    Sick Week 2023 Presented By Gear Vendors Overdrive is at an end. What a huge week as the world's quickest street cars drove the highways of Florida and competed with all their hearts in the Super Bowl of drag-and-drive. Michael Westberg's amazing win is the stuff of drag racing legend. There's so much to say, but we will just have to let the video do the talking.

    If I could, and i am sure that I am not the first to suggest this. Pick a certain et and mandate that either a diaper or belly pans be employed. While obviously that won't totally solve oil downs, I think that it would help save quite a bit of time and keep the racing moving along better.

    • @aSinisterKiid
      @aSinisterKiid 2 года назад +2

      They already mandate diaper/belly pans. And they already have classes for picking a certain et. (Dial Your Own, Pro DYO, And a Bullseye Challenge)
      From the rules for 2023 - All vehicles with an e.t. of 9.99 or less should have a fluid containment system (either a diaper or fluid containment pan) while on the race track.

    • @beekeeper6109
      @beekeeper6109 2 года назад +1

      It’s best to go to each event as the classes and the rules of each class can vary from event to event. You might run one class at RMRW or Mid West drags and it’s called something else or a different class at drag week or sick week. That being said there is almost always a class for everyone. The basics are, car must be registered and insured, only you and your copilot can work on the car, you must follow the route and drive to each track with no support (you carry what you can in your car or a single axel trailer) and they typically use NHRA certification rules.

    • @joeponder9668
      @joeponder9668 2 года назад

      Ok cool! Do you have to be NHRA certified? Also can the co-pilot share in on the racing or is the “driver” the only one who can race the car?

    all of those folks pouring scorn on Steve Morris for not wanting to use a 'conventional' drive shaft in his wagon so you can see awesomeness , check out at approx 16 minutes into this video and see what a 'conventional' drive shaft even with 'mild' power does when it has had enough.
    drive shaft loops are mighty fine but there is nothing to prevent the u-joints from calling it quits.
    here is a suggestion for next year not just your event but for all drag and drive events.
    i realize they are 'street' vehicles but safety is more important than ever especially in a litigious environment ......
    RWD/4WD vehicles use a carbon fibre drive shaft and utilize u-joints rated for 1000 hp greater than the engines capability and certified by an accredited certifyer similar to the cage cert.
    lastly on all vehicles no stock axles and also certified
    congrats to the winners , to all who completed the event not just the drivers but the co-driver , to all the support staff who had to stay until the last person left and then had to get to the next event before everyone else.
    lastly a tip of the hat to Tom Bailey and his crew.
