Mr bailey.what a great dad. You left your race car behind to let your boy race. To share the whole thing as a proud father 🇺🇲👍🙏. God bless you. Not many people want to spend time with there kids. Anymore 🇺🇸🇺🇲
Thanks Tom and Ayden for the great week of Videos. It was great to see the young Man go from no lic to 9 sec 1/4 mil runs. Thanks again for the great ride. Take care and stay safe. I can say us FANS/Viewers are proud of Ayden and what he did in a short time building and running the week. It is hard on PROs let alone a young Man on his first race week.
Hear, hear Matthew McCormick,, HEAR, HEAR! Of all the 30 0r so comments I've read yours IMHO says everything with ONE EXCEPTION I might add,, we know Ayden needs at least 3 or 4 summers (hope he goes off to college and earns a degree in business management so he can be of benefit to Dad's business!) of drag racing, working his way up the ranks to one day pilot a Tom Bailey SICK 'Three Second' ProMod with Bailey Racing, Dennis Taylor Chassis & Steve Morris Engines logos plastered all over it. Whata bunch of great memories the guys enjoyed making this week. Thank YOU Tom for taking us along,, we thoroughly enjoyed every video AND we're guessing we ain't seen NUTH'N yet of the Sh*tBox '57!.
9 seconds is pretty damn impressive, my first 1/4 mile was 14. And that was fast for a road registered car 20 years ago. I was told that every 1 second you shave off requires double the HP but I was pushing a 4 banger at 100hp per piston. The fuel is a lot better now but think 1998 tech if you have.
I think the Cleetus car, Mullet is a masterful work of art by Kevin. However, the SBX of Doom is my favorite car......hands down. Looking forward to following it on Race Week 2.0 And.....Aydan needs a burnout car for Cleetus and Cars.
Kevin @KSR got the last laugh, he pulled a John Deere on Cleeter. Sure you own the car but he made it so technical Kevin is the only one who can tune it. Cleetus needs a GTO (gas,tires and oil) car unless it takes nitrous or can be worked on with a hammer and cresent wrench him and James are lost. You notice since Dr. Tune Em All didn't work on them they didn't wheelie and break stuff.
Tom, I lost my son when he was only 6, so every father's day weekend is bittersweet. Now, I am 73 and really enjoyed watching the videos with you and Aydan has really touched my heart. Seeing the love and camaraderie between you, feeling your pride in how well Aydan progressed, and how he handled disappointments was very special. Life is a gift on loan and it is important to live every day as it will be the last. Thank you again for sharing with us. (I subscribed to Sick, too.)
Some day you two will look back at these days hours and moments as the most precious in your life. Events like these bond fathers and sons together like steel. Just imagine looking back at these moments 20 years from now. There will be nothing in the world that can replace them.
Ive watched all of this series, what a great story to see Aydan go from first run to last and see his confidence grow. Wow, he has a great future. and well done Dad and coach, he is learning from the best. Outstanding. Cant wait until next race week. Subbed!!
I have LOVED this series of videos! Yeah, I like watching Tom get in the 5’s, but as a father, this was extra special to watch. Can’t wait to see Aydan’s drag racing career progress… Good racer…great father. Kudos, Tom!
Was great seeing Aydan going from first pass and progressing through the week. I look forward to seeing more in the future! Awesome gang, awesome car and an awesome week. Was it hot though? :D
A lot of things to be proud of in this video. Aydan, Tom, the car, and a road trip on steroids. That's making memories done right. Aydan is so cool, calm, and focused behind the wheel I don't think that lauching in a Falcon rocket would get his pulse over 85 bpm. 😆 🤣 😂
It's great to see young people step into the sport and with a proud father standing beside helping and giving advice is the greatest thing ever, it is a memory you will both remember forever.
Thx for uploading all week you guys and I'm excited to watch a future star being born as long as we can make the Gov't understand that these cars arent hurting shit. SIGN THE RPM ACT EVERYONE.
It's not just racers and gun owners it's companies like Fitzgerald's out of bardstown Tennessee the EPA giving them heck for making glider trucks some of the most beautiful trucks in the country I went by yesterday and they were no trucks in their yard usually there's about 2 or 3,000 trucks there so they probably put them out of business also.
