I remember going on the first Drag Week in 2005 and the young man with the 62 Tempest rode in a car seat in the back of his Dad's yellow GTO. Time flies
Was great being next door to you several times in the pits. I bet those otters ate all your fish too! Was weird seeing my car so many times on RUclips. Great meeting you guys as always.
I messed up big time my second time to a track at age 18, and my dad was with me. I rolled a bit past the start line and backed up. The light hit green and I popped the clutch and my chest hit the steering wheel. I hit the brake just in time to get stopped before hitting the car waiting behind me. The guys eyes were as big as a baseball! My dad brought that up at every gathering for the rest of his life... 😧 😎
Cool Rally, cool decal. You guys have a nice car, that's one bad little Pontiac. I'm considering keeping my '72 Olds 350 cubic inch Cutlass Cpe., ala natural. Got to get it running, needs a carburetor, new tires and a few other things, probably take a few grand to get it toad worthy. Thanks for sharing your happy times.
living your best life guys. you two are the real deal. love your channel and i have shared this with my drag racing friends over here in New Zealand so watch out for more subscribers from this side of the world. Goodluck for the rest of the week will be watching you chip away at those times.
I love these guys ! Great taste in cars,down to earth good people. Make an honest woman out of her bro ! I know a good one when I see her. Enjoy the rest of you journey . I can remember road trips like this with my wife ( then my girlfriend ) in my restored 66 VW camper over 30 yrs. ago when we were your age. Dosen't get any better.
Fantastic video!!! I'm loving this series! Great job of driving Olivia! Your car is running great! Low 13's is not bad at all! Some absolutely beautiful country in that area! So cool to see that River Otter! Hopefully Danny can hook a big one! Maybe try some Surf Perch fishing on the coast? I can't wait for the next one! Safe travels Guys!
I'm loving the channel.. Thanks for the great content. Just curious, how are your guys getting away with having a registration sticker from 1987 on your back plate??
Livy, you need scrub the finger grips on the back of your steering wheel. You got some serious scuzz growing on what probably is the bottom dash side of your wheel that you probably never even see🤯🤯🤯
everyone else: "we're here to race!" you: "we'll go down the track to see what the car will do, but we're going fishing & enjoying the whole thing!" I've bracket raced with the guy in the blue/white Vega you raced on the first pass, great guy/racer.
That looks awesome Rocky Mountain Race Week has awesome scenery too going through the Rocky mountains and Sick Week too has cool stops in Florida like Big Daddy Don Garlits drag racing museum and National parts Depot amazing car collection and that race happens in February when the rest of the east coast and many other places are freezing cold and with snow. Those are two awesome drag and drive events that you gotta check out
That 65 GTO is beautiful it's the perfect color I had a friend that had a 67 camaro that color and also a friend I worked with at the chevy dealership that had a 68 nova that color if I ever get my hands on a nova camaro or a chevelle I will paint it that color. I really want a 66 or 67 chevelle that color for along time now.
