    Thank you, Lucky, Alex, Freiburger, Finnegan. The film crews for Roadkill, you’re all mvps and I love what you all were able to do in the past 15 years.
    You’ve all become a part of our lives. I don’t want to believe I’ll never get another notification there’s a new Roadkill or Roadkill Garage, Hotrod Garage. 😢😢😢😢😢 😞 😞
    Hopefully they’ll post here on UA-cam.
    Mike and David, Dulcich. Alex, etc,
    They could totes film themselves doing a car pickup sight unseen and we’d watch the shizz out of it. I’ll watch it five times!

    Lucky is such a *character.* From the early days of you on HRG, David F. was / asking the question in comments; *wondering how you two would get along).* Inspiring to see the amount of effort you put into making things work; regardless of what life tosses into your path. Thanks for tolerating *stuff,* and hanging in there. Lots of kudos / (praise), to you.

    My Hot Rod magazine history...
    I was with my mom at the grocery store in 1970 (11 years old.) hanging out at the magazine rack checking out all the drag cars in Hot Rod magazine. Mom found me when she was done at the mag rack. I begged her to buy the Hot Rod mag and she agreed. I spent the rest of Saturday afternoon on the floor of the living room reading every article and staring at every picture in that mag. Then I found the subscription card! Please mom! Please! will you get me this magazine? Well, we'll see you do have a birthday coming up... A year later I must have had 150 Hot Rod magazine pictures out of the magazines on the walls of my bedroom. Hey, I thought it was cool, mom & dad probably not so much, lol.

    You honestly we’re at the peak of all the Shows, it totally sucks what they did. I know exactly how how you guys feel being in the movie industry for 40+ years I’ve been on a lot of shows that seem to be chugging right along and then the next thing you know they pull the plug and say go home we’re done. It sucks especially when you have a family and you guys are just moving right along with a great Eban flow I know it won’t be for long because you guys are talent talent with your shows and talent behind the wheel and wrenches thank you for all the wonderful things you’ve done for me keeping my head twisted on right while I was at the wrong end of the match

Great content Alex, it's great to see you encouraging the crew's social media. I'm a huge fan of Holley too, I have the fuel pressure regulator that I'm going to put in the Scion. I'll have to scour the website and see what I can find!

    Shame that WB decided to cancel the Motortrend shows. I thought with the chemistry you and Lucky had you could be a contender for the top spot at Motortrend TV. I believe this is just the motivation everyone may have needed to move to another platform like UA-cam . Just as the slow progress away from print magazines like Hot Rod to Internet based reporting is happening . This could be the movement of video based content. Thank everyone for what MotorTrend TV did for the Hot Rod culture encouraging "Good Enough For Now". Good Luck in the future

    Back in 1972, I put the first gen LT1, balanced and blueprinted engine in my 72 Camaro. I didn't know better than to go on road trips with it and finally cracked one of the 2.02" heads while racing a Porsche through the mountains of Virginia. I still managed to drive it back to Eastern Michigan by taking a sparkplug out and turning the engine over so a stream of water could exit the cylinder. I kept an eye on the oil temp. and made it into my driveway. For fun, I put on a set of CCed angle plug heads and drove the car until the oil embargo made finding 100 octane gas impossible. The engine went into a Nomad Station Wagon, and I haven't seen it since.
