I walked up to you right after you signed his paperwork and asked you if you just purchased something that was going to piss your wife off. You had the happiest look on your face and this glazed look in your eyes and explained it was for his license. You were definitely having a great time!
Great story on the drag car...you could tell that meant alot to that father to have the car back and see his boys run it. Your a helluva guy finnegan. Thats why we all watch your channel thanks for all you do
That father knows how lucky he is to have sons that care about him. Alot of us would give anything to have that kind of love for another human being. 🇺🇸👍🏼
Dude, what a great pro racer. Doesn't think too highly of himself to make some incredible memories with his fans! I wish more builders did that. Your dad would be very proud Finnegan!
Thank you soo much Mike! We will definitely be back next year with the chevelle again and I will bring my own 67 that suits the duct tape drags a little better as well ☺️ I just uploaded the Christmas unveiling video on my TH-cam channel if you guys want to see our dad cry some more 🥲
19:08 - the 'thunk' when the door closes telling us how much Steel there is in that body, then the starter motor fighting against the compression,... and that noise when it starts, that's what a big block is supposed to sound like. And having a great story, for a racing family, this is what real drag racing is all about.
Mike, you and all the FSM and RK folks do a great job providing awesome content. You all seem like solid down-to-earth people. Props to all the significant others that support all your wild antics!
Incredible back story on car and kid. Dad was so proud. Total honor for them to have you sign and for you to have them search you out for your approval. Dude,I almost teared up.
Great video! Nice to see you take time out of your night to help the kid with his license! Shows again what kind of guy you are..👍 Keep up the great work/videos. 🇨🇦🏁
I just love seeing this kind of content! It takes me back to the early 00's at Atco raceway. We had something called high school night where you could run whatever you had as long as you paid the track fee. If you didn't have a helmet you could rent one. Good times, the best times.
Thats our car 😀 unbelievable!!! I am very happy about that story the car place is on the road everything is till now original painting chassis only new German engine 😀 Jan Zimmermann from Oastfrisia team made everything with his friend Jens and his wife said: don,t change the painting of the car The story of this DragRacer is very long and interesting....... Big greeting from Garmny.....so man I'm so ... happy
I was there on Saturday, good times. I under estimated how many cars and people would attend, no same day racing entry. Did get to see the Chevelle and Mr Frieburger at the wheel of his 32 in the pits. Many way kool hot rods and folks. Cheers !
@@gsppuffer we did t know they were famous! Did t start watching there shows till after when we seen them on different shows . no longer working together. We now have have the app and the channel on our hulu Tv. Fantastic shows. Dulchich's And freiberger make a good team. We need something signed by them badly for the shack !!
Brother!!! Is that not every father dream?!?! There kids driving and racing there long lost hot rod!!! 🤩 super special moment for you and the family!!!
Brother! I just got my first “unit” at nearly 40. 600hp bmw 550i GT. Still building on my 89 k1500 for anything and everything kinda rig. Def wish I could race more often in any class but life jams things up usually.
Would love one day to make it out to one of these and meet and chat with ya Finnegan. Seems like it would be a real fun time. Keep up the great work and enjoying "the best at work ever"
Looks like an amazing event, hopefully I can make it next year, Cummins just wasn't ready this year but hopefully she will be ready with compounds and radials next year!
Thanks so much for getting my z on your page it means so much to me I’ll have it a lot faster next year should have done a couple test runs before that run lol
That looks like a lot of fun. Spent three weeks in the campground in November last year. Going to have to see what they have going on this year. Have to talk my friend that lives in Green Valley into buy a junker from one of the wrecking yards and building a burnout car on the cheap. 🤣🤣
I can see a slightly irritated Frieburger anywhere and the vice grip burnout was epic but covered by his channel (because car TH-cam is collapsing on itself) BUT the twins story about buying their dad’s car back was amazing- thanks for sharing that.
The story behind the drag car coming back from Germany and you signing his license stuff was awesome.
If that guys brother gets his license too, Finn should try and sign off on him as well should they meet up. Complete the set. :P
That's the stuff dreams are made of congrats
And this is why Finnegan is a true badass and all around great guy and car guy!!!!
That was some of the coolest ish I've ever seen.
Agree 100%
I walked up to you right after you signed his paperwork and asked you if you just purchased something that was going to piss your wife off. You had the happiest look on your face and this glazed look in your eyes and explained it was for his license. You were definitely having a great time!
Thanks 👍😊 so much for the comment I'm so proud of these boys!
Hanging out to sign off on his comp license..you have restored my faith in humanity.
Good to see Elana! I miss seeing her in some of the Roadkill stuff from time to time.
Great story on the drag car...you could tell that meant alot to that father to have the car back and see his boys run it. Your a helluva guy finnegan. Thats why we all watch your channel thanks for all you do

The look on Newberns face when you said splitting up looked like a sad little girl. Lol. We love Newbern.
Thank you soo much Mike! We will definitely be back next year with the chevelle again and I will bring my own 67 that suits the duct tape drags a little better as well ☺️ I just uploaded the Christmas unveiling video on my TH-cam channel if you guys want to see our dad cry some more 🥲
Your dad had me crying too. I am pumped for you!!!!
I am the proudest dad ever! I cry every time I see this dream come true you boys are amazing for your efforts in everything you do! Love you dad...
The car is beautiful and the story is awesome! And getting Finnegan to sign that licence was a cool move!