Can anyone tell me how Tom in his car why not did this year and who was overall winner I wished that they would have showed the results but somebody says I can go to Facebook and find it but I do not have Facebook I would appreciate the info if somebody knows where I could go and find the standings of the or the results of the races
For me it's been a privilege to watch you guy's and all of aidens progress this week. I think he's gonna be one to watch in the future, and of course with a dad like Tom he's learning to do it the right way. Way to go guys!
Tom, you are a good, calm dad!!!.... My oldest son did this after he graduated from high school. He drove our 8.teen altered. First car he ever drag raced. The TIME you spend with your kids is to be cherished and remembered....
Dad , I know you appreciate how lucky you are to be able to have these experiences w/ Ayden . Ayden , I'm 72 , my dad passed away when I was 10 , and I wish I could have had just one more time w/my Dad . I know that you will always appreciate your time together . Good luck and keep it up you are going to be someone to contend with , You already are proving to be one now !
Being a father myself..I very much enjoyed riding along. Thank you Bailey Boys..can't wait for the next adventure...time to get back out to the shop and finish the 6 litre for one of my vehicles.
Credit to you Tom for leaving your car at home & going with Aydan in the Sbxdoom. What awesome memories for you both. Well done on the build to all involved. It was a pleasure to watch from start to finish- all the way from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺👍🏻👍🏻🏁🏁
This team was my favorite this year from watching him going from learning how to do the burnout to a 9.1 and wouldn't even talk the first three days it was a epic win congratulations 💯🇺🇸🔥✌✌
Watching dad working with Aydan to get him to get comfortable with racing and the car was fun to watch all week and look forward to faster times! Thanks for sharing your journey with us!!
We join Tom, Momma Bailey and all the fans in congratulating young Ayden's many, many successes earned during the last 10 days of his young life. Thanks Bailey Family for taking us along for the trip,, we enjoyed being a small part of the event!
Aydan awesome job mate as I'm 50 years old and I'm still chasing my first 8 sec pass... I feel a low 8 sec pass is coming by the end of the year Aydan I feel it in my old bone's. Lol You must be so proud Tom...
As a father you must be so proud of him for what he accomplished. And you guys did a great job showing us what it takes to do race week. Congrats to you both...
Tom Bailey, this is great content. Most guy would be happy just to run the 1/4. How great to be able to see your son driving and growing. That’s truly living the life.
Ayden, You have progressed from your first "9" to knocking on "8's" door in a week. Fast timeslips are cool and all, but that unexpected shit, that you'll never forget, is what memories are made of. Getting to do all of this with your dad, is priceless. I hope you realize that.
it was a nice to see a son listen to what his very knowledgeable father had to teach him and in the end had a great weekend of driving, racing, bonding , you know the things that fathers and son s do everyday across America. and the sbox did great
Mr. Bailey you're a real hard man to read, but the one thing you cannot miss it's the pride in your eyes for your son... amen and may the Lord continue to bless you'lls Journeys...
Great job Aydan. practice makes perfect and you have a teacher that loves you. Your safety is number one. the numbers will come as you get more comfortable with the whole procedure. just to finish is a win for your first time out with a new car.
Great Dad and Son week for sure. 8.31 That ole 57 Chevy stationwagon ROCKS. I'll say from watching, Proud Dad. Rocky Mountain Race Week was a success and a blast to watch.
thanks Tom and Ayden, and whoever else helped you out, i always enjoy following Raceweek from various sources, but yours was the content i looked forward to most. honest, down to earth, and who cannot but like watching father and son having such adventures together. Ayden is lucky lad and his on camera persona has come along real well. He is a natural.
Thanks for taking us along for the ride, Tom and Ayden, it was a lot of fun watching Ayden's progression. I also wanted to comment that it's cools seeing
Great father and he is a good kid. Listens and learns. He reacts very well to problems. 9.12 at 142 is nothing to sneeze at. Well done yall. Love this car
Thank you two (plus support!) for this entire week. It's been a delight to watch Aydan's progression. I'm sure it's been an experience he'll relate to his own children one day.
You guys did an incredible job. Loved seeing the support you gave Aydan throughout the whole week. That time you guys had together is priceless. That's great stuff leading into father's day.