Congrats on solid strong street car runs ! To compare my old 68 GTO 400 auto on column with 2.93 Posi rear and benefits of ported #16 Pontiac heads on original 400 .030 stock stroke 406 and a 2500 12" stall on original TH400 and a street solid roller cam .566 lift (less after lash) with ported iron intake and QJet and iron HO exhaust manifolds on 225 70 14 Cooper Cobras on original Rally wheels wheels went 13.1@105 about 420 HP at flywheel estimated 93 octane in under 10:1
We just got back from a you tube content creators drag race event called the No Name Nationals and had a blast with my 66 Tempest, have fun and safe travels!
Many of those trucks come with big blocks. My uncle has a 1971 GMC truck that came factory with a 454. Many of the early 70's 2500 and 3500, 4x4 and suburban trucks came with big blocks from the factory because they were great towing engines and for offroad. I bet that big block is from the factory.
Buddy with the 70 Chevelle that has a diesal engine in it does lot's of Drag and Drive Events I have seen him at RMRW and Sick Week. Looks like he got a paint job since the last time I saw it unless it's not the same guy but I doubt there are two 1970 Chevelle around with Duramax Diesels. It was silver when I saw it last. I think it was Sick Week 2021 I think.
I saw that 62 tempest early in the video and thought hope they don’t blow that up. Those cars are one of my fav unknown gems. Haven’t had the space for one yet. Shhhh. Their weird. You don’t want one.
I had a '67 Tempest and '64 GTO. Fastest I ever went down the quarter was 14.0 @ 100 mph. She beat my time (with a column shifter no less). Sorry for the old man rant. 😊
You were rolling through the water, should have done a burnout, then tighten up the shocks to control hop, but you most likely Will get less 60ft. Times hooking if it has a tighter converter. Next track stop do a burnout.
Thanks This The Great Video & Channel ! I Have a Same Car Channel too , From Finland ! Have : American Car , Vintage Car , Truck , Muscle Car , Cruising ,... #Retired4You
Need to shift 3rd gear sooner 200/300rpm? Run lower air pressure 22/25lbs,? 20 haha why not ya. What's your reaction time? 104 can be in the mid 12 s with good launch.
All you Pontiac guys running the Chevy engines. So does it really make it a real Pontiac when it has a heart of a chevy? to me it don't it makes it a Chevy with a Pontiac badge just like the pontiacs that came from the factory with Chevy and Oldsmobile engines in them
please read your time slip in its intertie its not 13.6 it reads 13.61.1 and so on you would sound much more like you knew what you where doing. ask Dustin lee he will confirm, not knocking you friendly help.
I remember going on the first Drag Week in 2005 and the young man with the 62 Tempest rode in a car seat in the back of his Dad's yellow GTO. Time flies
solid first run. 13.40 is no joke. congrats.
Was great being next door to you several times in the pits. I bet those otters ate all your fish too! Was weird seeing my car so many times on RUclips. Great meeting you guys as always.
Great meeting you too! Seeya next year
You guys are awesome, I truly appreciate and enjoy watching everything you do in life together, ❤️ and that is what a true relationship is all about 😊
I’m so glad you said the time, other channels with make an hour long video and go to drag strip and NEVER tell the E.T. 13.6 is very good.
You guys are truly lovely.
*Stay real!* You’ll go a long way in YT by just being what you are.
Neat old Tempest, but waiting for more on the Nova gasser.
So cool y’all are taking the time to do this!! Awesome scenery 🙌. The Tempest is doing great, solid build. 👍
Your Tempest is my favorite RUclips car. I love your build. So happy for your excellent runs. I love everything about this video.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much!