Always cool to see a driver get his competition license! Awesome of you sign off on it Mike!!!
The Twins story is awesome, what a great legacy car and proud father.
Thanks for doing what you do mike. That was good of you to sign off on that young man’s license!
That was a beautiful 1967 Chevy Chevelle !!! I sure miss mine. Thank you Mike for all of your great vids.
Ah, the Jan Zimmerman Chevelle being there makes sense now! Loved seeing that car race at Santa Pod

Great content helping the young bloke out with his licence. You truly are a champion Mike.☝️🤘👏🤜🤛👍🤙💯👋👌
That was freakin awesome signing off on that license. Great car that has stood the test of time. Cool family too!👌🏻
Reminds me of Tom Bailey at Drag Week this year, not participating but just relaxing, enjoying the down time, and meeting some people.
Awesome that you signed off on his license, I bet he will never forget that act of kindness Finn!
What a great story on that Chevelle! That car is sick!
I scrutinized that car several times here in The Netherlands... Awesome to see this....
Still crazy to us it’s been all over racing in so many places!
Best youtube story ever, went to Germany raced and made it back in one piece!!! And now the og builder has it back. Epic!!!!
I'm from the area in germany and totally amazed to see those decals. First thought I was going nuts.
That little pice of history was badass looked fun out there great video
That was awesome of you to sign off on that young man's License. Not many people like you left anymore who would take the time to do that.
Dude, that Zimmerman car deal was great 👍🏻 Wonderful story! Glad you did what you did, we need more people like this in America. Help thy neighbor!
I just love seeing this kind of content! It takes me back to the early 00's at Atco raceway. We had something called high school night where you could run whatever you had as long as you paid the track fee. If you didn't have a helmet you could rent one. Good times, the best times.
Beautiful Chevelle, and awesome story!
That story with the dad and his two boys was awesome!
Dude, the car from germany coming back for christmas! Hell yeah.
That was one happy dad right there! Great story with the Finnigans sig on his license makes it an even better story!!

Man the dad with the twin boys was the story's I live for in hot rodding
Very cool to see a story like that
Mike that is so awesome you are a real good guy!!

It's crazy to think that a car you built could be sold off and makes it's way to another continent and find it's way home again.
Still unbelievable for us 👍🏼
What an awesome story and what an honor. Badassed car too
Oh that yellow Mach 1 - great car!
You just made a fan. 30 years from now, that young man will be telling of the day that Mike Finnegan signed his license!
Excellent! Way cool, especially the '66 Chevelle story! Love your vids Finnegan.
Pretty cool you signed his license paperwork! Best autograph ever
That was awesome that you signed that young mans paperwork for his license.
What a Honor for you. What a beautiful Chevelle.
Thats our car 😀 unbelievable!!!
I am very happy about that story the car place is on the road

Jan Zimmermann from Oastfrisia team made everything with his friend Jens and his wife said: don,t change the painting of the car
The story of this DragRacer is very long and interesting.......
Big greeting from Garmny.....so man I'm so ... happy
The paint job will always be with this car. I painted it years and years ago very unique love it.... That's how Ken Kyle found it on tube!!!
I appreciate that extra work you bunch of people put in so much, thanks a lot for the bts coverage :)
I would love to see more content like this
You da man Finnegan! You make me keep my faith in humanity!
The sound of a turbo always puts a smile on my face. 11:20. Also I feel that my rattlebomb LS swapped 95 Impreza would fit in nicely hear.
I was there on Saturday, good times. I under estimated how many cars and people would attend, no same day racing entry. Did get to see the Chevelle and Mr Frieburger at the wheel of his 32 in the pits. Many way kool hot rods and folks. Cheers !
Love this man.. you were so nice to those people!
Finn, love the channel and content. Appreciate you and Newbern.
My husband and I stopped and helped you guys a while back when you were broke down.
Lol

Brother!!! Is that not every father dream?!?! There kids driving and racing there long lost hot rod!!! 🤩 super special moment for you and the family!!!
Thanks 👍.. I'll be racing a 1980 Corvette 406 sb at route 66 drag's next weekend.
Brother! I just got my first “unit” at nearly 40. 600hp bmw 550i GT. Still building on my 89 k1500 for anything and everything kinda rig. Def wish I could race more often in any class but life jams things up usually.
I am glad to see "Challengeher" is there. Thanks for including her, she kind of gets overlooked.
Awsome job helping that family out and getting that young man his license and hopefully will sometime somewhere do the same for his twin brother
Props to the guy running the TRX-4
Loved seeing the Vice Grip Garage burnout. I just watched his video about the drags last night!
Good job on keeping drag racing alive
Man that was so cool of you to sign his license. I think you were more blown away by the story of the car.
One of the best oem steering wheels ever...Trans Am!
Great that you got to be part of the sport going ahead 👍
thats a badass story like hearing stuff like that...
That was cool that you signed his license..
Thanks for the shout out. Sucks I didn't get to see that blanket in person.
Would love one day to make it out to one of these and meet and chat with ya Finnegan. Seems like it would be a real fun time.
Keep up the great work and enjoying "the best at work ever"
Mike you rock! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace
Looks like an amazing event, hopefully I can make it next year, Cummins just wasn't ready this year but hopefully she will be ready with compounds and radials next year!

That looks like a lot of fun. Spent three weeks in the campground in November last year. Going to have to see what they have going on this year. Have to talk my friend that lives in Green Valley into buy a junker from one of the wrecking yards and building a burnout car on the cheap. 🤣🤣

Lucky in the back!!! Shout out!!!
I can see a slightly irritated Frieburger anywhere and the vice grip burnout was epic but covered by his channel (because car TH-cam is collapsing on itself) BUT the twins story about buying their dad’s car back was amazing- thanks for sharing that.
