    Im a few minutes in. Just wanted to say I usually dont have the attention span for this kind of content but when last weeks video dropped I found myself watching it in its entirety and will probably do the same with this one. Youre a hell of an orator, your delivery is on point and your genuine passion for the hobby is infectious. Cant wait to see what else you have in store for us dude

      I am merely leaving this comment on this video because it is in my head currently...this was a cool video but not the best by any stretch...but can we all seriously appreciate we are watching an absolute legend in the motorsports community with Freiburger? If there is ever to be a Mt Rushmore for us car guys he has got to be on it without a doubt...thank you David!

    Thank you for posting this! I've been saying for years there needs to be more of this type of content. The road stories about & from the racers are the best part. Only one third of Drag Week is probably what's on track. The rest of it is more of a human interest story, a battle of survival & perseverance.

    @GeekGinger 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I fully enjoyed the live streams. A good job was done by all! Leaving the lanes open until the announced time on the last day is the only fair way to do it. Yes, it results in lots of dead air but when racers are operating under given rules you can't pull the rug out from under them.
