Race Season is Officially Underway! - Testing the 55 for Sick Week
Thanks to Mickey Thompson Tires for having us out to test for a few days in Orlando!
We are kicking off race season early in Florida, testing for Sick Week which is happening January 28 - February 2. The 55 did really good on day 1 and the new motor seems very happy. Check out how it's going and get ready for more testing in the next video, then it's time for a week of racing!

Don't forget about the plastic DEF tanks. Most plastic resin comes from overseas. The 6 largest cargo ships pollute more than all vehicles on the planet combined. This country is just pissing in the wind when it comes to DEF systems.
Fill up the def at truck stops, way cheaper at the pump than the box
Alex, you nailed the problem when you explained that you didn't remember shifting, you just instinctively did what you were supposed to do. You remind me of my daughter; she works in a hospital, and her coworkers say she is fantastic in an unexpected crisis. But if she has time to overthink, she stresses out. You are one of the best natural drivers I've ever seen. DON'T OVERTHINK IT!!You let your muscles do what you've trained them to do, and just let your brain enjoy the ride. If you aren't having fun, it isn't worth doing.
As a father of two grown daughters, I really enjoy seeing you and your dad at the track working together. Great video!!!
Living the dream
Beautiful Nova, but then I’m partial to Nova’s
Considering that most of the world doesn't use DEF/AdBlue in treating diesel exhausts, it must be just another money maker for the big 6 oil companies. Real pleased my truck doesn't use it as an additional expense.
Have fun. Hope you have a great sick week
Your dad is so cool.what a legend👍👍
Dennis living the dream, new to him truck and a new to him schwinn bicycle.
Taking Steve to school? In the passenger's seat? Love it,,, love all of you and have a great time!!!
Hello Alex yes i agree coffee in the porta pouty is gorse
Alex I found out the other day. My oldest Daughter Alexsis is 7 days older than you. Super crazy for me being a fan! Just found out our local 1/8th track is opening back up this year in Upstate NY. I've recently found myself as a newly disabled guy and I'm building a car. That is completely functional to race. Without use of legs. It won't keep up with You and Steve. However will be a blast!! Good Luck on Sick Week 🤘🤘
Portables are for percolating a different kind of brew!!! Keep positive and long live Mickey Thompson and Isky!!!
IT'S SOOO FUNNY ALEX 😂 SEEING YOUR TWO FRIENDS POINTING CAMERAS AT YOU LIKE THEY ARE STAR STRUCK FANS! So cool seeing your Dad all proud of his new rig and polishing it up all shiney. It's good to see your Dad hanging out with you and supporting each other's hobbies! He really is an amazing 🤩 Father! Good luck 🤞 and thanks for another amazing video 📸.

Race car engines make the only sound that I can smell. Looking forward to Sick Week more than ever before. Have fun and be safe.
Steve is gonna have to up his game if he's gonna get close to those light cuts. As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Good luck kick butt.

I feel like that duck is tenacious. A Tenacious D, if you will.
Alex, you have to understand one of mens' best forms of multitasking when it comes to coffee. We are effectively killing two birds with one stone when are doing both in the same spot. 🤣
It’s easier to drive though the 18 wheeler side of the truck stop to fill up with def and get fuel
So glad for your success, good luck at sick week !
Youse are really good. Very entertaining. Thanks everyone.
Car moves out like Larry Larson old nova seen it at the old kcir before they closed in person before turbo boost and nitrous become the first mod on everyones car hope your family have safe blessed year
Loving Dad's "Edison's Medicine" reference!!!! Tesla is such an underrated band!

Ya'll are into some deeper happiness this year. No stress? Just glowing, nice.
The inside of the car shot when you left the line first time was awesome! I bet it brought back all your memories from previous passes...all at once!
🎉🎉 SHOUT-OUT NOLEN YOU ARE 👍
GOOD TO SEE THE 55 RUN
I just subscribed to your channel, really enjoyed you testing your 55 , sounds super strong ❤❤
I liked the editing starting around the 9:20 mark. Piecing together the different camera shots of that burnout and run was really well done.
You , your team and the 55 rock, all the best to yall 🤘🤘
Alex, after your valiant attempt to 'direct' the last scene, you are now adequately qualified to herd cats.
I love u always be with your dad racing
you are so deceptively sweet to be such a badass driver! I cant wait to see you kickin ass!
M/T rules!
I’m with Nick on the coffee fiasco, party everywhere. Lol
Good luck Alex and crew!