I think dad made sure Aydan’s progression was done safely and he controlled it well. Was great to watch father and son have an awesome week together. Can only be onwards and upwards. Well done guys
Congratulations Aydan. So many firsts. Just ending Race Week is big. You went a low 9 in your first week. The barely tested car was flawless. Definitely an 8 sec car with time. Dad has a right to be proud.
wonderful getting to be part of a father son journey and a memory that will last a lifetime for both of you. and the torture test you and these machines are put through and shine is amazing. got to love the technology and percervierance of all involved the comradiry and focus on the mission.....just finish. Loved it.
Man this was the coolest thing ever was. Race week is one of my dreams and I hope to do several of them. I couldn't imagine how much more awesome it is to do it with your son and keep this part of our American heritage alive. Props to you Tom bailey. You guys killed it!
Nice job Ayden, I could not be prouder on your progression. I am sure you had a lot of people on your side wishing you the best. And Dad you did very well also, giving him the tools to do well. And gentle guidance where/when needed. Thank you for sharing this with us. I am just an old Mechanic / Racer, with disabilities from injuries and health issues. I cannot do much anymore, I am hoping to build just one more and enjoy it.
Enjoyed the coverage of your experience in RMRW. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. Awesome to see Father and Son spend a fun week together. Congratulations on a successful trip!
What a great week its been to spend with you guys! An awesome dad spending quality time with his son in a race car. Can't get more American than that! Love the videos Tom. Keep it up!
Ayden, you did a wonderful job of racing this week. I trust your driving if I was sitting in a car with you. You have an awesome person to look up to, take his advice, i think he know what he talking about. It was a joy watching you guys everyday.
To say that I'm impressed in you and your sons effort this past week is an understatement. Congrats to you all for an amazing week, and thanks for sharing it with us all. To not only prepare a race car in such a short time but to actually finish race week, I take my hat off to you all.👏👏👍👌
You have a fine young man there and he has that look in his eyes when he's going down the track but after these videos you're going to have to watch out for him Tom because he's going to have a long line of girls wanted to get to know him just make sure it's the right ones Tom!
Tom it's awesome to watch you both! I remember my dad doing this with me about the same age. I lost my Dad March 2020. Even at 53 it's tuff. You guys are great together. It's great you guys finished and did Soo good I love the car! Happy Father's day Tom
Just Awesome to See the Father and Son Team! Even if no actual trophy wins its a life time memorable History for your Son. Congratulations making it to the end What a huge Accomplishments.
That whole trip was gutsy from the start with no prior testing. Just build and balls up. Very neat trip and somethin to be proud of for the NEW driver. You are a great teacher DAD.
Total success got miles under his belt also got some runs under his belt you can tell he's a lot more comfortable yeah we got to see a bunch of scenery which was cool definitely glad I was along for the ride all in all it was a great watch all week you two seem like you're on the same page which is great for morale which makes for a positive outlook on everything in return it makes for an awesome week thanks for taking me along
Hats off to this father n son team!! Great to see the plain ole fun a family can have!! The best part was getting to talk to Tom in Kearney ( not hidden behind some caution tape barrier like a certain group) and shaking his hand. Awesome job!! So do you build a new car again next year to keep things exciting 😝!! Ya Buddy!!
I came across your guys's video because I was looking for videos of a 57 Chevy wagon like the one that I have and I saw your video and watched the whole series and it's a really great story. And that's what it's all about spending time with family and making some friends along the way and a lot of great memories that you'll have for a lifetime. Great stuff. 😎👍🏻
A boy started Dragweek, A Man finished it! Good Job Pop! An 8 is probably not out of reach but dont rush it lol... That is hauling ASS for a tank on slicks 😂... Nice Work!
Well done Aydan, I'm very impressed by the way you handle yourself. You have the best dad in the whole world... what an awesome thing to do with your son Tom. Can't wait to see more in the future
Great job Aydan and Tom! It has been fun watching the entire series from the start of the build to the hood pin leaving the party. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride
Guys this was an awesome watch. I hope y'all both cherish the father/son time from this experience. After losing my Dad in 13 and my step-dad last yr, both of which were big car guys that I have many great memories with, seeing this journey really put a smile on my face. God bless y'all andook forward to future adventures.
