Putting a DONE Stamp on Sick Week 2024! - Day 5

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Thanks to @summitracing for being a partner this Sick Week! The new engine was built with a lot of off the shelf parts from Summit
www.summitracing.com
Wrapping up Sick Week 2024. It was a long hard week. We started off running our best ET on Monday. We fought to get through the week and found unexpected problems all week. But we did it and took some new hardware! Check it out her.

    I can’t think of enough positive words to say about this young lady. Super talented, smart, funny, etc. I hope her parents tell her often how proud they are, and Alex should tell them the same thing. I’ll say it every time I post a comment, well done mom & dad. Nothing like watching a beast of a woman in a man dominated sport.

Best wishes to her and her racing family- and thanks to the production crew for making these videos great. Being a fan and long time sus there is nothing better to see the success and style of Alex and her Dad- plus l think you learn more about mechanical, shop life, race wisdom, and general feel for the lifestyle of everyone involved. Thanks- good luck! Always looking forward to the next video!

You both made some excellent runs. You and your dad worked your butts off all week. Wow. That's some serious dedication. You both deserve a long vacation.
