest of Sick Week is safe, above all.
I love the people that stand in front of the cars when they are doing a 2 step Check. One wire end coming loose while the car is vibrating and banging all over the place (obviously feasible) and that Trans brake releases and launch time, right through the crowd. If they knew all the gailure points that could cause the brake to release suddenly they wouldn't stand there.
0:25 0:37 Once again " Cleetus " proves that he is an unsafe idiot doing stunts for clicks. There is absolutely NO DEFENSE for bringing a car up on the trans brake with the car on the ground / people standing in front. He should be thrown out of the event, no excuses. And yes, I'm prepared for the fan bois to call me childish names.
Just the best drag racing content! Always stops my heart to see racecar crash, glad the safety gear works. This is for all you people out there building fast cars, remember the safety gear too! Without it its a death trap. Broke my back while racing but I’m still here!
Glad Shroders was fine, shame for the crash. Hope to see Ben and his Barra powered Toyota Cresta in the video and maybe "interview" with him being one of the Aussies
Great content , I keep checking the feed for Sick week racing with the other You Tubers posting. I know its still early days but Team Sweden is going to tough to beat.
Drag and Drive its where its at, takes the monotony out of Regular Drags and makes you appreciate your investment in 2 ways over one..imho..That Green Mustang ain't no joke, I have a feeling he will be consistent..WATCH OUT 👍
I think it looked like Schroeder lost a right side axle and that's what turned him to the right suddenly. Even though you can't really see it in the video, he said it was shaking like crazy so that could very well have snapped the axle.
Man that was heart breaking seeing Dave Shroders wreck after watching him in so many events as one of the big dawgs. Glad he seemed to be ok in the clip where he was getting checked out. Lotta good runs first day though. Gratz to Dennis and Alex on breaking into the 200 club Well done. Loved watching that car develop. Tom and Steve are Tom and Steve and are just expected to do well as always. Its almost an unfair advantage just being them 🤣
It's funny how many people still say Brade-ing-ton when there's no i or g in BradENton. I said it that way myself for years, until I went there, raced there and saw the actual signs (way back when any/all maps were paper only). Keep up the great work/videos👍 and looking forward to seeing everyone at Gainesville Raceway...
Timing issues aren't always engine timing. The driver has to be aware of timing and deal with the stress. Grabbing the wrong stick and such are so common. I would hate to be around a perfectionist during a Drag Week! These parts issues make me want to make all my parts to be sure someone didn't cheat me on the materials. That isn't a joke when it comes to these post-COVID parts that aren't up to tolerances.
@@DnBBHox Because every year it's the same thing some kind of electronic part failing, Especially since I use mechanical fuel injection like they did in the sixtys. Problem Free
It would be nice to get some of the background, stories and car details from more of the racers. We all know what the big hitters, popular drivers and your buddies are bringing but what about the 'regular' participants?
@@KickedInBirdcage The people that want the info. And, if you can watch the live streams the announcers do pretty good about giving info on the cars. They might end up posting the livestreams after they have time to process them.

im glad i decided to stay up a little later than normal just to see more sick week updates. Supporting all the way from New Zealand
whoever invented sick week is a genius and should be given a Nobel Prize (who started sick week ?)

I'm with ya fella....💪😎🍺🇳🇿
Hope all is well over in NZ bro, my mum is holidaying just south of Auckland at the moment.

Audio from 4:20 to 4:58. Dark from 4:46 to 4:58. Excellent content regardless! Thanks for taking time to give us some of the good stuff on camera!

Thanks Tom for all the SICK WEEK coverage...hope our Canadian driver is still okay the day after👍👍👍🇨🇦
Missing audio of Steve Morris at around 4:25.
Always enjoy the "off-track" coverage in addition to what goes on at the race track.
6.24 shaking the tyres off the line 😮😎
Here's to a 5 later in the week 😬
Seeing the 6s right at the end of the day was pretty cool too 😀
Thanks for the coverage sick team
Thanks for the upload Tom.

audio cuts out briefly after the 1st Steve Morris run at 4:25
Must have spilled some secret sauce by accident, heh heh.
I checked my volume twice! And switched speakers!
Thanks Tom
Sick
Thankfully he survived that brutal hit against the wall. God bless and I’ll say a prayer for these guys.
Thanks as always.
Watching from the UK.. Really enjoying your great content. Hope the driver from the crash is OK.
Yh that was him sat on the back step of the ambulance, he looked fine considering.
@@MattyEngland Thanks, The crash looked bad.. Shows how strong those cages are.
@@simon2knine Yeah definitely, amazing the amount of abuse they can take.
So sad to see Dave Shroders crash and so relieved to see him walk away and finally Tom managed to shut Steve Morris up. 🤣
Any idea what caused the crash? It pulled a little at the start but then seemed ok, until it wasn't.
@@8180634 he just stayed in it too long didn't have enough time to recover he said the cars usually very predictable until yesterday when it wasn't
@@8180634 cause of the wreck was bad driving.. Absolutely no reason to stay in it… shut down. make changes, go again.
@@8180634 he said it just pulled when the torque converter locked up. Could have been anything.
@@mraycgz ah probably broke one tire free and the other stuck, instant hard turn with those cars.
Great coverage! Thanks so much gang. 👍👍
Thanks TB for all the great footage !
Good Lord, I didn't realise quite how big Dave's crash was, glad he was ok.
Crashing at the top end with 3000hp is never pretty, hope his okay
Glad Shroders was fine, shame for the crash.
Hope to see Ben and his Barra powered Toyota Cresta in the video and maybe "interview" with him being one of the Aussies
So awesome to see Alex Taylor getting her first 6second run
Love the Snot Rocket, the white Roadmaster wagon, 4 door 1/8 mile chevelle, 53 Chevy, hoppin VW.
Looks like some struggles, but pervailance paying off good luck to all and stay safe.
I did not see that coming, especially a veteran like Dave. Glad to see him sittin' upright. Safety safety safety! How many time did it roll over?
Great content , I keep checking the feed for Sick week racing with the other You Tubers posting. I know its still early days but Team Sweden is going to tough to beat.
4:25 Steve was so heated they just had to mute the entire interview 😂😂
Great video, like seeing the variety as well as the big guns
Great see the driver survive the deadly crash the car was built right to protect the driver
I hope Shroder is doing well and hope to see him back soon
Drag and Drive its where its at, takes the monotony out of Regular Drags and makes you appreciate your investment in 2 ways over one..imho..That Green Mustang ain't no joke, I have a feeling he will be consistent..WATCH OUT 👍

