Preserving My 2002 IHRA Championship Dragster (Not a Restoration)

Описание: This episode documents the preservation of my 2002 IHRA Championship-winning Top Fuel dragster as we begin reassembly after powder coating. This is not a restoration—it’s a preservation of a championship race car.
If you’ve been following along, you’ve already seen me rescue two of my IHRA Championship-winning dragsters and tear down my 2002 championship car—a car that won a lot of races and played a major role in my career.
In this episode, we pick the car up from powder coating and begin the reassembly process. Along the way, something hit me.
This is not a restoration.
This is a preservation.
This car is a piece of history—from my history—and it deserves to be treated that way.
Before filming, I asked for questions on my social media accounts. During the reassembly, I stop to answer many of them. Some answers turn into longer, more detailed explanations and bring back stories from this car’s racing days—stories I haven’t told in a long time.
This episode is part reassembly, part Q&A, and part storytelling, all focused on preserving an important championship dragster the as it was.
Some of the answers may raise more questions—and that’s part of the fun.
Thanks for following along. Drop your questions and thoughts in the comments.