Hello, really enjoy your vlogs.
Great passes at the track, and the road trip scenery was spectacular. Love the Tempest Liv, good luck.
Everything I know about a Tempest I learned from my cousin Vinny.
My Biological clock is ticking

good engines,i built a 350 olds for my jet boat. put a comp cam in it,they sound great. rpm intake n edelbrock carb was the ticket for me.
Cali gas prices are insane. I'm in Tennessee and just bought gas yesterday, 93 octane was $3.77.
Very pleased that you got the engine sorted and are getting good times at the track!
living your best life guys. you two are the real deal. love your channel and i have shared this with my drag racing friends over here in New Zealand so watch out for more subscribers from this side of the world. Goodluck for the rest of the week will be watching you chip away at those times.
Liv your such a bad ass keep livin the dream
Really enjoyed your video! Yall are having so much fun.
104 is dam good . your first time thats great
Olivia it’s hilarious that you never even blinked once after first gear until you started to turn off the track on the first run 😂🍻✌️
I love these guys ! Great taste in cars,down to earth good people. Make an honest woman out of her bro ! I know a good one when I see her. Enjoy the rest of you journey . I can remember road trips like this with my wife ( then my girlfriend ) in my restored 66 VW camper over 30 yrs. ago when we were your age. Dosen't get any better.
Good passes, glad nothing broke, i can't believe how high gas is, good luck next stop.
Great first pass, very impressive!
Outstanding Job Girl !!
Omg 😱!! I’m in Florida and we cry for $4.25 a gallon of premium #91 .. $6.69!! Holy crap.. btw awesome video..👍🏼
Totally cool! Thank you for sharing ❤️💯👍
Very cool ! Thanks for this lovely video
2:48 something about those Fairlane I like sooo much, I wish I could pinpoint what it is but they’re so special.
Its good to see Big Wave take on the C8 Corvette.
Fantastic video!!!
I'm loving this series!
Great job of driving Olivia!
Your car is running great! Low 13's is not bad at all!
Some absolutely beautiful country in that area!
So cool to see that River Otter!
Hopefully Danny can hook a big one!
Maybe try some Surf Perch fishing on the coast?
I can't wait for the next one!
Safe travels Guys!
❤ always a good time with you kids ❤️❤️
Great car nice pass, little more convertor and some drag radials be solid.
Not bad for putting it in D and flooring it
great driving , tempest sounds super , have fun and be safe ❤
Great job on your first pass!
Awesome guys ✌️
love you guys. Keep it up.
I'm loving the channel.. Thanks for the great content. Just curious, how are your guys getting away with having a registration sticker from 1987 on your back plate??
Gnarly! Alway injoy from Michigan!
Large variety of some cool cars.It`s better to be a little chilly than sweating hot.I`m jealous.
Livy, you need scrub the finger grips on the back of your steering wheel. You got some serious scuzz growing on what probably is the bottom dash side of your wheel that you probably never even see🤯🤯🤯
Too Cool! Push it harder, it'll take it!
Fun time. Glad to see you got some track time. It ran good. Try night crawlers on the next lake 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎
everyone else: "we're here to race!"
you: "we'll go down the track to see what the car will do, but we're going fishing & enjoying the whole thing!"
I've bracket raced with the guy in the blue/white Vega you raced on the first pass, great guy/racer.
Way to go Liv, nice driving. Gas in Seattle is $5.49 a gal for 87 octane.
This is what I've Ben eating to see great job
I put slicks on my car, uncapped it, went to the line, sent it and saw the sky, that caught my attention for sure
The otter spelled doom for you catching any fish, but ya gotta try anyway! 😊
That looks awesome Rocky Mountain Race Week has awesome scenery too going through the Rocky mountains and Sick Week too has cool stops in Florida like Big Daddy Don Garlits drag racing museum and National parts Depot amazing car collection and that race happens in February when the rest of the east coast and many other places are freezing cold and with snow.

Hey if you like pottery, stop by Morrow Bay/ Morrow rock on your way home, there's a bunch of them in the bay right now.

DANIEL SCAFITTI! Is that a cigarette I seen in your hand? You know the dangers and health conciquences that go with smoking, young man! 😊
Haha only smoke on when I drive on long road trips like this. Helps stay awake. That and a bunch of coffee ☕️

Shhhh.
Their weird. You don’t want one.
The slant 4 is long gone, had to go the modern route for drivetrain!
That's more than twice what it is here in New Zealand 😂. 🇳🇿
Man you dream a lot
Thought this was a drag and drive. What’s up with the car haulers?
First time out with the car and in the low 13's is real good to me. You are running street tires and cold tires since no burnout. Great job Liv!!
I had a '67 Tempest and '64 GTO. Fastest I ever went down the quarter was 14.0 @ 100 mph. She beat my time (with a column shifter no less). Sorry for the old man rant. 😊
I just filled up in NY state, 93-octane was $4.69
You were rolling through the water, should have done a burnout, then tighten up the shocks to control hop, but you most likely Will get less 60ft. Times hooking if it has a tighter converter. Next track stop do a burnout.
Lol cheaper for gas in Norcal. Socal its almost 7 bucks in some places.
My Pontiac has had a Kencor pac73 fishing rod in it for 35 years 🤣✊
You can thank your elected officials for that $6+ gasoline. I paid $3.89 for 93 yesterday and that's still too high.
Thanks This The Great Video & Channel !

So a 66 Fairlane,,, I say the FAIRLANE is the RIGHT lane not the wrong lane. Gentleman & women start your engines!

Technically Cadillac power 😉. But why not use the knowledge and technology that we have now days? The availability, price, and ease makes sense to do