I am so grateful that the shutdown area has concrete walls now. 10 years ago with the metal guard rails that would have been a fatal accident
That crash was shocking hate to see it hope everyone is okay
Weather looks good all week
Digging watching Sock Week! Thanks!
Man that was heart breaking seeing Dave Shroders wreck after watching him in so many events as one of the big dawgs. Glad he seemed to be ok in the clip where he was getting checked out.

So happy for you all.
Steve's post race audio is missing, in case it hasn't been brought to y'alls attention yet
Such a shame about Dave. Met him twice, always nice and respectful. He's ok and cars can be replaced. Thats the 1 positive takeaway
Whoever is voicing that sick the mag ad in the beginning needs a gold metal. Through me back straight into early 2000s nhra footage and Nascar ads.
That LUV truck is sweet
The marks from rear view of big tire shake looks like trying to drive on sand paddles.
Hated seeing Dave hit the wall like that. Hope everyone has a fun and safe week.
Man when swedish guys lay down a pass they put it all down. That's some serious power! The Corvette squats like it's going to jump up into the sky.
Steve Morris racing talk 600 Holley Offenhowser manifold or 600 Holley Stealth no dyno test. May go 80 front jets drill 80 rear.
That just hurts to see Schroeders Vette go for a mega wild ride! Glad he's ok.
What happened to the audio when Steve Morris was talking
4:30 no sound? (is a song playing in the back?)
audio cut out 4:23
Watching the live feed on my tv as I watch this on my phone. FF4life
did anyone else lose audio on the steve morris part

At 4:24 or 4:20 sound is lost not sure why but I thought I'd let you know
Glade Dave is ok ,not big vet fan but love the looks of his.
Where is Joe Berry. I don't see him around the track this year.
4:24 steve has no audio, 4:45-4:55 black screen.
Garrett can’t say “With a Bruno Lenco setup in it..” without a shirt eating grin on his face lol
How is driving them BA cars on the public roadway legal with no mufflers?
I'm happy to see Alex Taylor hit the 6's

That shoot on the starting line ouch
That Monte Carlo ss at 10:24 is nice. Anybody know his name or page?
is that Richard Gere driving the red Vette lol.
Glad to see guys spooling and getting on the bump ( not on Jack stands) in the pit area with spectators right in front🤦♂️
Depending on the trans it will break it going on the trans brake and hitting the bump with it in the air.
You gotta love just sitting back and Watching all the electronic parts fail
Why?
@@DnBBHox Because every year it's the same thing some kind of electronic part failing, Especially since I use mechanical fuel injection like they did in the sixtys. Problem Free
@@shanerice8030 that’s why there breaking into the 5s and driving 1000s of miles is because of technology
@@tarenbantam7705 I realize that, but its a HUGE Expense. It's a lot of money for a purpose built race car.
@@shanerice8030 😂🤦🏻

💪💪💪💪
When you use somebody else's third member Could it also be called Manaj a member?
Ik that it is sick week but the editing😬😬😬😬. No audio with Steve’s interview (only care cause I’m from muskegon) and the 4 second black screen?
Missing audio of Steve's interviw, just fyi.
Hate that some of the big dawgs are having issues
I spot a Cresta... 😄
Wiring problems are the worst on a drag n drive
2:01 and 2:05 I pray he is alive and recovers well from this! That was legit scary!
He’s fine, he walked away
What happened to the sound???
no sound around 4:40
Did someone forget to turn the microphone on?
Tom calls a 6.20 pass an ok pass... lol
what did Steve say
4:39 no sound in interview
Man last year he hurt his engine on the first or second day now this terrible crash. So sad to see another car i follow going by by
Hi Tom!
Well... This is a reminder that drag racing is not completely safe. I hope the driver made it out ok

How did Mc Flurrie do ? And Mullit do
McFlurry ran a 8 something at 150 and mullet did a 6.75/215.
Sounds d cuts out around 5
Would be nice for a little commentary on the racing if they know anything about the cars if not stay like it is
Getting pulled into the wall, whoever prepped that lane sucks, they need to tear out and resurface it
Why does Alex Taylor always yell at the camera? 😂
Looks like you had a bad video render or bad upload. Lost audio from 4:25-4:45, then from 4:46-4:56 lost audio and video