You guys are all that and a cheeseburger too!!! 🚙💨💨 Thanks so much to the both of you T&A for sharing this journey, adventure, coming of age learning experience and above all..., "Real as it gets" Documentary. I've been here from the start, not once disappointed, loved /enjoyed every minute of it! Hats off to everyone responsible for the awesome video coverage and content. Looking forward to seeing more of Aydan and watching him progress, he's got the best mentor a guy could ever want.👍👍
Take an untested car, an untested driver . put in the forge , add some heat . Tom you have the beginnings of a great driver . honing skills are next . I wait to see the next step . Great job guys finishing .
Great vids, binge watched them with my dad this weekend. How awesome you get to make these memories with your son Mr. Bailey. Couldn't help but notice the joy on your face as your son progressed through the week!
Job done,my heart was in my mouth last couple of days,amazing how the turbo stayed in one piece,sure it was going to eat it,Brave men well done.Well done Dad.
Big congrats to Aydan and the whole Bailey family.... Beat the heat, gremlins and made some irreplaceable memory's to go with the adventure that is RMRW!
A great bit of fun! Having a way for a Father and Son to bond is incredibly awesome! Great job to both of you and your crew. Looking forward to seeing more.
It was cool seeing how Aydan progressed from the first burnout. Then to see how calm and collected he was by the end of this video. It's also killer to have a cool dad! Happy Father's day Tom!
Awesome week, Bailey boys! Enjoyed watching Aydan progress, and quickly! Won't be long until we see you guys going head to head! Thanks for the Race Week journey!
gotta love the "MOON TUNE" !!! great job guys . that car is a great build . did an Awesome job in the heat and half a turbo down and it still goes for the Moon . love it
Awesome work Aydan. You will be one to follow in the future that's for sure. It's always great to see so much father knowledge being passed to their kids Tom
Mr bailey.what a great dad. You left your race car behind to let your boy race. To share the whole thing as a proud father 🇺🇲👍🙏. God bless you. Not many people want to spend time with there kids. Anymore 🇺🇸🇺🇲
Couldn't agree more, have been thinking about that all week as I have watched each episode
Aydan will remember this week for the rest of his life.
Couldn't have said it any better. I feel the pride your feeling great 👍 job.
I enjoyed this week watching you guys it. This is a perfect example of how a father and son racing career begins. You guys are bad ass!
My thoughts exactly
Thanks Tom and Ayden for the great week of Videos. It was great to see the young Man go from no lic to 9 sec 1/4 mil runs. Thanks again for the great ride. Take care and stay safe. I can say us FANS/Viewers are proud of Ayden and what he did in a short time building and running the week. It is hard on PROs let alone a young Man on his first race week.
Hear, hear Matthew McCormick,, HEAR, HEAR! Of all the 30 0r so comments I've read yours IMHO says everything with ONE EXCEPTION I might add,, we know Ayden needs at least 3 or 4 summers (hope he goes off to college and earns a degree in business management so he can be of benefit to Dad's business!) of drag racing, working his way up the ranks to one day pilot a Tom Bailey SICK 'Three Second' ProMod with Bailey Racing, Dennis Taylor Chassis & Steve Morris Engines logos plastered all over it. Whata bunch of great memories the guys enjoyed making this week. Thank YOU Tom for taking us along,, we thoroughly enjoyed every video AND we're guessing we ain't seen NUTH'N yet of the Sh*tBox '57!.
9 seconds is pretty damn impressive, my first 1/4 mile was 14. And that was fast for a road registered car 20 years ago. I was told that every 1 second you shave off requires double the HP but I was pushing a 4 banger at 100hp per piston. The fuel is a lot better now but think 1998 tech if you have.
He is my granddude.
Doesn't get any better watching a dad teach his son how to adapt and overcome to whatever life / racing throws at you.
This whole week has been a blast to watch! Hope to be part of one someday. Looking forward to more awesome content from the channel
Took the words right outta my mouth!
My new favorite channel
makes me want to drag my ford focus
@@adamlevinsky8627 do it up! If i heard the announcer correctly they had a true street class all the way up to the pro classes
I think the Cleetus car, Mullet is a masterful work of art by Kevin. However, the SBX of Doom is my favorite car......hands down. Looking forward to following it on Race Week 2.0
And.....Aydan needs a burnout car for Cleetus and Cars.
