Drag racing

drag race.

Instead of going and going drag racing 101 and having to read a thousand-page book on it, you go to Matt and you go to Leah and you get the Cliff Notes version of it.

You read 25 pages, you know all the stuff you're supposed to focus on, and you disregard all the BS that you don't really need to focus on right away.

We've got to introduce Matt.

I told everybody, I was like, I'm here now, you know, you can't miss me coming through.

His

biceps in drag racing.

Tight shirts is all it is, man.

And your mom gets remarried, moves to San Diego, asks you to move to San Diego.

And then, very coincidentally, nothing to do with drag racing, just a car crashes into you on a bike and fucks you up, breaks your legs.

We're talking about six months of rehab.

Right.

We have a new

record in drag racing.

Was it a funny car or was it just a dragster? The dragsters

are faster.

Oh,

I don't know where this happened.

Some drag racing

state.

awesome.

So what else have you been up to, Kenny? Well, we went drag racing.

Hell, yeah.

Did you

And the

scene's not like it was, because you think about, like, back then, Drag Race was just picking up, and there was no other Drag Races, so it was, like, really an event to go out and watch Drag Race, and, like...

And then everyone would have to hear about how Tina auditioned again.

She didn't get on.

It'll be in the Lower South Hall.

I'm guessing SimpleTire.com will have an expansive hospitality suite on the same over-the-top level that Rick Ware's racing team has at drag racing events.

And if so, the question will be, will there be a life-size cardboard cutout of Rob Kibbe to greet showgoers into the tent?

No. No? No.

These days, this never happens.

But yeah, I was drag racing since I was 18.

Wow.

And how did you get from doing that to Mitsubishi cars? Or did you kind of start out in Mitsubishi cars?

So 350 horsepower until I blew the engine up.

But my dream car was a Mitsubishi Evo 9, but back in the days, they were so expensive, like really expensive.

I'm from Bucharest, so in Bucharest, only one guy was drag racing, but he was so fast, nobody could beat it.

And I was like, you know, when you have that iconic car in your head and you always want it, that was my first dream car.

Yeah, that was something new, a new endeavor that a year ago fell in my lap.

I have some good friends that have created a nitrous division in NHRA drag racing.

Okay.

And they, he took me to my very first drag race, which is super intense.

I had a Ford Falcon in high school.

I used to weld and work on that car all the time.

Those guys came to me and said, hey, these guys are starting a new circuit for drag racing and they're interested in you being a driver.

Are you interested? And I said, well, man, I'd like to try that.

happiness.

You pull down a lot of drag racing, Biosh, when you win.

Go ahead, Cassidy.

Hi, my daughter turned one this weekend.
