You're SO Excited. I can't wait to see all the other passes. It's amazing how much everyone's helping each other on their cars. Great friendships with Cars❤️💪🏼👍🏻💯
It was awesome to see you make a pass after all yours and Aaron's hard work!!! So happy for you 2!!! Trust me when I say, EVERYONE went through the same thing you went through on your 1st pass down the strip!!! Looking forward to next few episodes.
Great job Emily! Your cute facial expressions are priceless. Brings back memories of making my first pass at Maple Grove Raceway with our Modified Production 62 Corvette back in 1972. Hope you make it back to Drag Week in 2020! Pedal to the metal young lady!
That very first true pass is the scariest because your nervous and excited at the same time, wait till you get that first good fast run in, man now that's a feeling you won't forget. Love you guys and all the get videos, Have a very safe and Happy 2020
Good work Emily!! You are so much fun to watch! I love the way you and Aaron work together. I have wanted a GTO like yours for a few years now, maybe one day, who knows... Love you guys and best of luck!!!
Nomex head sock ma. It’ll keep your hair up and if you catch fire it’ll keep your hair from singeing Ask me how I know P.S Once you get used to launching and cinch that 60 foot down I bet you’ll be in the 11s at least. The first pass I ever did was 13.78 and I felt just like you did! Giddy, hot, sweating, smiling ear to ear, I even gave the guys pitting next to us a random hug when I got back in- he totally went with it and I thank him for not making it awkward lol P.P.S Two step is a must! Also having two step in your car during high school is badass! You should see the look I get when one of the seniors with a Honda w/Fart can on it says let’s race/ I hit the two step and it’s popping and banging and flaming in their face 😂😂😂 And they’re like what did I just get myself in to 😂😂😂🇺🇸💕😮🎈😬
FSG, I love seeing you rookie at Drag week! Its not even the first full day and you already know how to do a proper burnout. I want to see you in the 10s. Aussie Chevelle Harry is my drag week hero, watching Newburn weld up the BOV pipe from behind a cold one!
I grew up 25-30 miles from Great Lakes Dragaway. When we went there we always got pit passes. I got to meet many of the greatest drag racers there. This video reminds of those days.
Go get em emily. You will get better and more relaxed every pass you make. Being a little nervous tends to make you react better. Sometimes to good as in red lighting but you will do great. God bless and be safe. Your awesome chick. Most importantly . Is just to have a great time
Drag racing rocks and Emily the very best part of drag racing is the learning part. Not only learning to race but your really going to learn alot about your car and Roxy sounds like shes real for the show. That is one really nice gto and its nice to have a cool bunch of folks to have a great weekend of racing and you guys look like you are having a blast. Nice run
Congrats Em's you did it! I've been waiting for this for sooooo long! Don't cha love the way everybody comes together to help and support each other both at the track and on the road? Good luck the rest of the week and I'll be waiting for each new installment! Gurls Rool, Boys Drool!
Epic videos Emily. It’s a tough shift ! But make no mistake noones watching the other cars you’re our main event and if it was easy we’d all be doing it . Awesome support and it’s goosebumps on the line for all of us 👌🏴
Thanks for zooming in on my dad in the beginning while he flicks his sunglasses down. Gonna make his day. Thanks guys. Great doing drag week with you guys
Great episode! Looking forward to the rest of them. I"m really going to try to do drag week in 2020 for the first time. I don't have anything special, and I'll be on a tight budget, but it should still be fun!
I love the excitement!!!! It looks like you're having so much fun!!! When you're making a pass, please remember to tighten your safety harnesses so they'll keep you secure if something bad happens.
That cold start on roxy sounds fuggin awesome !!! Can't wait to see more and follow along !! With is being Manuel you should look into a slipper clutch or a slipper solinoid setup for the clutch master to slave cylinder.
If you are having trouble reaching the shifter, move the seat forward or add a back pad. Foam compresses on acceleration. At least it is still in one piece....yaaaaaa
I was watching this on the livestream and saw this, was thinking you had broken something in the burnout, and were going easy on it in the actual pass to avoid more damages.. glad it was just nerves with all the new stuff. Practice, practice, practice Emily ! Haven't been to this track yet, but will try for next years event since it looks like so much fun !
Especially since it’s a newer engine and they can set the rev limiter right where they want it, and just never lift. They can also put a ignition kill switch on the clutch to kill the spark for a micro second for shifting and again just keep her right foot pinned to the floor.
Heck yeah first pass at 12.90! That doesn't sounds like much, but it was a safe pass, nothing broke and that's what matters. Roxy sounds absolutely badass and is runnin' like a champ. Now go out there and get after it, girl!
I’m so happy for you guys. You fulfilled your dream and it was great seeing you do it step-by-step. You and Aaron have shared the most interesting moments on what it takes to go to drag week. I was nervous with you. It felt like I was in the seat racing at the track for my first time.
Every time I get to the line I'm so nervous. Forget everything I'm supposed to do then once I get to the end I'm ready to go again. I ran an active interchiller on my car. It can idle and make back to back passes all day.
Oh wow! You did half my bucket list in one day! Making a pass in a blown Monaro (Aussie), hanging out with Newbern, Cotten, Harry and Stevo. Watched Blasphemi make a pass. Oh, yeah, then I got schooled by Tom Bailey... Thank you so much for sharing.
Watching the nerves of your first pass is amazing. Everyone has been there. Can't wait to see how much better you got through drag week.
Violet's first "in Daddy's lap, hot rod episode"........good job guys! Roxy has a new, new fan!!!!!!!!!
and Kaylie just said....."why did you put that in quotations?" My response...."was i not supposed to?"
WE LOVE THIS!!!!
You're SO Excited. I can't wait to see all the other passes. It's amazing how much everyone's helping each other on their cars. Great friendships with Cars❤️💪🏼👍🏻💯
I can feel your excitement through my screen. You're going to do great!
It was awesome to see you make a pass after all yours and Aaron's hard work!!! So happy for you 2!!! Trust me when I say, EVERYONE went through the same thing you went through on your 1st pass down the strip!!! Looking forward to next few episodes.
YAY I've been waiting for these. Love the sound of that rev-limiter. GOOD JOB, Ma'am!!
Great job Emily! Your cute facial expressions are priceless. Brings back memories of making my first pass at Maple Grove Raceway with our Modified Production 62 Corvette back in 1972. Hope you make it back to Drag Week in 2020! Pedal to the metal young lady!