Agreed...a burnout car would be nice.
I cant click the button enough to express my likes. But I have to disagree with part of your comment. I think they both need burnout cars.
Kevin @KSR got the last laugh, he pulled a John Deere on Cleeter. Sure you own the car but he made it so technical Kevin is the only one who can tune it. Cleetus needs a GTO (gas,tires and oil) car unless it takes nitrous or can be worked on with a hammer and cresent wrench him and James are lost. You notice since Dr. Tune Em All didn't work on them they didn't wheelie and break stuff.
@@markthegunplumber8376 Also noted... this is a brand new chassis, not a car that has hundreds of passes on it.
@@markthegunplumber8376 you’re also comparing a purpose built full chassis race car to a couple of corvettes with all bolt on parts and boost.
Aydan is a natural ....Can't wait to see him and the car full send
Tom, I lost my son when he was only 6, so every father's day weekend is bittersweet. Now, I am 73 and really enjoyed watching the videos with you and Aydan has really touched my heart.

I think he just likes to say "moon tune"...😂 Absolutely amazing job! Loved everything about this series!❤❤❤
And “it’s hot”. The Bailey genetics are born for racing though!
Aydan looks like he's driving miss daisy, appears so relaxed running down the 1/4. 👍
He looks so calm and relaxed in the car that quality is rare for his age 👍🏻
I was thinking the same thing.. just so calm and cruising 👍
Ive watched all of this series, what a great story to see Aydan go from first run to last and see his confidence grow. Wow, he has a great future. and well done Dad and coach, he is learning from the best. Outstanding. Cant wait until next race week. Subbed!!

Great content, really appreciate the candid honesty and real life racing, again thanks for bringing us along!

ATTA-Boy for dad and son. Loved it!
9.1 with a wonky turbo and the air brakes deployed? What a way to end the week. And what a week. Well done young man well done Dad.👏👏👏👏
It's great to see young people step into the sport and with a proud father standing beside helping and giving advice is the greatest thing ever, it is a memory you will both remember forever.
Thx for uploading all week you guys and I'm excited to watch a future star being born as long as we can make the Gov't understand that these cars arent hurting shit. SIGN THE RPM ACT EVERYONE.
I see you on all the racing channels! Lol.
Amen brother!
Go leave a comment for the ATF too. Racers and gun owners are fighting the same battle right now, just with 2 different agencies.
It's not just racers and gun owners it's companies like Fitzgerald's out of bardstown Tennessee the EPA giving them heck for making glider trucks some of the most beautiful trucks in the country I went by yesterday and they were no trucks in their yard usually there's about 2 or 3,000 trucks there so they probably put them out of business also.

Some people are born to race...but Father AND son, now that's something else.
Super folk, super car...wonderful to watch.

Great job, Aydan! Solid race week. Tom, I can't praise you enough for being there for your son, and supporting him like you have. Happy Father's day!
Dad , I know you appreciate how lucky you are to be able to have these experiences w/ Ayden . Ayden , I'm 72 , my dad passed away when I was 10 , and I wish I could have had just one more time w/my Dad . I know that you will always appreciate your time together .

Aydan awesome job mate as I'm 50 years old and I'm still chasing my first 8 sec pass...
I feel a low 8 sec pass is coming by the end of the year Aydan I feel it in my old bone's. Lol You must be so proud Tom...
Hey!!! 50 is NOT old…ok
@@MrCharlesAdrian Lol I have a fried lower back mate so I feel 25 years older than I am. Cheers mate I got a laugh out of this.
I was waiting for this exact comment...this kid is so calm behind the wheel after this week of racing you would think he was much older now
@@Ricky-nq7lu my pleasure brother, keep safe and well
As a father you must be so proud of him for what he accomplished. And you guys did a great job showing us what it takes to do race week. Congrats to you both...

Great father and he is a good kid. Listens and learns. He reacts very well to problems. 9.12 at 142 is nothing to sneeze at. Well done yall. Love this car
Thank you two (plus support!) for this entire week. It's been a delight to watch Aydan's progression. I'm sure it's been an experience he'll relate to his own children one day.
Thanks for taking me along on your RUclips race journey this week. Amazing progress in just a few days. That car is a Brick Shit Box, amazing build!
