    Hoping you will do a similar video on the Chevy II. That is such an iconic car and the one I first saw Larry in at Drag Week.

    Dude Larry's like a mad scientist of race car building, and not to mention a drag racing ledgend.

    I remember when I was getting into drag racing about 5 yearsp ago and he had the s10 out at heartland park and let me and my buddy look all around the s10 because we were building and testing ours at the same time.
    Larry and his crew was full of hospitality and left me with a great memory that’s still with me today🤟

    Much respect for you Larry. I can't say that about a lot of the other guys in the industry these days.

    Uh oh Tom, sounds like Larry is throwing down a challenge! Love it! That would be freakin’ awesome!

    • @Tommyp65
      @Tommyp65 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Bailey won't go head to head with Larry even for time slips, Larry has too much competition experience both as a builder and racer. Besides, Bailey is getting a 55 nomad gasser built by Dennis Taylor for next year, more for show than go.

    • @danmyers9372

      @@Tommyp65 - Yeah, but he is rebuilding his fire damaged Pro Mod car and still has the original Sic Seconds Camaro. Lots of options!

    I went down to Indy in 15,was dissapointed Larry didn't race, planning on following dragweek year if its close to In. I went last year and had a blast,Thank's for posting Larry looking forward to 22 hope i can go see you race live.

    The wide 5 front wheels are really cool, the side pipe mufflers were a great idea to stay incognito.

    Was a dream come true getting to meet you at Epping last year when you brought the Caddie out for the first time. Been following Larry since the start of Drag Week. Super nice guy, took time out to take a picture with me even when he was getting ready to make a hit in the car...❤️

    Always been a fan of Larry and his cars. I've never had the chance to see them in person , so this tour of the S10 was really cool! The craftsmanship is amazing ! Would love to see a tour of the Chevy II....one of my all time favorite 66 Nova's that I feel I have grown up with.

    Thanks for sharing a brief history of your iconic S-10.
    It certainly shook up the drag week style fraternity so much that they had to change the rules to nobble you.
    Shame on them and major kudos to you for setting the "engineering" bar as high as you have.

  • @nitrofumes2012

    One of the few cars that can be changed up easily to drive on road and it’s not allowed in no prep as they want a more stock locking thing, what a joke. Love the engineering in this truck, great work on it

  • @corymagoffin8402
    @corymagoffin8402 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I went to Drag Week 2015 hoping to see this truck dominate - I was heartbroken to see Larry in the stands behind me on the Sunday night during test & tune. I would love to see you run DW again with it to do what it was built to do!

    @tonymorse7178 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would love to see the S-10 re-set the record and win Drag Week again. If Larry decides to do it, it will happen. Remember the trucks debut Drag Week? Had electrical gremlins, but ran a 5.95/244 at Vegas to "display it's capability". Do not underestimate Larry Larson.

  • @matthewvarnam4302
    @matthewvarnam4302 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Look forward to seeing it run a Drag and drive again, been gone too long. If you wish to continue racing your regular stuff, That certain someone (record holder) is organizing his own drag and drive. Even if youcan't get it setup for next year, the runs are planned for February timeframe, so you won't lose any schedule races