Finnegan's Garage Thanks Fin, we love ya buddy. What a blast we had- YOU WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!
em geeking out after the first ever pass is the best part!
It’s fun watching you have fun! You’ll get all the details nailed down!
That is what I like about the event is the support between everyone. I hope you can get to do this years one.
That very first true pass is the scariest because your nervous and excited at the same time, wait till you get that first good fast run in, man now that's a feeling you won't forget. Love you guys and all the get videos, Have a very safe and Happy 2020

Butterflies flew out the window going down the track 🏎
I love watching you geek out. It's great that you have so much fun. That's the way its suppose to be.
Well done Emily , all that hard work and late nights in the shop paid off , Roxy is awesome now ..Bob in Ozz

Ask me how I know

The smile on your face said it all, that was awesome first run.

That is so cool to see how excited both you and Aaron are for the first day. Congratulations on the first pass with this set-up.
Epic videos Emily. It’s a tough shift ! But make no mistake noones watching the other cars you’re our main event and if it was easy we’d all be doing it . Awesome support and it’s goosebumps on the line for all of us 👌🏴
You really shoved with your smile how fun you had! You go girl!!!
Emily, I love the enthusiasm and I know e exactly how you feel doing your first hit. My nerves had me jumping out of my skin. Keep it up girl !😎
Thanks for zooming in on my dad in the beginning while he flicks his sunglasses down. Gonna make his day. Thanks guys. Great doing drag week with you guys
John LaCascia Hahaha!!! Your dad was awesome, that cracked me up!! See y’all this year!!
Mom watched the episode and said that was FREAKIN' AWESOME!
Travis Plumer I love your momma!!
Great episode! Looking forward to the rest of them. I"m really going to try to do drag week in 2020 for the first time. I don't have anything special, and I'll be on a tight budget, but it should still be fun!
Drag Week was epic! So cool to see how the week began. Looking forward to the Day 1 video.
I love that you're running a manual trans. Might be tougher to do, but hearing it go down the track is awesome. MUCH RESPECT! Be safe!
I love how your accent got more southern the more excited you got 😀. Excellent video
Amazing run ever since I started watching you I love you videos awesome job
Girl, you are amazing and definitely a heck of a role model. Way to go! Your nerves got ya a bit, but you are kicking so much ass! ❤️❤️
Aaron is the coolest nerd on this channel....... Oh and Emily is the cutest dork of Flying Sparks Garage.
GOOBER.
I love the excitement!!!! It looks like you're having so much fun!!!
When you're making a pass, please remember to tighten your safety harnesses so they'll keep you secure if something bad happens.
I'll bet you even slept with that big smile on your face! Looking forward to seeing the next passes! Great job, Emily!
Mike Pawloski It was SO HARD to go to sleep on DW even though we were exhausted!!
great episode ! looking forward to the rest ! good luck you two !!!
That cold start on roxy sounds fuggin awesome !!! Can't wait to see more and follow along !! With is being Manuel you should look into a slipper clutch or a slipper solinoid setup for the clutch master to slave cylinder.
LOL 4:42 the welders nod, but with sunglasses.
Damn, looks like you’re having a helleva time!!! Too much fun and faint fails...👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
If you are having trouble reaching the shifter, move the seat forward or add a back pad. Foam compresses on acceleration. At least it is still in one piece....yaaaaaa
Wow she sounds very nice...best sounding GTO that I have heard in a while.