You guys did an incredible job. Loved seeing the support you gave Aydan throughout the whole week. That time you guys had together is priceless. That's great stuff leading into father's day.
I think dad made sure Aydan’s progression was done safely and he controlled it well. Was great to watch father and son have an awesome week together. Can only be onwards and upwards. Well done guys

Man this was the coolest thing ever was. Race week is one of my dreams and I hope to do several of them. I couldn't imagine how much more awesome it is to do it with your son and keep this part of our American heritage alive. Props to you Tom bailey. You guys killed it!
Cool as the other side of the pillow lol
Super impressed with the young man !
Seems like a big delay from when he shifts and when the trans shifts
You two had a great adventure, thanks for bringing us along for the ride🙂
Cool week no matter how hot it got! Nice to be along with you and enjoyed the ride. I'm a wagon guy, I have had my 55 Nomad since 1974.

You have a fine young man there and he has that look in his eyes when he's going down the track but after these videos you're going to have to watch out for him Tom because he's going to have a long line of girls wanted to get to know him just make sure it's the right ones Tom!
A pleasure to watch all week. You guys are calm and cool, despite the outside temperature. Nice job!
Father and son having fun, that's what counts. I enjoyed watching you to have a good time. Thanks
Sincerely appreciate you taking us on your adventure! It was exciting, thrilling and interesting! Thank you!!!
Tom it's awesome to watch you both! I remember my dad doing this with me about the same age. I lost my Dad March 2020. Even at 53 it's tuff. You guys are great together. It's great you guys finished and did Soo good I love the car! Happy Father's day Tom
Just Awesome to See the Father and Son Team! Even if no actual trophy wins its a life time memorable History for your Son. Congratulations making it to the end What a huge Accomplishments.
That whole trip was gutsy from the start with no prior testing. Just build and balls up. Very neat trip and somethin to be proud of for the NEW driver. You are a great teacher DAD.
You never make mistakes you dont have much to learn from. That young man did an awesome job, proud dad for sure.
Congratulations on a killer drag week. Cant think of a better Father/Son adventure . Mega Memories made!
Absolute Home Run Tom! That young man did great on that car, from the build to the last run.....There is a lot to be proud of ......For Both of you!
Total success got miles under his belt also got some runs under his belt you can tell he's a lot more comfortable yeah we got to see a bunch of scenery which was cool definitely glad I was along for the ride all in all it was a great watch all week you two seem like you're on the same page which is great for morale which makes for a positive outlook on everything in return it makes for an awesome week thanks for taking me along
Hats off to this father n son team!! Great to see the plain ole fun a family can have!! The best part was getting to talk to Tom in Kearney ( not hidden behind some caution tape barrier like a certain group) and shaking his hand. Awesome job!! So do you build a new car again next year to keep things exciting 😝!! Ya Buddy!!
I came across your guys's video because I was looking for videos of a 57 Chevy wagon like the one that I have and I saw your video and watched the whole series and it's a really great story. And that's what it's all about spending time with family and making some friends along the way and a lot of great memories that you'll have for a lifetime. Great stuff. 😎👍🏻
It was great watching Aydan come into his own. Chip off the old block. Tom, awesome watching you with your son. Proud papa for sure!!
Great to watch Father and Son out there, and letting Aydan learn and gain experience at his pace.
A boy started Dragweek, A Man finished it! Good Job Pop! An 8 is probably not out of reach but dont rush it lol... That is hauling ASS for a tank on slicks 😂... Nice Work!
Loved watching the week and Ayden’s progress and the Father and Son relationship. Great Job!
This is what the whole car culture is about. Father and son bonding. Happy father's day.
Well done Aydan, I'm very impressed by the way you handle yourself. You have the best dad in the whole world... what an awesome thing to do with your son Tom. Can't wait to see more in the future
Great job Aydan and Tom! It has been fun watching the entire series from the start of the build to the hood pin leaving the party.
Thanks for bringing us along for the ride
Guys this was an awesome watch. I hope y'all both cherish the father/son time from this experience. After losing my Dad in 13 and my step-dad last yr, both of which were big car guys that I have many great memories with, seeing this journey really put a smile on my face. God bless y'all andook forward to future adventures.
You guys are all that and a cheeseburger too!!! 🚙💨💨