Hi Alex I can't do tele thing no money yet
One of the most fun videos you’ve done. Thanks!
Loving this rivalry with Steve. Nice to see y’all having a bit of extra fun. Keep it up. You got him off the line but I feel like he’s going to make you work a lot harder for the 1/4 mile this year.
Alex, to prove a point to Steve! you should drive his wagon, and he should drive your 55, the ultimate truth is who is the better time leaver, that will solve any doubt.
Peak DEF... Good on ya', help pay for old man Force's next CNC F/C part...
If my diesel wasn't under the warranty I would definitely get it off the DEF
Love it, good luck kick the boy's butt!! Love the Channel keep up the Amazing Work and Good luck !!!!
I believe and have faith in you this race season Alex and the 55 is SICK LOVE IT! ❤❤😊
Man it is good to see everyone happy and cutting up :) most times y’all have been under the crunch … I hope one day I get to see y’all racing in person !! Take care and good luck y’all !!
Good luck this week!
Ok, Steve might be in trouble 😂. great first launch!
practices on the button got to have a good race between you and Steve

The dentist will love Morticia and her crew after all them sweets!
Looks like you’re more prepared than you have ever been for sick week. I got a good feeling go get them Alex.
Steve on your seat😂,i don't have to tell you guys to have fun...you got that covered lol
Question, do you like to party? Had me howling hahaha
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate that you’re sharing your information and thoughts.😀
The most impressive thing of this video is how much her dad cares about her safety. From making sure he belts are tight to putting the net up, I worked on some formula Mazda cars, and the importance of knowing you do everything right as you help the driver get buckled in and knowing their lives are in your hands if you forgot something. Also did 25 years as a dirt late model crew cheif
You people are the very best. Love and peace to you folks .
Its tall, but he likes it, that's all that really matter's, He like's it. YEP , be safe.
My God it's so good to see you back in your 55 !
Great video ! The 55 is looking good , and you are having fun. Dennis's new truck looks awesome washed and cleaned. Looking forward to more testing videos and Sick Week. Thanks.
sounds great can't wait to see your runs
You have an awesome team. I had that rearview mirror on my first truck in 1989! Love the content. Best of luck on Sick Week!
Excellent video blog.
I really thought that was Steve sitting in the car with you, haha!!
Let's Go Alex!!! 💯💪🏽💯
Looking forward to your channel highlights! Too bad it went PPV already. Best luck!
Can't let it get cold

Wishing you good luck this week Alex you will rock it and best racer and unbelievable person and always the warrior and incredible 😊❤❤❤❤
Watching your dad, it's easy to see how/why you've grown into a confident, self-reliant, no-drama woman. It's obvious he loves all 3 of his kids, isn't afraid to show it & relished every minute he gets to spend w/ you doing his favorite thing in the world. No tension, no shortage of patience, supportive & perfectly balanced between instructive & self-exploration in his teaching/mentoring/fathering. Having come from an era when you never heard support, always demands, never heard good job, only glad you didn't eff up, again & if you were lucky, you found out they DID love you... in their last mortal moments. I, personally, never heard it. Revel in how fortunate you are, Alex, your dad's behaviour isn't ubiquitous, even today. My vote for Dad of the year, no, decade, nope... Century is Dennis Taylor. Best to you & yours, love, support & tell each other how you feel; it goes by fast, trust me. I'm officially 'ancient', as of 2023, and it was just last week I was building/racing my pride & joy '57 Tudor wagon; the height of familial support in my passion, was... Well, you're an adult, earn your own way & can waste your time & money however you choose. Never, NEVER, did I come home from a short or long race trip & hear, "How'd you do?" Whether my pockets were stuffed w/ $, which just 'might' cover expenses & carrying a big-azz trophy, or curushed & defeated, hundreds of $ short, never one word of support or you'll get 'em next time. I should have been used to it, but even as an ancient son, w/ grandkids of my own; even today, there's still an inner hope they were proud of my list of life accomplishments. (Aw, eff, who am I kidding?) Perhaps, w/o their soul crushing negativity, I wouldn't have accomplished half. Count your blessings in a myriad of ways. GeoD

Great content thanks for sharing
19:20 perfect opportunity for a Max-9 pun 😂
1"17 for the 3rd test but remember you carry extra weight with Steve on board in the passenger seat...I'm quite sure this is the only available explanation! 😁
Looks good that’s a killer light you cut. You didn’t say how’s it pulling. I see good tire tracks. Good luck good fast and your already pretty
Steve's my hometown guy. Please try not to embarrass him too bad 😂
Go Alex!
I buy the DEF on the highway at the truck stop, it’s cheaper and no wasteful packaging.
010 reaction nice
Awesomeness Alex
Good luck