That was a great first time newby run. Lot to learn but you said it best.....it's hookable fun. You'll get there.
Love the belt buckle! Well everything else too but just noticed that and wanted to say it looks really cool!
Love your energy, you did awesome😃 I was watching Finnegan’s channel and thought I saw your car in the background👍
YOU GOT HER DONE GIRL
I knew it was on when you launched! Your eyes were wide open like saucers and you had race face happening!!!😀👍😁🚗💨🤘
Why people give dislike? She is so excited to run her car, I guess many people are unhappy with their life.
Either unhappy with their life or can't drive as good as her.
12.9 first time down the track!! Great job!
One of the best episodes I’ve seen yet! Can’t wait for the next dragweek episode
Way to go Emily, I'm sure you'll get better and better. You got a great set-up. Remember the small details they add up to Big details.
I've have said that is the most exciting fun you can have with your clothes on. Good job great fun.
I can't stop smiling watching this :) Way to go Emily & Aaron
Gasser's are just plain Awesome!
I was watching this on the livestream and saw this, was thinking you had broken something in the burnout, and were going easy on it in the actual pass to avoid more damages.. glad it was just nerves with all the new stuff. Practice, practice, practice Emily ! Haven't been to this track yet, but will try for next years event since it looks like so much fun !
As you get comfortable with it you’ll improve. I race a 4 speed car, quick tip. If you don’t lift when you shift you will pick up a lot on you ET.
Especially since it’s a newer engine and they can set the rev limiter right where they want it, and just never lift. They can also put a ignition kill switch on the clutch to kill the spark for a micro second for shifting and again just keep her right foot pinned to the floor.
Remember that's a stock gearbox, not a built trans.
I'd agree if it was a race box.
Done it with stock toploaders for years
Heck yeah first pass at 12.90! That doesn't sounds like much, but it was a safe pass, nothing broke and that's what matters. Roxy sounds absolutely badass and is runnin' like a champ.
Now go out there and get after it, girl!
I’m so happy for you guys. You fulfilled your dream and it was great seeing you do it step-by-step. You and Aaron have shared the most interesting moments on what it takes to go to drag week. I was nervous with you. It felt like I was in the seat racing at the track for my first time.
Awesome episode! Can't wait to see the future drag week episodes!
Top fuel is in your future..... Nice job for the first run...
Roxys doing good and sounds amazing
Thanks for sharing
Sounds awesome, good job guys. Be safe. Peace.🇺🇸
you will be flying because you are awesome
All the best get it done cheers
Be careful and have fun I love it when people have a smile on there face and enjoy what they do your doing great girl peace out 😎👌👍
YES! I've been waiting soooo long for this.
That is so awesome. Got to get them nerves out on that first pass.
Can you make a video explaining how you use the 2 step in coordination with the clutch. Like break down your process
Maybe more like 12 psi in those slicks!
I love watching you enjoy what I love! Your smile is infectious.
Every time I get to the line I'm so nervous. Forget everything I'm supposed to do then once I get to the end I'm ready to go again. I ran an active interchiller on my car. It can idle and make back to back passes all day.
Hell yeah, love seeing another texas goat rippin it
Oh wow! You did half my bucket list in one day! Making a pass in a blown Monaro (Aussie), hanging out with Newbern, Cotten, Harry and Stevo. Watched Blasphemi make a pass. Oh, yeah, then I got schooled by Tom Bailey... Thank you so much for sharing.
Roxy is FLYIN'!

Line lock and two step.... yeah babe!!!
